  • Hey! Thank you for the thorough reply! I'm wanting to be active 2-3 times a week doing light activity. 1-2 times walking at a pace to elevate heart rate for 15-30 minutes and longer sustained walks through nature trails with inclines/terrain at least once a week. This is where I plan to start to build up my stamina so I…
  • Yes! This week I didn't have a lot of those things at my disposal for meals, but with grocery shopping tomorrow I'm planning on incorporating nuts and avocados regularly in my meals.

  • There was quite a conversation going on while I wasn't here! So, let me clarify a few things that I feel were good faith comments and others that were not so much and for some reason chose to insert assumptions that would no way be inferred by what I posted: My nutritionist and I discussed two things: Addressing the…
  • Thank you for taking the time to reply! My nutritionist was very supportive of my goal to create a sustainable diet. She didn't give me a specific calorie number to hit, just the carb amounts and it was something that could be flexible if I found it wasn't enough! After recording my food for today is where I realized I was…
