  • I am anemic as well, so I might need to up my iron! I take a multivitamin daily, just today for some reason I am unusually tired, which is strange since I didn't do anything out of the ordinary yesterday to cause it. I appreciate the tips!
  • couple slices of cheddar cheese, multigrain crackers, and hard salami
  • I have a meeting at my gym for a nutrition plan tonight :) so hopefully that will be productive!
  • Thanks cmriverside! I might have to get some Beano because I do get uncomfortably bloated now that I eat more veggies! Also someone has suggested before that I take a probiotic to help with the bloating issue!

I didn't notice it until I started tracking what I ate and how much. I guess…
  • I didn't track my calories when I gained weight. I am tracking now. I have switched to eating alot of raw veggies fruit etc. Those new foods I've introduced into my diet are low in calories. Make sense now? I have lost 21 pounds so far, so no I am not gaining at this point.
  • This is one I like for motivation in general, not only working out but it applies for my journey towards becoming fit and healthy too :) The big secret in life is that there is no big secret. Whatever your goal, you can get there if you're willing to work.
