I've been having good luck with nuts/nut-based meal bars/snacks that are specifically high in protein while still being in the calorie range of what I'm wanting to eat. I know a lot of people here have issues with different meal replacements, but they're great if you're always running late to get out the door to work or…

Which natural thyroid are you on? I've been trying for years to get someone to prescribe me Armour...

Yep. The Android app does at least.

I do, on Saturdays my husband and I go out to eat with our friend and his family. He loves to take us to various ethnic buffets, so I have no clue what I'm eating, so that makes it hard to count calories.

I recently had that conversation with the daughter of a friend. We're both dieting, and at the moment we weigh about the same. After going "how the h3ll do you weigh the same as me?!?" I did the "oh yeah, you're a foot taller than me..."

Being able to make a work-appropriate dress with the same amount of fabric I now use to make a shirt. Being able to buy clothes off-the-rack in general.

I use the vivofit 1, don't know if that would help you? The Garmin app on my phone talks to MFP and it shows in the calories burned for exercise. It works much better than the app for the UP24, which I used to have.

I'd check the Woman Within. I'm a 42F and really like anything labelled "medium" or "high" impact. If I wear anything else to do pretty much anything (yard work, walking...) it kills my back.

Growing up, I didn't have a ton of fruits and veggies in the house; my mom said that they were too expensive and I would eat them all in one sitting. However, we had junk food around all the time. The upshot, now given a choice between fruit and candy, I'll pig out on fruits and veggies, so I have less temptation to be…

My husband and I started with the whole SlimFast plan. Then we took the calorie counts and started getting real food. I do really like the shakes for breakfast, since I have a hard time waking up on time, and it's something that I can grab and go instead of something junky. (Also, the Wal-Mart brand (cans) doesn't have…

My husband and I "eat" the Wal-Mart brand diet shakes a lot. We don't have much money either, and it's almost cheaper than living off ramen. Otherwise, we really like the Belvita breakfast biscuits, they're tasty, high in fibre, and have a pretty good shelf life. (I really don't like to cook for breakfast/lunch)
