I'm not really sure how I would use flax seeds or chia seeds, as I've never had this issue until I started watching my caloric intake. I purchased some Psyllium Husk in the form generic Metamucil capsules. It says take 5 capsules up to three times a day, but I haven't had the guts to take that much yet. If anyone has…

You guys are all so great! Tomorrow is a new day and I'm going to start tracking again. I have breakfast planned and WILL be under my calories. Thank you guys so much for the support.

I never really believed that Diet Soda was bad for you. Honestly, I still haven't. However, since starting my MFP journey, I have noticed I was drinking more of it to replace snacking.

Wow....thanks everyone. It's good to know that I'm not the only one. I just had high hopes after the first weigh-in and I probably got a little ahead of myself. I'm going to keep working hard. I am going to try and drink more water though as I don't drink very much right now. Thanks for the replies fellow life…
