ps- I have a sister who does OMAD (one meal a day) IF. I could never do it, but she loves it. She has a one hour eating window, and literally eats anything she wants...some days are nutritious and other days, not so much. (she hates counting calories) She lost 30 pounds in the first 2.5 months. I wouldn't necessarily…

Which IF schedule are you following? There are many different ones, and some may be easier to get started with if you find yourself so hungry you want to binge when you break your fast. I follow a 4:3 (feast 4 days, fast 3 days) because it suits me well and I enjoy the food days off. After the first week, I found it was…

Today marked 6 full weeks back to the gym with just one rest day a week :) Every weight machine has increased from 30% to over 100%! Feeling soo much stronger already especially in my core! (smallest gains are on my arms..I have to be a little careful as I'm without lymph nodes on one side and have some missing on the…

@Bella_Figura Not sure if this would help, but it did for me: Intermittent fasting, with 4:3 schedule. (it works by 'feasting' 4 days, and 'fasting' 3 days of each week.) On 'feast' days, you can eat a bit more freely, but still be mindful of choices. (like, don't go crazy and eat tons of junkfood) ...I aim to be at my…

Imagine picking up a 25 pound weight..that's a victory!) Celebrate your…

mash it up, stir in a little vinegar (or a lot, I love vinegar lol)..some garlic, salt/pepper and use in tossed salad as dressing. Also mashed, with dill (or dill relish), lemon juice and a little onion makes fabulous tartar sauce for my broiled fish. :)

@Bella_Figura Try avocado in place of fatty spreads like mayo. Example, I mashed some up, added dill and lemon juice and a bit of onion/salt to make "tartar sauce" for my fish the other day. :) (super yummy!) As for the cereal or any other fiber sources you add, do make sure you're drinking a bit of extra water since each…

edit: (missed the editing window)..I mis-typed the calories of Fiber Buds. It should be 110 per 1/2 cup (not 180) Also, lentils are really great too. (wish I liked more of them, lol)

I'm new to MFP, but an experienced constipation sufferer, so jumping in here as my first post. :) I'm not sure how to better reach primarily 'soluble' fiber, but will share there is one low-calorie, small portion breakfast cereal that is the magic fix for me: Kellogg's All Bran Buds. Just a 1/2 cup packs 17 grams of fiber…
