  • This is not healthy. You may lose weight but,you didn't lose it in a healthy manner. If you continue doing this you will be starving yourself and the outcome will not be pretty.

  • I love Bananas! They are very good. When I was on WW (since the fruit was free and some vegetables) I would make myself a little tray as a nighttime snack! I would take whatever fruits and vegetables were in the house cut them up and place them in a circle around a center of dipping sauce. Usually,ranch dressing for the…

    in When you can't count a food Comment by Alice230 October 2011
  • WW and MFP are virtually the same thing. The only difference is that with WW they count the calories for you through points. WIth MFP you have a computer track the calories for you by entering what you've ate. I really couldn't stand calculating every time I wanted to eat something and I didn't want to attend all those…

  • It's kind of funny since all diets are based on pretty much the same principle.

  • Okay you are going to do what you are going to do and I understand that. Let me just warn you that this is something you should NOT DO EVER! It is not healthy and does absolutely NOTHING for your colon. It can also be dangerous. These cleanses and Colonics are not doing anything your colon would not do on its own and it is…

  • For now I just ride my bike or walk. I cannot run. I sprained my ankle years ago and ever since if I try and run I get this sharp pain in my ankle. It seems like it's a certain way I place my ankle because it happens sometimes when I walk up the stairs too. Usually only in bad weather though.
    in How often should you exercise? Comment by Alice230 October 2011
  • I took a few classes because I have horrible anxiety. I left feeling extremely peaceful. There are studies that suggest that people who do yoga weigh less and make better eating decisions. I was not there long enough to know if it would help with weight loss. I do plan to go back at least once a week when I can get the…

  • Welcome aboard! I have heard about Zumba but,I didn't know if it would actually work. You know how many things out there claim to work and never do.

  • Hello welcome to the community. There are a lot of supportive people here who can keep you motivated!
    in Looking for MFP friends with similar goals :-) Comment by Alice230 October 2011
  • Can you buy your own food so you don't have to eat in the cafeteria? How about for every ten pounds you lose you buy yourself some other kind of treat you want that you can afford? Like a pair of earrings or an ice cream.
    in lack of motivation. Comment by Alice230 October 2011
  • I kinda have my doubts because look at people with Bulimia and anorexia. They are always so thin. I know it's not right to be that way and I wouldn't consider it,it's not healthy. But,if your body goes into starvation mode why are they so thin?
    in For those who do NOT believe in starvation mode Comment by Alice230 October 2011
  • Tell them when you are working out it is your ''personal time'' and you are NOT to be disturbed unless someone is going to die within the next hour!
    in Anyone else feel this way?? Comment by Alice230 October 2011
  • I can't say it won't work for you but,I failed miserably when I did this. Sure you start off great but,then you let yourself go more and more because there is accountability. You can eat something just eat fruit if you get hungry after you don't have any calories. Or exercise more and earn more calories but,you have to be…
    in Anyone not counting? Comment by Alice230 October 2011
  • Well,I was diagnosed with it a few years ago and it only seems to flare up whenever I get really anxious or stressed. What I do is suck on a peppermint and rub some Icy Hot on my abdomen. It seems to help immediately. It has never affected any weight loss for me.
    in IBS Sufferers! Comment by Alice230 October 2011
  • Yes,you can count it because there is a section under cardio that says ''cleaning''. You just put how long you did it for and it will tell you how many calories you burned.
    in do i count this as exercise? Comment by Alice230 October 2011
  • I don't know what the effects are but,I have heard that the French use cigarettes to not eat as much. Either way I know two things 1). When you quit you gain weight and 2). Smoking is just not good for you.
    in what are the effects of smoking on weight loss? Comment by Alice230 October 2011
  • Absolutely not. That is dangerous. Anything could have happened at that age. I don't care if it was just two minutes. They need constant supervision. You can't even leave a 5 year old home alone let alone a 4 month old. The parent instinct must be left out of some people..
    in Leaving a 4 month old alone to go jog? Comment by Alice230 October 2011
  • Try music or some kind of hobby that you like. Or you could try a warm bath or exercising.
    in emotional eating Comment by Alice230 October 2011
  • I just have to add you can fool yourself..maybe but,you won't fool anyone on this forum. Excuses won't fly. Everyone is very supportive and want you to succeed and be healthy. That's why excuses just won't work here.
