I love dairy products and many lo-cal snacks can be found in that category.

Oh man. I just counted. <BR/><BR/>I think one thing to think about, that has helped me tremendously, is that the goal is not necessarily the number, the the healthy journey towards that number.<BR/><BR/>I am still losing sizes, so I know I'm toning up and adding muscle. Eventually, my body will catch on. <BR/><BR/>This is GREAT information. Great topic.

Eve Caulter at the National Sleep Institute calls a lack of sleep the 'royal route to obesity'. When we don’t get enough sleep prolatin continues into the day and it suppresses leptin which is the hormone that switches off our appetite for carbs. If this happens day in and day out, we build leptin resistence - our leptin receptors go dead from overload, so it’s as if you have none, it leaves your sweet tooth exposed.Cari Corbet-Owenhttp://www.ditch-diets-live-light.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-45298391766138107062008-11-17T09:54:00.000-05:002008-11-17T09:54:00.000-05:00I haven't been doing this whole weight-loss thing long enough to hit a plateau yet, but I really appreciate this information.
