  • Have you actually sat down with her and talked to her about it? Is she thin/fat? Does she feel threatened? Is she scared she may loose you? Have you asked for her help? Try getting out of the house to a neutral area for both of you and sit down and talk about what you are trying to do, why you feel the need to do it and…
  • I bought a mister (not Mr.) at a kitchen store and use it to spray pan with olive oil. It disperses very little ( I don't even count it) and olive oil is heart healthy. You do need some fat in your diet. Try to make it the good kind. Women get so few calories that it is kind of hard for men to understand that sometimes 10…
  • It didn't take me very long at all to notice that I didn't have heartburn, was in a better mood, less tired, my knees didn't ache. . It took a while longer to notice some changes in my body. I did notice the more serious I got about cleaning up what I ate and adding a bit of exercise in that the changes came faster. Some…
  • I think that the reason that you are getting bashed by your family is because this is not what they would have chosen for you. You and your baby are what is important now. Do not let them get you down. 23 isn't all that young and you seem to have the maturity to make a sound decision. Raising a child is hard no matter what…
  • Hi ya'all. I would like to add my two cents in here even though I am no longer a Mom with young kids. I sure hope you don't mind. First, I was a Mom with young kids once. Also a military wife. Also worked full time. Also moved and had no family close to help. I am now a 55 year old 1st time Grandma. My husband works an…
  • Had a picnic! All 4 kids and I had veggie sticks, turkey breast and cheese on wheat bread with tomatoes and lettuce, fuji apple slices, and skim milk. Had to be able to make it to the park! Yesterday I made Hungry girl Fettuccine with fresh broccoli. Made with Tofu Shirataki noodles (best noodle substitute ever).
  • Have you taken her to the Doctor for a complete check up? Include a hearing test and an eye check. If you cant see or hear well you often act out. If it isn't physical has she seen a councelor? Would she like to? After that I would encourage her rather than punish her....a quick drive by any downtown area where homeless…
  • WOW!!!!
  • Dont know that many web sites but I will recomend a cook book. Cook This Not That. Easy recipies with stuff that is normally around the house. We use it all the time and are down just over 25+ lbs for me and 35+ lbs for husband. He sometimes eats more than one serving for dinner (darn men get more calories). I eat one…
  • I just use this one for diet but I found that I am much better at exercising if I see it in a calender layout with days I actually exercise checked off....I didn't realize I only exercised 8 days last month till I saw it that way... So, now I use streaks to log exercise.
  • How Long had it been??? Seriously????Your doctor should be on your quick dial! If you don't like him/her find one you like! Ask for all the tests that a person your age needs and go do them. Then request a follow up visit to discuss the results. Be pro active, it is your health and your resposnability to take care of…
  • I didn't. I married a guy I met before he went into the service. We have been married 35 years. I wouldn't change anything about it or him. I personally don't think it is the guy going in the military that is the problem....maybe the guy himself....maybe the girl herself.
  • Just like when you were more overweight, HE has to want to lose the weight. You cant make him. Your cant talk him into it. You cant track for him. You cant exercise for him. If and when he is ready he will want to lose the weight. Be there for him then. You can bring only healthy foods into the house. You can set an…
  • Im in for just around 100. Friend me.
  • Welcome! I think you will like this app. If you use it on your phone is a great reminder of your goal! I just love it hope you do too!
  • Remember the old Mazda Miata commercials? zoom zoom zoom? Well, I used to drive one hence the name.
  • i know this is going to sound nuts but have you tried the wii fitness plus? One of my MFP friends told me about it and I went out and got the game plus the board. I can't believe how many inches I have lost just playing the dumb games! And to top it all off its FUN!
  • Wow. I really am at a loss for words. I can't imagine anyone being so rude. That really stinks. Kudos for keeping your cool and also for working out in the first place. Don't let that numbskull keep you from going back to the gym. I have never had the experience but I would probably be doubting myself...i just assume that…
  • Sounds yummy. I make my own yogurt so I wonder how it would be with regular yogurt. Guess I'll have to try it and see.
  • Thanks last60 for the info. I definately will give the tea a shot. I'm off to Whole Foods tonight to see if I can get some! Sweets aren't that much of a problem except once in a while. I just plain love to eat. Anything. Not being hungry doesn't stop me. I think that it may have something to do with the way the family…
  • I'm a Mom of 1 and a new Grandma. I know thats not a big family BUT I've been doing daycare for over 20 years so I'm kind of a "day Mom" to hundreds of kids, and my first kids are having kids.
  • Hi. I had the same problem. Mine started after I had fake nails removed and was dieting a while. I spoke with a nurse at the gym I went to at the time and she said to take Biotin. I took the amount recomended on the bottle for about 6 months and my nails are fine now. Now I take it for one week a month to maintain.
