I found reading the diet myth helpful. He goes into each type of diet scientifically. Talks a lot about the gut biome, which is still pretty mysterious.

Also, I am walking 2.5 miles a day. Excercise helps me manage my moods better.

I’m sorry you have depression. I needed to go on medication for a while. I was on it for a winter. Then I dropped it. Then the next winter I went back on and stayed on for a year or a year and a half. And I started therapy. I’ve been in therapy with this therapist for maybe 18 months? It’s a real process, we’ve drastically…

Me too.

Today for self-care: I made a mail run to work at 7am. I was in and out in 1/2 hour. There was one other person in the building and I didn’t see him. I work at a school in the accounting department, so i have some work even though we are all doing e-learning. I went for a walk with my husband. I did my upper body workout.…

That sounds like a great time and heartwarming for your daughter’s coach. I know coaches and teachers miss “their kids.”

I always just cut up a banana and a cutie (mandarin orange)

Do we want to start a group? My timeline is covered with ads.

I’m 5’2 and need to lose 80 pounds Older also, I’ll be 50 this year! We’re mostly stuck at home right now, so my husband and I are taking 45 minute excercise walks M - F. That helps.

I’ll send you a pm with my email address.

One is autistic and he needs me to be strong.

This is what keeps me going when I am most depressed. I can’t give up for my kids.

Maybe therapy or go to the doc if you think things are going wrong. I’m in therapy, so dont take offense

Wine is my largest obstacle. Good job walking away! I am slowly working on it here.

I home cook as well. I mostly eat Whole Foods, like an egg with some melon and an apple. Or Greek yogurt with banana and orange. Then at night I make a meal that I put in the recipe builder and measure out my portion before giving it to the family. Or, I don’t go to eat. ;(. No, I just have to scrounge more Whole Foods,…

Thanks!

I drink a lot of wine. I accept that it means my weight loss may be slower. I am trying to reduce quietly with myself. Any external forces piss me from and I then drink more. Plus, I have anxiety, and, sad as it is to say, wine helps reduce those feelings.

Gah. I a. Going to do the workout for 30 minutes challenge, but with walking.

Or depending b your diet, choose one meal a month to healthy up, or 1/2 healthy up.

But. Drastic diet changes can effect gut processing. Usually I eat really well, so 2 days of restaurant foods will send me to the bathroom for a full clean out.

My entire family has been in the toilet 4 times a day for a week. And bombing the car. So nasty.

Stick around lady. ;)

Wow! Thank you so much for sharing. I doubt anyone would have guessed dehydration as you were actually drinking plenty of water. Makes one think as I suffer from muscle cramps

1/3 plain Greek yogurt with 1 banana and 1 mandarin orange has been my most successful.

With the meats, like pork loin, cooking on George Forman is going to o be great. I actually use mine a lot more than I exoected g

Poor mama, it’s ok. I will cook for her

My mom is 78, thus elderly. She is being diagnosed with a rare disease like arthritis but in the muscles. She was eating healthy and working until the week before she became ill (in a daycare). The medication is working, so with PT I expect another 10 years of quality living our of her. But her doc says no more gluten,…

Being fickle, I plan and shop for 3 days at a time. A lot of people plan and shop for a week. My friend is starting to menu plan for a month.

I am not willing to live that way. So I am trying to have 2 breakfast choices. Reliable snacks. A soup that last 4 days. And a different, inspiring dinner every night. My breakfasts are yummy. . . 1/3 cup Greek yogurt with a banana and orange or melon and grapes. And I like the soups. Eating nuts can be a chore, but there…

I have not found that app. Hubs is a fuel eater. M-F same fast Same lunch Same snacks For like 15 years My dinner, but we have catered to him. So if he gets a little soft on the middle, he can drop an almond and fix it.
