  • Atkins chocolate caramel mouse snack bar. 120 calories. 1gram of sugar(12g sugar alcohol). 3g protein. 9g fiber. 23 carbs:/ It tastes like a milkyway candy bar! I work 12 hour shift at a hospital and around 4pm I get insane sugar/hunger crave. It works amazing. I got a doctor and some coworkers loving them too.
  • You are welcome to friend me. I really like this site. There is so much diversity on this site. I love how respectful everyone is. We all have a united goal for health and happiness. On this site the skinny and the large are friends. You don't see acceptance like this in public. I am having so many struggles, but the…
  • I have SLOWLY lost weight. One of my MFP friends showed me how to add sugar and sodium on my log chart. Yep. Thats my problem. Even when I stay under my calorie goal, I am still over my sugar and sodium limits. I am still struggling, but I know what to fix. Finding what to fix is the frustration. Good luck with tomorrows…
  • Thank you for the insight! I am going to try it. I am aware too that my condition is not solely because of cortisol levels, but mostly due to my damaging diet choices. Its not realistic to take something and expect to take it forever. The whole purpose of living a healthier life is to naturally live. I would like to find…
  • I love this!! You look amazing! Congrats on your new life of living:)

  • Most of the expert advise out there now is saying "high protein" breakfast. The magic number being 30 grams. Your body has the whole day to burn calories from breakfast.
  • Yes! I have stumbled many times and sure there will be more. But...When I look at the bigger picture: I am no longer a medication controlled diabetic, I no longer have leg swelling issues, and my skin is improving alot! I'm a nurse that is on her feet all day and enjoy sweets. This is my second month and am enjoying all of…
  • I am really liking swimming for exercise, and the calorie burn adds up. On my aggressive day,s I log "moderate swimming". On my rough days, I log "leisure swimming". Its in the database options. Good Luck!!
  • Me too! I went shopping a found a bogo on peanut butter and bought it. I went through two jars of PB in a month. Your addition could be worse. I'm not buying anymore. My fav is to eat it straight out of the jar. it was too accessible.
  • I was 1995 Star Farmer of my FFA chapter. I don't know really how but was told I "mothered" everyone and I'm not scared to work. I am a farm raised girl but few knew it growing up. I was not into the cowboy wear. T shirt and flip flops:)
  • SammyKatt you are soooo blessed, not weird!
  • I totally understand! My neighbor ordered pizza and I had a "Ali Mcbeal" moment wanting to tackle the pizza guy for the pizza. I heard on Dr. Oz to get a couple spoons of peanut butter and it curbs your craving. It has worked for my too. I just bought a bogo deal today.lol
  • Your asking what to do? Your energy is much more into this than his. You deserve to be with someone who has the same energy but not a relationship that you have to worry about and fix all the time. Confidence is sexy girl ;)
  • I didn't have a great weight loss last week. I only lost three pounds. It is good for an average overweight person but I was kinda sad. Then I took a good look and realized in total since the first that I have lost a pound a day. That's really cool. Praying for good results this week. pleazzzzz!
  • Mel you are strong girl! I had a down day today. Didn't get my exercise in today at the gym but played catch up with my life duties. I am staying within my calorie range so that is good. Next workout day is Sunday. I work 12 hour shifts as a nurse the next two days and dead to the world when I get home. I'm excited that…
  • I do have some advantage in that I live in the "Sunshine" state. Swimming is working nice for me. I joined the local YMCA and having a hard time with cardio. I feel lingering pain in my knee and shins with cardio. I'm really scared of stress fractures. I'm single, on my own, and can not miss work. I'm cautious with outdoor…
  • I saw a neat idea on Dr. Oz. It was recommended to eat a couple bites of a snack with some fat. Me, I'll take a couple tsp of peanut butter. When your stomach identifies the fat, it sends a "full" signal to the brain. I has really worked for me. I don't have a full feeling but a content feeling. Best wishes!
