Re: Weight Loss - Tips & Daily Check-in
DC - not to say you're wrong but I asked my doctor about the sugar in fruit in regards to like what you say above and he said that the sugar in fruit is not a matter to worry about at all due to the fact that it's easily broken down by the body, unlike processed sugar (man made stuff found in twinkies, ho-hos, etc). He said to not worry about eating too much fruit basically.
As for me, I loved adding in a banana, ice chips, some 1% milk, 2 scoops of protein powder, 2 scoops of natural peanut butter, then some real unsalted nuts for texture. Man that's a good smoothie!Concrete evidence/videos pleaseComment

Re: Weight Loss - Tips & Daily Check-in
My grandma was saying that a lot to me for eating the fruit is why i said that to my doctor DC, and like i said, he said that unless you're diabetic it means nothing really. I mean obviously you don't want to be eating fruit at every single meal and for every snack, but just for a smoothie you should be putting in whatever fruit you want.Streaming PC & PS5 games, join me most nights after 6:00pm ET on TwitchTV https://www.twitch.tv/shaunh20

Re: Weight Loss - Tips & Daily Check-in
I'm starting again on the weight loss journey and joining the thread.
I might throw out suggestions, but don't take it as gospel.
I became upset because I gained 8 lbs since last seeing my doctor.
I've lost over 3lbs since Monday. I'm eating about 1500 calories/day and working out hopefully 6 days/wk. Last night I did about 20 minutes of lower body work(lunges, etc...) after 32 minutes on the treadmill.
This morning I had Egg Fu Young for breakfast. Cabbage, carrots, scallions, mushrooms, 4 oz of chicken and garlic cooked with 6 egg whites plus 1 with yolk. Put some low sodium soy sauce on(didn't have any so used a low sugar bbq sauce with salsa) and yummy for the tummy. Also, had a slice of Ekzeziel (sp) with no sugar jelly and 8 oz skim milk.
The Egg Fu Young was 140 calories, the slice of bread 80 and the jelly 10. Plus, 1 glass of 1% milk. Close to 300 calories for breakfast.
Strawberry protein smoothie coming up and 34 minutes on the treadmill with an upper body workout today sometime.Comment

Re: Weight Loss - Tips & Daily Check-in
I prefer the scale due to the fact that I think if you don't check it you will get in more trouble than you do. Well for me anyways. I know some people can get discouraged by it (and I do as well but never to the point i'd quit) but for me when I don't check it I tend to cheat more and work less because I don't have anything to answer to.
I won't say the scale never lies, it seems it likes to f*** with you every now and then but the bottom line is it's like a good friend who is sometimes an @ss, he may act like an @ss sometimes but he ultimately has your back.
So for lunch I had:
1 half piece alaskan cod (60)
1 piece of snack cheese (60)
1/2 helping pasta salad with cauliflower & broccoli (70)
5 strawberries (40)
15 mini-carrot sticks (20)
Motts sugar free Granny Smith applesauce (80)
1 banana (80)
TOTAL CALORIES: 410
For the day: 830
Btw - I'm not actually eating all of the above at once for lunch, that includes stuff i brought to my desk to snack on until dinner, like the carrot sticks and the banana.Streaming PC & PS5 games, join me most nights after 6:00pm ET on TwitchTV https://www.twitch.tv/shaunh20

Re: Weight Loss - Tips & Daily Check-in
Here's my issue with my nasty habit. I worked out this January through March 4-6 days per week and watched what I ate. I always flucuated 5 pounds up and down. After three months of sweat and watching what I ate, I didn't set foot into the gym for another month and I went off course with my eating.
The scales can have a negative impact on you as well.Comment

Re: Weight Loss - Tips & Daily Check-in
See for me the scale works this way:
I step on scale in the morning, i'm up by a pound or two : I work harder in the gym that day because now i'm pissed.
I step on scale in the morning, i'm down a pound or two: I work harder in the gym because I have saw results.
So for me it's a positive thing. I do think many people can feel the scale is a bully though and get discouraged. It really just depends upon how you interpret the results.Streaming PC & PS5 games, join me most nights after 6:00pm ET on TwitchTV https://www.twitch.tv/shaunh20

treadmill for 10 minutes @ 124 calories
bike for 21 minutes @ 246 calories
elliptical for 23 minutes @ 300 calories
Total Calories burned: 670 calories
Man my shirt was drenched..and I was exhausted. If I go down on tomorrow's gym weigh-in like a punk, it ain't gonna be for lack of trying!Streaming PC & PS5 games, join me most nights after 6:00pm ET on TwitchTV https://www.twitch.tv/shaunh20
