  • You will not gain weight until you are eating more than you burn no matter what you are eating/drinking. If Ensure is a way that you can wrap your head around consuming more calories, by all means, do it. I suffer from body dismorphia as well. I get what you are going through. Please feel free to reach out to talk to me if…
  • I use it in canned tuna instead of mayo. I also use it a few different ways in boiled eggs. First off is use it with the yolk instead of mayo for deviled eggs, I also use it instead of the yolk by putting a teaspoon in the boiled white. Its a great post work out snack. It can also be used with diced firm tofu as a mock egg…
  • The OP deactivated her account, so I guess the others did too? I know there were 3 other people that posted before me.
  • What happened to all the posts before mine? Am I the only one that does not see the original post?
  • Yes, big time. But mine was for being under weight and not having any boobs. About 10 years ago one of my bullies got my phone number from my sister and called me to apologize. She said that her step father was abusing them and their mother was not doing anything about it, so she took it out on me because I was an easy…
  • Holy COW No, just no. There is no way her BMR is 1295. Its 1900. MINE is 1212 and I am 110 pounds. OP, keep on keeping on. You can do this. Just remember, everything is about your next good choice. It took me years to get where I am, and I did it by a series of good choices, a better one every day than I made the day…
  • +1 There is a difference trying to explain something to someone and to be flat out mean to them, make fun of them and basically be a bully. It is typically the same little group of people, and come in to dominate the thread telling people how dumb, illogical and stupid they are. We treat people the way we want to be…
  • Is it a whey protein? There could be a possibility that you have an intolerance to it if it is. It is not uncommon for some whey proteins to do that. If it is not only when you drink the shake, you may want to try Betain HCL with enzymes. It is more expensive but way better than beno.
  • Weight is not an issue in my household either, health is. So we do not buy unhealthy snacks and yes I said UNHEALTHY!
  • You first need to distinguish between hunger and just eating to eat. Am I hungry or is it there and I want to eat it. Second, do not keep such a variety of sugary snacks in your house. I will buy enough treat snacks for one per day. If I have a variety of them, I will eat them. Try an apple with your peanutbutter or make…
  • Yep, it was my thyroid. Husband had it as well and he has sleep apnea. I would for sure talk to your doctor about it. As other people have mentioned, it could be a variety of things.
  • Wow, how heartbreaking. I am sure the family is asking themselves the same exact questions right now that you have asked. But it all boils down to she was 30 and was incharge of her own life and choices. She is the one that ate herself to death. I hate that she is gone but I hope this wakes a few people up and makes them…
  • Your obliques should be sore if you are doing it right. The whole idea around the ball work out is to engage your core. My husband has a ball in his office he uses a few hours a week to sit on while working for that very reason. Good luck! There are a lot of things you can do with that ball besides sitting on it. Try…
  • You could be but you could also be working muscles in your back that you do not normally work, and that is why they are sore.
  • The ratios of fructose and glucose are pretty much the same in both fruit and table sugar. Most fruits are 40 to 55 percent fructose (there's some variation: 65 percent in apples and pears; 20 percent in cranberries), and table sugar (aka sucrose) is 50/50. Neither type of sugar is better or worse for you, but your body…
  • A colonic, thats about it.
  • You are actually perfect for an athletic teenager. Congrats! 110 is to low. Trust me, I am 5.3 and 110 is to low for me, so 116 is probably the lowest you should go.
  • Good advice for regular eating but period eating is a whole other animal. :wink: To the OP, you are 18 and a competitive ice skater. You should not be eating a deficit.. How tall are you, how much do you weigh and how much do you want to lose?
  • Exactly what do you mean by over eating. How many calories are you eating on those days?
  • I need it explained to me like I am 5, so someone help a girl out. If a person is working out and eating a deficit and they are not losing weight, how does phentermine help with weight loss? To the OP. People should not be calling you names but please do not focus on all the mean stuff that is being said. To only do that…
  • You have yet to comment on how tall you are and how much you weigh.
  • Hi, my name is Lesa and I am an alcoholic. I was not an every day drinker, nor did alcohol cause any problems in my personal life, as a matter of fact, the only person I was hurting was myself when I drank. One day I woke up and realized that it was not okay for anyone else to hurt me, so why was it okay for me to hurt me?…

  • Please trust me when I say, do not "buy a lot" of healthy food. What will happen is it will go to waste. Buy a little bit of it, then after you eat that, go buy some more. So often we make up our mind we are going to eat healthy, go spend a crap load of money on healthy food, which generally means fresh produce, which goes…
  • Try looking at the photo albums on this facebook page, it has step by step instructions with pictures for recipes. https://www.facebook.com/TheSassyGourmet Dont try it all at once. Just make better choices tomorrow than you did today, and the day after, make a better choice than you did the day before. I did it slow, over…
  • There are dozens more addictive additives to traditional cigs than just nicotine, so it takes about 3 days to get used to only having nicotine and not the other things. Also Vaping is more like smoking. But if you have an ecig try like heck to get past that 3 day mark. I loved loved loved smoking and was not going to quit…
  • There is a difference between advice and shaming someone for not being able to eat refined and processed foods in moderation. There is a difference in the sugars. There is alcohol in most everything, it is distilled and fermented alcohol that alcoholics have to stay away from. When someone is not capable of eating a…

  • There are a lot of people on here that will try to disprove that there is such a thing as sugar addiction. Will tell you all sugars are the same, they are not, there is a difference in monosaccharides and disaccharides (for joy, some new stuff for all you people to google). And addiction is an obsession of the…
