Hi! I am starting fresh again today as well. Actually I read September 1 is a great time for new beginnings- even better than New Years is. I wish you well! I have 100lbs to lose. I'm going to add you.

Hello! I would like to add you as a friend. I have 100lbs to lose and I am on here everyday. I believe you can lose weight if you believe you can. You're in the right place!

I think the urge to binge might come and go, if only for the reason that we've had binges (and had cravings) before...so our body & mind knows them. The best thing to do is wait them out. I quit smoking about 5 or 6 years ago, and every now and again I still get an urge to smoke. It's stupid, because I wouldn't even…

The thing about cravings is they will pass. Be patience and persistent- literally scream at yourself (or inside your head) that you will NOT put yourself through the mental, emotional and physical toll of a binge, it is NOT worth it and the little voice inside your head that keeps telling you to binge is just sending you…

I have a Magic Bullet, which is an older version of the Nutri Bullet if I'm not mistaken... I got it for $50 and I love it! It comes with 4 different mugs, so each person can make their own kind of smoothie. They're bigger than a cup but not enormous but still a good size. I find it blends really well and it came with a…

Thanks everyone! So many good ideas.

I thought those were drums lol

That + logging each the sodium of each food i set, such as frozen pizza, bread, etc.

I want to get a more complete picture of what I'm eating. I don't have a scale to weigh it. What if I measure out .75 tsp salt (1500mg) and used that throughout the day? I don't need to use up all of it, and I'd get a general idea of how much I do.

Banking calories? How do you do that?

Thanks everyone I think I'll have a higher calorie snack and start the day off with a bigger breakfast.

It boggles my mind how I could skip so many calories... I ate today about the same amount I usually eat. I'm not even that hungry, strange.

I relax and do something I enjoy to keep myself on track. I find adding reading, drawing with some music on (art therapy) or dancing, making crafts or whatever I like into my day helps refocus me as to why I am chasing the goals I am chasing. Our days can get so busy and the pressure to do it all can build fast and it's…

Hi Dennis, I wish you well on your journey. I am not sure but I have found 21 Day Fix Recipes to be heart healthy because they don't use a lot of oil or sauces but emphasize vegetables, fruits, whole grains etc. You don't have to sign up for a plan, you can Google or go on Pinterest and search for 21 Day Fix recipes.…

Haha thanks it was so odd! The first few times I added a smiley after my name, so maybe that's why it cut out the rest? Idk lol

I have 100lbs to lose and I want to get my life back on track too! Ever since I started gaining weight from binge eating everything's been going downhill for me. Depression and anxiety are real bummers! I'd love to have some more friends on this healthy journey! Feel free to send me a friend request.

Thanks Nyveaha I appreciate that. I'm trying to figure out how to send you a friend request..

I'm new and I would love to have some friends!

That is hilarious! I wrote more than that, what is going on?? Lol

Oh no, it cut off the rest of what I wrote! Let's try it again.... Hi I'm Adriana
