That's an incredible difference, and I must say your smile can light up a room - so beautiful!

Oh, Elvis is classic though and at least I've heard of him ;) Now I know who they are, I only heard of the show 19 kids & counting but didn't know their names or anything because I don't pay attention to stuff like that. But maybe I will go check out more of their recipes!

Who are the Duggars? Nevermind, I'm going to google this stat! Time to get out from under this rock.

OMG, why have I not heard of this tater tot casserole? Sounds like a winner

Wow, so handsome and confident now! Congratulations, that is a tremendous achievement.

Bacon mac & cheese with extra cheese and extra bacon. (I'm serious).

You are a success story in the making, you have already made giant strides toward your goals and it sounds like you have what it takes to see this through. Keep doing what you're doing, you are making excellent progress! <3

+1 I used to have problems with self-sabotage but now I do this ^^^ and it has completely turned my life around for the better.

Though he doesn't pout, my husband gets snarky when I do something to improve myself and he has admitted he worries that some charming billionaire will whisk me away one day. I have learned to ignore his attitude when he gets like that and just keep working toward my goals. My husband will eventually realize that my love…

It sounds like you may not be eating foods that are satisfying your tastebuds. Are you choosing meals other than what you really, truly want? I'm only putting this out there because I did that for a while and even though I was getting enough calories, I still felt hungry all the time. I realized that I was eating foods I…

Thanks, and yes that is the takeaway I intended: do what works for you and eat what agrees with your body. I do feel happy about being able to eat pretty much anything, but keep in mind I would not feel or look well if I only ate pop tarts and such. I don't over-do anything. Just stick with what makes you feel best and…

That is actually the food-combining diet you listed the rules for.

The problem is that dietary advice is constantly changing. Did you know that Dr. Andrew Weil used to recommend low-fat dairy? He changes his stance every now and then due to new research studies coming out. Just keep in mind that the recommendations in this anti-inflammatory diet will likely change as well. I have been…

I gave myself 3 months as a goal to see major progress.

Like other ways of eating, it works for some. I tried it and decided I'm more of an "all things in moderation" type person. Best of luck with whatever you do.

It does get better. For me it took a little while to figure out that it really is about moderation. I still have some less than stellar days but it's getting better with time. Be patient and understanding with yourself, you're learning and adapting to a different way of doing things. It will take some practice, trial &…

Just make sure you have someone following you around all the time to catch you in case you faint.

Hang in there! Mind over matter.

Le sigh…… I'm over that part, now just waiting for the water weight to go away dammit (I sure hope it's water, not Nutella weight!!!). :|

How does that hamster song go again?

Burpees!!!

The harder you push, the more she will pull away. There is a lot of good advice in this thread. Contemplate it. Most of all, love her and accept her completely as she is now. I wish you and your daughter all the best. I know you will figure it out <3
