  • Noreenmarie1234-that looks like a nice size candy bar-- so yeah I could probably eat the correct serving and be satisfied. My trouble is sometimes the serving size is so small -because the bars are not full sized- then.... well anyway- that bar looks yummy-- can it be ordered online?
  • Exactly I had the Pfizer with my vaccines and just went with it for my booster too- I was fine-for my second shot- I had a slight reaction like mild flu just overnight- the booster went fine- just a sore arm as I usually have even when I get the flu shot each year- so I am so thankful to have them.
  • I have a little less than 10 pounds t go to goal- however I am taking it slow this time- I have been here before-- but I usually will start to make excuses or in some way screw up-- this time- I am taking it slow and easy-- eating the right amount and also exercising when its possible and most of all--- trying to be…
  • I am in the South in the USA- in fact in GA-- and yes- Our schools seem to have students out because of covid-- weekly--- no telling HOW the teachers will be able to grade and continue to teach the students. Ps- my niece who is a 30 something year old- vaccinated teacher (also got a break though case Covid which she says-…
  • YOu can do it- a lot of this is trial and error- keep trying- do not allow yourself to feel starving-- maybe within your window you need small mini-meals-- so long as you are IN a claorie deficit- you should lose weight- also a food scale for me- was the key!!!1
  • Also don't forget to try You-tube or Pinterest for some great ideas
  • I just got my Pfizer booster shot yesterday and I did pretty good. My arm is just a little sore(like a three out of ten) in pain-- but nothing I can not easily deal with. I had more of a reaction with my second Pfizer because I did have to lay down that night nd felt a little sick-- but this time(third- booster) went…
  • homemade pumpkin muffin with a slice of bacon and link of sausage and hot coffee
  • Yes my mama- had shingles too- it was awful especially since she was on up in age(around 90 or so). I hated to see her suffer so much. I think I will definitely get the shot when time. As for reactions- I get the flu shot each year-- usually noting major arm sore at site for while. I took both Covid vaccines- noting too…
  • I weigh daily- it helps me to see the ups and downs then I do a weekly average and chart that-- as long as its going down I am fine!
  • I am not just low carb- but i do some low carb items- I follow some you-tubers and web sites. And no I do not do keto- because for me it would not be sustainable!- I KNOW me - lol
  • I made the best french toast- (using the light 60 calorie bread and egg whites-with bacon and coffee
  • I use the primeir protein shakes in my coffee as an afternoon treat- I love and iced coffee this summer-- but I did not use the slim fast shakes- now I used to LOVE the slim fast chips but I can't find them anymore-
  • So glad that someone finally resurrected this message-- We are glad you are here I too can go overboard one way or the other-- so I am working on being balanced- counting my calories to stay in a deficit but also having some treats as well====
  • Yes- Mike-- it is incredibly SAD esp. since so many of the hospitalizations for Covid COULD have been avoided or at least stays made shorter IF they would have simply gotten the vaccine---I pray for your wife's sibling - so tired of all the collateral damage from this!
  • I used the edit button and changed my macros (%) of protein carbs and fat-- I did not go keto or even low carb-- but I did adjust so that I hit protein a little bit more and that helped move the scale for me- I am a woman 60-- so it might be different for you.
  • Daily- then I take the average of those daily weighing for my once a week tracking
  • I am not sure abut the not weighing thing-- but I do feel that you should know that our bodies do have normal fluctuations. so why not just weigh each day esp. before your periods and take note of the weight fluctuations then you can know what to expect. as you know each body is different

  • I will definitely KEEP wearing my mask for the foreseeable future
  • I took my second Pfizer shot- I was fine- Ist shot- sore arm - I took a little Tylenol afterward. Second shot--- just a little fatigue and sore arm again. I am around 60 so idk if my age helped or not----Good luck- praying all will be fine!!!!!
  • I have to say there have been times when I have just put on my mask and kept in on in stores or when I ran errands then still wore it in the car- I thought nothing of it- so maybe some people just forget about it until they get home-- I just don't want to forget to wear it when i do need it- until I feel comfortable--- and…
  • So glad that you are back-- sorry about your double loss- that has got to be hard-- but I am glad that you are focusing on your health again-- take it slow- don't race-- keep your focus-- do whatever you need to do- if its count calories or whichever program works for you-- you might have to explore because some time one…
  • Well As a part-time educator- I have taken all both of my shots(pfizer)- No problems and no side effects- just a sore arm after the second one- I took a couple of tylenol after I got home and felt fine. I pray it goes well for others also! I can't wait to get back in the classroom asap--- I am 60 so I was waiting even…
  • Daniwilford--- I agree that sometimes you have to just spend time trying to figure out better tasting lower calories swaps of foods- check out YouTube videos etc.--Does your thinking about food cause you to over eat so that you gain weight? PS- don't but out all the foods you enjoy- that is a recipe for disaster with me-
  • Glad you are feeling better-- thankful that the vitamin supplement seem to help
  • Hello we are so glad to have you here. You will find lots of support, good ideas and information here. Best of luck to you
  • I do grocery shopping for myself and an elderly friend. I limit it to once every other week IF possible and I go in morning or early afternoon and quick in and out, ONLY a store that I am familiar with so I know where each item is on the shelves. In GA- we still have so many who will not wear a mask or even social distance…
  • Reenie - you can and will do this! 2020-- is a year that we ALL wish would just BE OVER---- Start when you are ready and don't feel ashamed or even angry with yourself-- I know i have to do some re-thinking and getting my mojo back as well
  • I like them also----
