Thanksgiving is coming!!! Be thankful for your friends and family...enjoy them and your day and the food. Just eat smaller portions and get back to normal the next day...keep in mind it's not dieting its changing how you look at food and using it for energy and your health. And Thanksgiving is a gathering day of family…

Drink A full glass of water before you go. Ask for water when you get there. Eat salad first and then eat in moderation and enjoy. Just eat the one thing you want the most and savor it...slowly. enjoy the conversation and have fun. Skip the fries and the way bad stuff. Just remember you can take some home as left overs.…

I have since lost around 6 lbs in the last 2 weeks...trying. I am walking with a friend. logging my food journal every day. and I…

Me too...I am going to lose 100 lbs.

I am proud that I finally found this saving grace of a food journal and my life is changing for the better...It is working!! I am proud that I went to lunch today and preplanned my choices. I asked for a box for my leftovers,i had no refilled drink, i didn't go up to the buffet for another plateful,,,,i also did cardio…

I have been using this site for 2 weeks and have lost definitely 6 lbs or more. I journal my food the day of and the day after so I can see it for myself and preplan and edit. I am very careful, I go for walks to 30-75 mins. depending on day / weather...you can lose weight by just watching your calories for every 3500 cal.…

Hi. Explain to your wife that you want to be healthier for her and you need her support. Eat her meals but just watch your portions, or eat the meal and then take a nice family walk together. Take time and talk to each other and find ways to make the recipes work for you, not against you. Like meat for instance isn't bad…

I just ate out today. I preplanned what I was going to eat. I then felt secure and confident with my choices. I went to Hoss's and since I already walked the salad bar in my mind I was ready for it. I got my plate and only put a tablespoon of each thing I remembe r logging on to it., I had 1 small piece of garlic bread, I…

okay so say you want a big piece of cake....drink a big glass of water and wait 5 minutes., still want it...now eat 10 small carrots and wait 5 minutes..still well then wait another 10 minutes and then take the cake slice and only eat 1/2 of it. and with each bite put the fork down and ask yourself are you full yet? do you…

okay when I go shopping I have made my menu for the week already. I buy what I need. If I see something that looks good I get the nutrition information and get it the following week. Doing it right this time. I buy A bag of grapes great to eat in the car.,, bananas, apples, whole grain english muffins or bagels, peanut…

try a hard boiled egg, A slice of whole grain toast with a Tblsp. peanut butter, and some skim milk and 1/2 of a banana. It will keep you going til lunch. Don't use simple sugar carbs. use the stuff that sticks there and holds you. Your body knows what it needs give it to it and see what happens. Think whole grain....like…

Get the Tony Little videos they are fabulous. He had injured his back years ago and created a great work out for himself and others. I got those tapes and you can do whatever you can in each stage...and build up, there is a guide at the bottom of the screen for time for beginner, middle and advanced. They are awesome and…

I was just at a 75th Birthday party for my aunt...they had the full buffet going...and I was doing my planning of my plate in my head...encouraging myself..When someone said "Don't Blow it" I turned and looked at them and said "I can have anything here, but have to watch my portions.. I can take care of myself thank you.'…

I do not lie on my journal. I am noting everything...if I want to have a bite I have to write. I would only be cheating myself and I want this to work for me...I thought that mine wouldn't be seen...but even if it is..I hope to be an inspiration at some point...I am not perfect....doing this for me and my health.

oh I was thinking what "Can" you eat a container of that you wouldn't have to worry about calories... thinking the other way now...chips...that's why I don't keep them in the house....and Christmas sugar cutouts...my favorite.

ice pops...its just flavored water...and they taste good.:smile:
