I don't think that's bad. As long as it is just a once in a while thing, I think that we'd all be fine having a burger now and then. In my house, I am making a goal of us only eating bad stuff like pizza once a week. I am going to try to incorporate special occasions falling on bad food nights. I don't always have to eat…

I learned something new last night. While I was cooking dinner last night, I started doing leg lifts, lunges, twists, running in place, between stirring and watching the food. My kitchen/dining area being the hub of the home put me next to my kids. They joined in while I was working out and the activity just went uphill.…

Okay, very touchy subject that I am about to broach on. First of all, I love Sushi and I do eat it, but it is filled with tons of parasites that get into our bodies and spread like wild fire. They can cause us to have headaches, stress, hunger, anxiety, depression, weight gain, irritability, etc. I don't remember if I ever…

Thank you, thank you everyone. =) I just tried to check and see if I could edit the topic name and I can't, so I guess I look like a big quitter, lol. It's funny, I did not want to write I quit smoking on the main topic because I have always hid my smoking. I don't smoke in public, I don't adverstise that I smoke (used to…

Last night I had my last cigarette.:drinker: I do not smoke anymore. :drinker: I'm hoping that if I have a positive mindset that it will be eaiser to quit. As long as I don't forget that I don't smoke, I'm okay. A few times, I forgot that I no longer smoke and my mind said, "go smoke". Then I have to fight myself a little…

I've had days like that. Could you be low in iron? Could it be nearing that time? Just trying to think of some reasons other than lack of sleep. I hope that you get a huge boost of energy soon!! Showers always help me wake up when nothing else will.

My new thing is rice cakes. I haven't had them in years and I was surprise at the different flavors they have. Peanut butter chocolate chip, it's really yummy, and I also tried the Apple Cinnamon, I liked that one too!! =)

It's funny that you mention that hmmm because the other day I laid day on the couch and fell asleep to Shrek, I was living in Shrek land, lol.

Don't beat yourself up. Last night was my hubby's birthday and I ate over my calories because I made eggrolls. I ate three of them and one quail. . Today, I am right back on track. =) I am not going to beat myself over it because that will cause me to eat more. Don't beat yourself up, just start fresh. New day, second…

Since I started this new life change, I didn't have a dream about portioning, but I did have a dream about counting calories, lol.

Hugs to you and prayers being said for you that you will have peace and comfort. :heart: I hope that your day is a better one and good job on skipping the donut. Can you imagine how that would have made you feel??

Thanks for all of this good information. :smile:

Hi Connie. I'm sorry that you had a bad dream last night. I HATE bad dreams. They usually stick with me for quite a while. If I take a nap, I have a bad dream. If I sleep when I am not tired enough, I have a bad dream. This also happens to my sister. I hope that your day is a good one and that you are able to put your…

If I understand correctly, the BMR (basal metabolic rate) is the number of calories that our body would burn if it were laying in bed all day. When we tell the MFP tool that we want to lose 1 pound a week, it will subtract 500 calories a day from our BMR. So, if your BMR is 2000 and you want to lose 1 pound a week it will…

You have answered many questions that I have wondered about. BUT, I do have one other question. I am trying to develop the mentality of eating when hungry, not eating when not hungry. I mean, we should not stuff ourselves to the point of being sick lazy people. So, this has not happened very often but there have been 2…
