I would suggest Ezekiel bread (or bagels, english muffins, etc)- I usually eat a cinnamon raisin bagel or regular bagel for breakfast- the different bagels ranged between 11 and 13g of protein, 4-8g of fiber, and about 1.5g of fat. Also, for a snack I will usually eat an apple with a Babybel light cheese (50 calories, 6g…

Here's kind of a short difference. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_difference_between_naturopathy_and_homeopathy Also, my doctor used to be an ER doctor, but she realized one day she wasn't where she was meant to be, and went on to do 30 years of studies. I learned as much from her as I can, however now she is busy…

This is the best way I can explain the proportions and it's how my naturopathic doctor told me to measure- You need about a handfull (with hand stretched out) of carbs, a palm full of protein, and a thumb full of healthy fat. Now, your trainer may alter yours a bit depending on the workouts you're doing as far as portion…

You're welcome, thank you for taking the time to read it. I would love to help support each other. From what I gather so far, that's what this site is all about!:flowerforyou:

It's okay, I'll take support from anywhere. It's all the same on the internet anyway!

Welcome! I just joined on Monday and would love to be your friend. We can help motivate each other!:smile: I love Wii Fit too! I just got the higher step for it and the dumb bells, but I haven't used them yet.

Oh, and I am also from Washington State, not DC :wink:

Thank you all so much. It's true that when you are off foods for about a week, you do not crave them anymore. I was off sugar, gluten, dairy, caffeine, pretty much anything and everything last year when I was doing well. I started by eliminating everything except meat, vegetables (no starchy or any that grew underground-…

It depends on what all they serve at the restaurant, but one of my favorites at a restaurant I love is a chicken fajita salad. It is basically fajita veggies and chicken, with pico de gallo on the side. I ask for it with no shell and no sour cream. Also camarones al mojo de ajo - Mexican style. This is a shrimp and…

Okay my list might be a little different, because I am gluten intolerant and have a dairy sensitivity (no wheat, rye, barley, or oats, and dairy only twice a week). 1. Everything to make my smoothies: baby spinach, frozen berries, bananas, almond milk. (makes the best snack) 2. All types of fresh fruit- apples, oranges,…

I was always a person to weigh every day. It's been proven however, that people are generally more successful if you just work hard and weigh yourself once a week. I finally had my fiance hide my scale and bring it out on Fridays. Your body fluctuates so much that you just may be retaining water, gaining muscle, etc. You…

Just a tip- eating something high in fiber or high in protein are the things that will keep you full longer. That being said, I need to adjust mine, because it does not allow me enough calories either.:wink:

Thank you so much. I can't tell you what that means to hear from a complete stranger. It was really hard to put a piece of my life story out there, because I've never done that. It's really hard admitting it all to myself and to the world, but I knew it was one of the first steps for me to help me on my journey. Plus,…

I am from Richland, Washington. We had some snow around Thanksgiving and it stayed until the day before Christmas, then melted. LAME! It rained yesterday and the roads were icy last night. I'd take snow any day over that! :wink:

My apologies for giving you misinformation (and on my first ever post, go figure). It is sad when your local health food store even misguides you- that's who told me it was okay for people with Celiac Disease to eat Ezekiel bread. I apparently failed with this information, although Here's my reprieve- Food for life is the…

Okay, I love pot roast with veggies, pork carnitas for tacos, and turkey salsa chili that I make often, but I just tried a new one that we liked and it's super simple, so here goes: Crockpot pineapple chicken: Take 3 or 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, lay in bottom of pan. Season with black pepper and paprika (as much…

I am gluten intolerant and also have a dairy sensitivity. There are so many substitutions you can use for normal things that you love. For a healthy bread- try Ezekiel. It is kept in the freezer section. It is made of sprouted grains- there are many choices of different kinds of bread, bagels, english muffins, buns, etc. I…
