  • @JustRobby1 I do not base my lifestyle based on clever marketing. I don't pay top dollar for things with fancy labels. I know there are loop holes for being considered "organic" "free range" "grass fed" etc. Instead I raise my own chickens for organic eggs and meat (yes, I butcher them myself). I raise a garden for my own…
  • As responses to this are coming in quicker than I can reply to, I'll just make one last clarification. I was in no way insulting, criticizing, or preaching to anyone. Simply looking for other like minded people. In fact, I was simply excited that I learned to make some awesome homemade flavored coffee creamer this morning…
  • Lord help me. This post in no way ridiculed anyone else's lifestyle or told anyone else how to eat. I was simply looking for other like minded people to exchange recipes, tips, info with. If anyone took offense to that then it's on you. I'm not sure if people know this or not, but if you read something that doesn't…
  • Didn't realize I would need to specify. The real food movement is just moving away from processed food with additives and such. Real food refers to food in its more natural, whole state. Example: a diet based on organic fruits & veggies, organic and/or grassfed meats, dairy products that are processed as little as…
  • No, it's not healthy. It's basically a bunch of chemicals mixed together to be sinfully addictive & wonderful. I'm a believer in real, organic food, but I'm addicted to diet mt dew....I allow myself one a day. We can't be saints. Everything in moderation.
  • Wow. Some of these answers are in-depth. Quick & easy answer: beans, greens like spinach, collard greens, turnip greens, broccoli, etc, red meat, rice, eggs, and some dairy products.
  • In my 30's and starting over again running! Add me!
  • I work 10-12 hour shifts in a hospital laboratory so I understand the crazy hours & shifts & how bad it kills your feet, knees, back, etc! I like oatmeal for bfast and soup & green yogurt for lunch bc they're quick & easy & healthy & you can grab them & go! The oatmeal in a cup is super convenient & publix has awesome…
  • I can't live without Greek yogurt, organic eggs, pb&j on whole wheat bread, oatmeal, and tons of fruit! It's all simple, easy, quick healthy food that you can eat anytime of the day!
  • Good for you for taking the steps to get healthy! My husband & I both work in health care & I would say about 85% of people that get that news do absolutely nothing about it & wind up paying dearly with their quality of life. It is 100% reversible if you tackle it head on! In fact, my hubby has a family history of diabetes…
  • Abs are made in the kitchen! The best thing I ever did was cut back on processed sugar! I didn't go extreme & cut out bread, pasta, etc, just stopped eating sweets like cookies, pie, candy, etc. Once I got through the detox (about two weeks for me...I really love sweets!) I got a sweet ab outline w out changing anything…

  • I'm a lab tech so your blood type joke made me laugh so hard!
  • I just feel better when I exercise & eat healthy. My body is stronger & happier. I work in health care and see young people (in their 30's) who have thrown their whole lives away bc of bad choices; raging diabetics, high blood pressure, copd, heart attacks, strokes, neuropathy, etc in their 30's and 40's because they are…
  • I'm new to My Fitness Pal and running and would love some friends on here for encouragement!
