BDW Biggest Loser ~ Season 8

[SheriB]

Kathy that is a ton of water!!! If I manage to do 1-2L I am happy (and in the bathroom peeing all day!!). I need to work on that for sure.

 

I generally take a piece of fruit and a granola bar or a sandwich to work with me each day. The problem is I get busy and quite often don't remember to eat it until 2 or so and then I am starving!! Luckily there is no other food in sight so other than my mid-afternoon Pepsi (and I have tried to break the habit but just not going to happen...) there is nothing to eat until I get home.

 

Cooking a nice piece of salmon right now, yummy!

Maders, I can only imagine how horrible Crohn's is when you're trying to lose weight!

 

Recently I got diagnosed with Interstitial Cystitis (which feels like you have a UTI that you can't make go away with antibiotics), and my doctor gave me a list of foods that I should avoid.

 

Some of them are no problem when you're trying to diet (like soda and bacon) but others are ridiculous (like salad dressing, seasoning, apples, bananas, cantaloupes, citrus fruits, grapes, nectarines, peaches, pineapples, plums, pomegranates, and strawberries). I just feel like it's hard enough to eat healthy all the time when you can eat anything you want!

[BachataBride]

I hear you LeAnne! It's so hard!

And to really mess with me I have to constantly be aware of what's going on with my body in order to know what to eat - ie, multi-grains, wheat pasta/breads, lots of fiber when I'm feeling ok; and white bread/pasta, little fiber when I'm having a flare up. Seriously...make up your mind!! LOL

It's live and learn (or live & deal with the consequences as I tend to do!) lol
