As in an -entire- pizza? Unless this is personal size, the problem is probably how much you are eating, rather than what you are eating, carbs or otherwise. Great advice from everyone here, but I didn't see this touched on-- definitely know what your calorie goal should be and stay within it! Rice is a great staple food,…

Controlling snacking is obviously important, but I recognize that I'm a night eater, and that's probably never going to change. I often budget my calories so that I have some left for the evening so I can eat! Knowing I can have a late night snack in my daily budget prevents me from going overboard. Using this, you can…

Meat for sure. Try some turkey slices, beef or chicken veggie stir fry, burgers/turkey burgers with a lettuce wrap instead of a bun. Edit: Oops, snacks. Turkey still, but I am gluten free and sometimes snack on pepperoni, ham, or peanut butter.

I don't really like sweet things for breakfast, either. My go-to, not including leftovers or carbs, is ham. I have a nice quality deli-style ham I like that i just pop in the microwave a bit. It's only 60 calories a serving, so you can get quite a bit if you want. It's a little unorthodox, but it doesn't get any easier and…

I actually just bought this exact pbutter for the first time a few weeks ago. Pretty darn good! I don't let myself eat it without measuring out an exact 2 TBSP serving. It covers a (chocolate) rice cake with a nice thick layer (and presumably a small piece of bread the same way). Just had that for breakfast. Try to limit…

Thank you and that is so awesome what you've done. I appreciate -everyone's- input but I was really hoping to hear something like this. I have been limiting myself a lot to prevent flares but maybe slowly building up stamina is what I really need to be doing. You are inspiring!!

This looks interesting! About 2 months ago, I tried a 7 day cleanse diet where I ate nothing but fresh fruit/veg, meat, and some yogurt. By the end of it I felt fantastic, but that diet is not sustainable for me, for affordability, ease (I hate cooking and I'm terrible at it), and feeling deprived. I have gone…

Wow, this really makes me feel better! I definitely plan to do what I can, when I can, but its really a relief seeing how well people have done without regular exercise routines.
