I try really really really hard not to eat snacks because they are such a weakness of mine. I wont even be hungry but bored and if I allow myself to eat a snack then all is lost.

I do this all the time. For me my weight has been all over the place for the past 2 years that I have a whole range of sizes in my closet. Here lately I have been picking a shirt, pants, or outfit that I want to fit in and make it my goal for the week and I always hang it where I can see it all the time. It really is a…

I would figure out how much time you actually sit in class compared to how much "light activity" you do in a day. For instance you sit in class for 8 hours but are only up walking around for 4 hours = I would then set it to sedintary (sp?)

7 is typically when I stop eating...I get really bad heartburn all night long if I dont. Anything after 7 is only water

Alot of my rewards for myself deal with clothes and shoes. My weight has been a roller coaster over the past 5 years so I have tons of all different size clothes in my closet. So, usually my goal is to fit into something that I havent been able to wear in a long time. Like for instance today, I have had my eye on a pair of…

Try a tablespoon of peanut butter, high in protein. Also, if you are just kinda bored and feel like you need to snack grab a ice cold bottle of water and drink the whole thing quickly. The water will naturally make you full without any calories

I used to weigh in once a week because I wasnt loosing. But now that I am loosing weight and increased my excerise I weigh myselft monday, wednesday, and friday.

I know this sounds weird but you might be drinking too much water and thats why you are thirsty. There is a small thershhold as to enough water and then too much water and it varies for every person. You might want try to cut your water in half or maybe try like 16 cups and see if this makes a difference. You very well…

Chips and salsa are me WEAKNESS!!! What I do is that I allow myslef to eat either 5-10 chips (depending on how my eating has been for the day) I then break up the chips (usually into about 3 or 4 bite size pieces) and then eat as much salsa as I want. Also, when ordering an entree I order the grilled chicken fajitas, and…

Stress can definitely cause heartburn. Also, depending on what foods you are eating, such as highly acidic foods (tomatoes, citrus fruits) can also cause them too. Water is a natural remedy for heartburn, it literally flushes out your stomach. So, immediately when you finish eating drink at least 8 ounces of water if not…

Good for you for owning up to it and setting a goal for yourself!!! I know how you feel but it is with a custard/ice cream store that I pass 2x daily, it really is hard. But since joining MFP I have refrained and I am loosing weight so it is great that you are taking a stand for yourself!
-
The best thing to do is just adjust how many servings you have....for instance it says that 1 cup of grapes is what MFP has and you only ate 1/2 cups of grapes then change the serving to 0.5 or half a serving and it will record accurately...hope this helps

I have the complete oposite. I dont EVER loose the weight in my boobs. When I was in high school about 5 years ago I was really sick and in the hospital and I got down to about 98 pounds and I was still a full D cup but yet I was wearing size 0-2 pants. So I figure they are going to stay the same forever lol and I just…

I do have a heart condition but it is congenital and does not ahve any thing to do with weight and I also have asthma but yet again…

Watermelon is a natural dierutic (sp?) also I just heard on a local news about healthy living that watermelon can actually help lower your top number of you blood pressure I would say eat it, and I dont think that it is fattening at all. Just dont eat a whole watermelon in one sitting and I think you should be ok lol!

Just recently read an article about good excerise for pregnancy and they said that yoga is a really good idea. I do know that sometimes they have special yoga classes just for pregnant women so you might want to check into that. The article said that it would really help stregthen your muscles in your back to help prevent…

It is really different for every person. What personally works for me is swimming. I have had 4 foot surgeries and I am limited as to what cardio that I can do. So, swimming has been my lifesaver, it really is a full body low impact excerise. You really just have to find what works best for you by trial and error. Just try…

I have super bad acid reflux/heartburn, and I can tell you that drinking more water is definitely not the cause of your heartburn. Actually water is a natural anti-acid because it flushes your stomach of all the acid. What you might be experiencing is kinda like "brain freeze" but in your esophagus. So you might try…

eat a tablespoon of peanut butter, that has helped my tons before (I am now allergic to peanuts and cant eat them) also eat it really slowly, that will help with the craving too....and WATER!!!! :D
