Thanks for all the responses! I will def check out ohsheglows. As for calorie counting, ahh I don't want to go anywhere near that again. I know I'm not overweight (though I'd like to be more toned), and that has never been a good method of eating for me. I'm much happier and at ease with food when I eat intuitively. My…

I never knew that! Definitely rethinking the Costco size bags of spinach and kale. But a good reason to try new recipes

I try to balance my workouts. If I do cardio in the morning I try to do strength or flexibility based training in the evening. My strength training is body weight exercises like lunges, squats, and push-ups. Should I be making more of an effort to add weights? Like the ones at the gym? I usually do bench press, free…

Oh my goodness, I didn't know I had posted twice... That's what I get for doing it on my phone... Thank you so much!

I don't know about the fat and protein content, but above is what I typically eat on a daily basis with some variations. I definitely drink MORE than the recommended amount of water.

Another addition: both my jobs are desk jobs, mostly just sitting and getting faxes etc.

Thank you for all the words of advice (and dealing with my typos up there)! I am def going to try for more protein today and see how that goes. Any other suggestions are very much appreciated. Thanks you all!

Not an all liquid diet for good, but for tomorrow to ease the bloat and pain in my stomach because I honestly don't think I could eat something solid until all this binge food gets moving thru my system..

Yup, lots of this is ringing true (especially reacting to sugar like a crack addict to crack, it's frightening….) I like to be in control of my eating (like pretty much all of us I'm guessing) and I work really really hard to stay in shape so these days when I go overboard and am actually in pain from eating so much I feel…

It was on light because I felt like I spent a lot of time sitting in class or on my computer doing work, but I switched it to moderate?

A pretty typical day (two variations!) for me if I stay on track is- Breakfast A Plain Non Fat Greek Yogurt Kashi Go Lean Protein/Fiber Cereal Breakfast B (after a workout) Egg white omelet with spinach, chives, onions, tomatoes, green and red peppers, mushrooms Yogurt with granola and fruit Lunch A Quinoa Zucchini Veggie…

Hello! 21:) And your job sounds fabulous. Painting after wine? I wish we had something like that near me…
