I agree, you are probably tired because of what he mentioned, just take a nap if you can. I had to this afternoon!

So that's what's been doing on, LOL!!!!

Perhaps another way to look at it is that smoking destroys your metabolism which has to work harder to maintain homeostasis and provide respiration to your cells. Congratulations, you just avoided a triple bypass. . . saved your life! Be patient, you will lose weight. If your diary is open, I'll check it to see if anything…

That works well, just make a big batch of veggiesat dinner and just warm leftovers at work. Also, you could plan to eat a fruit at work or a salad. I do that alot once school has started. I'm a teacher and no one has a shorter lunch break than us !!! LOL Now you know why the symbol of the teacher is an apple.

Hair is made of keratin - a form of protein. Be sure you have not messed with your settings on MFP and are getting enough protein. Don't overload on protein either, it's fine to overflow the protein cup, but not to come in under day after day after day, if you want to have good hair. Our hair gets thinner as we age, At 52…

Deep water aerobics for the old ladies. . . helps the back

That's why should should count them, because they use up about 200-300 calories. Not only will you be more successful, you'll see your vitamin and potassium intake go up. These fight cancer and high blood pressure, they're so essential and not to be skipped. If you don't want to count them, you probably won't get in as…

Superfoods - yes, very nutritious foods that you could certainly build a diet around. Not sure about the belly fat specifically, but it will work as long as you keep it under your calories and have reasonable portions of things. And they are full of nutrients to make your metabolism run well, and sooooo yummy. Not sure…

Have yourself a healthy dessert like the one in my diary, put your feet up and be proud you worked out. Ruth

There's nothing wrong with getting divorced again. Better than having a baby right now with a man who doesn't worship you and whom you probably love less every day as well. Do not have a baby with him. Your finances are not up to it anyway. Love and marriage is not supposed to be like this. Move back in with your folks!!!

Eating once a day is the worst thing you can do if you are prediabetic. Married men live longer, married women live shorter lives. This is because we teach them to be healthier. And they suck our life force, LOL. Just kidding. Tell him to stuff it !!!!! You might want to meet with a nutritionist right now and she will set…

It never hurts anyone to eat like a diabetic, because they eat pretty normally. What you need to do is reduce your weight, and not eat meals that are too big at once. When you eat really large meals, it creates a burst of glucose that the body may not be able to process. So dividiing your total intake into fairly balance…

Take some frozen fish like the tilapia they have at the walmart. Spray a pan with pam and put the fish on it. Sprinkle with a dry seasoning; we like chili lime or jerk seasoning. Only one 4 oz piece per person! Bake at 375-400 til it flakes, never overcook it. Serve with those yummy brown pastas or our favorite, near east…

You should never try to lose weight while pregnant, BTW

It's urgent that you begin a prenatal vitamin tomorrow. Talk to the doctor about what to eat, he will tell you that you need folates and believe me you do, if you don't eat what they recommend you run the risk of spina bifida. Just stop by the doc's office and they will have a pamphlet or can let you talk with a nurse.

I think that the most important thing you can do for her is to teach her to eat five fruits and vegetables a day and to play or exercise for 30 minutes a day. She should also try to get three servings of dairy in a day for her bones. The rest should fall in place.

They are a good occasional option but since they are high in salt, you'll need to be sure that you don't have anything with sodium for breakfast. Always add something fresh (fruit or veg) or you will get that "I'm living out of food from a box." They're not real satisfying but sure are better than nothing.

Ask Peachy

Intake calories minus exercise calories should be equal to or more than 1200 calories per day, or it will lead to breakdown in homeostasis of basic metabolic function and you will get sick and run down.

Nice guns!

Prescriptions generally don't have calories or nutrients. If you're taking presciption vitamins or minerals, it might be a good idea to enter them in addition to any over the counter vitamins, it will help avoid megadosing. I just to get waayy to much vitamin C until I realized I didn't need it.

What does CABG mean?

If the article is correct, then if agave is truly fructose, it is no different than high fructose corn syrup. Since it comes with no phytonutrients, doesn't sound awesome, but if you only want a spoonfull every now and them,no harm. I just think it sucks flavorwise, have some and can't seem to finish the bottle. Tequila is…

You should make sure that your intake minus exercise calories is 1200 calories per day. Your body needs that much just to make all of its metabolic transactions. If not, you could start to get sick. How are you feeling?

Plan a dessert. Take a look at my diary (well, not yesterday, LOL) and you'll get some ideas. Mine usually have a serving of fruit or dairy to meet my calcium needs and supply lots of nutrients in addition to being very soul-satisfying. Whatever I crave, I plan and enjoy it. I have some pears, peaches, ricotta, sugar free…

I always plan a dessert, usually it includes a serving of fruit and meets my calcium intake. You're just a dessert eater like me, so plan it and budget it.

If you walk for 30 minutes a day, like to and from the subway, you are probably getting enough exercise for your legs and heart. You're right, calorie control in the city of some of the best restaurants is probably your big downfall and by logging in, keeping an open diary to your friends, you will lose weight. To get your…

Open your diary so we can look at it. I have a nice dessert that has fruit and calcium. I have to, because I often stay up late studying. It really helps, and I feel so spoiled.

I agree with Peachy, I am set to sedentary with 1 minute of exercise (because it won't let me enter 0 minutes of exercise). That way, when I enter my exercise calories, I can actually eat some of them back if I want to. This helps keep me from overeating on the 1-2 days a week I don't exercise, as I try to exercise at…
