I'm sorry. I am Canadian and I'm very blessed that diagnostics are covered by my government. Can he treat you for an ulcer? My GP suspected an ulcer and put me on Pantaloc for 8 weeks. It did take six months to get an appointment for a gastroscope. So basically they confirmed that my GP had done the right thing and the…

I had an ulcer as a result of taking advil over a long period of time for a sore back. It hurt every time I ate. And fresh food was worse. A salad would just about put me over the edge. It was fairly localized under my right rib cage (right near where my gallbladder used to be....). My gallbladder pain was different. It…

First of all take a deep breath. Coming from someone who has suffered from anxiety, I understand how you are feeling. How about making drinking water your new habit? Make some healthy snacks on Sunday to have ready for work the next week. Don't take any money with you if there are vending machines. Trying to focus on one…

Looking to lose around 70. Married, mother of two boys. Work full time. Looking for motivated friends as well.

Wow! Nice job:)

I am 37, almost too old for this thread:) I am a married mother of two boys. I work shift work at the hospital reprocessing medical equipment. I have been a member of MFP for a while. I fall off every now and again. Here to dust myself off and lose 70ish pounds. I have some MFP friends but my feed is almost dead. Would…

Couch to 5k app. Love it.

Measure your hips and waist now! I haven't lost any weight in almost two months but I've taken three inches off my waist. I had previously lost 21 pounds (put some back on after an injury). But people started noticing after about 15 pounds. I started noticing after about five pounds when my clothes weren't skin tight…

What if you were to cut it into one ounce pieces before you dried it? Then each piece would be 53 cals...... But maybe that's easier said than done....

Loved this book!

Nice explanation. Bump.

I wish they would have said how they came up with that number. The doctor only said he checked it three different ways. It would have been nice if he'd gone into it

I've been watching the Biggest Loser this season and one of the girls, Danni, had lost 95 pounds by last week but she had gained 19 pounds of muscle. They said they had never seen this before on the show and the Dr. checked the results three times. I'm no expert in this field either but I believe you can build muscle while…

I have it and I really like it. I do find it difficult as well but totally worth it. I've done both levels at once only two times.........killer.

Bump

Me too?? lol

^^ This! I find MFP over estimates calories burned. When I wear my polar it can be as much as 200 cals less that what the database says........1000 calories is a lot of exercise. Be careful, don't cut too low or it could compromise your milk production and that is what is most important right now:)

Starting week 4 tomorrow. I did week three in three days..........i just couldn't take a day off i was loving it so much!!! I have never been a runner and that is why i wanted to achieve this goal. Who knew i would fall in love with it? I turn on the app, crank my tunes and i get time to myself!! I am mentally prepared for…

Much needed today!! I've seen you on here a few times. i just started couch to five k last week. I'm starting to learn that not every day will be perfect but i have to keep going. Thank you! You are inspirational:)

Chipotle........blehch.......

Your stomach should be shrinking back to a normal size with no binging. If you give in, you'll stretch it all out again making you feel hungry more often:)

Agreed!! He is looking amazing for 82.

I guess i am talking more about hand guns. Hunting is a way of life in Canada too. My husband ownes several guns for hunting. It's just culture shock, I guess. Getting a permit for a hand gun in Canada is pretty involved. We aren't even really allowed to defend ourselves. There was a restaurant owner in Toronto who threw…

I thought the same thing. It's sounds so weird. And please, I"m not insulting Americans. But a Canadian wouldn't even have that option. We couldn't even buy pepper spray. The best we could do is go to an outdoors/camping store and buy some bear spray.

I have a polar FT4 and it gives me numbers way lower than MFP. Like you said, sometimes 100 cal.........and i work out hard. No standing around and dripping with sweat. I see a lot of people with crazy high exercise burns and i'm like, really???

Nice!!
