  • I too have never been a breakfast eater. For the first month of this I had to make myself eat a Nutrigrain bar with water on my way to work. I have gradually added oatmeal, bagel w/fat free cream cheese and occasionally eggs on the weekend. Although I still don't get many calories in the am, I think it really has helped to…

  • I've started eating the Healthy Choice Cafe Steamers. They seem a little more like fresh food to me and the calories, fat, etc. seem to be lower. I'm also all about salad of any kind with some good soup.

  • Hi Toni! Hope this is just the thing that you need. It really helps me to think of it as a new way of life rather than a diet. I'm to the point now that I really look forward to my healthy meals and really enjoy them. You've just got to stay focused. Recording everything in the daily journal has been a huge help for me…

  • I gained most of my excess weight after 40 also. In part from emotional eating. I've been a single Mom with 2 children since the death of my husband in 1994 and ended a long term relationship at the wonderful age of 42. It's funny that when I told my doctor that I had never weighed this much in my life and didn't…
