Vegetarian lunches that don't need reheating
Lunches are always hard for me and with a diagnosis of sensory processing disorder, I can't handle the texture of meat, so I'm basically a vegetarian. And I'm absolutely stumped as to what to fix! I'm trying to eat low/no added sugar, so I obviously don't want peanut butter and jelly. I do eat carbs and ezekial bread.…

At parents' house in applachia - local diet woes and help?
I've recently jumped back on the band wagon of (attempting) healthy eating. However I'm also on a nearly two week long vacation to my parents house in applachia. The local diet isn't great (fresh fruits are hard to come by, most things are fried for flavor) and not only that but mom is the type to fill the house with snack…

Calcium
I know I need calcium. I know calcium is good for you. I also know I'm not getting enough of it. Is there any proof that calcium can help women loose weight quicker, and is there a way to get more low-cal calcium in my diet?

Healthy eating & execising during exams :(
I'm a college student and until recently I've been great with my lifestyle changes. I've exercised, lost weight, ate right-- everthing. But this weekend and next week is midterms for me and it's been a dieting disaster. I haven't had time to exercise, I go tooobg without eating at times and stuff myself at others. I'm…

So... I"m top heavy. (girl specific)
Aka, I have huge boobs. Even before I gained all my weight i had big boobs. When was at 115lb I had Ds to DDs. I'm 144 now and have DDs to DDDs. It makes it really hard to do any kind of exercise because they bounce so much. The sports bras that I get at walmart, k-mart etc. just aren't cutting it. Do you guys have any…

Upper Body Strength Excerises Please :)
I have no upper body strength. It's always been in my legs (and I have some darn good legs too), But I was radinga blog the other day that a girls with PCOS jump started her weight loss by upper body strength building and considering I lack that anyways, I figured it couldn't hurt. That now brings to question, what are…

Is carbonated water "bad"
I really like it ( no sodium, no additives, just water and carbonation), but i hear it makes your belly bloat like crazy. Any experience and/or thoughts on the matter?

Cysters -- what worked for you?
I see plenty of PCOS "support groups" but noone seems to have a thread on what worked to loose the weight and keep it off. Granted, I know I've slipped up in the past little bit when I was sick and all, but I can't seem to loose more than 5 pounds. Someone tell me, what worked? Do i really have to cut out all carbs? Is it…

Should you exercise if you're sick?
I have the flu/cold/something. I was wondering are you supposed to still exercise when you're sick? I'm also a college student, so part of me wants to sit here and do nothing to get as better as quickly as possible before exams and classes on Monday. Anyone have any experience with this? I certainly don't "feel" like…

I'm sad. I've drastically over ate today.
Well I suppose not drastically, but it's lunch and I've already went over my calorie limit. (right at it, more so). I'm sick with the flu/cold something and I've been reaching for whatever looks good and gives me comfort. Should I feel terribly guiltly? I'm having trouble loosing weight as is, so I feel like I'm a horrible…

Day One, Redo. Thoughts?
I've been using MFP off and on for sometime, but I always had trouble loosing weight even when I logged my calories, but I realized today that I will loose weight no matter what it takes. I'm tired of seeing *this* when I look in the mirror. I hate that my fat clothes became my normal clothes. Yesterday, I started adding…

Weight Loss with PCOS
I was diagnosed within the past two weeks, but I suspected it way before then. I never want children so the fertility isn't an issues, but the general feeling crappy, acne, hair, etc is killing me. What's the best way to loose weight as a cyster? It's not understood very well here. In fact 2 of the doctors had never heard…

Sabotaged by little brother.
First off I'm at college. I have a younger half-brother that is also at college. We live around 15 mins apart from each other. I live in the dorm still because my college pays for it and he lives in an apartment that his bio dad pays for. My brother is really clingy. Just now he called me wanting to go out to eat with him.…
