With such a topic so broad we truly try to cover the basics from all angles in this group. Nothing too big or too small. Nutrition is as significant if not more as exercise is to reaching your goals so learn all you can.

Or you can cut down your candy and eat right. Save your candy as a reward for eating right throughout the week. Earn your sugar with workouts and healthy eating. The less candy you eat, the less appealing it will be and the more you will notice that it isn't as tasty as you think. If you want to lose 15lbs, the sugar has to go and you wil have to eat on a regular schedue. This is mostly an issue of wishing or wanting - if yopu wish it is a built in excuse, wishes are just that 0 aomething we hope might happen, but aren't in our control. If you want it tp happen, you will make it happen. take control and do it. -------------- If you fall down seven times, get up eight.
