I'm bringing my favorite healthy foods to my family picnic. Cottage cheese & veggie salad, fresh fruit and pickled eggs. I'll fill up on that stuff, and maybe sneak a piece of lean steak on the grill.

I mean that in the nicest way.

:happy: Make one using her FIRST name in the heading. I'd kill you if you posted my first and last. :tongue:

Midol controls water, doesn't it?

It does get easier. Time does heal all wounds. My Dad passed away eight years ago, and I still think of him everyday, but now it's all the good memories- I see so much of him in my daughter. He was my safety net, so it took a long time to feel secure again- but now I feel stronger than ever. Your parents still watch over…

That's awesome! You can do it!!!!

The funny thing about working out is I have to push myself to do it, but once I do, I feel great! I actually love working out, I just forget that in between every single session.

That is a fatal mistake when it comes to gastric bypass. If you don't adhere to a strict diet for the rest of your life following the surgery- you gain all the weight back and you can die. Stroke, blood clots, ruptured intestine, heart failure.... of the six people I know who have had the surgery, only one has remained…

This is the fourth calorie counting site I've used, and by far the easiest to use & the most accurate. I will however, keep my eyes peeled. Thanks for the heads up.

I was getting Depo shots, (which I hate, but I have brain damage and can't remember to take a pill) but quit about six months ago. Now that I'm losing weight I started to worry that I might get prego before the weight comes off. I asked my Dr. what would have the least impact on my weight- she said that IUD or nuva ring…

Dang! I just became a waffle!

:smile: Thanks for posting- this is encouraging. I've been stuck at 291 for over a week and the only thing I can figure is that I'm falling under on my calorie count. I can't wait for this plateau to end. Congrats to you!!!! Keep up the great work!

Does everyone follow that given amount? I've been eating non-stop for the past two days!!! I had been eating 1,000-1,200 a day but quit losing weight. I came here and it said to eat 1,500. After I did 30 minutes of aerobics it said I could eat 300 more! I can't possibly eat that much! Do you have any idea how much 'healthy…

I'm getting a feel for the site, and I just have to agree. I love that the food journal is much, much more accurate than my old- paper one.

Steamed veggies and tofu are your best options. When we eat Chinese I treat myself to steamed dumplings, but always share them. If I know I'm going out to eat, I make sure to budget my calories for the day, then watch my portions.

I basically follow the macrobiotics way of eating, whole foods, raw and natural. Only whole grains, no white flour or processed sugar. I don't stick to it perfectly, but I know it's better for me than the high processed- low fat junk diet I used to adhere to- and you know what? I was always fat! When I found out I had high…

Okay, how do you post a photo???

Yeah, that drives me crazy when the kids eat all my healthy cereal and leave me with a cupboard of captain crunch and lucky charms. I just threaten to stop buying anything but rabbit food.

You know what food I gave up when I started counting calories? Salad! I had no idea I was smothering my healthy lunch with gazillions of calories, carbs and fat. I used to call it my 'garbage salad' ... I had no idea I was actually eating garbage. :noway:

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome, I look forward to getting to know all of you! <a round of hugs> My profile said I need 1,500 calories a day- I was eating between 1,000 & 1,200. Do you guys follow what this site tells you?? Does it really work???
