Whole foods friends wanted :)
Not saying that I don't respect everyone's decision to eat whatever food they want, but I just want to find more myfitnesspal friends that are trying to eat mostly vegetables, fruits, and whole grains. I've been in love with my new nutritional lifestyle and want to meet more people out there that share a similar goal. Not…

Down 15 pounds but don't feel like it shows
I am 5'9 and been changing my eating and exercise lifestyle completely. I have lost 15 pounds but I feel like it doesn't really show. My current weight is still in the 200's. I'm trying not to let it keep me down but it is disappointing not to see a super change physically. Does this happen to anyone else?

NO gimmicks or diet pills and I'm losing weight?! what? 0_o
So I don't know if this is technically a success story but thought this might be the right area to post this. I have been a crazy yo yo dieter in the past. I've done ever fad and every diet craze there was. I even did the HCG diet where you start off with 500 calories a day for a few weeks and take the expensive supplement…

Juice substitute (really it is just tea lol)
So I used to be a HUGE juice drinker! I would love buying orange, grape, v8splash, really any juice type drink and would drink a big bottle within sometimes 2 days. I have been doing the water thing but knew I wanted my slightly sweet drink in there. Usually, I tend to be a seasonal drinker (like drinking cold things in…

Bad scale what is a good one?
I have a scale that was around $20 but it is terrible. I stand on it once and it will tell me one number, I get off of it, stand back on it and the number changes completely. Lately I have just been averaging the number (pick the number that comes up the most). This is a hassle and I would like to get a good quality…

Does everyday have to be intense?
Today I worked out this morning for about a half an hour doing squats and various different weight exercises just in my apartment. I didn't go to the gym today and do cardio like I try to do. I was wondering if I can still count it as having a workout today even though it wasn't anything huge?

Greek Yogurt
Lately I've been totally loving Greek yogurt! It is so delicious and I hear that it is quite versatile. Today I made a homemade version of ranch dip with it and it was delicious!!!! Of course I still measured it out and didn't go crazy with it. I was wondering if there are other recipes anyone knows of that incorporate…

Dedicated to NO MORE yo-yo dieting!!!
My name is Heather and for all of my life it has felt like I have been on some kind of diet. I have gone through times where I lose weight, but then I seem to gain it back and then some. I have dealt with depression and boredom eating which have both contributed to my ever increasing size. After some serious self…
