Ramen is like, the junkiest stuff ever. I used to eat it all the time in college and it has a lot of fat and sodium in it, plus it doesn't fill you up.
So, where are the fruits and veggies? If you ate more of them, you could eat more and feel more full and not consume a whole lot of calories."

OH, suggestion for working out indoors. Jump rope for ten minutes. Same as 30 minutes of nearly ANYTHING else!"

Then, HOW on earth did you make two cups of coffee contain 180 cals? Do NOT tell me you used real sugar instead of splenda!

Gotta second spectra on the Ramen!!!! I didn't say anything before because I lived on the stuff in college! (had to save money for partying after all!) Looking back, I don't even know why I survived it! It really shouldn't even be classified as FOOD! If it's the budget constraints, buy some whole wheat pasta and make your own. You can flavor it any way you want. If you like ramen, try a dash of teriyaki sauce, or a bit of chicken broth. It's still very cheap. And YK? BROWN rice!! or brown mixed with wild. It takes a bit longer to cook, but your body will thank you! (plus...it actually has FLAVOR!) Spectra's right about the veggies, but since I have to force myself to eat them (I hate them so much, I put them in my spring challenge) I really can't jump on you about that!
p.s BUY a jump rope, even the toy-store ones are ok, or even the ones in the junky toy section at the supermarket."
