  • Have you tried rice pastas to make your Italian foods? I'm sorry I can't help much, I have no experience with getting nauseous around food. It does sound like you're depressed - have you talked with a therapist?

  • My doctor just recommended an anti-inflammatory diet to help my GERD and blood pressure. So I am starting GF, dairy-free, no processed sugar. I don't eat that much processed flour anyhow, so I think losing the dairy is going to be harder for me. I'm glad this group is here - hoping there are some good ideas for GF/DF…

  • Congrats Rose, Sue & Morgan! You guys are all doing awesome. This week was not as "successful" as last week, but I did log everything (even though I went over a few days) and managed to lose .8 lb. I'm really hoping to lose 3 more lbs by the end of September, and I might not make that goal - we'll see.

  • Nice work! That is a great loss. I am posting my accomplishment today, because I'm just proud - I just ran (jogged) 25 minutes straight without walking for the first time in my life over my lunch hour.

  • That's a good one! Good for you.

  • Weekends are DEFINITELY harder for me. I end up estimating portion sizes a lot. This weekend I did go out for a run first thing on Sunday morning, and it made me feel SO GOOD. I have to remember that feeling, so that I can repeat that workout!

  • You can do it! Yesterday is over. Today is a new day. All you can worry about right now is today.

  • What kind of stuff DO you like to eat? This might help people pick out recipes that might appeal. Like others, I like eggs in many forms - especially just fried and put on top of a hearty salad of some kind. When I was kid, I ate a lot of eggs in toast, like this:…

  • Also, with all the summer tomatoes, I've been making an easy tomato and cucumber salad - just chopped tomatoes, sliced cucumbers, a few fresh herbs and thinly sliced red onion if I have them, a little olive oil and red wine vinegar. So refreshing!

  • I'm officially going to bow out of the challenge for this month :( I'm just having a super stressful personal time right now, and work has been crazy, too. I know they are excuses, but the truth is my heart is just not in it this month. :( I will see you guys in April!
