  • Please friend request me! I'm 43, and would like to lose about 20-30 pounds, definitely need some accountability and I really like to help and encourage other people. My family is filled with diabetes, heart disease, amputations, limited mobility and poor eating habits...I feel the urgency to have a good health-span as…

  • Trisharrell76 - Don't feel too bad about it - I messed up last night and binged on ice cream and apple crisp :( It's always late night, when I'm exhausted and stressed and make terrible decisions. I guess I'm an all or nothing person. If something is highly processed/extremely full of fat/sugar/salt; then when a moment of…

  • I felt confident enough to wear a two piece bathing suit, for the first time in a very long time (I'm 42, have given birth and have the marks to show it - but honestly, feeling proud of that accomplishment is the correct way to feel, I think. Or maybe I'm just getting older and don't give a *kitten* what other people think…

  • Diabetes is in my genetics, big time, so I have to be very careful. The best information that I found about what causes diabetes and how to get rid of it is Dr. Neal Barnard - just google him. He's super informative and explains things very clearly, in my opinion. Good luck! Honestly, I would recommend not just 'managing…

  • I'm nearly the same size/shape as you - I'm 5'3 and about 152 pounds; I also want to lose about 30. It's hard being short because there isn't much wiggle room in the calories you can eat - I'm trying for 1200/day...that doesn't leave room for a lot of food, and I like to eat! Track EVERYTHING that you eat, and look at how…

  • You can friend me, I like to read people's food diaries too :) Mine is open, I find it helpful to be accountable - I'm honest, even when I haven't been eating the ideal diet. Keeps me on track, for the most part. Also, I'm nosy and I like to see what other people eat daily :smiley:

  • Had a physical and all my blood work was in normal limits, and my cholesterol was better than it was when it was last checked. Also, I lost over 6 pounds of fat and gained over 4 pounds of muscle since I'd last checked my body composition

  • I think staying busy is key - I've been better...it's just once in a while at night I totally just go nuts and eat whatever and how much ever. Not just a snack but multiple snacks of whatever the worst food I have around :( I think completely avoiding the kitchen is a good idea - like if I start with a little snack, I'm…
