USDA Bottom round swiss? Help??
I've got about 6oz I plan on greedily eating all for myself for breakfast, along with some other things as well, but I'm having a super hard time actually finding it on here. There's only one choice if I type that exact phrase in, and there are 0 confirmations for it. I'm new to eating meat (former 6 year vegetarian) so…

To combat sodium...
Drinking extra water? My weigh in is tomorrow, and I'm making hot dogs for the husband. If I have two, I'll be -673 for my sodium. I'll go without eating them if I have to, but I am pretty hungry and I do need to eat a decent bit of calories to get my numbers in.

Apartment situation - help!!
My husband and I just moved into a new apartment on the 1st. Awesome place, awesome price. We love it. The first day, the leasing agent said the first couple of spots were for apartments x through x, but there was NO assigned spots. If we have more than one car, we're to park them behind each other. Cool. We did that. The…

Large chested ladies...I need help :(
I'm currently a 38 F. I've always been big chested, always been a 36-38DD. I got pregnant a year ago, unfortunately lost the pregnancy, but I kept the baby weight and the inflated chest. Way to add insult to injury, right? Nice. At this point, not only am I finding it ridiculously hard to find regular bras, it's near…

A good "Honey I messed up" recipe!!!
So...I went to CVS at 11pm to get some itch stuff for the like, 398350 mosquito bites my husband and I have, and some comfort stuff for him because he wasn't feeling well. I waited until he went to sleep, and went. I haven't done this since I was 16, but I locked the keys in the car. With the lights on. Thankfully my…

I want to start a challenge!
But I've never started one before!! I think I want to do one for other people just getting into fitness. I don't really have a fitness routine, I'm starting at the bottom of the ladder for everything. I'm thinking I want to focus on that, just getting exercise in! And water, because that's also something I know I…

A little re-introduction!
So I joined a while ago, started losing, and hit a pretty decent bump in the road! I felt like complete poo for close to a month, just groggy, felt like sleeping all the time, couldn't get my business together, and honestly felt like I had a constant buzz. Not cool, not cool at all. After like, 3009847987 doctor's…

Hypo - home made protein snacks?
I just found out I'm hypoglycemic. Not a huge deal, but I can definitely feel it, and I know I've been handling it wrong. I just spoke to my doctor, and she said to eat smaller meals throughout the day, keep snacks on me, high protein etc. And eat breakfast. That will be a HUGE issue, but at this point I'm looking for some…

Paleo?
I'm learning slowly about all these new eating habits, and I just read about primal blueprint (which is paleo, correct?) . Seems true enough, and it seems solid. Has anyone tried this? I'm definitely considering it!

Jobs...not sure which to take!
I work part time at a local pet shop, and I love it! But it's part time, and I've wanted to pick up another part time job to pretty much earn some spending money for myself! I interviewed at a local grocery store I frequent, and it looks like fun, easy, laid back work. Limited stress, it's really small, just a cute little…

IBS and water additives
My goal for this month is to consistently drink the daily recommended intake of water. I'm ok with drinking "plain" water, but at this point I'm also trying to eliminate all sodas. I'm allowing myself one diet, caffeine free Coke a day for a week, to ween myself off. After that, I can see myself wanting to get creative…

TMI TMI but I kind of need some input :x
Ok, I'm so sorry, I'll try not to get graphic, but I'm having some serious "female" issues!! I've had yeast infections before, and I'm such a baby when I get them. I tend to get them when I drink a toooon of sodas or eat a lot of sugary things, and occasionally if my pH gets unbalanced for whatever reason. I don't think I…

Dog trouble. Help!
So my husband has a dog, so we now have a dog. I knew going into it he had him, obviously. However, I didn't realize how much care an maintenance went into having one. I've only ever had cats, and I've got a house bunny. When I got Lucy (my bun) I was still at my parents house, and I literally had to do almost a…

Tuna noodle casserole on the crock pot?
I've seen many variations. I've found one I like, but we aren't fond of cream of mushroom. Has anyone tried cream of chicken? I've seen cream of celery used as well. Any input?

Craving honey mustard!!!
Oh man, I don't know what my issue is, but honey mustard has been on my mind ALL DAY. I still have 850 calories, 118 carbs, 34 fat and 20 protein left, and I've been fighting the urge to grab a biggie fry and dive in!! What I could really go for is some niiice breaded chicken fingers dipped in honey mustard. But no! So now…

Too much protein!!! Gah!
So I seem to habitually go over on protein. I guess I just eat high protein foods? I'm going to make it a point to watch, because it's crazy! Has this happened to anyone? I thought I would go over on fat, not protein! Weird!

Help! Husband makes it hard...
It's hard for me to make healthy meal choices because he almost refuses to eat veggies! He's getting better, but they've got to be boiled to the point of mushiness. I've made the green giant side servings for myself before, and I'm perfectly ok continuing to do this, but I'd like him to eat healthy as well. I mean, it's…

So it's my first day officially on program! I'm actually excited to see that I did really well calorie wise and carb wise!! I need to add more protein, which is easy.

Opinions?
The last time I lost weight (and kept it off!) I lived with my parents and could work out in their basement. I did a LOT of Jillian Michaels, starting with 30 day shred and moving up. Problem now is I live on the 3rd floor of an apartment building, can't exactly be doing jumping jacks. I really want to get into P90x but I…

Newbie!!!
I'm new here, obviously!! Last time I weighed myself (about a month ago) I was 180, the heaviest I've ever been :( I wouldn't consider myself over weight, but I am getting close and my diet is HORRIBLE.
