you will not gain weight from that unless you're not exercising regularly, and you're not spreading your meals out to at least 5 meals per day. exercise and spread meals out to every 3 hours and your going to do great on that plan!

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that you're struggling with that. I agree with your highest self; you should stop. You don't need to be so hard on yourself. Life can be hard enough without it. You got this. Take care.

just get back on the wagon. increasing your exercise by crazy amounts will not make much difference, and may do you harm if you overdo it. drink a lot of water tomorrow, especially in the morning. right when you wake up, before you eat anything, drink at least 16 ounces of water without any interruption. eat a lot of FRESH…

I voted! Go girl! I hope she gets it!

It sucks that you don't have health insurance, but you can't skip a doctor on this one. Are there any free clinics in your area, or in a city that you can drive to? Stomach issues can be related to a wide variety of illnesses. Ulcers are caused by too much stomach acid and a bacterial infection (that may need treatment).…

quick and dirty: eggs (unless you're vegan) avoid soy (Its not good for women and not good in general - the hype is a myth): http://www.westonaprice.org/soy-alert/927-soy-alert-brochure.html Protein powders-- Raw unprocessed are the purest quality: http://www.warriorwhey.com/ & (vegan)…

It's so appealing to me that I write a blog about it! Our food culture is in grave danger and a lot of the weight problems are directly related to our current food system. It's worse than we all know. Low fat processed products are truly bad for you and can CAUSE weight gain. Its soo good for you to look into this! I…

Hi Mark - I have a blog about my nutritional program that has kept me in great condition (mentally and physically) since I started it. My blog is a diary but you'll find some good resources. You may find Slow Food, Clean Eating, The Weston Price Foundation and Michael Pollan's Food Rules useful resources for getting on…

welcome! Good luck on your weight loss and health journey. This is a great place to be for it!

It's not down the drain at all. I am doing clean eating too, and the best way to recover is drink LOTS of filtered (non municipal) water and get back on track as soon as possible. Your body will bounce back in a day or so, because you have been building resilience with clean eating. It's GREAT that your conscious about it!…

You are already very thin! I suppose it's all personal preference. I agree with other poster; please be careful! Instead of focusing solely on weight loss and your concerns about fat, consider looking into how body builders tone their body. There are some great body building websites that focus on high protein, strength…

it's not so late here in Cali, but sort of, and especially since I have a early morning Yoga class... so I really should get to sleep. I'm up late surfing forums in MFP, of course, because I just discovered how great this site is! But the main reason is that tomorrow is a holiday, so it feels like a weekend night. Have a…

Welcome! The folks here are downright sugary sweet; you may gain weight from the caloric intake of all the sweet support! Good luck!

how wonderful!!! congratulations!

I haven't tried Netflix yet, but I do find some GREAT full length classes on YouTube. Before I started Bikram at a school, I was doing daily yoga to this video ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcC8hZPwj6w ). It streams very well, and it' a pretty good morning workout. There are other, more challenging, classes from the…

i just found out about chocolate bars called Chocoperfection. Some serious low carb dieters use them, but I've never tried them.

Have you been watching your carbohydrate, protein, fat ratios? Clean eating requires paying closer attention to these ratios, rather than calories. More protein than carbs is best, and very very healthy fats (no refined- cold pressed extra virgin only and some cannot be heated, like Olive OIl for instance). Sometimes the…

I agree with gangstagirl625. I LOVE LOVE the Biggest Loser Dessert Cookbook. It's really worth getting. It gives all the techniques and the calorie breakdowns and there's a ton of yummy stuff with regular ingredients from the grocery store. Plus lots of Biggest Loser tips and inspiration. My husband has 30 more lbs to…

I love your blog and your self exploration! Congratulations on all your hard work. Your outer, and inner, beauty is well deserved!

My husband and I were vegetarians and we went to see a nutritionist. She immediately took us off the vegetarian program and explained insulin intolerance, due to excessive carbohydrates, being the culprit for both of our weight issues and my health problems. All of my friends who became vegan gained excessive amount of…

You're inspirational! Congrats on your life change!
