Oops..I sent a request before I posted :o I have an open diary and have logged 85+ days.

Same here.

This is my addiction, figuratively, of course.

The first thing I say to people like that is "Cite your source(s)." 100% of the time it's magazine articles, Internet Blogs, or Dr. Oz. Not once has someone provided me with a verifiably reputable source for their woo. Breakfast? I rarely have it. Personal trainer? I'm 56 and in the best shape I've been in in the last 20…

Click the person's picture, you'll get a pop-up. Click the photo in the pop-up and it will take you to their profile where you'll find an "Add As Friend" button.

I know the feeling. I left that "other place" nearly a year ago and just recently returned. Sent you a friend request.

I've never understood the all or nothing way of thinking i.e. you have to eat this and you can't have that. CICO works. Portion control works. If I'd followed a restrictive diet I never would have accomplished any of my goals.

What are your goals? Lose? Gain? Maintain? etc.

Congrats. I just reached my goal and going into maintenance. Sent you an Add request.

He recently had an "expert" on his show explaining how and why you need to "detoxify" your liver. I didn't watch. I could barely sit through the commercials for the episode.

Find another gym.

I just finished reading your blog and I have to say, simply amazing. Not just the weight loss, but the determination and goal orientation. I hope others will take the time to read it and perhaps be inspired in their own journeys.

Hey there. I've nearly reached my goal, having lost 43 lbs and have just 3 more to go. I'm in no rush; being in the ballpark is fine by me.

You've got a good attitude going in, and that can be half the battle. Request sent.

I've only a few more pounds to go to reach my goal. Always looking for new friends. Feel free to add me.

I'm not a nurse but I've been a patient more times than I care to remember. Feel free to add me if you'd like.

I've but one goal left to attain, and that's to get down to between 170 lbs - 165 lbs. I'm currently at 172 so the end is in sight.

My diary, too, is open for friends so feel free to add me. I just started logging again after taking a much needed MFP break for a few weeks.

It happens. Been there, done that myself a time or two. Don't let it get you down. Tomorrow's another day.

I'm just getting my MFP mojo back after taking a few weeks off. Sent you a request.

A province is an area of jurisdiction, much like a county in the US. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/province

Yum! Bananas. On my cereal, in my smoothies, or as a stand-alone snack. Love 'em, although they do tend to give me major gas at times.

^^^Ditto! Excellent article.

I suffered from GERD for years and was miserable. Anything I ate affected it. My doc had me on Omeprazole, 20 mg twice a day which worked great, but if I missed even one dose...ugh...major heartburn. Now that I've lost weight my GERD hasn't been an issue and I haven't taken any Omeprazole in months. If I do happen to get a…

Depending on where you live, there are number of online grocery delivery companies available. I use one for all my grocery shopping. If it's just frozen foods, Google is your friend for finding where to order frozen foods.

I can't stand canned soup. Homemade split pea and New England clam chowder are my two go-to favorites.
