  • Hi there! Ibs warrior going on 12 years. Definitely track your triggers. Mine are red meat, eggs, full fats, most veggies are hard for me, and anything fried. I do use probiotics and find them helpful. I use vsl#3 it’s over the counter, Walgreens carries it. Stress and lack of exercise are also personal triggers of mine. I…
  • The last time I went to Disney was in 2014. At that time you could bring in your own food and drinks. So I was able to pack my own healthier options! Check and see if this is still the policy, if it is, you can pre plan your snacks and relax during meals. If you have a healthy snack ready to go, I find it’s easier to not…
  • Hi there! I’d love to be friends! Add me! I’m not strictly vegetarian, but eat a mostly plant based diet. Chickpeas are my jam! Let’s connect and motivate each other.
  • Congrats on your anniversary! Impressive! I have two anxiety disorders and what has helped me is making my work outs a priority. My anxiety sky rockets when I haven’t had my workouts.
  • Hey! I recently was stuck for a entire month at the same weight after losing 5lbs. It was very upsetting and discouraging. I stuck with my work outs and logged every day. Then the following week, all of a sudden, I lost 2, then the next week 1 more! Bodies can weird and frustrating at times! I know it is hard, but try not…
  • I get Horrible cravings! If you can stand the texture, I’ve found rice cakes useful. The different flavors are pretty good and only between 35-50 calories per cake. I grab a caramel one when I want sweet, or popcorn flavor when I want salty. They have helped me from over eating on other foods that are calorie heavy ( candy…
  • Hi there! I have Hashimoto’s too! I do no soy, mostly plant based, and buy organic when I can. No RAW veggies as others have said. Have cut out bread and I’m feeling better since I did that. I am working on reducing sugar, but it’s a challenge as I loveeeee sweets! Example of one of my staple meals I do Vega essentials…
  • Hi! Hypo here with Hashimoto’s. My levels were bouncing back and forth like crazy last year! Despite doing HIIT and working with a trainer I continued to gain weight. It was crazy! I finally saw a endo in November, and she was really helpful. I’m on the correct dose pattern for me (finally!) and I have lost 7 lbs since…
  • Hi! I’d love to be one of your buddies. We have so much in common! I’m in my early 30s and looking to lose 20lbs. I was a distance runner also, but my knees have decided I can no longer do that, so I’ve found new ways to work out. . I’ve also struggled with binge eating, and I continue to struggle with it today. Please…
  • Hi! I’ve struggled being overweight my whole life too. I started with MFP in November 2017. What has helped me a lot is drinking enough water everyday so I’m properly hydrated and then I’m less hungry/ eat less so I can lose weight. I’ve noticed often times when I thought I was hungry I was really thirtsy instead! I…
  • Hi there! Sorry to hear you're struggling with depression/ being consistent. I've struggled with depression in the past, for me it can be really challenging to get out of bed and get moving! I try and find accountability buddies who are helpful, positive, and have similar goals. For example my sister (who lives across the…
  • Hi kballssocc! Thanks for reaching out. Glad to know I am not alone in the struggle! I am not near the end of my goal, still have 20lbs to go to get to a healthier weight for my height. I am trying for 1lb a week. And it was working till it came to a grinding halt. So maddening. I weigh every day and have the averages, so…
  • Thank you for replying! I started lifting the exact time the stall began. Twice a week, I’m doing low weight/ high rep. I do not have a food scale, I have been looking to buy one. Do you have a recommendation for a brand or model you like? I have been using the verified entries in the database. I do have a question about…
