I find there are days that I try not to eat them back because I don't feel hungry right then. the next day I am often ravenous and lose any benefit of not eating back the night before by binging. Lost 20 lbs, but I have 70 more to go....So remember this is my experience.

Being on the road doesn't always mean you have to eat out. I have been on the road a few times for work and often there is a foodstore somewhere. It may not be exactly what you eat at home but you could get a fruits and veggies there, pick up some milk and cereal if you want. There are even some prepackaged things that at…

probably not much help but my wife and I often sub black beans in place of ground beef for tacos, just cook them up like you would taco beef. Some of the other options sound good too!

While I appreciate the article and what it is saying It should be stressed the dangers are not seen in moderate use. We need to classify what is moderate use. I only have anecdotal evidence: As I pharmacist I have seen multiple (3-4)soldiers from a nearby base admitted to the cardiac care unit after drinking red bulls…

peanut allergy in the house, that's why we use it, and it is tasty! we make it work, so I am okay with it, for now

I think the bigger issue was the "Stupid O'Clock" time of said excercise

I got a fitbit last month. I wear it, I like that I can leave my MFP on sedentary when making goals, then each evening when the fitbit syncs up I usually get a credit for the walking that I do during the day. This allows me to have a little evening treat. It is a tool, don't buy one because they are nifty gadgets. It can…

This topic intersects with my professional life a lot. As a Pharmacist I can tell you that the "Lazy Bowel" odes happen. I have seen patients buying a 24 case of milk of mag, or citro-mag just to keep moving. Watch out. Fibre- great bulk forming laxative - needs water! Convieniently also works with diarrhea as it can…

Pharmacist

I can try this

Looks like a yummy recipe to try

bump to reference later!

Which is why it can be a great motivator! okay maybe tone it back a bit and not do the KKK, but there has to be something you dislike that you would rather not send money to. The canadian seal hunters federation? The 7 day cleanse support groups? People for a smoking america? Something.

I was recently reading a great heath book called "Drop dead healthy" and one of the motivational tools that the author found was to write a cheque to a cause you hate and give it to a friend, then if you do something you don't want to do they send it in. Example: I want to go to the gym and work with my trainer 3 times a…

Ummm have they ruled out an iron deficiency anemia?

Personal Favorite is the Pink lady/Ambrosia kinds, I can eat a gala when it is in season. Next up the Granny Smith!

I think that you have identified a lot of great things. While I think all of them are important things I think that you need to talk to your doctor about depression. Some people will probably comment about medications used for depression being some kind of poison or something but with the people I have worked with they can…

I would suspect that this has to do more with the "Typical " activity level that you selected. If you have selected a moderately active lifestyle and the steps/activity from fitbit don't match the lifestyle you might get a negative calorie adjustment. This is why I keep mine at sedentary (also because this is kinda my…

I think other people on the forums have said things like 30DS can be found on youtube too. If you have a blu-ray player with Wifi or internet connected TV these might work. Even a laptop in a pinch..?

I don't know if it is cheaper but we bake our own bread and it seems to be cost neutral (by baking at home we can avoid sesame allergies in my son) Sometimes it can be cost neutral to do it yourself and you can have activities that you do as a family. That said the convenience of ready bread from a supermarket is nice too!

I can see the benefit of all the above posts about shoes and fit. I will add one more general caution, I am not speaking directly to the OP, but in generalities. If a person is living with Diabetes, they should also consider other reasons for numbness in feet. Diabetic peripheral neuropathy can be serious and often…

As a pharmacist I can speak in generalities about fiber the diarrhea. We often think of fibre in the bulking up of stool. The Fibre is in the gut, and stays there for the most part, this then atttracts water in the lower intestines and increases the volume of stool, this then pushes on lining of the intestine and…
