falling into the emotional eating habit AGAIN
Geez, as soon as grad school gets tough I'm finding myself eating because I'm mad :explode: or otherwise stressed :grumble: . If I had more time I'd spend it exercising, socializing, cooking good food...but I have to spend so much studying it's hard to stay healthy. GGRRRRR. OK, that's my grumble for today--I guess I'll…

Exercise for depression
HI All of you :flowerforyou: I was watching PBS one night and Dr Amen was on. He was saying that in his book, they reported that someone did a head to head study on exercise against a popular antidepressant. EXERCISE WON! Not only did the people who exercise feel better on a day to day basis than the people who took the…

I do a lot of this here...
Venting. Ha ha! So the past two weeks I've done very well. I've eaten breakfast and nearly every day I've made it to 1200 calories. If I come under, its never more then 100-200 calories. I think its hard for me to eat because I'm so un-active. In the past week, I've started stretching. I know that isn't much of an…

*Healthful Midnight Munchies*
*Healthful Midnight Munchies* If we weren't meant to eat late at night, why is there a light inside the refrigerator? Besides, there are times when you've just gotta have something. The trick is to be prepared. Because the main problem with nighttime nibbles has less to do with when you're eating than with what you tend to…

Its just sitting there and I had a few small bite size pieces already!:frown: I can't get myself to get rid of it because I would feel guilty if I threw it out.

STARTING OVER
STARTING OVER. If you've started in pursuit of your goal and you've really tried with your heart and soul, but somehow things got out of control. START OVER.

My daughter
My husband and I have started eating a lot healthier this year. My 16 year old daughter, who unfortunately is built the way I was at that age, could really do well from eating this way too. Instead, she gets mad at us, says we are obsessing on our bodies and has decided she wants to stay at her Dad's house for a month ( he…

2 days off the wagon :(
So I wasn't seeing real results after 3 weeks of hard work (gained back what I had lost, even though I was strict with my calories)... and so I totally fell off the wagon for 2 days. I didn't even bother to record my food diary yesterday or the day before. I'm sure I went over my calories. I didn't go CRAZY with food, but…

Back after a long time
It has been a while, so here is my story. Back near the end of October I got incredibly stressed. This made me not want to eat at all. I lost quite a bit of weight and looked the best I ever had because all I coul really handle was soup and maybe a small dinner for about a month. During this time I finally started dating…
