Blueskighs, That's crazy!!! We are most definitely on the same wavelength! I never did get my CPA...right off the bat I didn't really have any interest in getting it. That should have told me something right there! I don't know how you did it for 12 years! I don't so much mind doing taxes, but I rea...

Good morning! I will have to look into that book. I read most of the Skinny B***hes book, and I found it very disturbing. I considered going vegan after that, but it only lasted a few days. I have been reading the Omnivore's Dilemma, and it has been very enlightening as well. I hope to finish it soo...

P.S. As far as the No S diet goes I am easing my way into it. For the past 2 weeks I have been trying a rapid fat loss diet as my high school reunion is this weekend. It's emphasis is protein, you figure your daily requirement based on your lean body mass and activity level. I have dropped 3 pounds ...

Blueskighs, I think that you are doing very well, 20% bf is very good, I would be happy with that number as well! I have an accu-measure caliper to measure my body fat, but I am not sure how accurate it actually is. I would love to get a test in one of those water tanks! I have been working out and ...

Blueskighs, No, I am a 28 yo woman. The average body fat for female athletes is around 15%, so I am thinking 18% is more attainable. I have always been in decent shape and had good muscle tone without dieting, so who knows how lean I could get with a consistent eating plan! My problem is that I have...

This is a very interesting topic! Thanks for sharing Blueskighs! I try to focus on my body fat % rather than weight on the scale. Muscle weighs so much more than fat! I currently have about 107 pounds of lean body mass and my ultimate goal is to be between 15 and 18% bodyfat. That would put me betwe...

Bonnie - My boyfriend and I have been socializing less this year since I have basically given up drinking. I think that has definitely contributed to the weight gain this time around since I am home more to eat! I was hoping that giving up beer would help me to lose weight, but that didn't happen si...

Snacking is hard to give up!
Good morning everyone! I discovered the No S Diet while doing some internet surfing over the weekend. It is such a great concept! A little about me: I am 28, 5' 3" and have about 10 pounds to lose. I have never had to diet, but I usually gain and lose the same 5-10 pounds each year. I typically go t...

I too could handle just having coffee with some milk for breakfast, but I try to eat a little something anyways. I have 3 normal staples: 1. Plain yogurt w/ protein powder, which adds sweetness, and flax seeds 2. Cottage cheese w/ pineapple or peaches or cantaloupe 3. Oatmeal, oat bran or steel cut ...
