Is there anything healthy I can eat?
I'm a picky eater. I used to eat wraps for lunches, but now I can't eat them (I tend to eat foods daily until I physically can't eat them anymore). So now I need something new to eat for lunches.

BMI?

I want to make sure I stay a healthy weight, however I know some people use BMI and others claim it is "outdated, horrible, yaddy yaddy yada". So... What should one weigh?

How do I make this a lifestyle?
We all know that making a healthy lifestyle and sticking with it is the key to weight loss success in the long run. But how does one do it? I'm one of those people who once I lose the weight goes back to binging sweets again. I want to enjoy life and food but also not gain... Which is a struggle.

Filling food?
I finally ate healthy today and was under my calorie count. But it reminded me of why I don't eat like this- I do get quite hungry. Any filling, low calorie food ideas?

I feel stuck... Deep down I want to get healthy and fit so badly. But something in me just doesn't want to even bother trying. I feel so sad and hopeless about it all. What makes you motivated to count calories and exercise?

How do you keep motivated if you don't have a scale?
Hi there! I'm looking to lose a few pounds and get back to my old weight, however I no longer have a scale. It's a lot harder to see if I'm making progress, and a lot harder to stay motivated. Any tips on how to keep on track, even when you don't know how much you are losing?

What are some good substitutes for sugary snacks?
Hi all, I am probably one of the world's pickiest eaters, which makes it hard to eat healthy because nothing tastes good to me! I am always craving sweets.
