I had to do my work physical today, which meant fasting. I'm nursing right now and I don't normally miss meals. I was FAMISHED by 10:30. Tried eating two protein bars (400 cal), but I was ravenous. Went to Sprouts, what bad could possibly come of that, right??? Ummm, their organic version of Cheetos, that's what!! They…

Zero foods (in my book): Lettuce- 5 cal per 1/2 cup 0.5lbs or less of: Carrots, celery or cucumbers, rind on- (take more energy to eat than they have in calories) Dill Pickles- 5 cal per spear Hot sauce like Frank's Red Hot or Tabasco Mustard The reason for the lbs max on some foods is that yeah, you COULD just eat them…

NOT that anyone wants my two cents, but here they are anyway... I used to consume a LOT of artificial sweetners. Then I got pregnant. I started reading more about what they do to your body, baby's etc (not good). PLUS, I read recent literature stating not that it's "bad" for you but that your body reacts to it like it's…

Cindy~ What else have you tried for the RA?? Would something like Humira work? I'm sure you've tried all the old stand by's: methotrexate, prednisone, methylprednisolone. and I hear they're doing some trials using Lupus meds on RA?? Maybe something you could look into. GL, pain sucks!!! As far as weight loss, you can do it…

Ha ha Koops!! Well, at least we know we can maintain, right??? LOL I've done two good days in a row, I shalt not gloat at least until the wicked day 3... when I all of a sudden think to myself: "I deserve a reward for all my hard work." At which point the reward turns into a 14 day reward... not really helpful!!

No pro here!! But I feel like I should get the App now!!! LOL I LOVE LOVE LOVE the feature at the bottom of the food entry that says "if every day were like today you'd weigh XX in 5 weeks".
