  • After reading all these posts, and the ones in nearly every conversation on this forum, the key seems to be whatever works for you. I have friends that swear by Weight Watchers or Atkins or this diet or that and I have tried lots of different diets over the years, mostly some version of low carb (low fat didn't work at all…

  • You might try some different "brands" of stevia until you find one with a flavor you like. They are quite different and it took several tries before I found one that didn't taste vile to me.

  • I too have been wrestling with the 1200 calorie recommendation by MFP.com and the warning that I am in danger of sending my body into starvation mode. I wonder if age is a factor. I'm 67, have a fairly irregular exercise regimen because of my work and various physical issues, and I feel just fine on less than 1200…

  • Salad is my life! Especially made with healthy greens like romaine, spinach, and "spring mix"--never iceberg lettuce (tasty but not many other redeeming qualities). I usually eat salad or a variety of raw vegies with lunch and dinner. Greens typically with olive oil and lemon, sprinkling of walnuts or sunflower seeds, and…
