I haven’t weighed myself in a couple days..I finally got to 5lbs lost & then I’ve just felt weak the past week..not tired but like my muscles have no strength, it’s weird. Also I went in for a root canal yesterday & came out with a tooth extraction, that has derailed my listing streak. I have got to get back on track. I’m…

https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/comment/48530603#Comment_48530603 Yakky- that soup looks soooo good! I don’t eat much meat but I love soups! Totameafox: does the zucchini get mushy on the pizza? Regardless it looks delicious. My husband & son could eat pizza everyday but it’s sooo many empty calories. I…

so simple! I’d been making the same 12 dinners on repeat for 5 yrs. I thought I was just a bad cook, but I just hadn’t explored many recipes outside of what I ate growing up. Proud of myself, my first marinade & it was so easy, low calorie & delicious

loved this super simple recipe I made tonight. You mix the spices & olive oil to make a marinade then add your zucchini, chicken (I used Ouorn meatless cutlets) & onion. Bake on 425 for 30 minutes! I used to tell myself..I’m a busy mom, I don’t have the time to make a nice (non Campbell soup base) dinner. I’m learning that…

I am definitely! Going to try that. I feel like my kids would also enjoy that. Thanks so much!

I’ve been trying to think of ideas for sweet potatoes. I know they are really nutritious. I’m going to try dipping some fruits in chocolate as well!

happy with how this new recipe turned out. Whole family enjoyed it (even my 4&5 yr olds). Quick & easy, 1 pan. Nutritious. Bag of qourn meatless chicken pieces . Bunch of asparagus Head of broccoli Fresh pesto Bag of frozen peas Salt & pepper. squeezed half a lemon over the top.

I appreciate the help & words! I feel fine for the most part, just stressing over what is next for my treatment. I got referred to a specialist so I’m sure it will be over soon. I eat lots of Greek yogurt & my cottage cheese also have live cultures. I’m going to go try to eat some garlic.

Really hoping to get back on track this week. I’ve been dealing with an antibiotic tolerant infection (UTI) not a huge deal but I’m sure it’s effecting me In ways I’m not noticing. I’ve over ate through my calories most days this week after doing really well my first 20 days of calorie counting. It’s still early. Not too…

ugh..I’m sooo hungry today. I just ate 2 boiled egg whites & I still want to eat. Ive been so tempted to just throw in the towel today & binge. But I know that could easily throw me off track. It’s 5 o’clock & I only have a lil over 400 calories for my dinner & beyond.. this hasn’t been my best week

Like model photos on a profile that has no actual information..like at least put some effort into your catfish scam lol

I bounce around 2-5 lbs all week long. Not really losing anything, then I drop a lb all of a sudden. I’ve lost 3.4 lbs in a month. I have to weigh myself at the same time everyday or my weight is all whacky.

looks like your making good progress! Changing our lifestyles doesn’t happen overnight, I think you’re on the right track! Awesome job!

I’m definitely a sugar addict! I used to snack on candy & treats ALL DAY! The more I eat healthy I find myself craving it less, I think healthy foods help level out your blood sugar. Also I’ve found that frozen grapes are my go to snack when I’m craving my favorite hard candy.

I second the post from above! If you really want to get serious, use measuring cups to make your plate. Make your plate less than you would normally eat & go back for seconds if you are still hungry. I usually do not go back for seconds but, if it’s already on my plate I feel I need to clear my plate. I do not do the food…

I can relate 100% to this. I’m a stay at home mom of 2 under 5 & it’s hard to remember that I have my own wants & needs in life because I’m always doing something (mostly unappreciated) for my family. I have rediscovered myself, thank goodness, hopefully you can do the same, if helps so so much! Prayers! Being a SAHM is…

I have extreme anxiety. Especially when my kids are not with me. When they are at school, with grandparents..etc. I over eat to take my mind off of my irrational thoughts.

Also in recovery 8 yrs! Congratulations, time to reinvent yourself into the best possible you!

I make a chic pea salad with, Chic peas Green onions Celery Red grapes Mayo (I need to find a lighter substitute) A lil mustard Dash of dried dill & poultry seasoning.

I did the okios coco, peanut butter yesterday! It was very good! I will have to try the mixed berry. I also discovered that I can get lots of fruit in if I take some 0 sugar ready whip & put it on my fruit! 15 calories per 2 tablespoons, I stir my fruit in so the whip is covering it. Really yummy dessert replacement

I did it wrong the first time..I wrote something I’d hope to start believing about myself lol I’m horrible at directions.

Yay! I love learning about people. We may all be in different situations, lead different lives, but we are all here! I have been cutting a lot of food dyes/chemicals/ artificial EVERYTHING! Out of my family’s diet, it’s hard when the food I grew up on was cheap & not great quality because my parents didn’t know any better.…

I am a strong woman. Mentally & physically. I am a great mother.

I ate 300+ extra calories today..& it’s the first time in 2 weeks I didn’t long something I ate. I knew I was way over, so I just felt discouraged to log it. I did get in my longest strength training workout in today. I felt good mentally & physically I’m not sure why I over ate. Tomorrow is a new day.

I am a strong woman. Mentally & physically.

Today I.. Did a 20 minute strength training workout Danced crazy with my kids Got my son involved in a club at school

I’ve been trying to add more yogurt/milk, egg whites into my diet. I’m still falling a bit short. Maybe I’ll hold off on the powder. Some days I’m meeting my 85g goal but I really have to focus on eating protein rich foods.

I’m going to have to look for the Halo ice cream. Thank you!

I am definitely! Going to try this one. Thank you. I’m always having trouble meeting my protein goals so this would help me ALOT!

I did a great 20 min strength workout today..but then I turned around and ordered a BLT with homemade (fried) potato chips… only 750 calories left for the day (only 1pm now). Feeling guilty, especially since my weight was up on the scale this morning. What am I doing!! Lol
