Hi, everyone! Hope you are well. I wanted to mention something so many times in the past, but neglected to put it in my journal. For anyone who has a food allergy (soy, milk, wheat, peanut, egg, sulfites, etc.) it is really important that you make your own meals and try to eat a whole foods diet. So many of the foods being sold today, what we would call prepackaged convenience foods, contain multiple ingredients and sometimes the company forgets to put an ingredient on the label. A lot of foods are recalled because the label was misbranded, leaving out an ingredient. I signed up to get an email update about recalled food and I get an email about a food recall every day. Check out the USA website FoodSafety.gov and click on the Recalls & Alerts tab at the top of the page to see recent recalls. Sometimes the food recall is a pet food or pet treat. Some food may be a health hazard because the food is contaminated or has caused illness. Not nice to think about, but please take care of yourself and your pets.

losing 0.2 lb a week
28 January 2015
Hello, everyone! I've already reached my goal weight, so I've been learning how to increase my calories so that I don't lose any more weight. It's up and down a little every day, but I take the weighins that I do at home for the past 7 days and average them to get the weight that I log here at FatSecret on Wednesdays. Still working at being healthy. Wishing you well and hoping you are good to yourself! Take care.

gaining 0.6 lb a week

Hello, everyone! For those who know me, you were here cheering me on and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am with you all the way! For new members, I know this is new for you and you can do it. I started to track my foods to reduce the amount of sugar that I was eating. To do that, you go to your profile and click on View Diet Calendar. Look for the date and click on Add entry. You will be on the page called My Food Diary, where you add everything you eat for the day. Study that page! Try your best to keep your
calories
below the RDI that FatSecret calculated for you. If you forgot you RDI, it is at the very bottom of that page, to the left of the pie chart. Figure out what you need to keep eating for your health and what you need to stop eating. It takes a while to figure it all out, but you will get into it. My daily goal is to keep my
sugars
column at 50 grams or below. The
fiber
column needs to be at least 25 grams unless your doctor has you on a low fiber diet.
Protein
depends on your age and gender so please look back at my August 24, 2014 journal to see how much protein you need every day or just search the Internet and find out. The
fats
column is controversial. Most nutritionists or dietitians say keep your fats between 30 and 35%, which you can see is the yellowish color in the pie chart. Some people on a low carb diet say higher fat will help you to feel full and you will lose weight. I try to stay 35% or lower because I feel sick when I eat high fat foods. The
carbs
column depends on you. I lost weight when I kept my carbs below 200g, but found that I lost more weight if I reduced my carbs to 120-160g. Get out of the chair and move every day. One to three days a week will help, but daily walking gets results faster. Stick with your plan. You will get healthier and feel better. Good luck!

losing 0.8 lb a week

Hello, everyone! My motto for many years had been Think Positive, but when I joined FatSecret I had a cupcake for an avatar. Being diabetic I could not have sugar in real life so I had a sweet cupcake avatar with a smiling face. After a while I decided it might be taunting to other members who would have to look at my cupcake all the time, so I changed it. In order to lose weight I had to do more than Think Positive, I had to Do Positive, so I changed my avatar to Be Positive for a while, then made it
Stay Positive
. It's a reminder to me and hopefully a reminder to all of you. Good luck! Love ya!

Hello, everyone! I've already reached my goal weight, so I won't be able to join most of the challenges about losing weight. I'm in the
No refined sugar for 1 week
challenge, which starts on Friday. Keeping my sugars low is something I can participate in. I am wishing you all good luck and hope you lose the weight! For those on maintenance, I am learning from you. A few of you want to gain weight and you are in my prayers. All of you are in my prayers and/or good thoughts, as the case may be. Take care of yourself!
