anyone else with IBS/IBD?
Hello, I was curious if anyone else on here has ibs or ibd. And how does this effect your weight loss and diet? I was diagnosed with crohns in July after dealing with debilitating arthritis for over 9 months. I had all the symptoms except weight loss. Im in remission as of last month, but I'm afraid all the fruits and…

4 lbs in one day?!
I weighed myself yesterday, and I weighed myself today on the same scale, there's a 4 lb difference. I've been under my calorie goal for the last few days, and last night I went to a death metal concert and moshed like crazy for 2 full hours. I drank a lot of water before, during, and after the concert, and a lot of water…

Should I up my activity level?
On my profile I have it set to "mild" as I am a vet assistant, and I thought "nurse" was an accurate comparison. But recently, I feel like I spend the majority of my day actively walking (walking dogs, going back and forth in the hospital) or lifting (carrying dogs, supplies)or doing intense cleaning (climbing ladders, or…

I HATE exercise
And always have. I dreaded gym class and sweating. For me, getting on the treadmill not only sucks, but it becomes an entire process (30 mins work out, 20 min shower, another 40 to make my hair not an afro) Also, I've found that if I do it at night, I cannot sleep, so it would have to happen BEFORE I go to work, (so…

I have found my late night snack!
1 cp fresh sliced strawberries 1 tbsp of sugar free chocolate syrup 4 tbsp of fat free whip cream (though I could do with less of this) Runs around 100 cals and wayyyy more satisfying than a 100 cal pack. This could easily replace sundaes for me =) edit: sorry it came out so big, but you get the idea

Is it true...
That eating too few calories will make you gain weight? It seemed like the only time I ever lost weight was when I was anorexic (<300 cals a day) Granted, I gained it all back fairly quickly. But, I still lost weight. I'm not saying I want to go back down that path, but I don't get how eating less will make you gain.…

I do so good in the mornings...
Then screw it up at night >_< I don't mean to, my sweet tooth just goes through the roof at night. And I usually go out with friends, which usually involves going to eat very unhealthy foods. I log throughout the day, but when I go out I'm like "Oh, I have 200 cals left, I can get something" only to get something way over…

Please tell me these hunger pains will stop
I just started this diet 3 days ago. I feel so hungry all the time. I'm eating TONS of fruits and veggies. (actually more food volume wise to when I was not dieting) But I feel hungry again like 20 minutes after I eat a whole cup of grapes or something. I still eat some carbs and lean protein, and I feel like I'm doing…
