in Introduce Yourself
Hi, I am new to fitness pal. I have struggled with my weight for the past 4 years now. I recently got married and am not huge but I would like to be healthy for a long life with my very athletic and healthy husband. He loves me skinny and chubby so I know he is a keeper. I need help with my eating, becuase I like to workout, but the scale has not moved in a few years. So any help will be most appreciated.

Teresa:smile:

    Hi Teresa, What does your regular menu look like? How much are you eating and how often. If you share some of that they we will be able to help you out.

    Thanks! I have recently just started to eat more regularly ( I know I'm the worst). I am a teacher for children with emotional/behavior disorder so during the day I am so busy I really don't eat, so my problem is when I get home I'm starving. I drink tons of water throughout the day. I am trying to eat fruit in the morning, and have a good lunch with vegetables and protein. However by the time I get home for dinner I am exhausted so I usually make pasta or pick up Subway. I need to get into a better routine of eating and eating the right things, but old habits die hard. Any ideas on how to prepare good lunches and dinners would be great.
