first a question- is everyone- including the 1 yo 'puppy' fixed? because if not you are fighting a battle that cannot be won and is dangerous to everyone in the entire house. there is only one solution to that. if they are~ ignore the above, i just got a sense from that line that maybe they weren't. (and from the time…

hmm...imho. your vet shouldn't have offered the extreme diagnosis of "probably leukemia" w/o simultaneously laying out a plan to confirm or deny that diagnosis (there are many things, many far more benign, that can raise the lymph nodes) . was there no talk of a biopsy or ANY diagnostic work? honestly just throwing Ab's at…

oh wow- thanks for the info! i don't get headaches (i dunno why, just have never had one in my life) but i do already have low BP so i'll have to watch that as i lower my carbs. very good knowledge to have!

if you keep working so hard to lose the weight only to quickly regain it then something was wrong w/ how you lost it those times. the idea here is that you are NOT on a diet- you are making a lifestyle change. for good. forever. you need help to find out what will work for you as a permanent healthy life style. like if you…

yes it is time for a change. you're seeing the effects on your health that your weight has caused BUT you CAN reverse type II diabetes with healthy diet and exercise and losing weight. the ante has been upped for you to do this. you need to do this. and you can do this.okay? your post hints that you believe there is an…

you can do it! i go to gym 4-5 times a week and i have a cast on from knee down on one leg. you just use the machines that aren't weight-bearing like the bikes or the rowing machine or free weights while sitting down or any of the strength training machines- none of those should hurt your feet really...and if they do, then…

thank you for posting that OP, :smile: truly inspiring.

i'm gonna assume you are talking about anabolic steroids not corticosteroids or naturally occurring steroids....gosh the reasons not to take anabolic steroids are so numerous its hard to know where to start.....umm..liver damage? left sided ventricular damage? high-blood pressure (and all the associated health risks of…

call around to other local housecleaning companies and ask what they charge. you do not have to identify yourself as a competing housecleaning company just simply a person thinking about using their services. kwim?

huh? from a site called "WannaBeBig- serious about muscle" w/ pics of extreme body builders all over home page? sorry but i *think* that is a site aimed at body builders, certainly isn't on the average person's bookmarks. oh please on the "dogmatic" crap, the question was about how to not get bored w/ eating healthy and…

you probably already know this but just in case you don't...staying away from carbs as much as possible. your body (like mine) has an altered response to them.

water. oh maybe i'll go crazy and have a nice cuppa strong espresso that night so that i can stay up until midnight..or not.:yawn: depends on how entertaining the drunken posts here are, lol. (DBF will go to sleep at 8 pm like he always does, we have opposite biorhythms which actually works well- i get quiet time at night…

^^^ THIS.:smile: if you eat 100% truly "clean" or whatever you want to call it- you will find that your sense of taste will change over time and no longer want or crave "junk" food. there is no depriving oneself going on. (you should see the rocking all organic meals here- full of lovely tastes and colors = excellent, not…

GG Scandinavian CrispBread. 12 cals a dense slice and 2 net carbs. can't beat that! and they are ultra filling for some reason. i have them w/ hummus or pickled herring or vegan 'chicken' salad almost every morning for breakfast. a good filling low carb breakfast that is under 100 cals ~works for me! (my local all natural…

hi everyone! Real Name: jj Height: 5'9" HW: 202 CW: 197 GW: 135 Location- long island NY Age: 51 Sex: F Child: no human ones but have many creatures under my care. Status: living w/ DBF for past 13 or 14 years (i forget), he is wonderful, we make a great couple. i have been on MFP since last week of oct- joined the day my…

oh wow! awesome job. :smile:

you look great! i like how you can see hip bones in last pic. and where did you get that awesome zombie bikini? want!

imho it is not the next day until I go sleep and wake up. i'm not cinderella, my day doesn't end at midnight. so ppppbbbttt to all the clocks in the world.:smile:

if you are skinny fat then the best thing you could probably do is to strength train to change your body's composition. read around- there are many threads to learn from all over this site. good luck! :)

you might have answered your own question there. try researching insulin resistance (or any of the other names that condition goes by, your research will discover them all), k? (i'm no expert- i just started my own research)

whoa, i JUST had finished reading that 8 pg article and popped over here to MFP only to find this thread on top of the page. lol, well no need to do a search to see if it has been posted here now. was a very interesting read, although a bit depressing. i guess my days of eating whatever i felt like and never having to…

OP check out the "metabolism miracle" (insulin resistance or whatever you what to call it) thread that is a few down from this one. maybe that is you? just a thought..... s/ a fellow frustrated w/ cals in/cals out= zero results person.

i haven't in the 2 months since i started here. i eat very clean, log every bite, and at or under allotted cals every single day (except a few days around christmas i went to like 1400 something cals) and work out- strength(heavy as i can weights) and cardio, underestimating cals burned big time when i log them(nor do i…

i googled 'metabolism miracle' and just read the first 63 pages of the book (i dunno why google book preview didn't cut me off before that, not complaining mind you, lol). interesting! in fact i remember writing in my food diary that if i had cereal for breakfast i ended up seeking out carbs rest of day or if i had pasta…

can you fill out your profile so that ppl know what your goals are first? thanks!:smile: (it is just hard to look at food diary w/o knowing what the goals are).

no i lost basically nothing a week for these first 8 weeks trying here. so my math would be 15 x 196 = 2940 to maintain (w/o exercise) using that? well then the weight should be flying off then at 1200 cals then no? like at least 1.5 pounds a week *should've* been results using that, yet in 2 months it sure hasn't. see…

i looked at random days in your food dairy...maybe add: #5~fresh veggies and i need to get to know each other. just a thought- know i really shouldn't say anything about weight loss cause i have a 'bummed' thread going here too-but just for nutrition's sake upping your intake of those would be a good idea.

aww, thanks funky camper. yes there was muscle atrophy during the long immobile period and i still have to take meds that i am sure lower my trashed from accident metabolism even further. but i'm still confused as to how many cals i should eat, lol? during the long recovery period is the first time i've ever gained weight…

but were those months that you lost nothing the first 2 months you joined? lol, it is like a started in a plateau- just makes no sense. pretty discouraging, kwim? the only difference i've noticed is that i'm getting way stronger, not yet back to pre-accident strength but getting there. i can see way more muscle definition…

i love GG crispbread! :smile: have you tried them w/ hummus? btw- i think they are the most filling thing i think i've ever eaten for 12 cals in my life.
