  • It makes sense that families and close friends would eat together. The main problem is that portion sizes have gotten out of control. It's also a lot easier for people who don't have much free time or have different interests because everyone has to eat, so they might as well eat together. In moderate defense of the social…

  • I've found it really difficult on some diet days to avoid sodium, especially because our high-sodium society has tricked our taste buds into finding salt so satisfying! If you can't find a good way to cut back, up your non-caffeinated, clear, low-sodium beverages: divide your weight in pounds by 2, and drink that many…

  • Maybe it's possible that you're building up muscle weight right now, especially if you've increased the amount of weight you're using while walking!
