Veggie Burgers need help!
I love the veggie burgers at White Castle and especially at Houlihan's but everytime I want one, I don't want to have to go to these places. What I like is that they are moist, not slimy and the flavor profile is very good. Was wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of who makes the best veggie burgers.

Greek Yogurt - How to love if you hate it?
I know hate is a strong word but I truly hate greek yogurt. I keep trying it and have yet to find one that I like. I tried Chobani and it tasted like soap. I tried another brand and it was sour - perhaps it was bad. How can I learn to love something I hate and are there specific brands that are better tasting than others?…

Herbalife
Has anyone tried Herbalife. I tried it years ago and lost a lot of weight. Unfortunately, I never did the maintenance part and I gained the weight back. I went back on it recently and I like it. But sometimes I still get cravings. I am starting to go through that change of life and I have my days when I just crave…

How do you keep from going over your sodium and sugar levels?
It seems like everything has salt and sugar - although I try to make good judgement on what to eat with regards to those levels - I'm still over. Can you exercise more to increase your sodium and sugar level? How can one diminish their salt and sugar levels without eating anything. FYI: I'm very picky when it comes to…

This might be redundant
Does anyone have days where no matter what you put in your mouth - you're still hungry? Today is one of those days for me. Any suggestions? What makes it worse is I have a function tonight where hor d'oeuvres will be served. I'll try and keep it to the crudite. But what to have on hand at work when you feel this way? I…

How do you calculate hor d'oeuvres or appetizers when at a party or function?
Tonight and a number of times over the next few weeks, I will be attending either parties or functions. I find it very difficult to calculate hor d'oeuvres and small appetizers. So often salad is not on the menu - so how do you calculate something you don't know who made or what is in it? Any suggestions?

My 600 lb life and Just Eat It Documentary
Just my observation. Last night I watched two great programs - My 600 lb life and Just Eat It: A food waste story. First, My 600 lb life always makes me rethink about what I eat and how much I eat. I am more aware of the excuses we make to justify what and why we eat the things we do. Some of them are very sad and others…

I hate the scale
Some people have no problem hoping on their scales each morning or even once a week. I try to avoid mine like it's the plague. I realize that as we get older it gets more difficult to lose weight. But I think for women it's worse. All these crazy hormones! I turned 50 this past December. My goal was to lose 1 pound on my…

Can drinking water make you sick?
I know someone is going to say - are you serious? And the answer is yes, I'm serious. - I know I need to drink 8 -10 glasses of water each day. Somedays I do fine but there are days when I drink 8 glasses and I get light headed and dizzy. - My food intake is the same for breakfast and lunch. The only thing that changes are…

What are good snacks?
I'm on a protein shake diet that I've been on before and had success. However since it has been years since I was on it, I often struggle with what are good snacks. Sometimes I just want romaine lettuce and ginger dressing but that may not be considered a good snack. Any suggestions?

Exercise - Before or After You Eat
I have read a few articles that says that you should exercise before you eat and then there are others that says to eat after you exercise. I'm confused as to which is right or is it a preference? I find that if I go home, I'm less likely to go back out (especially when it's cold). Once but butt hits the chair, I get…

Still hungry
How can you be full and still hungry at the same time. I just had 6 - 8 oz glasses and I'm still hungry. How can that be? Any suggestions. - It also gets worse at night after I eat dinner.
