  • I recommend over the counter Miralax (go for the generic)for my patients to help with immediate constipation. It is a powder you can add it to any liquid and it is tasteless. Sometimes you have to take it several days in a row to help you develop regular bowel movements, but it is safe and gentle on your system. To help…

  • I use it as a substitute for anything that calls for sour cream or mayo. I also use it in banana bread. I add fat free cream cheese to it to make fruit dip. Add dry ranch dressing mix to make a veggie dip. I also do not like it plain but love it when used in the above recipes. I added it to recipes without telling my…

  • What do you mean you have to watch how much cardio you do?Just looking for some tips-- I am 44 and would like to see my metabolism increase. I workout 4 times/week.

  • I was 40 when I went back for my Masters Degree in Nursing Education. At that time I worked 32 hours/week and had a 10 and 13 year old. My Master's degree took me 18 months and it went really well. It went so well that I immediately went on for my Post-Masters to be a Family Nurse Practitioner. That was a 2 year program,…

  • Today I had: 1) Chicken breast, cut up into chunks and rolled in italian bread crumbs and parmesan cheese. Sprinkle each piece with olive oil and bake for 10-15 minutes at 425 degrees, turn the chunks over and bake another 10-15 minutes until brown. 12 good size nuggets is about 500 calories. I have about 6-8 nuggets, so…

  • I totally understand!!! "Everything in moderation" is great advice, but that is so hard for me. Once I take a bite of a bar or whatever it is, then I just want more. Before you know it I have had a bar, plus a piece of cake with ice cream, and who knows what else I snacked on that really put me over my calorie limit. If I…

  • There is a diet by the Center for Medical Weight (CMWL) loss where you buy your meals from them--primarily shakes and bars packed with nutrients and protein. On this diet you consume 800 calories a day. So 800 calories a day can be done but only on the right diet. The CMWL diet also requires weekly or bi-weekly doctor…

  • As a nurse practitioner I can tell you that I have done a lot of research on weight loss, diets, etc. There is no way you are getting the proper amount of daily nutrients that you need to stay healthy by only eating 800 calories a day. You may not feeling like you are starving, but that is because your body has gotten use…
