What do you do to handle muscle pain?
Quick question - I have a desk job and have the knots and painful muscles that go with the territory. I get awful headaches from them. They go away if I'm off for a few days, and come back as soon as I go back to work. This morning I woke up with one feeling like it was stabbing me in the back. Is this something that is…

Need help! Ideas for 200 calorie small meals/snacks!
I'm going to try eating all throughout the day instead of blowing all of my calories at lunch and dinner and starving the rest of the day.

Any Ideas for Replacing Comfort Eating?
Much of my eating is done as a result of a comfort fix - kind of a food medication, or a "eating something will add to this moment" treat - for example, I'm having a bad day so I NEED to eat some ice cream, or I'm having a great day so I NEED to eat something good to celebrate.

Stuck in Dumpy Clothes
I'm stuck between clothes right now - my clothes that I was heavier in now look awful - instead of fitting nicely with a tailored look, they are baggy and dumpy. But I'm not thin enough yet to fit into the next lot of clothes that I have saved. I don't want to (and can't afford) to buy clothes for just an "in-between"…
