also if you are not eating enough fiber, eating enough heatlhy fats or drinking enough water it could be constipating you. that will put on the pounds and not you loose any, i found that out by personal experience. if you are drinking enough water are you peeing normally? if you are drinking the 64 ounces a day that this…

my mom made home grown brown beans and home grown fried potatos every night. We usually had pork chops, fried chicken or hamburger patties for meat. You had to grab very fast to get a piece of meat.

if you feel you need to eat the chips and salsa count out your 16 chips onto a plate first thing. you can order water with lemon instead of margaritas or soda. ask for a box at the beginning of your meal and box half of it up to eat for tomorrow. alot of mexican resturants offer fish as well as chicken dishes. i went to…

i never worked in a restrurant but did work as a cook in the military and in schools and nursing homes. is there any way you could bag you up some precut veggies or low fat trail mix or even dried cereal like granola or fruit and fiber or rasin nut bran or something and keep them in your purse or backpack for when you get…

i have neoropathy in both my feet and legs. i found that doing a few minutes of yoga every day is helping. i don't try to force the stretch so i don't make it to the ground or make any limber miracles. also if you have access to a community pool that heated some of those places might have some water aerobics classes.

i think it just depends on you. sometimes times i do and sometimes i don't. myself i have my calories set at 1300 but don't generally even eat the 1200 unless it's a weekend and my boyfriend is here. if you eat the exercise calories you should lose whatever you goal loss is for the week. if you don't you lose a little more.

wwwnutsonline.com has almond breeze milk for $2.99 each and it ships to your home. i noticed they had vanilla, chocolate and strawberry. i didn't look to see if they had sugar free and i didn't notice the shipping but it is an alternative to not getting it at the store.

if you have a local walwart you might check at the catalog desk to see if they can ship it site to store for you. you may have to order a case but since it doesn't have to be refridgerated until you open it it might be worth checking into.
