Stress eating (and I-have-given-up-on-it-all eating) - how do you avoid it?
I find myself wanting to snack at work... a LOT... and having healthy snacks on hand does not help because when I get the craving, carrot sticks and apple slices don't cut it. I want chocolate cupcakes, candy bars, chips. I very rarely indulge, but I get ANGRY when I don't, so now I'm stressed AND angry because I can't…

Help! Taste of Downtown is tomorrow
Tomorrow night it's girls night out at Taste of Downtown. Any ideas on an eating plan tomorrow? Not even sure how to log what I do eat since it's all local businesses. NSV - actually doing my eating outing mindfully so I don't gain 10 lbs in a single evening (I know I'm exaggerating the 10 lbs, but still . . . ).

Stopped Dieting when I got to my goal - Now I want to go further
I stopped dieting at 140 - ended up going up to 144 - water weight and all that from going to a normal diet - but I want to get to 130 and tone up. I'm soft and jiggly still and it's so irritating. The problem is - I can't seem to lose weight anymore! It's so hard to go back to a 1200 calorie diet. I wonder if I beefed up…

What's your favourite way of toning up?
I'm looking to start toning up, I'm 5 ft 6 and 112 lbs. I'm slim-ish but definitely store weight in my hips and thighs and would like to look slimmer (I'd post a picture but I haven't really seen many people do that on this forum so it might be a bit weird). Rather than using weight loss as my first resort, I wanted to try…

Eating Out - how do you cope?
Just wondering what people's approaches to calorie counting and eating out are? Here in the UK restaurants are under no obligation to publish nutritional information about their meals and as such, only the major chains have got calorie information for their dishes. I don't like eating at chains and prefer to support…
