Guest guest Posted November 3, 2004 Report Share Posted November 3, 2004 Hi there. I dont post much but would love to participate. Im in the same boat. I recently made a big push to change our diet. Thank goodness my son loves those ready made veggie burgers and he liked the soy hotdogs. I like the burgers myself but I need to find another brand of soy hotdogs. A few days ago I saw my son finally eat 2 pieces of organic baby carrots (raw). I jumped for joy (internally). You see its been a trying experience to get fruit and veggies passed my sons lips. I love the stuff and have no problems eating them lightly steamed or raw. I recently found a recipe for healthy brownies. If it tastes good I will post the recipe. Blessings to all.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 Hey Deana, I think the food journal is an excellent idea. I lost over 50 lbs last year by modifying my diet. I'm not sure wether your aware of it or not, but you shoulf eat an average of 6 times a day, consuming your first meal within one hour of the time you wake up. Every meal afterward should happen about every four to five hours apart. Now you shouldn't eat just anything cause eating that many times a day whatever you want will put the pounds on. An excellent way of eating healthy is to follow a diet for diabetics. You can of course substitute certain things like real sugar instead of a sugar substitute. That's what I did. and every time I've been to the Dr. for a checkup, he says that I'm healthier than he is. If you want to talk, my address is chantellsterling Hope this helped a little.

Guest guest Posted November 6, 2004 Report Share Posted November 6, 2004 Chantell, Let me start by saying congratulations on losing over 50lbs, I have been a visious circle for the last 6 years trying to lose the extra 5 or 6 sizes I put on with no apparent help in site. I am slowly losing it now. I was 162 at the end of my pregnancy and I am down to 144 so I guess it is progress. I will look up the diabetics diet, I also know alot comes from being raised in a family that had very little healthy food for lack of knowledge and money. It was easier for my mom to buy $15 worth of spaghettios and mac and cheese and some canned veggies and not being able to just buy $15 worth of fresh produce. I know it is not her fault she did the best she could. But now I need to learn the proper way of eating so I can show my family and they can carry it on. hugs Deana I found a program called dietorganzer and it is working quite well to track what I eat and the callories fat carbs, proteins sugars etc. Chantell Sterling wrote: > Hey Deana, I think the food journal is an excellent idea.
