  • 1) Owning my decisions- I am the one responsible for my body, what I eat and my lifestyle. 2) Trusting the process- If I consistently eat healthfully and exercise, the results with show up 3) Release the idea that weight loss can be fast! It shouldn't be fast, it is a journey!! 4) Accept that food everywhere, Food is not…
  • I agree with the above....I have changed my thinking from "dieting" to eating healthier. I still find I am able to eat the foods that would be considered "bad" on a "diet". Giving myself permission to eat these not so healthy foods, helps me feel better about not eating them so often. I can eat them, I just choose not to…
  • I second the structure! Plan your meals, write them down. Have things prepared and ready to go!! Eat regularly, so you are not starving then binge. -I would even go as far as get the tempting foods out of the house that call your name. -See if the grocery store in your area can do "order on line" and pick up. This has…
  • Are you eating quite a bit of salt? That could cause you to retain fluids
  • For me I prefer eat right before hand, but it also depends on how long I am going to be running. If it has been a while since I've eaten or I am working out first thing in the morning, I do well with 1/2 banana, or a small container of yogurt.

  • Stick to a low fiber diet for a couple weeks until the inflammation can go down. This would mean no fruits and vegetables, and no whole grains....Eat small frequent meals of bland foods. It may sound to be the opposite of healthy and not a lot of fun, but the goal is to heal the gut, just like you would rest an ankle if…
  • Just like many others have said, pre plan your meals and stick to your plan. If you are hungry, eat....if you are not- then why are you looking twords food. Are you thirsty? Are you bored? Eating mindlessly is simply a habit that we need to be more aware of and change that behavior.
  • Feel free to add me as well :smiley: I can use the support as well !
  • I like to have tuna fish made with red fat miracle whip and relish and eat on carrot chips. Hummus and red. fat wheat thins are good. I sometimes grill chicken breast ahead of time and make differenct things out of it....chicken salad with diced up apple and mixed with fat free plain yogurt and eat on a pita. chicken…
