Just fresh iceberg wash thoroughly at home

I don't drink milk except for a little but in my coffee. I love cheese and most dairies but I have to stay away. They just don't agree with me. I use olive oil to cook of I'm in the mood for an omelet or want my veggies grilled. Decided to go low carb and low calorie as opposed to just Atkins because I was having problems…

Great info thanks!! Throughout my adult life I've always been a very routine eater not changing it much. I've been doing Atkins since in my teens if that gives you an idea on what I've regularly eaten throughout my life. This is the first time I do low carb low calorie and I'm actually enjoying it until now.my major…

O wow. No I buy fresh iceberg lettuce. I really don't care for the prebagged stuff.

Thanks everyone for the replies. End result looks like I do need to get a hold of my doctor.

This is a whenever pain. Sometimes I wake up with a dull version of it in the morning and other times it's usually a little while after I eat.

Lower back spreads to my right lower front area where your uterus is.

That is exactly where it hurts but it's a constant "don't even move because it hurts so bad" pain.I've been trying to cut out as much fat as possible

Request sent. You look great!! Kudos to you!#

I do a special k bar in the morning with my coffee and a baggie of cucumbers no peel with a dab of tajin in between meals

I have IBS at oposing extremes. Basically I never know how it's going to hit me. I'm coming out of high blood pressure. At first the restrictive diet no salt no flavor no milk no meat was not for me it felt like no anything but I have to agree with the above post keeping it fresh is the best way to go and you get used to…

Hi . I'm 39 almost 40. Raising 6 kids right now by myself also with minimal support. I started at needing to lose 100 lbs and have lost 44. Still 56 to go. You guys can friend me. I try to respond daily to everyone's posts.

Amazing. Keep up the great work. You look excellent!! Good for you.

Hi. You can add me. I try to log everyday but I'm not at the point yet where I feel comfortable having an open diary. My journey started about 80 days ago without MFP then with. This is my second time using MFP. I started at 100 lbs to lose and blood pressure too high and on meds. I've lost 45 lbs and my blood pressure has…

Feel free to add me. I'm about 80 days including the time before I started using MFP again. Starting goal was 100 lb loss. 55 more lbs to go.

I'm 5'4". Started at 234 in a tight size 16 am now down to 206 and now in a extremely loose 16. I could literally pull by jeans down without unbuttoning them but can't find a size 14 that doesn't fit so tight in the front. Lol

I log just what I eat. As of lately, due to issues with my blood pressure and a minor scare about a week and a half ago, I've been coming in under 1000 calories pretty much ever day. The doc gave me strict orders of a very bland diet under 1200 calories with the hope of the weight loss helping with my blood pressure. MFP…

Hey thats awesome that you are maintaining at that weight for your pregnancy. I tried to do that during my last pregnancy and had to just put it on the shelf for a while. I never stopped getting morning sick and I would get it whenever. Needless to say I was eating and drinking stuff I shouldn't just to get thru it.…

Lol the dreaded plateau. I know what's funny I had to do a double take at your post. I started at 234 and am dreading getting to the 170s because of the plateau. In the past I get to that same point and plateau. I've gotten so frustrated I give up but not this time. I've been reading about plateaus and everything says the…

Please feel free to add me. My weight has been up and down all my life and after my last kids I fell in a slump and gained everything I had lost plus some. I started about a month ago. My blood pressure has never home down since having the twins and they as 17 months now. I've had a few scares healthwise and with 6 kids…

Wow major congratulations!!!you are such an inspiration. You got me when u said you were rapidly losing the ability to do things. That's what motivated me do something about my weight. Im going to use your post for motivation whenever I get down or stuck as a reminder that YES IT IS POSSIBLE!! Good for you. You look…

I just started using the forums and it's great. Definetly you can do this! Some days are good and some days aren't but we all have them. It awesome to be able to invest in helping other people reach a common goal. I have 81 more lbs to go. You can add me.

I have chronic eczema in my family. I've treated mine with steroid creams which has not worked on my oldest daughter but did for me. My sister treated her daughter's scalp with oatmeal baths everyday. She said it worked wonders and was eventually able to switch her over to oatmeal based creams.

Ok thanks

Awesome. Thanks!! Does anyone know if you have to log out of the app for it to update friends added?

Hey. I'd love to join in. I also have 100 lbs to lose. I had lost a ton of weight in 2014 then got pregnant with twins.

This is the heaviest I've ever been even though I've always struggled with my weight.…
