I think a big part of me not liking veggies or any kind of fish or seafood is because when I was young I couldnt get up unless I ate everything, even if I gagged on eating onions or cabbage or anything like that I still had to eat .It was my step dad that was strict not my mom. Any ways I just never ate any thing that was good for me , because I hated it as a kid...
I also had a mean step father when I was growing up. It wasn't just about him making us eat. He was a drunk and just plain mean. Force feeding only causes eating problems later on in life. I never make my kids eat anything they don't want to.Quote:

I try to eat a good breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and healthy snacks in between. I'm trying to cut calories, sodas, etc, but the hardest thing for me is not eating supper @ 8 PM! When DH & I get home we chit chat, watch TV, then by the time we decide we are hungry it's going on 7 PM so I am trying to get things started by 6 PM and we are done by 7PM. If I get hungry after that, I eat some type of fruit or drink a glass of water to make myself full.
I just started this and have dropped 3 pounds in a week, so I know I am doing something right!
I don't weigh that much to begin with but I'm only 4'8" so anything over 100 (I'm at 101 right now) pounds kills me and I can tell I just don't have the energy like I do at 92-94 pounds!
another great tip is use a small plate when you eat, like a sucer or a childs pplate, it triggers your mind to make you *think* you are eating alot more then you really are kwim?? if anyone is interstred in joing my weightloss group PLEASE email me@
I think snacks should always be fruit BECAUSE you cant eat 10 oranges but you sure can eat 10 cookies.
Good luck you got lots of great advice
you need to burn more calories than you eat. I have a gazelle and LOVE it! I have lost a lot using mine over the last year. The thing I like most about it is that its so easy... I don't feel like I am exercising and I can go for long periods of time on it without feeling worn out or stressed. You can do heavy gliding on it, but I am so out of shape (and lazy lol) that just simply getting on and doing the basic motion has done me wonders... the one thing I did find out is that it doesn't work if you don't get on it LOL I have mine set up in the family room by the TV so that I can watch tv and do it... there are times that I can go for 2 hours and not realize it (especially if there is a good show on LOL) I can also see my computer from my gazelle and I have (in the past lol) had my kids on Ebay shopping for things I want LOL
