I completely understand! you can enjoy the food the whole weekend, but you must remember to stick with the right portions. If you think something is high in calories, eat a smaller portion. Then on Tuesday get back on track. If you have been doing this a while, as soon as your body tells you it is full, stop eating. Yea…

Hi all! Hope everyone is doing well today. My sugar was 100 this morning, It puzzles, me sometimes. I have been very good on my diet. So do not know what is up with it. When I went to a dietician about 4 years ago, she told me to stick within 135 grams of carbs per day. I did that and it was good. I am only on oral meds, I…

Hey Cali hope you are doing better today. I know it is hard when you are not feeling well, plus that plays havick on you blood sugar. I was at 94 fasting this morning. Weight was down a little, but I weigh in on Tuesdays! Keep up the good work! :heart:

I was told last check that I could take one of my Amaryl away if my morning sugar was 80 or below. I was having low times before lunch. I am afraid to take it away, afraid it will go back up. Everyone in my family who has diabetes are not very good at keeping in control and I am afraid of the "oh I am off my meds, I can…

Hello everyone! I just found this thread today. I have been on MFP for about three weeks now, still learning. I have been a diabetic for, it will be 18 years in September. I got diagnosed with it for my 30th birthday! I also have a huge family history of diabetics. Seen a lot of bad stuff along the way. I was a angel at…

Do not eat it. Stick a piece of gum or something in your mouth to keep you busy till all the other employees eat them up! Then have your healthy snack! Good luck!

You could call your sons doctor and they could write you a medical note saying you need to take care of your child and cannot get away to come to the gym. This might help, then agian they might just freeze your account, but that would help as well. Hope this idea helps you out. I work for a chirpractor and we have written…

Try some of the special K bars, they have only 90 calories and they have a little sweetness to them. You could also try some sugar free pudding. It is hard not to eat the sweet stuff, but once you get used to it, it is okay!

I am on the 1200 calories also that MFP told me to eat. I am eating less than that and it is telling me I am not eating enough to keep my metabolism going. I am not hungry though. The computer changes my calorie intake as I exercise. So if you are exercising, you need to pay attention to the altered amount of calories.…

Hi Kathy! I just want to say you can do anything if you set your mind to it. When I started out, I just watched my portions. Portion control is very important, once you get used to that, you can then remove the bad stuff and add the good stuff, like different breads. My Mom used to go into the grocery store and pick up a…

Thank you so much for your support, I appreciate it! This weekend will be difficult, My daughter is taking me out to dinner on Saturday night and my son is taking me out on Sunday night. I will probably have to do a lot of salad! :bigsmile:

Hello! I am new to MFP. I just started this week. I have done many diets in the past, only to become a Yo Yo dieter. I am doing this to try and change my habits. So we will see how it goes. I love it so far, it is very interesting to see all the information and I think it is going to be very helpful. Created by…
