Hi all. With the newsfeed gone, I’m going over to Lose It! It has everything I needed from MFP, a good community and activity feed and it’s cheaper. Hope to see some of you there. I’m active under “Kat” and in the MFP Exodus group.

  • If you’re worried about hypertension, then you’d probably be looking to reduce Sodium intake. The Dash diet has some good low sodium options/recipes. Otherwise, what everyone else said. Best diet is one you can sustain indefinitely.

  • According to California...my fishing rod causes cancer. 🤷🏼‍♀️. Honestly, unless you plan on eating your dumbbells, I wouldn’t worry about it. At this point, I can’t think of anything that doesn’t cause cancer in California.

  • Try looking up some dash diet recipes, since those are usually lower in sodium and do your best to minimize packaged/processed foods, since those usually have a lot of sodium. Getting some regular exercise/activity and losing excess weight can help too. Good luck!

  • Small little changes and patience. Don’t worry about being perfect, just be good enough. The key is to find something you can stick to indefinitely. Do you cook the meals at home? If so, then you have a lot of control. Cook meals that for the family that work for all of you. I eat pretty much the same as my husband/kids.…

  • I don't have specific recipes, but the DASH diet is known to have low sodium recipes, since the primarily objective of that diet is heart health, helping to control blood pressure, etc. I'm sure if you google "dash diet" recipes, you'll probably be able to find something low sodium.

  • Safeway has these delicious mini-bagels (blueberry are my favs) that they sell in a bag. Put them in a toaster and then some whipped cream cheese on them..super yummy and small enough where I can work them into my eating plan on a regular basis. My only complaint about bagles in general is the same with food in general.…

  • I haven’t seen any good science that states it’s bad in moderation. Obviously, I wouldn’t drink gallons of the stuff per day, but I like the flavor and drink it in moderation. Water gets boring after a while. I’m sure I’m assuming some risk...just like eating bacon now and then or having wine. Meh, I’ll take it.
