MIne's open but I do like to read others diary. II don't do it t to critize or stalk anyone but to get ideas on other foods or meals I could eat. We all get caught in the eating the same thing trap and it's nice to see someones who successful and what they eat. :love: :flowerforyou:

This sounds delicious. Adding it to my menu. Thanks for sharing it.

I have plantar fascitis as well. The treadmill is probably not helping it. My doctors recommend I use a bicycle or swimming for exercise. It does help tremedously to use the shoes with curved bottoms like sketchers, where you take the pressure off your heels. These have saved my life. Also tape your arches before you…

My favorites are a fajati omelettte, I buy the frozen chicken mix, use 3 oz of chicken with peppers and onions, top with 1/8 cup Mexican cheese,serve with salsa and a slice of avacado. Second place is an Italian omelette, Italian turkey sausage with peppers and onions, top with 1 slcie of provolone. An omelette my husband…

Good morning back to you from Colorado. There are quite of few of us older folks here, Welcome to MFPand wishing you success on this journey. You came to the right place. Nan, Elizabeth, Co

Chicken soup couldn't be easier. All you need is a pre-cooked rostierre Chicken (you can use white meat only), large container of fat free chicken broth, frozen mixed vegetables or peas and carrot mix. Noodles can be your choice, you can do a no yolk egg noodle, whole grain noodle, or I have been using the tofu noodles. If…

Welcome. You took the first step. You'll do great. A very handy tip is to fillout your diary the night before for the next day. It really helps you when you know what you can and can't eat. I always look at my diary when I want to add something to a meal, knowing I have to have available calories.

I do the exact same thing. Usually I will pop a werthers sugar free original candy in my mouth or a cup of hot tea.

Fantastic, you should be so proud of yourself. Great job!!!

4oz pork tenderloin, 1/2 sweet potato, green beans,...... 4oz baked cod, melon, 1/2 cup cooked wild rice, , ...spaghetti squash with marina and ground turkey,....... stuffed zucchin with ground turkey and vegetables and pasta.....chicken breast with acorn squash and green beans.....................

Not sure it would qualify for very easy, but a healthy recipe my daughter taught me ws chop up zucchini, summer squash, onions, peppers, celery and garlic. Cook till clear then add a can of tomatoes. Pot this all in a food processor and puree to sauce. Return to pan and add a can of tomato sauce, 2 tablespoon basil, 2 tab…

I feel you. I got a reaccurence of plantar fasticis from what the doctor says is running. He says each time it will get worse and harder to rid of. Problem being I loved running in the c25k program. He and physical therapist both tell me I shoudn't run. 5 want to anyway as I love the way it made me feel. I did try running…

Have you seen your Doctor? I would start there. Then is there anything better than a nice long walk or a long soak in a hot bath with a great book. Two of my favorite de-stressers

I love your post. Congrats on loving and pampering you. As mom's we rarely do that. Keep up the fantastic work

There is helpful information of the link I attached that allows you to calculate how much water you need for your height and weight. 8 glasses a day is recommended for everyone but water is like calories, your body has an individual need. Hope this is helpful. http://nutrition.about.com/ (Go to water calculation)

I had lost my mojo as well. It really helped me when others in my family joined me on MFP. We now talk daily and it keeps me in check. Maybe you can find some others to join you.

Happily married for 35 years, havent worn my ring in 30. Never have given it a thought. Be proud it's too big

Someone just told me about these as well, with the diet plan so I looked it up. It sounds dangerous to me. Here is the link : http://www.dietsinreview.com/diet_column/07/hcg-diet-look-elsewhere-for-weight-loss/

Taco Bell carnitas fresco taco are good and lo in calories, Chick fila grilled chicken sandwich is good, I alwaysget stuck taking the grandkids to McDonalds so I get a kids meal there, chicken nugget, not the best but lower in calories, also any of those mexican grills have lo-cal taco meals, and if you have Rumbi's Island…

Good for you! What a great positive attitude. I know you can and will do it.

Find a new doctor! You are doing amazing, 45 minute run 3-4 days a week is great. I had a nutritionist tell me because I run 2-3 miles 3-4 times a week I was considered very active. SO who's right? A second opinion is always benefical. DOn't lose your mojo

I thought that myself when I did c25k. I was amazed when I did it. Aslong as you continue on the plan I'm betting you will breeze throught it. By the way I'm 55, very overweight, and the most exercise I had before this was going to the frdge. Needless to say if I can do it, anyone can. Tips, ipod, chewing gum, tissues, and…

Mexican bean salad, spaghetti squash with marina sauce, (I put lot's of veggies in this, zucchini, mushrooms, peppers, celery, etc to give it a meaty texture, eggplant parmansan, soups galore, lasagne(lo-cal)

Huge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!That is so great,congratulations and great work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is a tofu pasta. Try the refridgerated section of yourhealth food store. I get it at Sprouts MArket. iIt's like 20 calories a serving. It is a bit chewier then regular pasta but very good in soups

Sometimes I just have to say one day, one minute at a time. I tell myself I can do it for one minute,and then the next. You can do anything for a minute at a time.

You son can do it with you easily. I took my seven year old granddaughter with me. It made it easier for me because I focused on helping her be motivated which made me motivated. I didn't/don't carry water, but a ppiece of gum was so helpfl to keep away dry throat. Gum, sunglasses, pedometer, and a tissue are the things…

vinegar is great for removing odors. i always throw about a cup of it in my load of towels to remove stale odor

On week nine this week. I never thought I could run but couch25k is an amazing program. I was using a wheel chair in December if I had to walk too much so the difference it made in my life was tremendous. I listened to the beginning of each week as I would end the previous week and would be terrified that next week I would…
