Day's Journal entry:
So
there's storms coming here....like directly towards our place....and
I'm home alone with the kids. Freaky. Anyways I've been doing great
with my intake ( compared to usually ) and I've been pot free for over
24 hours! It sucked sleeping though. I had to sleep in cause half the
night I was up sweating and trying to get comfortable. So yeah, I broke
a rule of my challenge. Fuck it. I'm trying to quit something that I
haven't attempted to in years. My body's so sore though. I feel like if
I can just make it to where I can sit down then I'll be fine. ( yeah
pathetic I know ) But I'm finally happy to be rid of that shit. My
husband went to the store last night to get milk and ended up getting
me a caramel crunch bar....I've been staring at it and it's like,
whatever. If I had been smoking weed then it'd be gone and I'd be
pissed but since I don't smoke anymore it's like I can just leave it
here on my desk and not feel he urge to eat it. I'm mainly thinking on
hiding it and when I get a chocolate craving to just get it and split
it with the kids. God I'm so pumped that I'm done smoking !!! it's like
I know that my intakes will be a lot better and my chances on binging
are going to be lower cause that was the biggest thing in my way.
EDIT: 4:00pm
So I finished all my classes!!! Just took my last final and I'll get the results probably on Sat or Monday! ~ Hoping to get A's. Anyways husband's home from work ( rained out ) and isn't very happy. I don't know what's wrong but he's in a really pissy mood and basically had a freak out playing call of duty 4....he's in the shower now and usually I'd be in there talking to him but he just doesn't seem to want to do anything with me or anyone right now. I haven't eaten anything so far today....weird. But I'm in a pretty good place and am not even hungry. I know I'll probably have to eat something for dinner. love and luck girls
TTT FOR THE DAY: ( most are repetitive from the past etc. but it helps me to read them as much as possible )
• Celery actually burns calories. Every hour eat a stalk of it. Not only will it fill you up, but it'll also get your metabolism kicking.
• When you feel you need to eat, list the reasons why it's not such a good idea, by then you'll most likely lose the craving, and you'll have convincing reasons not to eat.
• Coffee on an empty stomach it will make you feel sick
• Always wear a rubber band on your wrist, when you're tempted - twang, you won't be for long.
• Make a trigger/thinspiration book filled with dieting tips, quotes, safe foods, and anything else that will trigger you into not eating.
• If you're in college, plan your schedule so that it spreads throughout the day that way you won't have long gaps of time where you can pig out.
• Whenever you get hungry, think of all the people who made fun of you when you were fat.
• Put your fork down in between bites at meal time.
• Always keep a trash can near you when you eat so if you feel like you are going to over eat, you can just make it a reflex action to throw the food away.
• If you're annoyed at your family for always trying to make you eat breakfast with them, tell them (while holding your stomach with your arms and looking like you're about to puke) that you always feel sick after you eat in the morning so early.
• If you have to cook for your family, make sure it's something that takes a long time to cook so that way when it's done and you're ready to eat it, you will be full just by the smell and waiting and you won't be able to finish it all .It also helps to drink a lot of water while you're waiting, as that fills you up, too.
• If you throw food in the trash can in your bedroom, make sure you get rid of the bag before going to bed otherwise it will reek in the morning.
• Drink plenty of water, at least 8 glasses a day.
• Exercise and sweat, when you sweat you burn calories
• If you have a craving for sugar, try fat-free, sugar free Jell-O. It's only 10 cals per serving, if you want you can eat the whole bowl and its only 40 cals.
• After you eat brush your teeth. You won't want to eat when you have that minty taste on your teeth.
• Get tape or those roll up bandages and wind them tightly around your stomach, it stops you from eating because you can't get the food down properly and you also look thinner.
• If you eat at night before you go to bed make sure you lay on your left side it makes the food go through your system faster and wont have as much time to suck fat out of the food. but you shouldn't eat before you go to bed slows down your metabolism.
• just keep yourself extremely busy, almost to the point of being completely stressed out and you can go for 8 hours without being hungry or wanting to eat
• If you live with your parents, go to bed early & sleep late to avoid some meals, then go out in the day, & say you've eaten a lot. Also, keeping busy will burn more calories
• Remember, out of sight is out of mind. If there are goodies lying around on the counters or table; put them away and/or hide them. That way whenever you walk through the kitchen you won't be tempted
• get comfy in bed, being comfy means you don't want to move, which means no getting up to get food
• To get a slimmer belly, do as many crunches as you can stand. And then go to bed so you're well rested and not hungry
• If you have a terrible craving, turn on the T.V.! Most likely, SOME sort of show will be on with skinny, gorgeous actresses/models. It's a definite way to curb an appetite
• If you need to eat out, some ways you can avoid food are: Turn vegan, makes it hard to find suitable food, claim you have severe food allergies (always a good answer when they offer chocolate), or order something that you've never tried before. When you taste it, say you don't like it.
• Remember... Beating hunger is mostly a matter of distraction. Try not to be alone if you really want to ignore your hunger.
• use your mind - think about what the food would look like in your body after you have eaten it... hopefully that will put you off
• When you're cooking, make sure you chew gum at the same time so you won't be tempted to take lil' bites of the stuff you're cooking
• If you're with your family or something, and you're at a buffet, spend most of the time acting like you're picky, and walk around the buffet tables. Then just get a little something and spit it in your cup or something. Sneak in some exercise too while you're walking
• Drink a glass of water every hour it will make you feel full
• If you live on your own or have a lot of privacy, tape/tack up pictures of your favorite models and always carry one around with you, when you're hungry pull out the picture. if you live on your own tape them up on the fridge, freezer, and cupboards (just remember to take them down or cover them when people come over)
• If you're a smoker and you're hungry, light up a cigarette - it curbs your appetite and you no longer feel hungry
• In the morning, cut up an apple into eight pieces. eat two for breakfast, two for lunch, two for supper and two a few hours before you sleep, make sure to drink water with it so you can feel a little more full
• Make up places to go. say you're going to a friends house for dinner, or going out to a restaurant, and then just go somewhere where you can't eat
• If you are really craving food, brush your teeth with a strong mint toothpaste, this helps to put me off food because of the taste it leaves behind
• When you are hungry do something gross; like dig for worms, clean a kitty litter box or something; it will make you not hungry
• When drinking water.. drink ICE COLD water... your body has to burn calories to keep your body temperature up
• GUM!!!! get the sugar free kind and chew baby chew
• Sleep at least 6 hours a night. Less than 6 hours sleep a night stimulates appetite by 15%
• Lower the temperature in your house 10 degrees to burn more calories, or take a icy cold shower/bath. Like drinking the ice water, it is cause your body burns calories warming you back up
• If you're really hungry, buy a bag of low fat low cal hard candies. when you suck on them a lot your stomach will tell you that you are full
• Try drinking more hot beverages, especially in fall and in winter.
• Spicy foods raise your metabolism and burn slightly more calories than foods
• If you feel like you want to eat, go to a friends house where you can't raid the fridge at
• When you go out take only a few bucks with you so when you walk past the pastry shops you can't afford anything
• Before you dig into that carton of ice cream, bag of chips, etc., take a deep breath and count to 100. Usually, by the time you stop counting you will have convinced yourself that you don't really need it
• Write a note to yourself listing all the reasons you are finally ready to lose weight. Keep this letter with you at all times, for inspiration
• Drink ice water. The body burns up to 40 negative calories just by turning up its metabolism in order to warm the water
• Eat your sweets at breakfast. Than way you can burn it over during the day
• If you love a certain food, save the wrappers even after you've eaten it. Smell it when you're hungry
• Don't Swallow! Take a bite, chew, and spit it out
• Sit up straight. You'll burn at least ten percent more calories sitting upright than reclining
• If you're being watched, try the opaque cup trick; pretend you're eating, and spit the food in the cup while you pretend to be drinking - don't forget to get rid of what's in the cup
• Go to the kitchen often, and pretend you're snacking, take a bite out of something and take a long time, look in the fridge, ETC! they will think you're always in the kitchen eating, and won't suspect anything..
• Go Vegan or vegetarian or just cut out red meat...meat and meat products have a lot of fat in them
• When you got hunger pains curl up in a ball. It really helps them go a way.
• Hit your stomach when it grumbles because that will make the sound go away and your stomach will hurt too much to eat.
• Persuade yourself that you don't like a food. Brainwash yourself into thinking yuck when you see food.
• Always leave at least 3 hours between eating anything and going to sleep.
• Hide your food in a ziplock back if you eat by yourself. Remember to dispose it later.
• Take a Polaroid of yourself naked and every time you want to eat just look at the picture a see how gross you look.
• When you have a craving for sweets, have 'crystal light' sugar free candies. They're really good, and are HALF the calories of normal hard candy
To Inspire You
All to inspire you
Make a list of all the "bad" foods that you crave and tend to binge on. Each day, pick one to take out of your diet that you absolutely, no matter what, cannot eat again. Take one off the list each day until there are no more bad foods you can have.
Avoid alcohol! A shot of liquor has 100-120 calories, a glass of wine has 80 calories, a lite beer has 110-120 calories, and a regular beer has 140-170 calories.
Make your work outs more fun, dance to your fave CD, and do gymnastics, go skating, etc. Running every day can get really old, plus if you always do the same thing, you have a bigger chance of hitting plateaus.
Never eat anything bigger than about a cup, your stomach will expand and then you'll get hungry more.
It takes twelve hours for the body to start feeding off of its own fat.
Eat in front of a mirror naked. See how much you can eat then!
Hit your stomach (just not too hard) if it's growling too loudly.
Curl up in a ball if you have hunger pains.
The smell of coffee is suppose to suppress appetite.
Wear perfectly applied lip gloss. It makes you more aware of what's going in your mouth. Also, flavored ones help with cravings.
Throw away the foods you think you'll binge on.
When going out, take only the amount of money you'll need. Nothing extra, that way you won't be tempted to spend it on food.
Sitting up straight and having good posture burns 10% more calories than when you slouch.
Have 6 small meals a day. Take 2 apples, and split them so you can make 6 meals out of them. That way your body will be tricked into thinking it's eating more.
Eat what you crave, but in moderation. Only a few bites of it. Enjoy it and eat it slowly.
Low calorie hot chocolate curbs chocolate cravings, and makes you feel full.
Find a buddy online, and do fasts with them, competitions, or just have someone to email when you're craving.
Take a picture of yourself wearing a bathing suit or something equally revealing, look at it when you want to eat.
Wear a rubber-band around your wrist and snap it against your skin when you are tempted to eat.
Take anti-heartburn pills if you're really hungry. They neutralize the acid that builds and makes you hungry.
If you eat right before bed, lay on your left side so the food goes through your system faster.
Chew gum if you need to cook so you won't eat any of the food.
Drink a glass of ice cold water every hour; it will make you feel full.
When you get hunger pains curl into a ball, it makes them go away.
It takes 20 minutes for the brain to realize the stomach is full.
When you're hungry, chew sugar free gum. Peppermints also help to decrease hunger.
If you're a smoker and hungry, light up a cigarette. It curbs your appetite.
Before you dig into that cake, bag of chips, candy, or whatever, take a deep breath and count to 100. Usually by the time you get to 100 you will have convinced yourself that you don't really want it.
Eat lots of fiber. It makes you feel full and takes fat with it out of your body. The natural cleansing helps improve both your energy level and overall feeling of wellness.
Sleep at least 6 hours a night. Less than 6 hours of sleep a night stimulates appetite by 10-15%.
If you're ever feeling tempted, just remember the 4 D's:
Distance yourself from the food;
distract yourself;
Delay eating;
decide what your goals really are.
Caffeine speeds up metabolism. Have at least 2-3 servings a day.
Eat ice cubes; they give you the feel like you're eating something and the coldness can actually burn calories.
When you're hungry chug 2 glasses (or how many you need) of straight water. It'll make you so full and nauseous you will have completely lost your appetite.
Spin in circles, you will be too nauseous to eat.
If you're right handed, eat with your left hand. It will take a lot longer to get the food to your mouth.
If eating any sweets, eat them at breakfast. This way you have the rest of the day to burn them off.
Find something that makes you feel ill or unpleasant and think or look at it as you eat. After a while you make begin to associate food itself with unpleasantness.
Fidgeting burns 500-800 extra calories a day. Suck in your tummy and squeeze your buns, bounce your legs, sway side to side, swing your feet, etc.
Studies show that the more food you're given, the more food you eat.
Celery actually burns calories. Every hour eat a stalk of it. Not only will it fill you up, but it will also get your metabolism kicking.
Take a shower. Hot steamy water can suppress your appetite and paying close attention to your body will remind you exactly why you're losing weight in the first place.
When eating, put down your silverware or sip water in between each bite. Your stomach will feel full faster and you are less likely to overeat.
If you don't already, drink diet sodas instead of regular soda. Pepsi One had no calories and tastes like a regular Pepsi. They can also bloat your stomach, making you less hungry.
Drink at least two quarts of water each day. This helps control your appetite. Sometimes a feeling of hunger is actually thirst. Additionally, water is necessary to carry away the breakdown byproducts of fat. Carry a little sport bottle at all times. If you feel hungry, take a drink.
Chew every bite at least thirty times. Your food will taste better and you will be much more satisfied. Don't swallow until all the flavor is gone from of each bite.
Pay attention to when and what you are eating. Ask yourself: "Do I really want to eat this?"
Weigh yourself before and after every time you eat. Not only will it eliminate unnecessary eating, but it will make you want to eat less when you see the numbers creep up.
This tip will only work if you live alone or live with someone who dieting (or just doesn't care). Find pictures of overweight people and put them in various places around your house...put some near the TV, to remind you to exercise, put some near the trigger foods (you know the ones) to remind you that that is how you will look if you eat that. If you are living with someone on a diet they will most likely agree to this if you tell them it’s a proven fact that it helps weight loss.
When dining out, no matter what the waiter says about the fat or calorie content of food assume everything is covered with butter, even the silverware.
Plan your day; Try to decide what you will eat and when, so you don't have to discover after the fact that you have gone over your calorie limit.
Read the nutritional information. Remember, fat-free does not mean calorie-free. Also keep an eye on fiber content. Get as much fiber into your diet as you can, while cutting fat and calories.
Get more exercise. On top of working out or dancing or whatever you do, increase your daily exercise other ways. Take stairs instead of elevators or escalators. Walk your dog. Walk to the corner store instead of driving. Choose the parking spot farthest from the store when you do drive. Sneak extra movement in wherever you can. Every little bit burns a few more calories.
Cleaning something dirty can make you lose your appetite. The toilet, the litter box, under the kitchen sink, scrubbing out the garbage bin, anything grimy or smelly. The mess, along with the smell of the cleaner, can put you off food for a while.
Make it a rule that you always have to burn twice the calories you consume (i.e., if you ate something with 100 calories, you would have to burn 200). The thought of all the exercising you would have to do can be very discouraging.
When feeling hungry drink something hot. It expands your intestinal tract and makes you feel fuller.
Diet pills can really help you out. They give you extra energy to work out (great for avoiding fatigue when you're fasting). Don’t get addicted or your metabolism will depend on them. Take them for a week, then don’t take them for a week, off and on, so your metabolism will survive.
Don't eat a lot a once. Spread your food throughout the day. This will help to avoid binging and keep your metabolism going.
If your working out a lot and getting sore muscles, make sure you're drinking enough water. If you're still sore all the time, try using icy hot or heating pad to keep muscles from cramping.
Turn the temperature down in your car/house, or open windows in your room at night, so that you'll be colder and your body will have to burn calories to keep warm.
If you like to drink, you'll like this. Make a rule: You can only drink every time you lose 2lbs. So, if you lose 4lbs a week, you can drink Friday and Saturday night. However, if you only lose 2lbs a week, you only get to drink one night.
If you work out early in the morning before you've eaten anything, you're going to be burning maximum fat. If you eat before workout out, you're just going to burn off the food rather than fat. So, avoid eating an hour before your work out. You should also avoid eating right after you exercise because your body will stop burning fat and go straight to burning to the food.
Go for long walks. It not only burns calories and keeps you away from food, but can be relaxing and of course, healthy.
Do not eat in front of the computer or TV. This distracts you from recognizing you're full.
Keep a journal or diary or whatever to record what you've eaten.
Drink 3 cups of green tea a day. It’s really good for you, de-toxes and speeds up your metabolism which is always a good thing.
When you lose weight reward yourself with something you want (not food obviously). Shopping is always good.
Always have the radio on and get into the habit of dancing along. You may look like a fool but you'll burn calories.
Kelp pills will speed up your metabolism.
Eat lots of fruits and veggies.
Instead of buying food, buy yourself flowers. Food is depressing, but flowers make you happy.
Exchange a bad habit for a good one (i.e. someone trades smoking for jogging). This may be hard, but very rewarding if you can do it. Exchange eating for yoga, or meditation, or reading more.
Think higher of yourself! You're too good to put THAT in your body!
Save the money you would have spent on that meal in a jar. Save it in a bottle instead and watch it grow.
Eat vicariously. Watch other people eat, and feel superior! You don't need that food. They are feeding their fat bodies and they're getting fatter! You can see then growing! How repulsive.
Make a notebook of thinspiration - notes, letters, thoughts and especially pictures of your goal.
Brush your teeth frequently. A fresh mouth helps keep you from wanting to eat.
Different sleeping habits. Go to bed later than everyone else, so you can exercise while they're sleeping. Wake up later, and have a light breakfast when they eat lunch, they'll think nothing of it.
Stay away from Slim-fast and other so-called "healthy" candy bars and shakes... one look at the nutrition facts will tell you why. With all the carbs and excess calories you may as well go eat a pie or something. Not to mention the ridiculous prices... save yourself the money, and the calories.
Spicy foods raise your metabolism and burn slightly more calories than other foods. They'll also help keep you from getting bored with the same old boring low-cal stuff.
If you feel like you want to eat, go to a friend’s house that you cannot just raid the fridge at.
Drink 2 tbsp of vinegar before the meal, so (apparently) it will help suck the fat out of it.
Spoil your food. As soon as you've cooked/served up your meal, put too much salt, pepper, sauce, (or even detergent) on it. That way you won't want to eat it!
Tips and Tricks
001. Purge in your room if you can, this will lesson the suspicion of you going to the bathroom all the time.
002. Weigh yourself before you eat, then after you purge to make sure you haven't gained
003. Put a few pieces of toilet paper in the toilet before you purge, this will stop the water from splashing back in your face.

Get comfy in bed, being comfy means you won't want to get up to get food.
29.
Use your mind. Think about what the food would look like in your stomach after you've eaten it.
30.

31.

32.
Pinch all your fat and see how disgusting it is and then you'll think that if you eat you'll just add more to it.
33.
If people start saying they're worried about your weight loss, get really upset and say how mad you get every time somebody comments on your skinny body. Complain a lot about how you wish you could gain weight so people will stop making rude comments.
34.
If you eat, ONLY eat when people are watching.
35.
Obesity is disgusting. Remember that.
36.
Thinspiration is your best friend. You think you've lost weight? Trust me you haven't. Just check out the models online and you'll realise that.
37.
Live by the scales. It's right and you're FAT.
38.
Keep in mind - If your skinny friend eats a lot, that DOES NOT mean that you can do the same.
39.
Learn to love that empty feeling in your stomach. Trust me you'll feel repulsed when it starts getting full again.
40.
Watch what other people, especially fat people, eat and feel superior because they're feeding their bodies and getting fatter.

If you're hungry, spin around until you feel queasy.
42.
Chew sugar free gum. It keeps your mouth busy!
43.
If you eat, remember to sit down in the same place every day. Somewhere solitary; not in front of TV or computer. Eating in front of TV distracts you from your body's fullness signals, and you're more likely not to notice what you're eating.
44.
A little envy is a good thing! Competition is a great mobiliser. If you're really hungry, buy a bag of low fat low cal hard candies. When you suck on them a lot your stomach will tell you that you are full.
45.
If you feel like you want to eat, go to a friend?s house that you cannot just raid the fridge at.
46.
When you get hunger pains, curl up in a ball. It really helps them go away.
47.
Try eating something fatty but healthy, (like a banana) early in the day. For the rest of the day, when you want to eat, just remind you of the fatty food you ate earlier.
48.
Image what you want to eat when eating something(like vegies or fruit) it helps when you have a urge to eat something sweet.
49.
Try my fav trick. The Trash bag trick, this works for triger foods or for people who might be afrid of getting caught of being ana, just get a trash bag. Hide it in your room*some where good*, then get a snak or at Dinner time, take it in you room if able, when you know your safe dump it, wait a good wile, then walk out, and say something like"wow that was good, or i'm full" if you have to sit with the family, then this also works at night, get food with wrapers then unwrap the food and put the food in the bag, but the wrapers in the family trash bag or leave it out so mom or dad can find it.
50.
Always talk about how good something was
51.
Fiber speeds up your digestion, and takes fat out with it.
52.
Rember though: High in cals makes you fat, low in cals will make you want higher cals.
53.
don't wear a lot of clothes, you burn more cals, Because your body has to keep warm.
54.
if you can, take cold showers for the same reason above
55.
Drink cold water to burn more cals
56.
drink warm water to feel full

Tried and True Tips and Tricks
*Drink water! This is the #1 rule for both ana and mia. It fills you up when you are hungry and makes purging easier.
The general rule is also that hot water fills you up more and ice cold water helps you to burn more calories since it
lowers your body temperature so your body has to work harder to stay warm.
*Chew sugar free gum or mints constantly. I am never without one or the other in my mouth. The benefits are endless: it
kills cravings, keeps your mouth full so you can't binge, burns calories by chewing, peppermint flavors suppress
appetites, and prevents bad breath if you are in ketosis.
*Tea of Coffee are an Ana’s best friend. Drink with NO CREAM OR MILK and artificial sweetener ONLY. Tea is especially
great because it comes in so many different flavors and is calorie free, as opposed to black coffee which has an albeit
small amount. The caffeine is also great for raising metabolism.
*Cut food into tiny pieces. Put your fork down between bites. Chew everything a certain number of times. Eat in patterns.
Develop systems of eating. All of this helps to make food a mere object rather than the devil itself.
*Take a sip of water or other calorie-free liquid between each bite. You feel full much faster, partially because the body
often mistakes thirst for hunger, so by drinking, one actually reduces the amount of food their body needs to eat.
*If you are really craving something specific and are on the verge of a binge, go into the kitchen, prepare it, and then
eat it-but do not swallow! Chew it slowly, enjoy it, and then spit it out. Immediately after that rinse your mouth with water
at least three times before swallowing a sip so you do not accidentally ingest any calories.
*If you are about to binge, pick a safe food, preferably negative calorie (pickles, celery, blueberries, etc.) and eat it non-
stop for up to half an hour, taking a sip of water with each bite. Often you will not be able to even get up to half an hour,
and you will be full so the desire to binge will be gone, but you haven't eaten anything "bad."
*No Sugar Added, Fat-Free Fudge Pops. These are the reason I am alive. They have 40 calories in one and taste
exactly like chocolate ice cream. If you must binge, try eating a whole box of these. There are 560 calories in a box of
14, and they are easy to purge.
*Do not ever eat anything you do not know the exact amount of calories in. Sometimes you can fool yourself into thinking
you've eaten less than you have. Remember, numbers do not lie.
*Track progress by measurements and not the scale alone. Scales are affected by everything from the weather to the
time of day, but the numbers on a measuring tape are affected by nothing except the actual size of your body.
*Keep a food diary. Start your own pro-ana page. Make an ed scrapbook. Anything that keeps your mind on not eating
is a good thing.
*When you want to eat, exercise for at least 15 minutes first. I like to put on nice lyrical music, usually Charlotte Martin or
sometimes classical, and do bare work. It not only distracts you from eating but burns calories and benefits your body as
well.
*Buy a pair of expensive jeans at least one size too small. Try them on right before you eat. You will either not want to
eat or will eat less. When you lose enough weight to fit into them properly, reward yourself by buying another pair, again
one or two sizes too small.
*Eat low-calorie foods with very intense flavors. Often times you just crave taste. Chili peppers, anything pickled,
peppermints, and very concentrated bullion (make it with half the water recommended) are all good options.
*Make a list of foods that you are absolutely never ever allowed to eat. Write it down and keep it somewhere accessible.
On this list should be things like doughnuts, cake, cream, soda, fatty meats like duck, and any dairy product not made
with skim milk. If you really like any of these things and find it hard to resist, prepare it, but then put something disgusting
all over it (like pouring vinegar on a cream-filled doughnut). Take a bite. You will find you have totally lost your taste for
the food.
*Diet pills are amazing, but you have to be careful. Try to eat something small and safe when you take one, like an apple
or a small piece of grilled chicken. If you don't then you will get awful side effects. The same goes for taking more than
the recommended amount. I have taken four stacker 3 pills with no food and almost ended up dead because of it. Use,
but with caution.
*If you must go out to eat, go to the restaurant’s web page before hand, and find something safe to eat. Do not eat
bread or appetizers. Order a salad with dressing on the side if everyone else is having appetizers. If there is nothing
safe on the menu most places will make you a plain piece of grilled chicken or fish if you ask.
*Never drink soda. There is absolutely no reason to. Even diet soda will actually make you look bloated and weigh a little
more.
When
we move around, we burn calories. When we we are inactive, we still
burn calories, but nearly as many. It stands to reason, then, that
getting off our butts is a key component to weight loss. Joining a
fitness center is a great way to make this happen, but some people feel
like they stick out in gyms more than Paris Hilton would at a Mensa
convention. Fortunately, it's entirely possible to torch some calories from the comfort of your home. Here's a look at how.
