Fruit Kashi Bars Nuts Dried Apricots Favorite Low Carb Dinner before going vegan: Stuffed Bell Peppers (use cawliflower instead of rice and sautee ground hamburger, mushrooms, onions, spice and siracha) Breakfast: Prior to going Vegan - Plain yogurt with…

That's a tough one ! They say Abs are made in the kitchen - I think if you can be in a good range with your BMI because you are eating healthy, and work your whole body with strength training + Cardio, it will happen eventually !

We are reading ingredients in absolutely EVERYTHING we consume now... Its much tougher finding products without animal byproducts + I have been Gluten Free for 5 years now, double challenge but we are succeeding!

Love Forks Over Knives and Been all over Pinterest Recently ... I am finding I am going over my carbs every day :/ but I also find it hard to live on a 1200 calorie diet .. Partially because I'm having a hard time giving up my glass of wine every night ! Cant wait to try that Buffalo Cawliflower ! I was thinking of taking…

I feel as if I'm always hungry... I actually have to make myself drink water in between meals to wait longer to eat ! I used to eat for enjoyment along with hunger, but I also wasn't watching what I ate, or counting calories and the worst would be at 11pm. So I am continually battling late night snacking... I am still just…

Their is a certain euphoria that comes from satiating foods such as fat and sugar. I for one, have found that I top out in the happy department after a few months of watching my weight. Then I can sit in front of Netflix at 11pm and eat candy and chips and feel SO happy... Then as I pack on the weight and the unhappiness…

as a chiropractic technician of a 'corrective chiropractor' I would tell you to see a good chiro! Find one that is Corrective and will take xrays of your spine on site. Sciatica means that you have nerve interference. Once you can see your spine and see the problem, its just a combination of getting adjusted to remove the…

Feel free to add . I’m 1200 cal and open :) Still struggle to keep my carbs down !

Thank you so much for the encouragement and recipes MFP I feel great about this decision and will continue to learn !! ❤️

Ok my bad for not wording things properly . I , personally don’t think that we need to add oil to a pan while cooking . My body seems to be well fuelled deriving oils from food and I prefer to skip the extra calories .
-
Why can we not obtain the oils we need from dark leafy vegetables, eggs, nuts , whole grain foods ?
-
.

Skip the oil ! Our bodies don't need it. For most foods, cooking with water or baking works just as well. Ie. Chicken breast - season and put balsamic vinegar on them - pop in the oven

Your in the right place! We all struggle in different areas. For me I have an addiction to refined sugar - yo yo dieter - late night snacker. Up and down with weight gain since highschool. I find the forums on here helpful as well as having MFP friends that have open diaries. Feel free to add me :)

Me 2 LNS 1 The battle is on !

We substitute cawliflower for rice ALL THE TIME for our stuffed peppers! Amazing, still filling and not as heavy. Fast carbs! I believe no matter what you do, it WILL be mushy - especially in a crockpot where its steaming for a length of time, don't sweat it, go with the flow ... otherwise, maybe stick it in whatever your…

I wish this would work for me ! I am hungry ALL the time! I usually have yogurt and almonds for breakfast around 9 or 10 and then two hours later a piece of fruit and then lunch around 230-3 and then a late dinner... even with the late dinner at 8 or 9 at night, I still want to snack around 11/12 ... Sugar addiction...…

I am that person that is told that I don't have to lose weight, but that's because all they see is a 5'2 frame smartly clothed hiding the body fat I have - which would shock people. Today one of my patients poked my belly and said 'bun in the oven?' I replied 'no, my husband and I are just getting fat together.' LOL I…

This sounds familiar... Last year I was in a bad habit of getting up at 3am and eating... something small, but still - eating at a bad hour - my mind was convinced that I couldn't go back to sleep with a hungry tummy. It took a serious weight loss program and 18 pounds off to reset my brain. Last night I failed ! I managed…

This IS my story !

cucumbers are great when soaked in vinegar - sometimes I even add salt ! Bell peppers are easy on their own, if you like dipping in dressings, walden farms (found at walmart) has a line of products that are sugar free - just don't go crazy, and you have to be ok with the taste of sucralose ... HUMMUS is a great way to…

Agreed ! The more the merrier :) I just re started this journey

Does eating jalapeno poppers and chicken wings on sunday fit me into the right category also... I drink wine every night ! :D

I'm in the same boat but 15 pounds and 15 pounds of fat is a HUGE difference in clothing... everything is tight - most frustrating? My pants rolling down. I'm fed up and so I returned to MFP - good first step ! Next step - identify your main issues, triggers and how you sabotage yourself . When it comes down to it, we need…

I bought a used heart rate monitor off ebay - its been wonderful as it comes with the watch that tracks everything and the band that you wear against your chest

Thank you everyone for your encouragement ! You have no idea how much it helps to have this support, even though we don't know eachother ! Last night I was able to AVOID snacking for the first time ! I also took the advice from 'nowine4me' and went to bed two hours earlier than normal - cutting back my tv series to only…
