How do you change meal descriptions in diary?
I noticed one person's diary had times listed instead of breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack. She had something like 9 AM to noon,, noon to 3PM and so on. How do you do that? I need mine to say something other than breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack.

Exercise DVD for someone who is VERY overweight..
Can anyone recommend a DVD that will not be too intense for a person who is 125# overweight? I hear everyone talking about that 30 day shcred, but the reviews I have read make it sound like it would not work for a beginner. Any suggestions?

Does spaghetti squash taste like pasta?
Do you actually put spaghetti sauce on it? I want to try this, but I hate to spend the time and $ on something and not like it. I just wanted to ask those of you who have actually tried it--Did you really feel like you were eating pasta? Thanks! :smile:

Does this count as "dairy"?
I use 2% Kraft cheese slices. On the package is says "processed cheese food". Is it really cheese? Can I count it as a dairy serving? :ohwell:

about salad dressings....
What do you use? I have been using Kraft Fat Free Italian or Kraft Fat Free Catalina. Both have too much sodium and the Catalina has too much sugar. Ugh. What do you use???

Anyone else do this??
I have not lost any weight in a couple of months, I have not really been trying. I have almost no motivation. Ugh. THat is exactly what my brain says every time I think about making good healthy food choices. I had done so well, but I have really fallen off the wagon. Here is my question.....Does anyone else still cruise…

IMO, smooth peanut butter is just a waste of calories.

I am so tired of having odd socks when I do laundry! Where do they go? Do they evaporate into thin air? Do they dissolve in the wash water? I mean really...where the heck do they go???? :grumble: :huh: :frown:

alternative oils..........
What kind of oil do you use? I have always just used vegetable oil or more recently olive oil. I am seeing lots of posts about coconut oil. Do you use it? Why? Does it have a taste? I read one post that said the person gagged at the taste of coconut oil. Thoughts? Are there other alternative types of oils?

Do you ever get tired of logging your food?
Anyone else ever wish they could just make healthy choices and not log everything in? Has anyone ever tried it? I know it is helpful to keep track, but it also a pain! I am interested in hearing from people who have actually tried losing weight WITHOUT logging. Thoughts from you guys? :smile:

Would like to hear from folks doing low carb............
I know all of the arguments and I am not really interested in debating the pros and cons of a low carb plan. I want to RESPECTFULLY say "Please do not preach a sermon to me about the evils of low carb plans". That being said, are there any of you out there who are doing low carb and love it??? If so, can I please hear from…

Question about your experience with Android App
If you use the Android app, have you noticed that the foods selection list does not have everything that is in the list you use online? Like yesterday, I needed to list an Arnold Sandwich Thin (which I use frequently and is in my recent foods list online) but it was not listed anywhere in the frequent foods list on the app…

How long?
I had a bad weekend of poor self control. Binged for the first time since the beginning of the year. When I weighed tis morning, the scale was WAY up. I entered my weight and had to watch my ticker go from 21 pounds lost to 15 pounds lost. :brokenheart: How long do you think it will take to get back to where I was?? I know…

Quinoa question....
I have been reading about quinoa. I LOVE white rice and have been thinking about quinoa as an alternative since it is so high in protein. Is quinoa considered a "whole grain"? I see that it has about the same calories as white rice (actually slightly more), but it does offer protein. I have tried to find the glycemic index…

Spaghetti squash---uhhh, no.
I fixed spaghetti squash and put pasta sauce over it. Soooo not working for me. :sick: Now I have this ton of the squash left. Any ideas what I can make with it other than just putting pasta sauce over it? I hate to waste it.

Protein powder???
I like to eat oatmeal but it doesnt have enough protein IMO. I have seen that people add protein powder. If you use it, what kind do you suggest? Does it taste like anything or does it add protein without changing the taste of the food?? Where do you buy it? Thanks!

question for the girls about "the girls"...
Where can I go to have someone actually FIT me for a bra? I am so tired of trying out bras and then buying them only to have them ride up in the back. I know it does this because I am pear shaped, but I keep thinking that there has to be a bra out there somewhere that will actually stay put! Any suggestions?? :huh:

My first NSV!
Today I realized that for the first time in a LOOOONG time my jeans are not rolling down at the waist band. I guess the fat roll that forced them down all the time is getting smaller! ROCK ON!! :glasses:
