Updating profile?
So, when I started here I was pretty much non active, which is the information I entered in my profile when I joined 5 weeks ago. Now, I exercise every day. Do I need to go back in and update that information or do I just keep going forward with my initial settings? Thanks! +++POSITIVE THOUGHTS+++!!! Niccole

GET MAD!!!
I have decided to get angry at all the big lies in advertising. I am also trying to explain this to my 14-year old, who loves fast food. You CANNOT eat McDonald's, or any other burgers and fries and gerneral crapola, on a daily basis and look like the people on TV who advertise for those places. If they are eating there…

I don't know what the weather is like in the rest of the world.. But here, it is dark and raining. Considering that we have had a major drought and NEED the rain, it is so depressing looking out the window and watching the clouds go by. Makes we want to eat some major comfort food! And to top things off, the day is…

Losing weight too fast?
Hi there, Does anyone know of any long-term drawbacks to losing weight more rapidly than 2 lbs. a week - provided one is doing so in a healthy manner? I'm eating my recommended daily intake of calories (around 1300), and, rather than losing one pound per week, I have lost 8 pounds in one week. Has anyone had a similar…

OK, maybe this is obvious...
I'm not educated on what foods make you feel full, so bear with me if this seems obvious. Yesterday I had Special K cereal with skim milk for breakfast, and vegetable noodle soup with tofu for lunch. By 2pm I was so ravenous I thought I'd chew my eraser off my pencil! Today, I had a hard boiled egg for breakfast, and for…

Discouraged by Nutritionists
I have now talked with a few nutritionists and I can’t seem to get through the initial talks. I wanted to see where I was starting by not changing anything that I am doing for at least a week, so I can get a good reference from where I am starting. Using this calorie count site, I have noticed that on a weekly average my…

Eat like a Hobbit, kind of
Hobbits enjoy at least seven meals a day, not including snacks,[5] when they can get them - breakfast, (arguably) second breakfast, elevenses, luncheon, tea, dinner and later, supper. They like simple food such as bread, meat, potatoes, and cheese, have a passion for mushrooms, and also like to drink ale and beer, often in…

Limiting alcohol
I've decided to not drink wine at all at least two nights a week. I know the 2 glasses I've been having are slowing me down. Not only are they empty calories, but I've read alcohol slows the metabolism. I'd like to be able to say no alcohol at all, but I don't want to set myself up to fail. Two nights a week I know I can…
