berlong If I had to choose to either fry or grill all of my food, I would most definately choose to grill it. Fried food is SOO fattening and bad for your body, not to mention tastes disgusting after a while. Where as you can grill almost everything and change the...

berlong If you are looking to increase your muscle mass you really should look into a regime of weight lifting as well as resistance training. You don't have to use alot of weight, but it's more so about the number of repetitions. Also, adding a protein shake to your...

Do you prefer hot or cold coffee?

amsterdam83 @amsterdam83 (16) • Philippines 7 Jul 09

Coffee preference for me depends on the weather. If it's scorching hot, I always go for cold coffee such as frappucino, mochachino,etc. But if it's raining a cup of hot coffee do wonders for my brain and body to work. In short, I...

berlong I love coffee either hot or cold. It's the one drink that I can still drink hot even if it's hot as heck outside. And drink it cold even if it's cold outside. I'm not picky about it. I love it that much! For cold coffee though I generally go and get it from...

DavinciRed @DavinciRed (49) • United States 9 Jul 09

berlong A piece of advice from someone (myself) who did this exact thing only a couple years ago. Living on your own isn't a cake walk. Are you able to financially afford moving out? where are you going to live? do you have your own car? can you afford your own gas,...

berlong Yogurt really helps in the digestion of foods due to the fact of the probiotics in the yogurt. The active cultures aid in the breakdown of food and therefore make it a bit easier for your body to pass it all. Where as fruits sometimes act as a diuretic and...

inkstainedheart @inkstainedheart (455) • United States 7 Jul 09

I'm looking for a place to purchase pillows for my living room couch, but there aren't many options in local stores. So where do you shop, online or locally? If you shop online, what websites do you use?

berlong You should definately check out Jcpenney.com or Pier 1 Imports.. Both stores have an online site and have adorable throw pillows. Good luck! Also, Kohls has alot as well and they tend to have sales on them alot too!

berlong If I was to skip a meal it would definately be dinner. As I agree with you breakfast is the most important meal of the day, lunch keeps me going throughout the afternoon, however dinner doesn't do much for me. Dinner for me isn't a necessity. I don't need the...

berlong First of all, losing 20-30 lbs in the next month is NOT a realistic goal. You could aim for 10lbs, 15 AT MOST. But it will take ALOT of self restraint and hard work. Doing crunches and sit ups doesnt necessarily make u lose belly fat but instead it makes ur...
