You're awesome. Thank you.

Hi Tammy! Welcome to MFP. The community here is really wonderful, as are the trackers. :)

Thank you! Haha, same here. I'm lucky if I just replace any oil with apple sauce...... But homemade wheat bread, that would be healthy! (If I ever bought whole wheat flour, lol.)

Spreyton, thanks for the support in this. I appreciate it. I do think it's best for everyone to experiment with their diet at one point or another. Also, I myself might have an autoimmune problem... I have several symptoms, but doctors aren't sure what's going on yet. Pionee, I'll DEFINITELY look into magnesium supplements…

I've tried doing that, and I just find I end up waiting ALL day obsessing over the chocolate. '_' So thanks, but no thanks. Besides, I want to try it out for a year. I never said I'd give it up entirely.

Thanks everyone for your thoughtful replies! Maggie, I really recommend just going for it or tapering off, even. I feel a little better today, though admittedly, my mood is worse. The physical symptoms are better though! It might've been the caffeine in it, but I'm not sure. I almost think it was sugar content, a sudden…

Thanks!! Everyone's been so thoughtful in their answers, and really, its good to know it's doable. I think, just from seeing the posts, it's easy to tell there are a couple ways to handle the situation. I'm not sure what will work for me yet, but I know something will. I'm glad that others benefited from this post.

Thank you everyone for replying. This is a really supportive community, and I was actually worried I'd get flack for this question. I'm glad it was taken seriously, because I needed the advice. TheLadyBane, I ordered the book you recommended just now. I hope it has something to help enlighten me on my present situation.…

CONGRATULATIONS! :D That's fantastic.

Thanks everyone-- seriously. This community is soooo great. What was I even thinking not being here to begin with, lol? :o Zombie run app????? ....And off to the app store I go. Thankyouthankyouthankyou.

Honestly, I can really relate to this. I don't yet listen to music while running because I'm building up a playlist, but I definitely do the distance game bit. It helps soooooo very much. The little things show you exactly what you have in you, and you make so much sense... So very very much sense. It's not cheesy at all.…

Diet cake? ....Yeah let's be friends, lol! :) Where did you find that recipe? My friends tell me I'm more determined than I have been, but I don't think I'm necessarily in robot mode, haha. Thank you so much for the advice. I'll try to remember that when I'm facing something where it's called for. (Maybe next time I have a…

Thank you, sincerely, to both of you. Sometimes it's good to know I'm not alone. I should probably stop worrying so much about progress and just know that what I'm currently doing is great for my body.... I get so wrapped up in "not seeing results fast enough." But it's not an overnight process at all. I have non-scale…

My brain can't process how amazing your month was.

I'm so glad I have people who can relate. I'll take it easy during this terrible time, but I still want to -attempt- to be active.... * Sigh. * Why is the uterus so evil?

I also get low Vitamin D, but I was balanced out with the 50kIU pills. I really should begin taking supplements again. Wouldn't hurt.

Indeed they have, but not during actual menstruation. However, because my extreme fatigue begins before any bleeding, I'm skeptical it's anemia. I'll speak to my doctor about testing during my actual period.

Hello! I'm Hayley, and I'm working on losing 80 lbs! :) Feel free to add me if you'd like.

Thank you everyone. I really mean it. All of your posts were encouraging, and I appreciate the community. ^^ Please feel free to add me.
