Don't feel bad. I can't reach my "recommended" calories either. I've almost given up on logging my food because I know that i'm not reaching that level. I am sticking with the program though. It was suggested to me to eat higher calorie healthy food, so i will pass that along to you. I haven't logged anything in my diary,…

Thanks for the very encouraging words...i am going to continue and try to find foods less in sodium...also...i have not been tested for diabetes...although i did have gestational diabetes while pregnant with my son (he's 4 now). Going to keep my head held high and hope for the best....

I don't know of anyone in my family that has thyroid issues...but my daughter has some nodules on her thryoid....my energy is fair, but not the greatest...i get wore out really easily.

At this point i have been documenting everything. I'm not weighing any of my food, but i am measuring to the best of my ability. I am definately going to try my hardest to do the best I can....I didn't review my diary with my dr yet, i think right now it's getting my blood pressure under control and my back pain...(in near…

I opened my diary to you...and i did forget to state that my doctor put me on a water pill to because i am retaining quite a bit of fluid in my legs/ankles

I don't like to use the word can't, but i can't eat that much...i feel full all the time...almost to the point of feeling so stuffed that i don't want to eat supper. I am trying to be more active...walking, aerobics, etc...i get wore out so easily plus i have issues with my back/hips/knees that hold me back from doing high…

I am looking for friends as well. I fit in this category. I could use encouragement as well. I'm get very discouraged easily, but I am not giving up easily!. I am having a hard time getting my goal calories in...I completely feel stuffed. I just started this less than a week ago and I love it so far. I'm looking to lose 80…

I'm 36 and could use friends as well. I just started earlier this week. Any encouragement/advice is welcome!

I took in 880 calories..i'm going to try a different approach today...maybe instead of eating mostly vegetable for lunch, i'll eat a sandwich and for supper eat more vegetables..

My chart says i have over 1000 calories remaining...and i'm ready to go to bed....I will see what happens tomorrow...

It's not bad really....as long as they are sleeping...lol. 4 girls ( 2 14 year olds, and 2 10 year olds) and 2 boys (one 18 years old and 1 4 years old)...Be glad when school starts back...I love it and wouldn't change it.

I'm trying to use my vegatables as my lunch/snack...tomatoes, cucumber, etc...i used to be an off the wall eater....skip breakfast/lunch and get a snack in mid afternoon, and then eat supper. I have also been walking some too...which other than the burning in my hips (rather believe it's my muscles saying hey this is…

Amanda, I lost a lot of weight during my last pregnancy due to me having to be on a controlled diet. But i have gained it all back plus some. I just joined this program because i want it gone. My first step was making a decision and setting my goals. Feel free to add me as a friend and maybe together we can make it work. I…

Thank you for your encouragement!!! I sure do hope that this works for me... I am highly motivated at this point, just getting started and hoping to find the "right" way.
