Anyone taking iron supplements for anemia?
... And getting wicked constipation because of it? (TMI, I know, whatever) How are you dealing with it? Cause this is starting to get really annoying, but weighing the costs/benefits of NOT taking them versus continuing is just depressing.

Stopped logging for eight months...
And gained 15 pounds. Not necessarily because of not logging, but because of other life circumstances that left me curled up in bed eating anything I laid sight on for the better part of eight months. Cupcakes were my friends and after I'd eaten them I didn't feel any better, but didn't care and went back to bed. Anyway,…

I need to confess my love...
For All Bran Buds. That is all. Tastes good with and without milk. Tastes good with fruit. Tastes good with peanut butter. Tastes good. Yep.

Protein Powder Help
I'm looking for a protein powder that's low lactose and doesn't contain acesulfame-k, acesulfmae potassium, or sucralose. Stevia and inulin root are fine, just not the more artificial sweeteners. The only one I've found so far is Vega. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this. Of particular interest to me is…

jeans help - who wears straight leg jeans?
I need new jeans. That fit. I live in American eagle straight leg jeans, but you can only order them online now, but I need to try them on to make sure they fit now since obviously my jeans are too big in an awkward way. Anyway, what's everyone's favorite store/brand of straight leg jeans?

This week's lesson
I'm lactose intolerant and I eat a diet that is low fat. This week I learned that just because something is lactose-free doesn't mean you should eat it. In fact, I probably would have been better off just eating the regular version. And read your ingredients labels, guys. Especially if it's a specialty item, because the…

Weird question for you guys...

>45 lb difference, pics to prove it
I've been hearing a lot about how much I've changed in the past week, so I thought I'd post pictures. I don't know what I weigh in this first pic... It's from four years ago, probably not my heaviest, but it definitely shows how heavy I was. Probably around 215-220 lbs I'd guess. This was taken two days ago, at 154 lbs.

Canned tuna - what do I do with it?
I grew up hating canned tuna, but I bought a can of it (dill oil infused or something, the brand is ocean I think, 100 calories for the can) because I thought I'd like to try it... Taste buds change, right? But I have no idea what to do with it. Put it on crackers or something? Recipes? Ideas? Help!
