  • Yes. Weigh Everything. And it's really hard to weigh fast-food so I'd minimize that as much as possible.
  • science says this isn't possible unless there is something wrong with your body. for your wellness check did they run a thyroid test?

  • Disclaimer: I'm not a nutritionist. That being said this has been of particular interest to me as well due to my height and so I have looked into it quite a bit. Where the 1200 number comes from is because it becomes extremely difficult to get all of the nutrients needed on anything less than an intake of 1200 calories a…

  • I recommend checking out the Post Punk Kitchen's website www.theppk.com. Her site has tons of amazing vegan recipes. I also like this blog www.ohsheglows.com and Jamie Oliver has a vegetarian and vegan section on his site www.jamieoliver.com.
  • Somewhat unhealthy vegetarian transitioning to healthy vegan here. I've been losing weight by counting calories the last couple months and would be happy to offer support / share recipes / etc. All likeminded peeps feel free to friend me. :)

I was always athletic growing up so I never paid attention to what I ate or how much of it because I didn't need to, I was healthy and in great shape by default. As I got…
  • I've been a vegetarian since I was a teenager for ethical reasons. Recently went vegan, again for ethical reasons. I'd be happy to make a new MFP friend. :)
  • Awesome!! Thank you for the inspiration!
  • As someone who has both anxiety and depression, and is on daily medication for them, my experience is that eating very little (or nothing) increases anxiety and depression. I don't know if this is because the meds don't absorb right or because the lack of nutrition exacerbates the issues, but for what it's worth, I would…
  • Thank you so much for sharing this. I was starting to feel depressed because I'm not losing as quickly as I had hoped and this put it all in perspective for me (it takes time and dedication). I am feeling so inspired now!!! Thank You and CONGRATULATIONS!!!
