The new RDA amount is 2300 so that is what I have mine set at.

Booze. Food I would regret alcohol I would never.

I love this post. Yes, in a sense it is a social networking site but if you wanna go all extreme besides the blogs then do so just don't have those people as friends. I do not have a facebook and am very sad that the site resembles it so much. I just like to log my foods, reply to posters and look at diaries.

Fresh foods, cook your own meals and freeze them if its a soup or something. Stay away from packaged foods especially lunch meats they are full of sodium as well as canned soups.

I have IBS recently dianosed (within the last year) and I haven't had any issues with breakfast. I usually just eat 1/2-3/4 cup of oatmeal with 1-1/2 cup of water microwaved then mixed in a frozen banana with a glass of milk or just a bowl of cereal. If I am going to go run though I usually I eat a small piece of fruit an…

None, you should get just about all of your vitamins from natural foods.

Post shredded wheat and bran- love it, but I am used to cereals without sugar. Cheerios-Original Kashi heart to heart-Toasted oats pretty much the same thing as cheerios but lower sodium Kashi- Go lean, it is amazing. Barbaras- Shredded spoonfuls multrgrain Fiber one- honey clusters Any cereal should have 2 grams of fiber…

Dang, you go girl! I will start running my 6 miles in about two weeks. You totally just inspired me! I run roughly an 8:30 and I do not wish to run anyfaster but you inspired me! I run my five miles now with in 45 mins so I will run 6 within an hour is great for me!

Indefinitely try to wake up earlier to give yourself time to eat breakfast. I have learned how much of a difference breakfast actually makes. with either a big lunch or dinner and a snack in between. This way your not stuffing yourself completely. Eat just enough to feel full.

I am tired of being criticized for being healthy. That since I eat healthy I don't eat anything fun. Well pardon me, I do have a cheat day and I do not have a desire to eat the foods that they do! I have become very happy with the way I eat and how it makes me feel. When I do have my cheat day and god forbid I have ONE…

Just to note that the sodium set on is here higher than the RDA amount of 2300 daily as to where it is set 2500 on here.

I have eaten many vegetarian and meatless. I love boca burgers and amy's products as well as other lines of meatless foods. I love gardein products. The only thing I don't think I could give up is dairy products I have tried soy milk and almond milks they are not bad at all. I just don't prefer sweet tasting milks. Thanks…

I have completed two and they are not terrible difficult seeing as how they are designed for all ages, but they are super fun. Definitely strength train though along with being to run a 5k. If you are going to run make sure you do it outside and on different terrain than just pavement. I'm sure you will do WAYY better than…

I don't hate it, no. I just didn't enjoy it. I gave everything to my friend who more than LOVES it. I think it just depends on the person. It just wasnt mean for me. Congrats to everyone else though :)

Without actually knowing but I would say you will be FINE! Especially since you are going to split it in half and save it also your doing a cheat meal! Enjoy it ":) thats just my unprofessional opinon!

I have eaten most or all of mine back since I started day one although I am maintaining now, so I am thinking that will be different. I never had any trouble losing any weight even with eating them back. I think that would be because I increased my metabolism. Not sure just though I would share my experience :)

Sorry, I am the opposite of you I will go days where I am not hungry but maybe once.

Read the book and liked it although I am not vegetarian or Vegan like the book pushes I do enjoy some of the foods they have in there!

If you do sandwiches same thing I was raised on buy deli meats actual ones they cut there for you generally lower in sodium and cheaper for what you actually get. Whole grain breads from the store and low fat cheese (also some have lower sodium) if you want to pack and go. My thoughts on subway is I love it! I don't eat it…

a. apple bran muffins b. bananas c. cottage cheese d. deli cheese e. egg whites f. fajitas g. granola h. hommus i. iced tea j. jimica k. kashi cereal l. los cucos. m. milk (non-fat) n. nutella o. oatmeal p. peanut butter q. quaker rice cakes r. roma tomatoes s.sweet potatoes t. tuna fish u. unsalted butter? v. veggies…

Correct! Bare minimum nutrients should come from your foods, unless you have a diffeciency and it is discusses with a health care professional.

I love this.

Also to note the settings they have defaulted here are higher than the RDA. They have 2500 is which an older amount the updated RDA is 2300.

Yes ma'am.

Blackberry user here! I used to have an Iphone and I loved the app but I hated the phone. It was so much more conveinent! I will just patiently wait with everyone else in the mean time. :(

I feel confident I have down my portion sizes and what not I just want to be able to live life normally and comfortably again!! Haha more cookies yes and more starbucks double yes! (in moderation though). I just don't want to have to eat something and think am i going to have to work this off? Agreed LOVE the response.

I get back to nature orignal granola and I mix it in with a carbmaster yogurt and it is so heavenly! Other than that I would make my own but the organic without salts added.

I didn't hate it as much as when I had the app available its just more inconveinent on the computer.

Thanks :) I have pretty much been logging most everyday since end of November-ish. I love the suggestions I just feel redicuolously addicted but I think I might try it!

I really just don't want to do it anymore having to find a computer and log everything I eat. Ugh maybe I wouldnt think this would be so frustrating if the blackberry app worked! sicembears- I think I might try for a day or two and see how I do I am pretty sure I could do okay. and thanks :)
