For those of you who have a hard time with breakfast...
I found my new favorite breakfast meal! Special K Protein Plus. It's not at all what I expected it to be. It tastes like the flakes from Raisin Bran, just less sweet. Anyway, I do 3/4 a cup of that, then I do 2/3 a cup of Cascadian Farms Organic Honey and Oats Granola and mix that in so it flavors it up a little bit (I…

Fruit and Tree Nut Allergy
As some of you already know from my other posts, I have, what I think to be, an apple allergy, as well as some other fruits including strawberries and possibly blueberries. I can eat applesauce, and juice, just not apples. Even without the peel. I also cannot eat almonds, walnuts and pistachios. When I eat any of these, my…

Daily Fiber
How much fiber should you consume on a daily basis? I NEVER eat fiber, and I just had those Arnold Sandwich thins.. the whole wheat kind that has about 6g of fiber in it, and my stomach is in knots right now, I feel sick.

Am I Eating Right?
In the morning, I have a Trix yogurt cup and a Quaker's Chocolate Rice Cake with less than a tbsp of Jif Peanut Butter on it. I usually won't have a snack between breakfast and lunch, and when I do it's maybe like a handful of Whole Grain Goldfish or a few Original Triscuits. For lunch, I'll either have a cup of Macaroni…

You Guys are WONDERFUL!!! =D
With all the help you've all given me, you helped me make my first grocery shopping trip for buying healthy foods THAT much easier. Here's what I got: Arnold Whole Wheat Sandwich Thins (just had a sandwich.. and OMG I LOVE THEM! I HATE regular bread, and whole wheat/grain rolls have too much to them for me.. so these were…

Special K Challenge
Has anyone ever done it? I'm getting bored with my breakfasts and I'm not a fan of sandwiches for lunch, so I'd like to try it. My boyfriend says I'll get bored eating it for breakfast and lunch, but the way I think of it, it's only 2 freaking weeks! I think I can do it, I'll just change it up everyday by putting different…

How do you know you're doing it right?
As some of you already know, I started MFP again a few days ago. I'm doing great with keeping within my calories, although I haven't been seriously keeping track of them.. but I know I'm not going over because I look at labels of everything I eat. Anyway, I started going to the gym when I started this again (finally…

I started again today, and this is what I look like.
I've debated whether or not to post my gross-ness on here, but you know what, it's time to face it.. I'm considered obese for my age (20.. almost 21) and I need to get my *kitten* into gear. I'm not going to be ashamed of how I look, even though it's a killer on my self-esteem, but I'm going to show you all how I look…

Help!
I did MFP a long time ago, and just kind of got busy and forgot about it. I'm trying to lose up to 15 pounds (starting small) by the time I go to Florida, May 23. I was just wondering if anyone had any useful tips? My boyfriend and I made an agreement that if I lose the weight before we go, he'll bring me to Disney AND pay…

Acai?
Does this stuff really work? Anyone tried it? I don't think I would ever use a diet supplement, but I was just wondering. Thanks.

Cardio
I'm new to the exercise scene, so I was wondering if you had any cardio tips for me. The areas I want to target are my love handles, stomach, hips, butt, and thighs. Those are the areas where I am the largest. Please tell me how long I should do what for, and how many calories I should be burning. I'm totally new to it, so…

Question
Did all of you on here lose your weight by following this website? What other tips would you give me if that is what I plan on doing. I'm 20 years old and my boss said I'll probably lose the weight fast because I'm young, but I want to go about this the healthy way.:heart:

Hi I'm New
Hi there, I'm Kasey and I'm 20 years old. I just signed up here, and decided it's finally time to do something about my unhealthy weight. I've been heavy for over a year now and I'm sick of looking at myself like this. I weigh 176 pounds and my short-term goal is 150. I haven't tried counting calories before, but have done…

Tips?
I just started doing this. I have never counted calories before, so it's going to be a struggle. Any advice for me starting out. I want to lose 20 pounds. And I currently weigh 176. I'm 20 years old and very unhappy with my image.
