  • I suggest you talk with a doctor or nutritionist/dietitian about your diet before going off an a diet. I won't say you are eating too little or too much, because I am vegetarian and while I sometimes eat a lot of food, it is all vegetables or fruits, which doesn't translate into calories as prescribed by a chart on…

  • I find that fresh eggs are cheaper and you can just toss the egg yolks. That's how I do it. A friend suggested it to me when i said I was buying egg substitute.She had actually done a comparison of the store bought over the fresh. Also, if you are cutting back on dairy, you can use tofu as an egg substitute. I just found…

  • Wear a pedometer every day and you will be able to determine if you have a sedentary life or not. When I worked, I thought I had a sedentary lifestyle, because I worked in an office, but after wearing a pedometer, I found that I was walking more than 10,000 steps most days. I walked up and down 15 flights of stairs several…

  • I'm a "3 score + 6" years young mum and grandmum who loves to knit, crochet, ride a bike, dance and play pickleball. I, too, want to lose 20 pounds by "whenever they disappear."

  • Brawler Bella, I know what you mean! Went to UTEP in El Paso. Brought some of those meals with me. Taste much better home cooked. Have switched to chicken tacos, though. Still good!

  • Haven't seen any McD's on my page, but lots of weight loss and nutrition. I'm obsessing, I guess! Lucky for me I don't like fast good much any more. I will go with my hubby to KFC or Burger King, where I can get a salad. I eat a fry or two from his meal, but I don't eat fried foods too much.

  • I think you should do what you feel is right for you. One important thing here, is that you not let the comments get to you.
