Fasting??? Good/Bad, your thoughts?
Ok, so i'm doing the math with myfitnesspal and basically the less you eat the more you lose. I read up about fasting, the good and the bad, it seems like western medicine says it will slow down your body etc... but i'm not so sure, another study with rats said fasting works.. and the rats even lived longer... Any thoughts…

Bought the Hungry Girl cookbook
So, despite a few of my friends laughing at me, the manly man, buying a book called 'hungry girl' on the front, I picked up the Hungry Girl cookbook today at Barnes and Noble. They stopped laughing when the attractive sales girl mentioned that she loved guys who could cook. :blushing: Oh. My. God. I want to eat the whole…

Nausea after eating
So, for the past few weeks, I have felt sick to my stomach after eating. (To ward off the inevitable: I am not pregnant, which I have ascertained after taking a pregnancy test and getting my period last week. :happy: ) It can be anywhere from mild to moderate tummy ache. It's not after any one thing (veggies, carbs,…

Detoxing after sugar binge?
Well, I posted already about this in "anyone who needs to lose 50 pounds", but I will repost as this question: What is the best way to detox after two days of bingeing on sugar? I have a sugar headache right now, and had one all day yesterday, as well. Obviously I need to drink LOTS of water. I am concerned about diabetes,…

Cereal as a snack
I am on quests to find new things to cnack on that are in the "normal" food category, meaning none of these goofy diet cookies or low carb fad things. I do like 100 calorie packs, mainly cause they are the real food, just smaller more adult portions ready to go, no measuring. But I did find a great new munchy. I am a huge…

Splenda/Sugar question
I love Hungry-girl and love the new cookbook, but I noticed that a lot of recipes call for Splenda. I really don't eat this stuff, or any other artificial sweetener for that matter...I just think its gross and weird to be honest. So I don't really mind upping the calories and using real sugar instead, but are the…

100 calorie angel food cake?
Hey guys - My parents picked up an angel food cake from the Safeway bakery (pre-made), and we were amazed to find that one serving (and it's a huge serving 1/8 of the big cake) was only 100 calories! Now we're all hooked on it, but unfortunately they don't have it all the time. We looked at some angel food cake mixes in…

skipping breakfast
Hi! I wonder if anyone can enlighten me on the effects of skipping breakfast. I know that it is best to eat breakfast, and that it 'jump starts your metablolism for the day, but just how much does NOT eating breakfast hurt you? Ive never been much of a breakfast person, and it is usualy somewhere around lunchtime before i…

100 cal croissant?!
Does anyone know if this is actually right? The "Costco- Kirkland - Croissant" is listed in the database at only 100 cals? If it's the ones that I'm thinking of then those things are huge and full of butter. If it is, then holy crap, I may have just struck gold!

Mother's Day off?
Ok, so I need to know, did anyone else take Mother's Day off? I feel really bad now that I didn't log my calories, but I didn't want to know what all I was eating. I didn't do that bad, had a normal low cal breakfast and then had grilled chicken and veggies for lunch, but had rice. I also had a pretty good dinner with…

Cinnamon Raisin PB and put a tablespoon on the toasted crumpet. Oh my!! Talk about scrumptious!! It is like 190 calories and 6 g of fat...but sooo satisfying!!

The Splenda shut off
Ok. Tomorrow will be day 1 of no splenda. I just read someone's nutrasweet post on MFP and realized that I use tons of splenda and have for about 4 years. Maybe that's where a lot of my troubles are stemming from? Ok. Maybe not. but I figure it's worth a try. I use about 4-6 packets of splenda a day, which has increased a…

Buffets are the spawn of satan
What are your worst buffet stories or how did you survive? Whoever invented buffets should be punished. How can it ever be a good idea to give someone and empty plate and say "go for it" as many times as you want. I plan events and on the big day of an event there is no time to eat. I bring a few healthy items along but…
