Just adding my "2 cents worth" on the topic of chia seeds. I have been using them for a couple of years now and during that time have been able to get off my medication for Ulcerative Colitis...(with my Doctor's blessing of course!) Also, my friend that told me about them has been able to get off her blood pressure meds,…

I actually fill out my FP meals in advance so that I know what I have on the menu for that day. I find that helps. Of course it isn't carved in stone, if I decide to change something then all I have to do is delete that part and fill in whatever it is that I had instead. It seems to help for me....Also...I do try to have…

Hi everyone, Once again, thanks for your ideas. I have tried some of them and am looking forward to researching and trying some of the others. At present, I am not allowed dairy so, no cheese, and I am not allowed sugar so that cuts into a few things that have been posted on here. However, they are great ideas for when (I…

Hello everyone, Firstly I would like to wish everyone a Happy Christmas and safety for those who are traveling at this time of year. Then I would like to thank everyone for their help, ideas and concerns regarding my new "diet" set out for me by my Naturopathic Dr. Although it has only been a few days, I am already feeling…

Thank you for your reply and also for your concerns. I am going to a certified Naturopathic Dr. who is having fantastic results treating Lyme Disease (Which I have been diagnosed with and there seems to be no treatment for long term Lyme here in Canada) I am slowly dieing and all my Dr and specialists want to do is push…

Thanks for the reply and I will certainly try some of your suggestions. I have never been that big on fish but I guess now is as good a time as any to change that. I know it is very good for us and often wish I could eat and enjoy it more than I do. The one thing my Dr said is that she wants me to separate the fruits from…

I am a senior (but we all suffer from similar problems!) I have always been heavy and have tried to lose weight on and off all my life. Now it has become a real health issue as opposed to a vanity issue. I suffer with arthritis caused by Lyme disease (we think.) I am searching for some answers on that level and have just…

I know the feeling of "falling off the wagon" However, don't worry, it is always going by your door, all you have to do is hop back on...no questions asked! Hopefully with the help of our friends on here we don't fall off too often. Good luck with your journey. Sandy.

Have just been invited out for lunch tomorrow so will have to keep an eye on my choices.... knowing where I am going to be…

Sorry! I just can't imagine what my life would be like without my veggies. Just for example, the other night for supper I had 8 different veg on my plate and that didn't count the tomato/vegetable cocktail that I enjoy with my meals. I wonder if it is because you don't like vegetables or just that you are not in the habit…
-
You asked the question..."Why" the answer to that my friend is...because we are human!!! Now....you get right back on that wagon and continue your journey, you are doing great and just one off day isn't going to spoil all your hard work. We have all been there, some of us more than once, but, as I was told a few weeks ago…

Maybe you were not hungry at all...just thirsty?? That is what I keep reading, that when we are thirsty our bodies trick us into thinking we are hungry. Just wondering. Am exploring this theory myself.

According to the calorie counter on here it was 300 calories....way better than the burger I was…

Hi people, I am really new to this so I hope I don't mess up. I need some help and motivation to keep me going. I have some health issues that have to be addressed as well as my weight problems but I am determined to beat them, even if it is slowly. I have lyme disease so am suffering pain and memory loss just to name a…

Are we talking "naughty" or " NAUGHTY"? Would like to know the calories burned when we are being "NAUGHTY"? Any ideas anyone....? Not that I need to know...(Blush) Just in the name of research of course!

Doesn't anyone care that what is on the inside is WAY more important than the "wrapping paper" I agree that we should all make the best of what God gave us, but at the end of the day, I would much rather date/marry a person who is genuine, loving,respectful, honest and caring... how a person dresses is of little importance…

Hairy legs and armpits are considered sexy in some parts of Europe....just saying...
