Vegetable Digestion Issues?
Does anyone else feel like that when they eat their veggies (which are yummy) that their stomach almost cant handle it and it starts to hurt or make you nauseous? Granted I'm guilty of not always having them in my diet, when I do try to incorporate them in, I just feel sick. Will this feeling go away? How long will it…

Coffee Drinkers - How do you prepare your coffee at home to avoid places like Starbucks?
Just as the title says. It's so obvious that it's much healthier (and cheaper!) to make your own at home. And while I understand people can simply like it black, I'm more curious as to what other 'recipes' people have up their sleeves for this. Thanks!

Fluoxetine Weight Gain
I started Fluoxetine twice in my life. Both long term treatments for my depression. During the times I was not on the medication, my weight was normal and I didn't tend to substantially over-eat. During the times I have been on it, such as now, I am almost 20 pounds heavier and cravings are incredibly hard to control. Even…

Why does coffee cause me severe hunger pains?
It gets to the point where I feel like I'm gonna pass out and get dizzy like an hour or two after drinking coffee. I know almost everyone says stuff about coffee curbing their appetite, but it seems to be the opposite for me. I love coffee, it wakes me up and keeps me alert. But does this happen to anyone else? Or anyone…

Low Carb Makes me Dizzy...
While I haven't exactly stuck to a diet for too long, I did try doing the whole 'low carb' thing a while back, because everyone seemed so sure it was something healthy to do. Well, after trying to put up with it for two/three weeks, I finally have to give up that idea because it seemed that if I didn't have some sort of…

Request: Lower Body (butt/thighs/legs) for at home.
I'd love to hear some advice/routines that you guys personally use for working out your lower body. Being that I don't have access to exercise equipment for the time being, I was curious if you guys had some at home things I could try! Have at it :)

Protein
Having a hard time figuring out how to get my protein in without using a protein powder....I do love them, but they are fairly expensive and I don't know which ones are good ones :( I do realize I should just eat a lot of meat, but that's almost even more expensive! What do you guys do? What protein powders do you swear…

So, for all you smart eaters out there, how am I doing? what am i missing? is it good? is it bad? Let me know!! EDIT: Guys...I'm eating more than this...i…

Tracking - What do you keep a strict eye on?
Tracking - What do you keep a strict eye on in your 'diet'//healthy lifestyle? Calories? Certain number of carbs/fat/sodium/protein? Only organic? At least 'X' amount of this//No higher than 'X' amount of this? Nothing at all? All opinions welcome :)

Losing weight WITHOUT doing low carb
Anyone out there doing a diet//lifestyle//whatever you wanna call it without doing the low carb fab? I've been trying it and it just doesn't feel healthy to me.

Breakfast Calories?
Yes, most of us on here have a set amount of calories that we eat per day, but how much do you usually eat to start your day? I assume it would be a percentage and not a set number, so what would it be if mine is at 1200?
-
Sodium?
Does anyone watch their sodium intake? If so, why? (Just trying to educate myself.)

Is it beneficial to workout / run in the evening?
Currently, I don't do any sort of exercise, and I definitely know that I should. My question is whether or not it's helpful//healthy for me to do these in the evening. I have next to no energy in the morning...and soon I might have to be working fairly early as well. I find myself getting the motivation to run somewhere…
