I would listen to what your doctor says should be your calorie count then from strangers on the internet that do not know anything about your medical or health history. I know that people mean well when they give advise on here, but sometimes what works for one will not work for another. :) Some of the people on here have…

My heart and mind

You sound like me.... I need a place to rant. It seems once I get it out I can move on a little bit better. My emotions does effect the way I eat sometimes. So I say, keep ranting if you need!!! Just consider us friends with BIG ears...LOL :)

Yum!! I need to get some popcicle molds :)

The only brand of Apple Cider Vinegar that I take is the Bragg Apple cider vinegar. It is not for everyone, but I like it.

I have to agree with most of what everyone has replied with. You are not eating enough. I am surprised you havnt passed out from hunger.

Very nice post. I think there are always people around that are so ready to try and steal your joy. They are so afraid to give a compliment. I think it is a way for THEM to think THEY have some kind of control... Thing is, I feel good about my accomplishments and that is something NO one can take away from me. Thanks for a…

Sincere

Oh.... as far as diet.... that would depend on what it is affecting... If it affects your cholestrol, then you want to eat foods that will help lower your cholestrol. I would ask your physician to give you a basic diet to work with. I have to watch my cholestrol too. I can only share what my doctor has me doing but it…

Hello Brandy, I have hypothyroidism and have had for the past 10 years at least. It affects everyone different but there are a few common symptoms. Fatigue,high cholestrol,brain fog,swelling of face and hands...etc. If you do not take your medication you can actually feel like you are going through pms and change of life…

Thanks for the topic, I am always looking for recipes and such too :)

Awesome work!! Thank you for sharing and inspiring us! Congratulations to you :) :happy:

Count me in, friend request sent. :bigsmile:

Geeez, It seems that when you say something or if you don't say anything you offend someone..... I just be myself and don"t worry about what everyone else is doing.

Maybe I am just old fashion but I think it is disrespectful to you. I think too many people feel like they have to except behavior they don:t like just to keep the person they are with. ......... I think it is unfair for a partner to expect someone to do this. I think your partner should have more respect for you and YOU…

I personally do not see anything wrong with wanting to reward yourself :) I guess to each their own.... I have not really thought of what I would reward myself with...... I would want to keep it healthy though :)

Keeping fresh fruit and nuts would be a good option too.

I tend to eat the same foods. I live alone and it is just easier to track and it saves on my food budget.. I like to cook in a crock pot so I will make a few meals there and freeze so that during the week all I have to do is take out of freezer and warm up. When I get tired of eating same thing I will make a big crock pot…

I am just getting started so I hope you are not comparing my diary to what others eat.... Not only that I am going to make a doctors appointment to have some blood work done because I do have a thyroid and cholestrol problem and I do not want to harm myself trying to keep up with what everyone else is eating. It is…

Please dont give up!! Make an appointment with a doctor to see if there is a reason why you are not able to lose weight. Dont beat yourself up.... You may have a thyroid problem or etc...... This is the reason why I do not just go by what other people say because when I do that I get discouraged. ... I have experience in…

I would suggest cook a big pot of something healthy that would last you a few days too. My daughter taught me how to eat this way. Example: Make a pot of northern beans (or whatever beans you like) add bell peppers, celery, onions.... ham.... Then properly store the leftovers in a way tht all you need to do is bring them…

Since I am just really getting started on the journey of losing weight, I am feeling the same way.

I am having to watch my sodium intake because I tend to retain water when I eat too much sodium. I have some health issues to cosider too. If you are having a weight gain or swelling problem with increased sodium, I would suggest a visit to your doctor to see if there is anything else that needs to be considered in your…

Make an appointment with your doctor before deciding how to eat , what to eat and how much excersice and such. No one can really properly tell you what o eat before you see a doctor because there may be a health issue to consider before you proceed. There may be a medical issue that can explain why you are not losing…

I would suggest going to the doctor and let them do some blood work just to be sure that there are no serious conditions going on. This would help you to find out what kind of diet that would best suit YOUR needs. I have a thyroid problem and cholestrol problem amongst some other health issues so I am having to little by…

I am so glad that you have asked this question because I struggle with drinking water too. I think that for me is because I dont like the taste of it very much. It does taste a little better when cold though.

I don[t mean to be rude when I say this but ,,,, what was you thinking to agree to take care of this woman? What I am really hearing from you is ;;; I resent caring for her, she is doing these things to ruin my day, I have farm work to do and that is more important then taking care of my inlaw, and I dont care if my mother…

Hie Sweetie :)

I would say the family needs to hire someone to care for her instead of resenting caring for her. It is the family responsability to make sure she is properly taken care of.

At my age of 51, I dont think a penis is going to help me lose weight..... lol ... Seriously though, If I was married, it wouldnt be any of anyones business what my hubbies penis looked like.
