I want to buy some of those test strips to be able to check that i am in / maintaining ketosis. Does any one here use them, find them helpful, and / or able to recommend a…

I JUST LIKE EATING THINGS TOO MUCH!!!
That's it...no special emotions connected here. Generally try to eat healthy stuff. Obsessed with sandwiches. Need help sticking to a plan!! It seems every day I just have to 'start over' because the previous day I'm always just so hungry I can't stop eating. This is just a total fail, so I'm just venting I guess. Who…

Frustrations!!
I just don't understand! :c for the last couple weeks I switched back to only all natural foods, lots of organic fruits/vegs, no packaged garbage or sodas, 90% vegetarian again, thinking positive thoughts, going for walks, and I lost 5 pounds over that time...I used to be very healthy then I had a two year-ish struggle…

Night Work Outs?
I have a jacked up sleep schedule...merely because...? I am a night person? I don't know. I try to get to bed at a normal hour [as I know sleep/good sleep is important for weight loss] But lately I am the most awake / motivated in the middle of the night. And it keeps happening that I will want to go to bed around 11 or 12…

Help me win an art contest?
Hey since you are all so awesome at helping myself and others with fitness and encouragement...I'm just throwing this out there to anyone who has a minute to help me try and win an art contest!

shoes
Right now, all I have are some ill-fitting rocket dog gym shoes...I have really wide, stubby feet, and I also have neuritis on the top of my foot. So I guess I'm just making a post to ask what are some good walking / jogging shoe suggestions for people with wide feet, and possibly don't have too much covering / elastic /…

late night work out
I really felt the need to exercise...I just got done with about an hour long work out of various things, but I don't know if I should count it for Monday's tracking or Tuesdays? Any thoughts?

intro / pix
Hey, I'm just writing because I need some more encouragement...again...I had a total fatty day [I've been trying this now for about 3 weeks]. 3 years ago I lost about 25 lbs but since then I have gained back 30 or so pounds. I wasn't even going to log in and track my food today because I know it will end badly, and I…

a little bit of psychology that I found to be a BIG help
Hey all. When I decided to take my usage of this site and my attempts to get in shape seriously, my friend linked me to a message board for weight loss support. I was going to post right away about how THIS TIME I am totally going to START TOMORROW and finally do it! Then, before I made my post, I noticed they shared this…

logging fruits and vegetables: a quandry
Here is something that I wonder about: when I used to do Weight Watchers, all fruits and vegetables counted as ZERO towards one's points for the day, as an initiative to eat more of them and work in healthier foods. If I had a day where I'd used up all my points but was still hungry, I'd eat some fruit or a salad with no…

No Results = disappointment
I have been at this for at least 3 weeks now, some days have been not so perfect, but I at least have been trying. Eating better/less and started exercising again...and yet, I HAVE GAINED a pound and a half! Not lost ANYthing! And I don't believe the old "oh, it's just muscle" excuse...a pound of anything is still a pound,…
