Oh! Good point about the labels. Thanks!

I had two sunnyside-up eggs, a small slice of marble rye toast w/ cream cheese, and a half a cup or so of peas. ::shrug::

^ Oh yeah, re: question 4 -- a little more fat may be in order. Fat is not the enemy. :)
-
Welcome -- I'm proud of you for making these changes.

You're gonna get a range of answers to questions 1 & 4, but here are my two cents on all of them: 1. For something like a tuna sandwich, I enter the components individually. For something like chili, I look for something already entered. In the interest of time, not for any other reason. 2. Whole grain breads are better…

A week isn't a great indicator of whether your new lifestyle is working for you. In terms of sugar, I'd suggest generally aiming for nutritious food and not worrying about sugar. Example: fresh pineapple -- high in sugar, but nutritious. Kit Kat bar -- high in sugar, not very nutritious. (Although a life w/o candy would be…

Cut.

This is awesome. There is no good reason to "cook" with this stuff.
-
This: http://giffordsicecream.com/flavors/retail-locations/maine-wild-blueberry/ It's great!

Soy yogurt with banana slices. Avocado. Tofu scramble with beans and/or vegetables. Bacon, sausage, or any meat, really.
-
Yikes, no. Milk has nutritional value (e.g., protein, calcium), Pepsi has none.
-
You look a lot smaller in the second pic. Your face even looks thinner.
-
I had a cup of cottage cheese with banana slices.
-
No, but I've reduced them by replacing them with healthier foods.
-
I have my goal set for .5 lbs/wk, so it doesn't tell me 1200. I absolutely would be starving eating only that much per day, and I see my nutrition goals as ongoing/permanent, not a "diet." I think it would be very difficult for most people to eat 1200 calories/day forever.

You look good as you are. I hope you know that. However, if you'd like to be more toned, you can do squats, lunges, etc., to build more muscle -- no gym needed. You can also swim in that pool you were laying by. ;)
-
Nay. Not worth the risk or the pain.
-
NO NO NO.
-
It doesn't matter. Just be consistent about it.
-
Thanks! I'll try it w/ bananas and apples.
-
My typical snacks at work: Chobani yogurt Rice Works chips (1 serving, 140 cals) Apples Bananas Carrots Muffins (homemade, 50% whole wheat flour) Hard-boiled egg For a bigger snack, a whole avocado is good (w/ a sprinkle of salt). I just bought Kashi cereal bars for when I am starving (and don't wanna hit the vending…

I eat them all the time.
-
I'll never understand this, myself.
-
Yup. And I vote NY.
-
Whole egg.
-
Your goal weight is way too low for your height -- do you know that? Your current weight is even considered too low. I will echo those above who suggest eating more calories via adding some good fats and protein. But nothing wrong with carbs at all, just avoid refined white flour. Some healthy, yummy carbs include baked…

I am not gonna read this whole thread, sorry, but I just wanted to say I agree 1000% with the above post.
-
What about doing some non-exercise-y activities, like … getting a dog that you have to walk and play catch with, etc.; gardening; cooking, cleaning, home improvement projects; building stuff.
-
I second the suggestion to see a doc ... also to help with the issues surrounding your username and the info in your profile ... :\ ... also, eating vegan does not necessarily = healthy.

Hummus is delicious ... it tastes like a combination of its ingredients, i.e., chick peas, olive oil, GARLIC, tahini (sesame seed paste), and lemon. If you like those things individually, you will love hummus. :)
