Ugh. I’ll put myself here. I’m 40 as of September. Some days I still think it’s the 90’s :wink:

Thanks for the support! That’s a great point about the bonus. I’m learning that big bonuses aren’t for every day... they are for sometimes. This is totally new for me! I have found myself asking am I hungry or do I ‘think’ I need to eat? So thanks for mentioning that as well.

Thanks! Yes. I have a scale and following a general food plan from a list my RD gave me. It’s more an ingredient list but I do follow it at the store. I have not found this easy or fun. Intriguing maybe. But it takes me longer to make food and then I have to log it. But I’m sure with time I will get faster. I’m seeing…

Thank you! I was thinking maybe I was doing something wrong. I guess since I’m eating regularly through the day as opposed to waiting mostly until dinner, I’m not “famished”, as I usually was, which I’m seeing made it hard to control the urges to eat everything in sight and then some. I appreciate your response. <3

I have this issue too and I just started myself. I also don’t “love” meat. I hate Greek yogurt. I noticed last night when I ate meatless chicken by Morningstar it had a ton of protein in it, low carbs. Other than that, I have nothing.

Have you heard of the fascia blaster? I have one (the medium size) and my sciatica issues are gone. I haven’t had that pain since I got it. You can Google it and read more about it. There’s also a fantastic Facebook group about it. I tried rolling and myofascial release and it would be gone for a few days and always…

I am recovering from many things. It’s a continued journey. I really wish you the best in healing and wholeness. ❤️

Thanks, ladies! <3

Does this taste like cauliflower and cheese or somewhat like Mac and cheese? I cannot stand cauliflower raw, steamed or cooked but I’ve also never had it covered in cheese, so I’m curious. Thanks!

Hello! My son is 2.5 but I’m in a similar boat. Im also older than you. ;) But I was high 160’s when I got pregnant, gained a healthy amount of weight during most of my pregnancy and lost most of it. And yet, somehow in 2.5 years, it’s crept on and then some. Would love to give and share support! And of course would love…

I look to Pinterest for recipes for smoothies and smoothie packs. There are tons! You can add chia seeds, handful of almonds or do some that are made with oatmeal. :)

Prioritize family meals?? Please. (Eyeroll)... Either that person doesn’t have kids, or isn’t the person that drives them or cooks for them. - Chick Fil A’s Market Salad with no toppings, nuts or dressing. If you have to eat in the restaurant, use the buffalo sauce as a dressing or something else. If you can take it home,…

Me! I’m 5’4 1/2 and plan to let go of at least 40. Add me. :smile:

How exciting!

Meeee! Newly 40 here

This was my issue last night and I ended up (unknowingly) going over my calorie count. Oops. I measured out in a 1 cup and that will be my go to from here on out. 1 cup of the pasta I had last night was huge for me. I should have stuck to that but miscounted. Live and learn.

These are amazing. We have been buying them for a few years but I stopped. But I’ll have to remember this the next time I have a pizza craving

Ugh. I’m the same way. I don’t want to eat anything before 9/10am. Nothing sounds good. My RD asks that I eat within the hour of rising. I want to gag.

Thank you! It was a really great salad. I brought it home and used a salsa as the dressing.

Hi. I just wanted to comment because I used to be tiny - size 4 for tops, 2, bottom. And when someone saw those pics they told me I was too thin. I was 20 and not at all trying to be thin. People equate round, full cheeks with health and youthfullness. Mentally tell them to stuff a sock in it if they mention anything but…

I just wanted to post to give you a virtual high five or a hug... whichever you need. It’s not easy. Hard days are part of life but it doesn’t make it easy. :)

They are high in sat fat (I didn’t notice at first as I am pretty new to reading labels), in case you are trying to watch that.

I enjoy their chocolate covered almonds.

I am in a similar boat. Add me if you like. I have no clue how to add someone. I am new as well. Welcome.

There are some curry recipes here on MFP.

Thank you. I noticed quite a bit was incorrect so I did verify and correct each ingredient. :)

I’m new here. Had no idea this existed. Thank you!

Thanks! I’m still learning how to plan and manage all of this. Very new here. I’m sure in time I’ll get better. Since I’ve just started, I would like to at least go a week and see if it feel reasonable. I am working with an RD, so I am sure while it may not be perfect, it’s doable. I could be changed later. :)

Hah! Believe me... the thought has crossed my mind!
