  • If you don't want to eat meat, just eat beans. They have the protein that you need to keep you full and none of the bad cholesteral. You can get the good cholesteral you need from eating nuts, seeds like peanuts, walnuts, pecans, soybeans. They do have lots of calories so go easy on them. You only need a couple of…
  • You don't have to eat every color every day. Just eat a variety of colors each day. Each color veggie and fruit has it's own good things it contributes to your health.
  • what I do is eat one of each color if possible each day. an example would be : breakfast: blueberries with yogurt (1 fruit and 1 dairy), add a tablespoon of chopped walnuts for healthy fats, whatever cereal you like - one with at least 3 grams of fiber for regularity lunch: banana (another fruit), celery with peanut butter…
  • Sorry . We do tend to get carried away when it comes to discussing nutrition. I hear what you say about just not eating. That would surely solve a lot of our problems. no more wasted time.....cooking doing dishes pleasing the rest of the family no more burned kitchens.....been there, done that almost burned up the husband.…
  • My doctor told me to just cut out sugar (as much as possible), white potatoes and white rice. This is the best way to begin to lose weight. I lost 20 lbs. just starting out by cuttting out these things. I was way into losing before I added exercise. So you're already way ahead of me. By the way, Atkins shakes are much…

  • Breakfast cereal with as much fiber as possible. Take the sugar amount in a serving and subtract the fiber amt. This will tell you how much sugar you are really eating in the cereal. The less the better. Throw in some blueberries or whatever fruit is cheaper and that you like. Do not get granola. It is a fattener. Low fat…
  • I love that cat!
  • You lucky duck to have this near you! My son lives in Houston. The next time we visit I might have to check this out.
  • I'm sorry to be so blunt but I'm really frightened for you. Please get out........................................
  • ONE MORE THING.....THESE KIND OF MEN KILL! GET OUT!
  • RUN AND DO IT NOW.....NOT TOMORROW! This man is dangerous! Anyone who cares for someone on any level is not this way. He needs to mature and I do mean NOW! He cannot continue to be a little boy trying to be a man. The two do not mesh! MEN DO NOT CHANGE....THEY ONLY GET WORSE WHEN THEY THINK THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH ANYTHING!…
  • WOW! This sounds great and I intend to try it as soon as I get off this site. I don't have any strawberry yogurt but since I do have strawberries and yogurt, I'll tweat it. Thanks.
  • I would not change my age. I'm 60 and glad to be that age. May sound crazy to younger people but it can definitely be cool.
  • Thanks, this does sound like Salmon Croquets but for tuna and with a twist. I love it.
  • Atkins shakes are much better as they only contain 160 or 170 calories and have 15 grams of protein. The protein keeps you full longer. The sugar content is a lot, lot lower than with SlimFast. I tried SlimFast and it just became a milkshake for me. What I like to do during the day is drink one Atkins shake for…
  • Oh I do try.....but diet pepsi is my vise..........so sad!
  • one more thing, if you look around for sites that are for diabetics trying to lose weight, you might just find a site that will measure what you need to help you with the diabetic part of your weight loss. You can always work two sites together. I do it.
  • WOW AND DOUBLE WOW! You have just done what most people do not have the fortitude to do. You have LITERALLY begun to save your own life! And from the standpoint of a mom with a 36 year old son, I can tell you that to the people who love you and worry about you, you have made yourself a hero to them. Your life from this…
  • no...I'm 60 and therefore have been around since sugar was almost the new thing. Seriously though, I've been around since all the sugar replacements have begun to be sold. I've never, ever had heartburn from any of them. Maybe it's just me. Or maybe you have a little something going on inside the opening to your stomach.…
  • I've tried the Slim Fast shakes before and landed up drinking them like milkshakes. They're delicious! 2 years ago when I went on a diet to keep from being diabetic I began with Atkins shakes. They're only 160 to 170 calories and 15 grams of protein. They keep me farely full and they're also delicous. I drank one per meal…
  • Hey, now this is a site I can go with although I'm officially 60 now. Advantages to being 60 are: 1. where I work I now am elligible to retire so I never have to apply for a job again. 2. many many free or near free things for older folks like me and the ole man (ha ha) 3. who cares ...for I know for sure I'll never try on…
  • I'm a tutor and one day after helping a second grade girl understand subtraction she said" Mrs., you're the best teacher in the world!" You know a child cuts you no slack, especially when it involves school work. She did me more good than I could have ever done her.:flowerforyou:
