  • binge eating, in my opinion, is a behavior that deserves some tough work rather than hoping a trick or method can overcome it. I binged for years and even though my rational mind was like, "this is not good; you don't need to eat an entire bowl of brownie batter!" I did it anyway. I did it again and again and again. I…

  • I'm not sure how this is a "fad diet." It sounds very normal. Don't eat snacks, don't eat sweets, and don't go back for seconds except for the weekend when you can have a cupcake or ice cream. How is that a fad??

  • If you go onto Pinterest and just put in "low carb meals" you'll get so many great ideas. I love Pinterest for this stuff.

  • some people don't have the same hunger problems as others. I can go 5-10 hours without food and feel fine. When I first started MFP I was anal about eating every 3-4 hours, having small meals, etc., and it literally made me sick to my stomach to eat so often regardless of the food I took in. I am 5 7 and have never weighed…

  • I think that you should be proud of yourself and I applaud the way you have been able to wean yourself off an overly dependent emotional relationship to food. Unless a person has a particular health problem such as diabetes or whatever, what harm is there in eating one meal a day? I have been in the medical field for…

  • I feel ya. I am 46 and was always skinny and then in my 30s, thanks to a Krispy Kreme on the drive home from hubby's work, I gained 15 pds. I lost that when the KK went out of business. Every year, though, I have gained and gained until I am almost 160 -- the highest I have ever been and I am 5 feet 7 inches. Meanwhile, I…

  • True and (now) funny story: several yrs ago I was working a bridal photog trade show and was supposed to dress as either a bride or a bridesmaid. We would sit there while photographers tried out the different lenses for cameras. So this girl and I are sent to the dress store and the smallest bridal gown they have is size 4…

  • The piloxing idea sounds good and I will take a look! Re the weights: Fortunately I can lift weights and do a free weight routine every day (upper one day, bottom next day). I'm actually sorta taut except for the jelly over my belly. I also have a Wii and have used that but I have found that even the tennis and bowling are…
