I splash lemon juice into my water to fight the hungries. For me, almonds are a deal breaker - they make me want to snack more and I can't stop at a reasonable number! Sometimes your body is telling you it needs more food too which is important to read and take note of long term so you don't slow your metabolism down. Good…

Thanks for your comment StaciMarie - I've never changed the batteries, I will do that! I have verified certain weights with my doctors scale and one at the gym and they were consistent so I hadn't thought the scale was wrong... but it is worth a try for sure! There seems to be surprisingly little true data on the meds - I…

OOOhhh, love St. John!!! I agree, every Canadian should have to visit the rock, and the red woods in BC, and so much else in between! Thanks for the pics!

2 scrambled eggs, sometimes I put them in a small whole wheat wrap. I prefer cooked on the stove but if you have a time crunch then scramble in a tall tupperware and nuke for around 1 minute.

Totally been there. For me, I had to fail for a while and deal with the consequences of my actions.... gaining 40 pounds in three months! I got back on track by relooking at what my goals were, why I wanted to do this in the first place and figure out if something was standing in my way which there was. I've done some…

Hi guys, I have been on here for a while and never looked to add friends but I think a good support system is a good idea. I am looking for someone to run ideas past, sometimes kick me in the butt or offer advice, and visa versa of course. I am 35. If you are looking for the same thing, add me! thanks kim

Hi Macy, Welcome to MFP, I find it a great way to log my food and exercise and I find it motivates me because I will see or not see the results based on my actions. My name is Kim, married mother of two, and I am from Canada. I have never added or looked for friends on here before, but I am thinking it might be good to…

Congrats on starting the journey. You might want to consider adding more fruit, vegetables and protein to your diet. You had a lot of carbs in your listing, and often granola bars aren't any better than a chocolate bar. Also, drink lots of water and be kind to yourself! There is nothing to be ashamed of, our strength comes…

Great idea! I am going to do 50 sit ups and 50 push ups in the morning and evening - girlie pushups mind you but maybe at the end of the 30 days they will be real ones!

Every few days (when I remember) I take benefibre with water. It actually tastes pretty good, and is helpful in the fibre department. An apple has about 4 grams and a pear has about 5 grams. I also cook with flax seed sometimes. Good luck!

Today I like my strength. I feel able to achieve today, and it doesn't happen all the time!

Oh, have I been there! When this happened to me, I started journalling my thoughts and feelings and writing down inspriational quotes that empowered me. This reduced my stress and changed my focus. I feel strong and accomplished after I work out, that's why I do it. I have to do it in the morning though, it makes me feel…
