i'm a fan of carb too!! it makes me full and satisfied which meat and veggie can't give me.. i'm not a big fan of meat so i rely on carb for energy.. i also eat nuts and things like that but i still love my carb and i eat way too much!!!

my dr said broccoli and cauliflower can cause gas and bloating. i feel like steamed veggies are easier to digest! i get stomach pain frequently too!!

just turned 31!!! >< the # 3 feels scary

it feels like back in the days, no one was so obsessed with food and things like that.. now people want low fat this, low sodium that... sugarless this, non transfat that... you get what i mean! i think sometimes we are overly concerned and it's an obsession... but it's hard not to pay attention to these things, because…

usually i bring apple and banana, depending what we have at home.. nuts and granola bars are great too.. :)

" didn't think I was invisible" that was funny!!! lol.. i bought one from my naturopath and it's the rice protein in vanilla flavour.. i don't really like it.. not sure what to do with it now! i think it'll be better if i have time to blend it with milk/water and some fuits like banana. but i'm just adding cold water and…

thanks for the reply. i am actually more muscular now than when i was young, because i never exercised before. i was simply skinny!! for no reason. but one thing i am certain is that i have more food craving now.. before i just never thought about food, or even obsessed with it.. i dont like that, and i'm trying to do…

my yoga teacher always tells us to drink coconut water or emergen-c for potassium!

i love what you wrote!

i have that problem too :( i had seen a psychologist and a counsellor but dont find them helpful.. they target at as emotional eating most of the times.. for me, i find myself full in my tummy but my mouth wants to eat!!! it's like an evil living in me.. so sad!!! i joined the support group in mfp too.. dont get much…

agree! both are healthy and filling. do both and alternate!

2 weeks and only .6lbs lost? it's not ONLY.. i think you are doing very well!

i went a naturopath for similar problems but for me its more constipation.. and big belly.. im not overweight but my belly makes me look like im 5 months pregnant!!! i feel there are a lot of trapped air inside.. it's swollen and huge!!! anyway.. she put me on probiotic and told me to take some supplements and vitamins..…

can you explain what is "Primal" means? sorry if i'm stupid :P

i got rice protein powder from my naturopath, gluten-free.. i had it for breasfast for a little while but then i got bored of it... i prefer my regular toast with peanut butter or even oatmeal with banana.. now i have half tub left.. i need to start having it for breakfast again... it's like a meal replacement but it's…

you lost so much weight and you feel your body is smaller than when you were pregnant! you are doing so well! dont mind the old pair of jeans! just get new ones!

same here.. i need to break this bad habit so badly!!!!

nice body!!!

building healthy relationship with food is very important.. no one should avoid any type of food because they are scared that they will gain weight.. moderation is the key.. i'm still learning and is super hard to do.. but i know it's true. go for it if you really feel like it! you worked so hard to lose the weight.. a…

i like walking but it's cold and wet outside.. not very attractive.. :(

i;m with you on this one.. i have weak motivation and i am always over calories.. although i do exercise regularly but the overeating kills it :(

love sushi!!! try chopped scallop!! :)

same here.. i still want to eat even i'm full.......... dont remember since when i have this "habit"... not since childhood for sure... maybe in the past.. 3-4 yrs? dont know why......

i started practising regulary since march 2010.. it's almost 2 years! i try to go to the studio everyday, and do 2 classes a day.. hot and power. of course i havent done that everyday.. but i still make it to at least 5-6 days a week, and mostly 2 classes unless i really dont feel like it or have things to do.. i dont…

wonder how much calories dogs burn :)

maybe try to be with a friend or family.. i think having someone there helps!!!

i do hot yoga and power yoga.. it really helped me tone my arms and my legs, and build muscles.. my problem is my tummy too.. but unfortunately it didn't help with that.. maybe it's just me..

not all calories are equal, although calories are calories...i have read that our body takes different food differently. i always feel that a 100 calories cookie is not the same as a 100 calories banana.. not only that their nutrients are different, also how your body breaks it down etc.. just eat healthy! and don't worry…

i love food and i still eat chocolate and carb (my fav!).. just need to learn to eat better and in moderation.. i think it's hard.. i like to eat a lot... till my stomach is swollen! it takes time and patient! take it easy on yourself and start slow!! i'm still learning too..

thanks! i always had my goal set at 0.5 lb per week.. it's very hard to lose even 1 lb when you are not very heavy to begin with.. i do a lot of yoga and it really helps with toning the arms and the legs.. but noy my belly :X
