At maintain weight, it shows a little above 1,600 calories but it is at 1,200 for either 1 lb or 2 lbs loss a week. I wanted to lower it from 2 lbs to 1 lb a week but it is the same calories 1,200 limit. Oh well. I am not lowering my caloric intake below 1,200 nor am I trying to rush the process. I thought something was…

Thank you. I was not sure how to use it. I will try to put my snacks from the day there and see how I like it. If not, I will remove it. Not sure why I felt confused about it. Thanks.

I found there are free sleep apps you can use to help you improve your sleep. I think it takes time to improve your sleep and find one you like. Just another idea.

I think it helps to sort of tire yourself during the daytime or before sleep such as going to the pool or a good 15 to 30 minutes walk with some sunshine. These are things we think makes no difference but it can. Try a different room while you adjust your schedule. I had difficulty sleeping in my room for some reason. I…

I ate cottage cheese with lite syrup canned peaches. This has helped. I had some calories left so I snacked on almonds and cottage cheese with peaches again instead of something else that may not fill me up. Thank you.

This reminds me I have powder peanut buttet. Didn't know what to do with it. I will try this. Thank you.

I have gone to the doctor about it and even a specialist. They just give me an informational pamphlet to eliminate dairy.

Thanks. I will have to look and see what to look for. I have looked for the key word lactose- free in products but no luck.

Breyer vanilla lactose free. I can add a little of other toppings like caramel with nuts and sometimes cake crumbles or mixed berries. The trick is to stick to one scoop and take time to enjoy it. Also, I break ice cream sandwiches in half and it is usually enough than eating the whole thing at once. Usually, I share the…

I had tuna, meatloaf, salad and beans, so it isn't that I am not eating other needed nutritions. The hunger is very small but can be annoying. It could be I am wrestling not to go to food for comfort. I will look up smarter food choices and see if that helps. I have some cottage cheese I can try eating with fruits. Some…

I'd try switching to a healthier pizza. Try thin crust pizza and different brands plus try spinach pizza. Maybe even try making your own. I don't know what pizza you had though. Just something to think about. Also, you can order pizza without the tomato sauce. I didn't think that was possible, but it tasted good to me.…

I think you should eat something you really want and enjoy it and just remind yourself that this is that holidays and most people are going to overeat more than usual. The holiday is almost over. Just remember to stay active and try to eat a portion of what you really want but be forgiving. It soon shall pass.

Honestly? I think that setting a rigid goal like losing weight by 2017 or some event is very hard. You want to lose weight because you want to and make it a natural progress not because of the year 2017. It's just too hard in my opinion.

Thanks for your words. It is hard to just "mind my own business." It really is and so easy for someone else to say because they are so detached from the person. Not really how I like to hear it because it just sounds so harsh. I believe what started this fear was when my grandmother died--not related to overweight health…
