Thanks guys. I appreciate the responses. It's good to know it's a fairly common problem. I try to buy single serving things for this reason however no one seems to sell certain things I love like single slices of pecan pie lol. Yes, I will definitely log everything even though I'm not fond of over negative 1000 calorie…

I know this is an old thread, but was wondering if anyone had continued success treating their psoriasis through diet. I have had eczema for years but these new plaques on my trunk now point to psoriasis. Before starting a biologic that can affect my immune system, I wanted to try to clean up my diet. I had been eating a…

Hi! I love to cook and am always on the lookout for meal ideas. Hope I can be of encouragement to you too!

I'm currently the smallest I've ever been in my life. The holidays have always been tough for me so I'm just going to focus on maintaining and getting stronger this month. My goal is to be able to do stand up paddle boarding. Tried awhile back and I wasn't strong enough to get on. I took advantage of some black Friday…

Yesterday my 3 year old and I were at the neighborhood playground. There was a big family with lots of kids (brothers, sisters, cousins). They all had to leave just as my daughter was having fun with them. She sat there at the top of the slide and said "Everyone has to leave. I guess I have to play by myself." Being an…

https://www.cookincanuck.com/thai-chicken-salad-recipe/ I love a salad with a light peanut dressing. This one's my fave.

You must feel amazing! Go you!

The other day I took my 3 year old to Urban Air kid's gym. I had dutifully hung out in the toddler section with her where she stayed for quite awhile. All of a sudden she makes a run for the older kids section. I chase her as she runs toward the ball pit marked for kids at least 42 inches. She fearlessly jumps in and I get…

I'm trying to figure out my sense of style as an older millenial (38). Maurice's and Loft are my favorites and fall styles are in (yay!). I like a slightly form fitting top with a cardigan and jeans. The cardigan hides the parts I'm working on. I buy online sometimes but women's sizes are so different between brands that…

Wow! You really do look great!

Sounds like you are doing so well. Don't stop! What are the latest games out these days? I confess I stopped at wii but I would be the lone adult trying to play Dance Dance Revolution at an arcade lol

My childhood experiences with food have been on my mind lately lately especially having a 3 year old and witnessing my mom trying to get my daughter to join the clean plate club. Perhaps this thread is the perfect place to unload. I never had food insecurity (my mom did growing up in the Philippines), but I do feel…

You look so healthy and happy! No doubt it took work to get where you are. Amazing job!

That's awesome! You look very healthy and happy!

Same! Collarbone sticks out so much too but the thighs won't slim down. I'm trying more squats to firm them up, but we have to work with what we are given. Sigh.

Love the colors on your tat! Beautiful!

I have Beach Body and I alternated between Cize and Country Heat when I first started working out. With both workouts they go over the dance moves prior to putting them all together. It's a little repetitive, but it's kind of satisfying putting the moves all together at the end. The name of the dance move and the workout…

I'll be so excited to read you victory story. Your transformation is jaw dropping! Well done!

Yes I'd love to have more accountability buddies! Been on a plateau for over 2 weeks as I'm closing in on normal bmi. I find inspiration in reading other peoples successes and struggles. Love to cook and my diary is open.

You are glowing! Your body is all happy because you are doing all the right things. So inspiring!

My weight is up and down too! Been 50lbs heavier and I think 10lbs lighter (for about 2 seconds lol) than my current weight. Sometimes I feel mentally drained and some days I celebrate my NSVs. Would love to have a community to draw inspiration and strength from and vice versa. Let's do this!

I love to cook and post pics of some of my meals! Sounds right up my alley.

Hi! I'm looking for support and try to cheer people on too. I *think* I have about 20lbs left to lose. Haven't been my current weight in about 10 years (never been 20lbs lighter either) and it freaks me out lol. I'll friend request everyone I see right now. To good health and a positive relationship with food!

Need more friends too! I keep an open diary through good and bad days. Had a baby 9 months ago and it's time to let that baby weight go! Hope we can motivate each other.

Let's motivate each other!

Been chugging along for about a month and a half. It's starting to get harder but hanging in there. L

Awesome job!

Just added you! I'm 35 with an 8 month old daughter so I tend to stress eat. My diary is open so you can see the good as well as the bad stuff. Learning I can't eat as much as I used to to lose weight lol. Hope we can motivate each other.
