You will feel so much better! In a week or two, you will have so much found energy - sugar really weighs you down - fun experiment to try - put a can of coke in a bucket of water - it sinks to the bottom - try it with a diet coke - it floats to the top (I am not advocating artificial sweetner, as I think it is bad as well)…

Find your mantra - a great tune or saying - I do not want to become a diabetic - so I look at junk food and think "needles". Now I can laugh and scoff at all that unhealthy food! I have a small goal posted on the fridge and I am 3lbs away from hitting it. One step at a time!

I agree with JH ! First - Are you dehydrated??? Second - are you low on potassium .... (From Dehydration) Do the pinch test or try a gatorade and see if that helps - Next - what foot gear are you wearing? If you are in flip flops - problem may be solved - Knee pain can be attributed to no support on the front of the foot,…

you should try breathe right strips ... they helped me . I had a broken nose which made me snore - after the first night with the strips, I woke up much more refreshed, Also, you rest really well after some exercise. Even a little 10 minute brisk walk!

Yes - it is time to get creative ... I would make simple desserts like pudding and decorate it - It would become"Bats in the Belfry, or Pigs in Space. Get rid of all labels and make up your own!

Hello: I survived an accident that became a life changer. You look so happy and determined! I am inspired. Have you tried resistance bands (Walmart has a set with a DVD) or a program called Sit and be fit? If you can move at all, anything helps! I still try my old workout videos, but I modify (no jumping or hopping for me…

Broccoli has more protein than chicken! I was a vegan for 21 days .... then our gourmet grocery had a steak sandwich cookout! (hanging my head now) I cannot lie and I am both a carni and omnivore! I am very proud of anyone who can follow a vegan diet. We are meatless 3 - 4 days a week. Mushrooms also have lots of protein.…

Hubby is G Free - cannot wait to surprise him! Thanks for taking the time to post!

It is hard to get started, but you will feel so much better. My suggestion is to go to the library or research online. G free has come along way. Rice, corn and potatoes will be your main stays! Brown rice is the healthiest. Gluten free frozen waffles become 'bread' for peanut butter. Try brown rice pasta, rice cakes or…

Luv my fitbit - I had problems and they replaced it twice - FAST customer service - can't live without it - teams up well with MFP - worth every $$$ :laugh:

First, check to see if you are thristy .... thristy can act like hunger ..... water, water, water .... if that doesn't work, eat something light like an apple or orange or string cheese. If I am ravinessly hungary, I will eat a salad with some cheese, or a cup of cheerios - This body cue means that if I eat (healthy food)…

If tattoo's were removable, I would have a dragon tattooed on the top of my hand, because I have been chasing this dragon for years! (I have done this with green ink and a rubber stamp) After I get to desired weight, I would tattoo that dragon on my a**, so that dragon will finally be chasing me! HA HA HA

I taught myself to love dark chocolate -I went from milk to dark to 60% - now I like the Intense 72% (crazy, I know) Anything over 70% is not considered candy, it is considered an antioxidant! They are so rich, you really can only eat one (or two) and it is not a deal breaker. They are low in sugar, but give you that…

Follow the couponing blogs - they do all of the work for you! They direct you to what store and where to get the coupons. See if your local dollar stores sell the sunday paper for $1, and ask friends or family for leftover coupon flyers, or print the coupons online. Also, look for food pantry in your area - sometimes you…

When I have to have something, I use the arnolds or brownberry 100 calorie sandwich rounds. They are flat disc bread cut in half so each side is 50 calories. I use them for pizza crust or make them into an inside out grilled cheese. Even if you use 1.5 or 2, it is not a deal breaker. I usually add lots of veggies or…

My sister worked for a Doctor and when she was offered the wrong type of food for her eating plan, he spoke up and said . "No - She is in Spring Training" - I have adapted this for myself ..... No, I am in Training - you fill in the blank . ..... Spring Training, Marathon training ... whatever. This really intrigues people…
