I like coconut water. It is naturally sweet and tastes good. I just make my coffee with it.

Hello, My name is Emily. I am 34. On my 34th birthday I looked in the mirror and didn't like what I saw. I felt huge and unhealthy. Unhealthy was the biggest hurdle but I wasn't particularly happy with huge either. In the last 6 months I have lost almost 50 pounds, 37 with the help of MFP. It has been a complete change in…

Peanut Butter. My Grammy used to say that you could eat dirt and if you put peanut butter on it it would be delicious.

Three Bakers make wonderful breads. The ancient grains version is totally awesome and the rye style is decent too. Also I take Udi's buns with me to fast food places and order sandwiches (check about additives) without the bun. THen I take out my bun and make my own sandwich.

OK, here goes. The first time that I tried to lose weight, I tried the calories in calories out method. I ate pretty much whatever I wanted. It was a step for me. I learned about portion control. This time I made some drastic changes to the quality of my calories. The first major change was that I attempted to go vegan.…

I make a list of things that are worth extra calories. Then I carefully decide what I am going to eat. For me turkey is hit or miss, but I will want some pumpkin custard and whipped cream. mashed potatoes are wonderful and Gluten free stuffing are a must, but I can easily skip gravy. Planning is key.

I didn't get to see the diary, but I do have couple of comments. 1. There is absolutely no reason that you cannot stop taking a migraine medication now and let your doctor know after the fact. I you do not think that the doctor's in your town are that great to begin with try some natural remedies and go off the pill in…

Then in my opinion you are doing fine. I don't think you are wrong for keeping track of his weight. Keeping track of his weight will show him that he does need to be aware and accountable when it comes to his body. Isn't that something we are supposed to teach our children?

OK, I have to say this. There ARE bad foods. Ask any of my kids about high fructose corn syrup or monosodium glutamate. There is no reason not to teach your kids that there are bad foods. In fact you should. But I also have to say that a seven year old not being allowed snacks is kind of...different. My kids eat regular…

There is very little that you can do with meat that you cannot do with beans of various types. I made a fantastic stir fry tonight with black beans for the protein element, While I was marinating my husband's chicken, I also marinated two cups of black beans for myself and my kids. Then I drained them (save the marinade…

I have recently gone gluten free because I seem to be gluten intolerant. My doctor is fairly certain that I may have Celiacs but due to money constraints, I have decided to simply cut it out and consider it done. I am enjoying the challenge in my kitchen as I am also vegetarian and try to keep the eggs and cheese to a…
