I've been a vegetarian for about 7 years. I'm trying to go vegan but it's been really hard to give up on the cheese. I've also been an unhealthy vegetarian but I have been trying to fix that recently.

Good for you! You just reminded me that I have to get myself screened. I don't feel too unhealthy but I have never seen my numbers. Keep up the good work!

I've been trying to find ways to cope with stress and what has worked wonders for me is good old walking. I put on my earphones, turn up my tunes, and just walk. It has sort of become a hobby, it's great. I'll walk for miles either in the street or on trails.

I've never tried the black bean pasta. Have to look for it. I love meat subs. I try to stay away from too much processed foods so I look for things that are more whole foods. I do a lot of lentils and chickpeas. Our rule in the house is that if we find a recipe that requires chicken, we substitute with chickpeas. Anything…

I'm 37. In the last year I lost about 25 pounds but gained most of it back by sticking to old habits. I'm in the process of losing it again and keeping it off this time around. I track all my food daily and I'm open to sharing ideas with others!

I started doing more walking now and I'm enjoying it. My knees don't hurt and my legs feel stronger. The other day I planned to go…

I already have these things on a daily basis. I eat oatmeal with different types of nuts. I eat the legumes, beans, veggies and all that stuff. I guess I do get enough for an average person but I'm always paranoid about reaching that percentage which is a little higher than average.

Welcome and good luck! I consider myself an emotional eater. I have a stressful job and most of the times I find myself eating the most unhealthiest foods out there. My weakness is pizza. I can eat it all day, everyday. Since I started using MFP to count my calories, I found that by tracking my intake, I can see that I can…

I tried Loseit for a little while but I find MFP beats it by a mile.

Hi Anne and welcome back. I've also been on MFP for a while now but been serious the last couple of weeks. In the last year I have lost about 30 pounds with exercise and healthy eating but gained some back just being lazy. That's the reason why I decided to come back to MFP and I'm hoping to stick with it for as long as I…

I've been vegetarian for about 7 years. I'm 5'10 and about a year ago I was 205lbs. My wife took some pictures of me and just like you, I realized I had to lose some weight. I'm not a gym person at all so I started working out at home to Insanity. I dropped to 179lbs after two months but soon after that, I got lazy again…
