Healthier does tend to cost more depending on what you're buying. I have trouble eating it all because it's just me and I end up throwing a lot away due to poor planning. The no budget thing can be a problem, because unless you're freezing everything as soon as you get home from the store, healthy means fresh, which means…

I've been having the same problem since March. Last summer I was able to lose 20 pounds (which I've since gained completely back) through lots and lots of exercise (700+ calories burned every day for months). My personal problem is that my ideal diet and activity level don't match my lifestyle. I need a ton of exercise. 20…

I haven't been at it long enough to see results, but I had a friend recently tell me if you pinch the mark, rolling the skin between your fingertips up and down the mark, for several minutes each night, they go away faster.

Monitoring the serving size is more important than just focusing strictly on healthy foods. I tend to snack all day on small things like cereal bars or shakes to the point that I'm eating all the time at work. But I sit at a desk all day, a more active job wouldn't allow me that luxury.

It's only a pound, body weight fluctuates a lot so you really shouldn't be worried about just one pound unless your weight just keeps going up. I'd advise you to keep with what the site tells you to eat in calories unless a doctor tells you otherwise, it's based on your weight and height and should be pretty accurate. Most…

Light popcorn doesn't have a whole lot of calories but it's pretty filling.

well, water has a tendency to pull on things, i'd rather it bunch a little than lose it somewhere in the deep end lol.

I'm with dogmeat and Nola. You don't have very much control over what you look like aside from plastic surgery, which is dangerous and expensive. So foremost you should be concerned with looking healthy. When you're eating right and getting the proper amount of exercise it doesn't just show in your physique, your skin and…

It's important to remember that it might not work with your body chemistry and finding something that does might be a bit trying. But since you know exactly why you're getting depressed that by itself should help.
