My diary became private the day someone sent me a rude PM yelling at me that I was eating all the wrong foods and that french fries (which I have on occasion) aren't "diet foods". I didn't even know this person! What I eat is my business and if my eating plan is working for me then why is it anyone's business? I have a lot…

if you truly want low sodium soup I'd recommend you make it yourself. As for canned....My dad gets the healthy choice low sodium soups....he says they don't taste very good at first but you get used to them.

bump! so trying this!!

<That's our son Teddy.....he's a 4 month old white marked ferret.

I'm trying to post a pic and it's not working thru photobucket. as usual!

that's a good idea....may try that....

I have tried many kinds of natural PB but haven't liked any. I stick to regular old Skippy creamy PB. I have been eating it since I can remember. I don't have PB too often (2-3 times a month).

As of today I am going to (again) try to give up soda.....so far so good.....

I do the same thing as some other folks said. I break the meal down into parts and input those as best I can. Sometimes you can find calorie info on the shops websites.

I too am a night shift worker. I bought chocolate protein powder and mix it with milk and make a shake. Keeps me full for hours! I add one scoop of powder to 8 oz of milk in my shaker and give it a good shake. It's delicious!

I drink echinacea tea from Traditional Medicinals (you can buy it at the grocery store) and put some raw honey in it. Vitamin C seems to help me also when I'm feeling run down. They also make echinacea and vitamin c supplements you can take (I get them from the drug store).…

I had a veggie cheeseburger for dinner tonight! It was on a sourdough flat with mayo, ketchup and pickles! So YUMMY!!!! (I don't eat red meat anymore)

probably never the way i'm going....

Poor puppy! lol well I totally agree with you. there are some not-so-nice people on here who think they are always right. i give my opinions based on my medical knowledge (i've been in ems for 13 years) and someone always has something to say. i don't even bother to share anything anymore. or i will send the person a…

I love wearing thongs but wouldn't work out in them....I sweat too much!

while it's healing you are supposed to keep it clean and covered when exposed to clothing. You need to use bactine and cleanse with sterile salt water (not ocean water). I had mine done 15 years ago and have since taken it out. Am considering getting it re done. It will look really ugly for a few weeks while it is healing.…

yeah...not for me (I haven't owned a bathing suit in 10 years) but I applaud those who are brave enough to post (cause I know I'm not!) :)

From a medical standpoint this is very dangerous. If your stool gets impacted it can cause necrosis in your bowel. That will get you sent to the hospital and they will have to remove the impaction along with part of your bowel....or you would get sepsis and die You don't want to end up with a colostomy bag.....or die I'd…

bump! thanks!

I'm on 1540 a day. I have breakfast at 6am usually 300 calories. Then I go home from work (I work overnights) and sleep from 8am-4pm. Dinner is usually around 530pm....my biggest meal usually 800 calories. When I get to work at 10pm I usually have another meal which I call "snacks" to finish out the rest of my calories.

I was in a similar relationship with my ex husband ....we used to yell and scream at each other all the time. Then he hit me ONCE....that was enough...I kicked him out and divorced his stupid *kitten*. My current boyfriend is so loving and the complete opposite of my ex. Do yourself a favor....have respect for yourself and…

There are conflicting reports that soy causes fertility issues in women and all sorts of other things. I eat it on occasion and am healthy so far. http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=soybean-fertility-hormone-isoflavones-genistein http://www.vegsource.com/articles2/davis_soy_safe.htm…

Where is the love?

I was looking into getting protein powder too. Have been getting many different opinions on brands....

Medic on a construction site. I work nites and manage to control my calories by limiting the food I bring to work.

model!

You have to do what works for you otherwise you won't continue with the program. That's what I think anyway. :)

I just added a pic of my face yesterday...had my tattoo up before that. Does that annoy you? :D

I am going to try the running program on my own. I am asthmatic and I have been looking for a gradual program that will help me build my strength and endurance as well as my lung capacity. :)

As a medic I will give my my opinion based on the injuries I have seen from children not being in booster seats. I would definitely send the booster seat along with a letter to the teacher making it mandatory that he be placed in the booster seat in the car. (I personally have never heard of parents driving kids on field…
