  • I just got the classic chocolate one from Sun Warrior. I really like it. http://www.sunwarrior.com
  • Compassionatecook.com is a good resource to try. She has a free podcast and some of her earlier ones (accessible though iTunes) cover some of this. She has one that talks about it being impossible to be a 'perfect vegan' and that's usually how people try to perceive vegans

  • Awesome! I'm assuming your doctor did blood work and will repeat it? If you don't mind posting the numbers or the change I'd love to see how things improved. If you're feeling better I'm sure some of your blood markers have gotten better :-)

  • I've been with fitbit since they started about 3 years ago. I love it! I have a Fitbit One right now which I'm extremely pleased with. I love being able to sync with my iphone 5 during the day; before that I would have to wait until the end of the day to sync. I love that I can "hide" it by placing it on my bra; I know…
  • One of the reasons a plant based diet works for lowering cholesterol is because usually when people switch to that diet they increase their fiber. Unless you're already eating a lot of soluble fiber, increasing it can help lower cholesterol. The three foods highest in soluble fiber are oatmeal, lentils, and pears. However,…
  • My FitBit! I have a HRM too and I do like it, but if I had to choose, it would be my FitBit, hands down :-)
  • I have a Fitbit One, and I love it! I've been with fitbit since they started; they are a great company and they really care about their customers. I like their products because they can be hidden. I wear mine on my bra as do most other women; my dad wears it on his undershirt. I like being able to track my workouts and…
  • Hey! I'm a fourth year medical student and I've gained about 20lbs since the beginning of school. I lost some of it, but then gained it right back. I've ended up traveling a bit for rotations, and that has been extremely difficult on my diet. I was a vegetarian for most of school and recently switching to vegan. I find it…
  • Not all vegetarians are so because of moral/ethical justifications. Personally, I became a vegetarian because I hate the taste of all meat products. I recently decided to try being vegan, but before that I ate eggs and dairy products.
  • You don't have to have the basestation plugged in all the time, however it does need to be plugged in to sync. That's really the only downside I have with it because I'm gone at work all day (and sometimes all night too), and I don't really see my data until I get home and sync. I know some people have taken their…
  • Hello, I'm Audrey. I'm new to MFP but I've been on similar sites before. I was a vegetarian for about 10 years and almost 2 months ago decided to try cutting out dairy. I found I feel so much better! Maybe I'm a bit intolerant, I don't know. But I figured the next logical step was to be vegan. I didn't eat much eggs,…
