  • I was glad to see your post. I too have calorie "blow-outs." But since I've been tracking calories (I'm losing weight-yay!!!) and eating much less, I find my stomach has definitely gotten smaller. If I have a feast, usually the next day I eat 300-500 calories (300 is sufficient for me most of the time) because I find that…

  • I've had that problem, and I know how frustrating it is. I worked up to walking 10 miles on my treadmill every Saturday and I weighed before and after my walk. Who wouldn't lose weight after walking 10 miles, right? Even if it's just water weight from sweat. Welllllll, there were times that I weighed more when I got off…

  • Here a link for the pita bread I was speaking of: https://www.josephsbakery.com/shop/flax-oat-bran-whole-wheat-pita-bread.html Not sure if you can get it in the UK. Could probably get it online and have it shipped. It's got a decent shelf life.

  • I've also had the Flax Meal "cereal". It's good with peanut butter, but it has (to me) almost a banana like flavor, so mashing a half (or whole) banana in it is also really good. I also sweeten it with stevia.

  • Ahhhh....BEANS! Pinto Beans, Red Beans, Black Beans. I eat those regularly in a Josephs Flax Whole Wheat Pita with a dollop of fat free sour cream, or guacamole, or salsa/picante. The pitas are also high protein, high fiber, and low carb. I also eat beans over a salad. I usually cook them from dry and make enough to freeze…

  • Previously, I was on a low calorie diet supervised by a physician and it was very VERY low carb (30g or less). I've had a few health problems that I've dealt with so now I'm ready to shed some pounds. This go round, I am allowing myself carbs, but only good ones! I will eat low cal/carb, high fiber wheat pita and wheat…

  • If you are feeling unusually tired, by ALL means, go have blood work done! I felt tired like that a couple of years ago and when my blood work came back my vitamin D was very deficient (almost non-existent!). If you aren't feeling like yourself, definitely go see the doctor. I can't tell you what a HUGE difference bringing…
