Wacky sodium amount for beans?
My hubby and I are on a low sodium diet because he was recently diagnosed with congestive heart failure. The sodium in pinto beans made from dry should be close to none according to a google search. I can't seem to find beans with less than like 100 mg per serving in the database. Even for homemade plain. Am I missing…

I set my calories at 3,000. Anyone else have it high, and how's it going?
I googled how many calories for morbidly obese to lose weight and the website gave me 3,300 for my weight. So I'm going to see how it works. So far so good. I lost a pound yesterday ( no biggie I know). This app wants to give everyone over a certain weight like 2100 calories. If the calorie needs for someone 130lbs is…

I'm trying to remember from my previous try if saying yes means they take away my calories or if that happens automatically. Frankly, if I'm losing weight, I'm not too excited about having fewer calories just yet.

Giving up diet soda. So hard!
i gave up sweets and diet soda and it's the diet soda that I miss so badly! I was drinking soda that didn't even have caffeine, but I apparently have quite an addiction. I don't like spring water and I'm sick of water. What am I going to drink with pizza? Any ideas?

Losing too quickly?
I'm at an all time high of 327 lbs. Back in 2007 I lost 80 lbs and kept it off for 3 years. Medications I had to take made me gain back and then some. Last year I lost some weight using my fitness pal, but I gave up and gained it back. Any time I have counted calories I lose weight quickly for quite a long time (when I…
