I weigh every day same time in the morning. Yes weight can fluctuate. Time of month,water weight etc. BUT keeping that in mind I can keep myself in check if I see the weight creeping up higher than normal.

I use them in my drinks but my doctor said that they make people crave sugar more than they would without it. I do think I agree that they make you crave more sugar. But I guess I figure no calories are better than me downing a ton of sugar. Honey just does not taste the same in drinks. If it works for you use it but if…

Just a thought but a real man wouldn't let you revoke his man card..

Who says breakfast has to be breakfast food? Whatever you can make work into your eating plan is fine. About eggs...you can eliminate the yolks which are most of tge colesterol. If you like salsa you can add that to the egg whites for flavor. How about a fruit smoothie? Real fruit and unfkavored yogurt. Oatmeal is always a…

Yes what you say is true but people work things our differently. Some people need encouragement and come to MFP to get it. You don't have to listen or give it to them. IMO you are a little sensitive yourself about this subject. Maybe you where there once. I just don't believe negativity helps anyone move forward. Maybe…

You could probably add watching Old Yeller as an exception to the crying rule. In case you didn't know the dog dies. My man is allowed to cry when any animal dies....

Nope tea drinker here. A little splenda in it. Could never stand the taste of coffee.

I have a friend that is a fitness trainer. I once told her I could not do push ups and she gave me this tip. Start off doing your push ups off the wall standing up. It sounds weird but its a good start.

In and Done!!

Just say what you want to say but say it with a smile. It sounds better that way! If not that I don't know what to tell you. :)

I don't know if I get a craving exactly but i usually eat ruffles and Mt. Dew. Because the salt on the ruffles tends to help the stomach and the mt. Dew is more clear than coke. It always seems to help ease the symptoms as long as it stays down. When I get a migraine I am not worried about eating right just feeling better.…

I would give you some of mine if I could. I heard a recumbent bike is good for your booty while the upright bike works on lean legs.

I would just say do the things you don't typically do. Let another poster said catch her off guard. Ask her out to lunch when she is not expecting it. Compliment her. Call her to tell her you are thinking of her. If she laughs at something tell her you really love her smile! Just be a good husband. A big heart felt squeeze…

I eat a pure protein bar every day. It has a lot of protein and keeps me full till lunch time. Also it makes me feel like I am having a candy bar for breakfast. :smile:

The elliptical is sopose to burn more calories. Can you adjust your elliptical to a harder workout? Maybe just use both. Alternate your workout.

You did call them FRIENDS right? Sounds like you are just more mature than they are. Don't feel guilty for doing what is right for you! If your friends don't get over it maybe it is time for new friends!

It is when we practice acceptance that new possibilities appear. From The Womens Book Of Positive Quotations.

Please don't listen to the person who says not to go to the doctor. You can go low on blood sugar for many reasons diabetes being one of them. It could be you were not eating the right food to maintain your sugar level. Nobody can tell you what is up except a doctor. If your blood sugar goes to low BAD things can happen.…

When I managed a pharmacy several customers had told me it was okay but if you eat any fat (AT ALL ) you get diarrhea and runny stools. They stopped using it because of it.

I am the same way. I just grab a pure protein bar. I am not sure if you have them there but they keep you full pretty long and have a good amount of protein.

Pure protein bars keep me satisfied for hours.

Lifting my spoon to my mouth is my favorite or I wouldn't be on MFP. LOL But other than that I like walking the best.

A bottle of rum and access to a plane might work! LOL

Sabertooths...What if you had 2 minutes and could only take what you could carry? No camper! I think it is all a matter of perspective. What if you had to carry a loved one? Just saying it is not so black and white when preparing for emergencys.

The government take care of our family...That's a funny one. LOL I have thought about emergency preparation and have things to take a through a few days but no major planning. But if something ever happened I would definitely be self sufficient.

They think it makes them sound weak. Would you really want your man to tell all his friends he is gushy mushy to you. I'm not sure I would want my man to do that. As long as they treat you right I wouldn't worry about it.

Anytime you move more than normal it has benefit. If your asking if that will help with weightloss maybe not. BUT it is definately benificial to your health to move more so keep it up. Maybe during lunch you could walk around the building a few times or walk the stairs up and down as many times and you can. Keep on moving!

It's hard getting out of a funk when you can't control it. My one thought might be to tell your husband that you are in a bad Depression and that you would appretiate a nice hug and a truce of the fight. Tell him you love him. Control what you can and try to feel good about that. A nice hug might help your mood. It…

I feel the same! Don't buy until you officially fit in tge smaller size if you can.

In my opinion you need to try a new doctor. There are many drugs. I think your doctor didn't work hard enough for you. My mother had issues for years until she found the right doctor. It made all the difference. Good Luck
