Do belly rolls when you are not typing! Move your belly in and out and until you are either out of breath or you can feel your stomach getting a work out. You will be surprised by how much of a work out this really is. Your stomach muscles will start to get sore but it will burn a little calories while your sitting down…

Since MFP doesn't separate natural sugars from artifical sugar, try subtracting the amount of sugar from the fruit from the total so you get a better sense of what might be added artifical sugar depending on what you eat for your other meals if your still concerned about your sugar intake. But still try not to eat too much…

Nope. i have not either.

I am still trying to overcome the binge eating. I have made some great progress. Thinking about my triggers which are the slighest bit of boredom and stressful emotions. I suggest Measuring your food so you get used to eating proper portions, I was surprised to see what a real portion of some of my fave foods are as to…

I am lucky and get two 15 min breaks a day and my half hour lunch at 1pm so I eat at 1230 while i work to prevent from eating too fast and not feeling satisfied.

Don't give up. I weighed 218 when I started here end of july as well. This site has helped me manage my portions and intake on fats, cals, and all that good stuff I was cutting out everytime i tried to diet. Now I feel that is is just a lifestyle change than a diet.

I had a really big problem with portion control. It didnt matter that I ate alot of chicken and veggies during the week or salad because i would eat creamy dressings and too much of it.
