This is a lifetime thing not a short term. Relax. Drink a glass of water Now aim for your mfp calories today. But remember indulging and enjoying the indulgence but not making it an every day thing is the key. Good luck and go you

Molokhia is more commonly called Egyptian spinach in the USA. I have grown it from seed in the past. It makes great wilted greens. https://migardener.com/store/99-seeds-by-category/vegetables/egyptian-spinach/

Yeah it was 9 hours with a lunch break and two bathroom breaks so probably lets call that 7 This is about a twice a year event.

Hi, Welcome some stuff to focus on Go thru the apps calculator set it for 1 lb a week. Get a food scale and start tracking everything as accurately as possible You don't need to drastically shift diet all at once small sustained changes are much better long term then short bursts of dramatic unsustainable changes You got…

He is an adult and gets to make his own food choices. I guarantee your pressure is making him much much less likely to want to make healthy eating choices. Stop it entirely. Do not question his choices or try in any way to pressure for at least 6 months. In July start taking a walk one evening a week and asking if he wants…

I tried for 40 days last year(for lent,). I had 4 days of addiction headaches as i went cold Turkey. I had trouble waking up, i was less gi regular, i missed the taste, my metabolism slowed a little. At the end of 40 days i looked at it and for me i decided to go back to drinking coffee. I drink mine black or sometimes…

It depends on your zone. I am zone 7 and have started artichokes and hot peppers to go outside. Everything else I have started I expect to live mainly inside.

I often add a wedge of lemon, lime, clementine or other random citrus to my water. It tastes good and smells good and is a great healthy option.

Personally no. They make me just crave food I can chew. Tea or coffee or ice water all work better as appetit suppressants for me. Also often gum. But if it works for you and your nutritional needs go for it.

I think different people have different ethical priorities. If you live within your own set of ethics that is a good thing. Often different ethical priorities conflict with one another. Minimal package vs accessible foods Local vs organic Vegitable based vs local in winter Meat vs processed vegan proteins

Try using a weight tracking app with a trendline. I use libra and hear happy scale is good for iphones. That way you watch the trend not the day to day variation

Is there a reason you drink your coffee that way? Bulletproof coffee is a method of adding fats and calories into a diet(often keto) and IF is a method to consume fewer calories by restricting what hours one eats. Do you like your coffee like that?

Vegan is not naturally healthier. Butter vs coconut oil for example one is vegan one is not but they are both fats and the same calories. Now if you swap in some low calorie veggies in place of high calorie animal based foods that might be a healthy choice. Why not try to work on calories and maybe adding 1 extra vegetable…

A food scale is the must have appliance

14 lbs ie 1 stone in 2 months is more then is realist for a woman who is only 159 lbs. You are already at a healthy bmi at that point aim for no more then 0.5 lbs a week or 4 lbs in 2 months

I love love love kc masterpiece bbq chips. My rule for myself is I can have them. I just can not buy them at the store. I can only buy the small snack size bag and only if when i want them i get up, walk to the 7 11 about half a mile and eat them. I can not prebuy and i can not buy more then the one smallest snack size .…

If the problem is you find the healthy options bland and boring perhaps try 1 new healthy but very flavorful and seasoned recipe per week. Lots of herbs and spices are really low calorie while adding lots of delicious flavors

Talk to your neurology doctor before you start a new diet.

I am back at mfp because i stoppeed l Weighing myself and logging daily and my weight went back up. I know i need to log and to log i need my weight. Daily perhaps not. So if you say go to a gym and weigh at the gym that woild probably be fine. But a scale is under 25 at Amazon and i would invest in one.

Remember how you felt 100 lbs ago. Someone telling you to lose weight woyld have probably had the opposite effect and ben demoralizing not encouraging. She knows she needs to lose weight. She needs to be the one to decide it is the time

Relax Likely a lot is water weight Today get back at it and stick with your good habits. If 50 weeks of the year you are following healthy habits and 2 weeks you lie around and eat nothing but junk food that is still a super healthy lifestyle

You know if a man posted Male friends only they would be called sexist. Behind a computer gender doesn't matter you are unlikely to meet anyone in person. No need to be sexist

Perhaps instead of calorie counting instead one thing to think about doing is teaching cooking. I know the kids in my life love foods that I have taught them to cook. So for example my neice loves loves veggie kabobs which she now makes for her family but I taught her how to make. So perhaps she can be taught to cook or…

Ham and cheese is classic. Cheese is wonderful but there are other flavors too. How about ham lettuce and whole grain mustard. Mustard is a very low cal very flavorful ad to sandwich.

I am not sure if this is good or bad but I no longer can shop the Victoria secret semiannual sale for bras. I went from a common 36c to a hard to find and not available at VS 30d

Happy dancing for you

Cerave heal and protect balm no touch stick. Rub it all in the chaffing areas. It is amazing stops chaffing , feels good, heals

Weight is mainly about what you eat or do not eat. Exercise is about health. 5 min a day is better then nothing but you won't burn significantly calories. Skipping 100 calo a day is easier then burning 100

Can you find them at a local store? Shipping would keep it a bad deal from usa

Great progress. Food intake is 90 percent of the battle. Exercise is great. Different goals can result in different plans. So do you have a goal? No clear goal then I would try to add in 30 min 3 days a week and have one of those 30 min a week be trying a new form of movement, run, walk, hike ,swim ,sail,yoga whatever…
