Flaring in the big toe sounds like goute

OMG OMG I have a joke about vibration machines ... but it would not be appropriate on MFP *wink*

Eat what you want log it but stay in your calorie goal, and soon you will see how much those things take up your calories; and you will make better choices. Still have a cupcake when you feel like it. Weight loss that can be maintained is a slow process 1-2lbs a week is good don't expect quick loss like 10lbs in a month…

I agree with everything people are saying about Topamax I had all that and tingling/numbness in hands and feet, and I lost no weight. Also I agree please eat more even if you are not hungry stay within your deficit and you will lose weight. Good Luck!

It does take its toll on you. Every night having to deal with their BS and then you are angry the next day and they get to forget about it. I am in a mood today for the same reason.

Avacado is a great idea for a dressing you can blend it with lime salt and paper and BAM creamy dressing

What helped me is if I have snacks on hand because i get very snacky at work. I bring string cheese, fruit, bagels and yes candy or home made sweets. So if there is something out I don't have to have it to fulfill my snack craving I already have something. PS. The crappy Entenmann's Donuts you speak of better not be the…

If you use it as one meal replacement and use calorie counting to stay in a deficit I'm sure it will work. I did not like the taste of it and after a few days of using it had to choke it down. I didn't even use their protein powder because it was soy based I bough a cheaper one that was from whey. I had cafe latte, orange…

You can make your own dressing a little red wine vinegar and some oil or lemon juice salt paper, creamy dressing greek yougert, onion and garlic powder & vinegar. Honey & mustard a little vinegar and shake. If you have a baby food jar or a tiny mason jar you can control what you put in the the dressing and shake it up to…

I think you need to go see a doctor about the mysterious UTI. They can also recommend a nutritionist who can give you tips on how much you should eat to lose and what to eat.

I make sure that I have snacks on hand like cheese & fruit. I try to log everything when I get the binge urge. I also try to drive to and from work on a route that had none of my stops. I also know that if I don't have something sweet I will obsess over it so I try to have little chocolates, and I try to limit myself to so…

Boobs first, then face, then feet (who knew)

I have snacks like cheese & fruits. A cheese stick is 80cal

If you were not eating because of the gallbladder then you may gain weight if you eat more then your deficit, otherwise no it will not do anything different. You may get heartburn easier then before, and you may not be able to eat a lot of fried food (I tried to eat it two days in a row and I got sick) I had mine out three…

Tea is terrible for your body it actually slows down your ... JK I have no idea but I love tea hot or cold, with honey or lemon. I like to blend black tea and fruit teas together in the summer so I get the caffeine and the flavor. YUM. Sometimes tea give me heartburn, but what doesn't.

I use Culturelle my Doctor recommended that brand it seems to help me get over being glutinated faster, or it could be a placebo. I just know I feel better gut wise when I take them.

@janejellyroll goats milk does not have lactose in it, so the lactose intolerant can drink it.

I love soda I have mostly gone down to one can a day ... but some times it's a polar pop 32oz for $.89 that helps me through the day.

I like gluten free ham and cheese "hot pocket" pocket sandwich YUM!

Usually people just like to complain so unless she asks what you did say nothing she obviously does not want tohear it.

Well when you are still at it 2 months from now and they have given up you will be the winner

I have celiac I know that if I get glutinated once I am healed I am hungry all the time for like a week. I just assume my body needs the nutrients it could not absorb while I was recovering.

if it is water weight you will pee it out

I was sore after but three weeks later I went to a Reds Cubs game. I was tired and a little sore from walking to the ball park and back(uphill) so there is that. I can't eat a lot of gravy or I will get "fake gallbladder" pains, and I can't eat fried or fatty food more then once a week. Also I have non stop heartburn…

Chi is energy. I believe in chi like I believe we all have souls everything is made up of energy. Whatever you call it there is something there you can tap into when you need it to get you though hard times, to give you strength when you are ready to give up. Different cultures call it different things.

Use a Fanny-pack my roller derby friends use them all the time. You could easily conceal in one.

All are the best I haven had a meat I don't like

It is hard to let go of those things because they have shaped who we are now, but you can overcome them they do not have to shape who you will be in the future. We can not change the past we can only accept it and move on.

I guess it would be lower calories then flour 1 C Wheat germ would be 360 to 1C AP White Flour 455 so it is just a calorie deficit which is how you lose weight. Wheat germ would have a better nutritional value then AP White Flour.

Someone at my work was following this and you could not eat some things together because they don't digest the same. I looked it up seemed to be a little off.
