  • OMG @dawnbgethealthy! That's awful and disruptive! I can't imagine getting up 6 times a night. Everytime I ever tried to increase water intake, it was 3 or 4 times. And that's bad enough. With the salted lemon water I started a month ago, and the smoothie & afternoon drink, both with chia seeds, I'm getting 5-6 hours…
  • Thanks @dawnbgethealthy. The "Quench thing" has been interesting. And it's something that I believe it's going to be sustainable for me, so I will be working it into all of the healthy lifestyle changes I am making. I'm not a water drinker by nature, so all of "the rules" are discouraging to me. So is the peeling. It's…

  • @jenn990205 glad you got good news on the test results
  • Never too late! Welcome!
  • OMG. You've hit on something that's been irritating me for weeks. Seems to me that if you are going to hit "disagree," you should have the common courtesy to post your feedback if it's relevant. Without that, you leave the poster wondering if they could be doing better. Especially in the threads that are so positive and…
  • I use TrendWeight.com. it picks up my weigh-ins from FitBit. (If you don't have a FitBit, you can still create a free account and it can pick up your data from MFP)

  • Nice job to everyone getting back on track after Thanksgiving! @ajhouse - So sorry to read of the loss of your MIL. Sending peace, comfort, and light. @TwistedSassette - Remember that water weighs 1Kg per liter. Dehydration will cause fluid retention, and rehydrating adds weight as it flushes - so timing of the weigh-in is…
  • I thought so too, @dawnbgethealthy. Then I read this in Quench about the benefits of smoothies. "They not only amplify hydration through providing the water locked in plants, but according to Dr. Joel Fuhrman, president of the Nutritional Research Foundation, chewing food releases only about 35 percent of the nutritional…

  • @StatChicBayes - curried pumpkin soup and shrimp sounds wonderful! Care to share the recipe?!
  • Thanks, @mtararoot. It's been slow for sure. And long periods of flat lined trends. I have never had this much trouble dropping weight - it's a brand new learning curve with lots of trial and error. It seems I've hit on something that's working. Time will tell. I suspect it will be spring before I see goal. And that's ok.…
