my daughter is gluten free www.glutenfreegoddess.com is a great site. You would be surprised at all the things that have gluten in them.

Fat is a mindset. I learned my eating habits as a child and followed them until a year ago (I'm 49 so that was a LOT of years) after 55lbs gone, I'm still fat. Because that is how I view myself. You're not doomed but you do definitely have obstacles to overcome. Do your best, make small changes and don't look at the big…

Hope you feel better soon!

Wow, it's so amazing the sheer amount of support for whatever life throws at you here! :flowerforyou: I'm Bi-Polar II with GAD and I know what you mean about the struggle. Sometimes you have to make like a crop circle and lay the F down. If your mind won't stop racing listen to some music or read or write the thoughts…

Amy's Light & Lean Pasta & Veggies: http://www.amys.com/products/product-detail/light-lean/000065 DH had one of the paneer dishes. No cooking!

Do you want to be free of rules for food and calories or be free from the weight that is dragging you down? You don't have to deprive yourself of anything, moderation is the key or an extra 1/2 hour on the treadmill if necessary. If you have a bad day, then it's done and over with and you keep going. Falling off the wagon…

Sorry to anyone else, we have enough, and I'm not sure how to delete a post (which I'm probably sure you can't) :heart:

For those meals when your husband and friends aren't around, my first thought is anything you can get through a straw; Ensure, SlimFast, tomato soup, broth :smile: You wouldn't have to worry about spilling on the floor as there would be no utensils to drop food. Wishing you a speedy recovery!

ICE ICE ICE!!!!! I've had 4 knee surgeries, the last one to have it replaced. Those 7 pounds are on your knee and not on your hips. I also screwed the replacement up by overdoing it. Not the joint itself, but the muscles and tendons around it. Put that baby up high enough that it is above the level of your heart (mound a…

Raw almonds are my favorite go-to. It is amazing how much sodium is in everything! For example: a house salad from Olive Garden packs over 1000 mg of sodium!!!! :huh:

1. every day is a new day. 2. plan your menu out for the day in advance and do your darnedest to stick to it. 3. come out here a lot, there's so much support. 4. don't get discouraged by people who lose weight quickly. everyone loses it at their own pace. 5. exercise even if it's just for 10 minutes a day, do something you…

It's not just wheat, it's anything with gluten in it. My daughter is gluten-sensitive and I've been playing around with going gluten free also. She's lost a tremendous amount of belly fat and 60lbs overall. The best plan is to cut out all gluten for 2 weeks and then start adding some back and see what happens to you and…

that soup is soooo good! I also like her potato and leek soup :smile:

My daughter and grandson are both sensitive to gluten. Cutting gluten out of her diet stopped the bloating, IBS and other nasty things.. It's amazing what has gluten in it. I'm with everyone else, two weeks without gluten, including foods that have monosodium glutamate, it's in a lot of different foods, especially…

This recipe took less than 10 minutes (15 if you include prep time) and was really good! http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/08/quick-skillet-steak-with-onions-and.html I used frozen sandwich steaks and sliced them before I cooked them.

I have the same thing, see if this sounds right (it's from webmd.com) Ball of Foot Pain Metatarsalgia produces pain and inflammation in the ball of the foot. Strenuous activity or ill-fitting shoes are the usual causes. Treatment for metatarsalgia includes: pain relievers change to more comfortable footwear inserts for the…

I think that would be a good idea.
