I love strawberry frosted mini-wheats. Thanks, good idea. :)

I have had a problem with eating sweets at night and I am trying to choose healthier snacks. :)

Thanks Michelle! Is low fat yogurt O.K.?

ZAPPY ! :)

Yes, thank you.This is what I am trying to say. :)

Love to make people smile! :)

I don't understand clean eating. My idea of clean eating would be perhaps no junk food, salty or fattening foods. Just healthy lean meats, fruits and veggies. :)

I had trouble with sciatica in the past, and had to go for physical therapy. The therapy was really helpful. Perhaps your doctor could refer you to a physical therapist. I was also given exercises to do at home as well. I know the pain you are going through. It is miserable. Walking at a moderate pace also helped me as…

I don't know if you can get it where you live, but my husband and I buy Heiner's 35 calorie whole wheat bread. :)

Me without coffee is almost like a day without sunshine. Coffee is fine. I drink my coffee black, but if you add sugar or special creamers, you might have to limit the things that you add in your coffee. It can add the calories that many people don't realize. :)

I know a great web site that you may find lots of delicious healthy snacks. I hope this will be helpful. :) www.pinterest.com ( EASY HEALTHY SNACK ON THE GO )

One of my husbands homemade biscuits! Yum!

Another great thing that you can do is tell her to always be active and choose healthy foods and snacks and she won't have to worry about gaining a lot of weight. Healthy living, and portion control is the key. It will be up to you of course, but it is also ok to have an occasional eat out (fast food) day. :)

I haven't been feeling well and my 5 year old granddaughter prayed for me, she said, "Dear Jesus, please make my granny feel better, Amen "

I love peanut butter M&M's. I buy the snack size bags, but it would be more economical to do it your way. :)

Hi Mary, I will be 62 in March. I do not do facebook. My kids have told me that I would enjoy it if I tried. I am not to good with computers in the first place.So I haven't tried it yet. LOL After saying all of this, I have found that when we eat healthier, we feel much better. I don't always eat right, but I try. My…

shadow2soul, I thought this info was very interesting. Wow, what a difference in calories when we guess our portions instead of measuring them. Thank You ! :)

Birds Eye California Blend veggies( broccoli, cauliflower and carrots) steamed. Just add a little black pepper or your favorite spices. Yummy! :)

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the great ideas. :)

Can you count decaf coffee as part of your water intake? :)

Thanks for the ideas. What about Gogurt , the yogurt in the tube? Would that be O.K. ? :)

I love peanut butter and sliced apples. Yum! :)

I am very glad you chose a healthier lifestyle. Just remember , one day at a time, one step at a time. Also, try to get some exercise every day, but consult your doctor first, as to what you are allowed to do. Good luck on your journey to a healthier lifestyle. :)

My 5 year old granddaughter said," I love you Granny". :)

My family loves (DEER MEAT). We mostly roll it in flour and fry it in a small amount of margarine, with salt and pepper. It is delicious when, after frying the meat, add a can of fat free low sodium mushroom soup, Don't add water to the soup. Let it simmer long enough to warm the soup. Yummy! Delicious! :)

I have learned that its O.K. if I have an off day and eat things that I shouldn't, without feeling bad about it. . This doesn't mean that I am a failure. God willing , tomorrow is another day. :)

Hello, I am 61, will soon be 62 years old. I have been with MFP for quite a while. I live in a rural area, so I mostly walk or jog. I'm not perfect when it comes to healthy eating, but I try. :)

I used to weigh almost 240 pounds and I am only 5ft. 3 in. tall. I don't know why, but it took me several years to realize that the kinds of food that we eat can make us feel sluggish, tired and even sick to our stomachs. I thought it was that I was eating too much. Overeating didn't help , but I found that when I started…

Perhaps your mom used some spices that you are not used to eating. I hope you are feeling better. :)

You keep up the good work. It is something that you love and you will be better and better with time. The way the instructor treated you was very uncalled for. Stay with the instructors where you feel confident. Don't give up what you love. :)
