  • The OP never said the doctor wasn't doing other things to help, and not all depression and psychosis are situational related (i.e. from a divorce.) Chemical imbalances can be lifelong, and the attitude that you can just eat and exercise better to 'cure' yourself just puts the blame on the the person with the disease. This…

  • As everyone has pointed out, you don't have to eat salad to lose weight or be healthy. On a side note, I used to think I didn't like salad. Turns out, I just didn't like the salad my mom always made. Iceberg lettuce, raw green pepper, raw onion, diced tomatoes, ranch dressing. Occasionally Italian dressing to mix it up.…

  • I can't say this happens at every restaurant, but my little cousin works in the kitchen at an Applebees, and gets very annoyed when the Weight Watchers entrees are ordered because she has to weigh/measure everything she puts on those plates. But I often wonder the same thing when I order something like the occasional small…

  • Wendy's is the closest restaurant to me. I really like the grilled chicken sandwich. Comes with lettuce tomato, and honey mustard. Substitute the fries for a small chili if you want extra protein. (The fries add about an extra 120 calories, so not too bad for an occasional treat.) Wendy's - Ultimate Chicken Grill, 234 g…

    in Supreme Pizza Cauliflower Casserole (250 calories) Comment by bex0178 July 2014
  • No, it needs to be updated regularly. I got a reminder from myfitnesspal at one point saying I should change my goals as my weight had changed a certain percentage, but that was when I first started. Not sure if they still do that.

  • Spring greens, diced pear, sunflower seeds, white fish baked with ginger, and an asian style dressing or olive oil. Occasionally some steamed veggies on top like peppers or zucchini or a poached egg along with the fish if I need more protein. Yummy!

  • Bananas-Raw. I just manually removed a brown gravy that was the first thing I'd ever logged. I only had it once (it was gross) but it stayed at the top of my most frequent list for a couple of years.

  • I didn't mean alone, that's what I meant by the calorie deficit and bodybuilding. Just as an addition to a healthy lifestyle.

    in Banana chocolate microwave dessert - low cal Comment by bex0178 December 2012
  • I find that low calorie, high volume foods, or low-calorie, high water-content foods help to control hunger. Salad can be very high volume if you use a lot of lettuce and low calorie veggies with just a few toppings for dinner (the serving size for most packaged salad mixes is half the bag.) Many fresh veggies are of…

  • I started and stopped for a long time, always regaining the weight I lost. Then one day, I decided to pull together pictures and websites that motivated me. I found the Fitblr community on Tumblr, and through them, MFP. I keep a blog, not of personal things, but just of pictures and quotes and statistics that motivate and…

  • I've found that the least confusing way for me to log is to log from the time I wake up until I go to bed. During the weekend, I just put a note in if the times are different, as in "shifted all meal times 3 hours earlier" to keep myself mentally adjusted.

  • Just try to hang in there. Sorry about your mum. I'm an emotional eater, and I find that I'm more successful if I just take it one meal at a time. If you mess up a bit, don't worry. You can't gain a pound in a day unless you eat 3500 calories ABOVE your BMR. But don't say, I messed up, I'll start again tomorrow. Just get…
