  • Try a tostada - they're usually just a corn tortilla with a small amount of refried beans, lettuce, tomato, and guacamole. And because it's served open-faced, instead of wrapped together like a burrito, you can control how much of each item you eat.

  • If you have a coffee shop nearby, try stopping off for a nonfat latte or cappuccino. The calcium is great for you, and the coffee can be sipped throughout your class, so it keeps you more satisfied. Add to it a banana, some almonds, or a pack of peanut butter crackers and you're set. I think it's great that you're taking…

  • Fiber is GREAT at keeping me full for hours. I eat Nature Valley Double-Fiber bread on my sandwiches, a sprinkle of bran flakes in my oatmeal, and lots of sweet potatoes. The only down side? :ohwell: Certain body functions become more frequent :ohwell:

  • I am a teacher who needs LOTS of energy throughout the day. I'm also an ovo-lacto vegetarian, which means I eat no meat, but I do eat dairy and egg products. I would like to know if anyone has had success with eating smaller, energy-packed meals throughout the day. If so, what are some of your favorite meals? Any…

  • :flowerforyou: Think about everything you are missing out on if you focus solely on your weight. Oprah fluctuates tremendously, yet she is constantly working to improve her world. America Ferrera, Raven Symone, and Tyra Banks are all strong females who represent healthy bodies and healthy attitudes about themselves. If you…

  • Does anyone know where I can find real miso? I live in a pretty rural area, but I wonder if some of the larger chain stores carry it. Also, any good miso recipes for a vegetarian?

  • I read in Women's Day that nutritionists actually encourage their patients to "take a day off" from their dieting regimen. They suggest we have a day where to eat anything we want - trusting ourselves to indulge without going overboard. Yes, have a piece of cheesecake because it tastes good and you want it. But don't have…

  • Believe me, you are NOT alone! I have the same problem, and then I feel guilty for thinking so much about what I'm gonna eat. Anyway, I love sugar-free gum - Trident is the best. The flavor lasts a while, one piece is only 3.5 calories, and it keeps your mouth busy! :heart: :heart: :heart:

  • I just saw a tv spot for the Scripps National Spelling Bee, so it seemed appropriate to spell my favorite word: s-u-c-c-e-s-s! Coming back from an eating disorder, I am hoping to maintain the weight I have gained (slowly but surely, a total of 35 pounds). While my idea of success - gaining and maintaining - might be a…
