I like Mio. It makes me drink more water.

I'm so envious of you. I can't ever get Lasik due to my constantly changing eyesight and dry eyes. LAME!

What kind of foods do you like and dislike? Any dietary restrictions?

What I've been doing is I've bought two different chewable "candy" vitamins for adults. One with vitamin D and calcium and the other is a general multivitamin. It's like eating a few pieces of candy and since they are vitamins, they are important for you. Try that! It's helped me a lot.

Why not have sugar? Have a frozen banana for dessert or a 100 calorie pack of cookies. Just fit it into your macros and you will be fine.

I think you forgot to include dinner.

Oh bugger, I was too slow. lol

Plus you don't have to ride roller coasters and have to worry about your glasses flying off! (Seriously, it's awesome) Now back to the subject!

Can you define "clean eating"? People tend to have different definitions of this.

This is important right here. Make sure to get contacts that fit your eyes well. You should be able to look up without them feeling loose or falling out. I've gotten sweat in my eye now and then but that would happen with my glasses too. :smile: With the right fitting contacts, they'll stay in just fine.

I like coconut quite a bit. Coconut flavored eggs though? Not so much. lol I'll have to check which kind of coconut oil I have.

Darn kids and their delicious food.

I think most of us are here because we like food (maybe a little too much!). Remember to eat what you like but keep it in moderation. Just because I'm on a diet doesn't mean I'll stop eating pizza and ice cream! :D

What kind of shakes are you looking for? Protein, veggie, fruit, all of the above?

I just did that recently and found out that people can view my fitbit path. It's a little embarrassing when someone asks you why you ran in circles for 30 minutes. lol Seriously though, whatever works!

Hi John. I'm Claire and I'm a food junkie too. :smile:

Wow, this is a great list.

I've been afraid to use coconut oil when frying because I don't want everything to taste like coconut. Don't the eggs taste weird with coconut flavoring?

I lost 12 pounds in the first two weeks of dieting. It's pretty normal. Just don't get used to it and get unmotivated when it slows down!

Can you eat just one and work out extra hard later? That's what I'd do.

It doesn't matter what you do with your life as long as you leave a sexy corpse.

I'm in California and we have the opposite problem. We are in a serious drought because of the heat and lack of rain and it's bad enough that we are looking into ways of transferring water here. GIMME YER SNOW.

RIP

I revoke the biased part, fair enough. I just think it's silly to feed someone a totally different diet and then be like, "ERMAHGERD THEY ARE SICK!" I've heard of people travelling to other countries like India and getting sick from the food there because they aren't used to it. It's not that the food is bad, it's just…

"The diet swap was also fairly drastic whereas we know that making small changes you can stick with long-term is far more effective to maintain a healthier lifestyle." The article itself is biased and a little ridiculous (of course if you feed rural African volunteers nothing but french fries and burgers they will get…

Why do you think it's that you don't have enough potassium? Not being sarcastic, it's a real question.

A few of them are right. Such as some people need more fiber, protein, and vitamin D in their diets. I lol'ed at the water though. DAMN WATER IS MAKING ME FAT.

Only if they are a cat.

Chew gum. In order to eat the candy, you would have to spit out a perfectly good piece of gum and who wants to do that?

Same here. I asked my bf of 4 years (we were even high school sweethearts back in the day) if he honestly felt I should lose weight. He said: "Yes. But only because you were a lot happier when you were thinner." He was right. When I gained weight, I was miserable and always felt like he was going to dump me because I was…
