New Here

Anyone else tracking their sugar? I need advice.
I am finding it impossible to stay within the sugar goal each day. Today for example, all I ate was salad and a V8 and I only have four grams left. I am sure I will probably go over after dinner. Does anyone have any tips or advice for keeping the sugar low?

Keeping busy is great but I think I am TOO busy and the stress is making me want to eat and maybe eating has become the only way I can relax! I used to be a smoker and quit when I became…

I'm hungry!!!!!!!!
:sad: My usual pattern is afoot. The first week or two of diet and exercise feel great. Then I start to feel STARVING! The first week or so I was going under my allotted calories by 100 or 200 each day. I did not even want any more to eat. Now I find myself going over because I feel so hungry all the time. I am making sure…
