Boredom Eating
Has anybody had good luck with overcoming boredom eating? I so far have not! The tips I've read seem easier said than done. Any success stories?

Girls with booties
Am I the only one who has an impossible time finding pants that fit these last couple of years? **** skinny jeans! A few years ago when low rise were the big thing I could fit in any pair of jeans. Now? Well, I'm all butt, thighs and calves so if the pants fit my lower section they're sure to be huge on my waist. And if…

Exercise, carbs & insomnia
I have chronic insomnia and parasomnia but over the decades I've found some tricks to help cope with it. Unfortunately my tricks aren't working lately and I'm sleeping a lot less and feeling exhausted. I believe it may be exercise related. Going though my diary I've noticed that I've been a little low on carbs. It isn't…

Why is prepared food so terrible?
I haven't been sleeping well so I'm exhausted and I have no food left in the house. Everything I can think of to go get is way high in calories and I'm way too tired to cook. Ugh. What do you guys do on days like this?

Should I switch it up?
I've been losing very slowly and having trouble eating low enough calories. I tend to have some winter depression problems and gain weight every winter. This year I'm on an anti-depressant and it's helping immensely, but I'm still finding it really hard to eat properly although I am exercising almost daily (some cardio,…

Menses question
In my admittedly lazy googling I found a lot of information about exercise causing lighter periods and also missed periods. But has anybody had it cause really really light but also more frequent periods? I'm having that happen and I think it's the exercise...

Cream/Creamer
Everybody is jumping on the "natural" bandwagon and they have this Natural Bliss creamer out now. It has just as many calories, but it's "natural". I don't get it, though. I used to just use half and half and I guess that's natural. But I trained myself to drink black coffee because it seemed like an easy way to cut…

Why am I so hungry?
I normally exercise after work but didn't do anything today, not even some light yoga. I've been ravenous all evening. Could it be because I didn't exercise?

Coffee + Potassium
What? What? I've been trying to figure out how to get enough potassium shoved into my diet and I just couldn't seem to do it. Today I randomly got the urge to log my morning coffee and what? It's high in potassium!

Inconsiderate coworkers wrecking my hard work
I have a few coworkers who are on the larger side and continually bring in *kitten* food, leave it on the counter in the kitchen and then send out an email telling us to help ourselves. Today there were two partial cakes from two different people. I have no problem avoiding or limiting my cake (or other nasty snack)…

Dehydration
I'm taking 2 medications that each cause dehydration and with both together it's horrible. I can't stand sweet drinks so Gatorade type stuff is out of the question. I have some electrolyte tablets but I have a hard time making myself take them because I already take a lot of pills. Does anybody have any other tips for…

Desk Job
I have a stressful and sedentary job. I share an office with someone and company policy requires us to keep our door open, sooooo I'd feel like a nerd doing obvious exercises at my desk. We have about 30+ employees and our office doesn't even have a break room so I'm stuck at my desk all day! Anyone have any ideas for mild…
