  • You can do it. As long as we keep going, in spite of mishaps, it is so doable. Been there, done that, and I am back on track. Best of luck. luv. G.
  • I always have fruit on hand. Its very healthy and easy to count cal. Bananas are my favorite. Fruit sugar does not harm you unless you have a special medical condition. Oatmeal is also very good for a filling. All the veggie you can eat, does not matter which ones really. The are extremely low in cal, but very nutritious…
  • Try it. You will never know unless you do. How ever do try to fit greens into your diet. If you dont like them, make smoothies with water, frosen berries and spinach, (any combination will do just as long as you incorporate leafy greens in it.). Eat leafy greens with your dinner also. No fatty dressings though. Try to walk…
  • I usually eat somwhere between half and all of my burned cal, but some days none. Just depends. (On saturdays I eat them all). You at least have to refuel after your workouts so your muscle recover properly. Some say lot of protein, others lots of carbs. Many kinds of shakes that you could have. You can easilly restore…

  • Hi hi. :wink: I just recently started using my mfp account although I logged in for the first time some months ago. I am trying to loose weight with diet and running, but will ad swimming in very soon, as well as bicycling when I can fit it in. Started running regularly last August. I have asthma and have had very big…
  • Thanks Julie. I am getting more aware that I do have to count my calories. Good point. Like I told Scott, and as you are experiencing, I am also having troubles with the side effects of the inhalers. Having been in the ER couple of times during the last year I have come to accept that the inhalers will be a part of my…
  • Thank you, and good news on your result with the treatment. I just love running, gives me a feeling of accomplishment. It soothes me also but at the same time I can relate on the increased appetite.
