Weight loss

I can do that

That is probably it I don't eat alot but i get large portions when I do

@Happy2BeMe it's funny but only time I have been in great shape is while dating so I know my over eating is depression related to

@chrissbergstrom just cutting back will make a huge difference

@chrissbergstrom Sounds interesting.

A former pro wrestler has his own Yoga company and has helped many people get in great shape

My problem is large portions and snacking

@chrissbergstrom mien was too. Cut down on both.

@Courtlynn when I was a teen it seemed so easy

Yeah I render the Atkins diet

Yeah it could help relieve it but i t hurts doing sit up or any back bends

Except couch surfing @chrissbergstrom !

@allen0187 darn!

I guess alot of any activity is exercise

@chrissbergstrom Very true! You wouldn't want to waste the food. There's drinking a lot of water is healthy and helps lose weight

@infatuatedbby maybe I need to drink more water

That seems to be what I hear it's hard because I usually cook a meal for just me and I don't want to waste it so I eat it all

@chrissbergstrom I think it is good alternative way to lose weight.

I love fruit

@chrissbergstrom It is getting started that is difficult.

@silvermist yes and staying with it

Thanks yes little bit here and there got to start somewhere

Thank you starting next week I am going to start keeping track of my weight, calorie intake, and start a exercise routine.

@chrissbergstrom I cannot stand counting calories..it does not work for me. It makes me crazy as everything is so much calories except lettuce ...lol I found the most helpful thing was walking, if you can do it unless you have bad knees or something. It is so hard to go out though, with the depression, but when you can, you cannot feel worse for it, it helps the mind somehow. Just don't eat tons of donuts or anything haha. Everyone needs protein, so like eggs if you like them, some lean meat like grilled chicken seems to fill people up and a salad I like...you can eat lots of salad because its not fattening. Just dont use the whole jar of dressing. Not tons of potatoes, bread, starchy stuff try to avoid. I do eat some but just not a lot.

I was thinking about apps I should download maybe a calorie intake tracker? Any recommendations?

@Jackalyn hmmm I will try that one thank you

@chrissbergstrom Me too. My food triggers are chips, tacos and chocolate. I was told to get the mini candies instead of a bar. Nope. It's less calories for me to eat the bar then all the minis in the bag.

@noni1959 Agreed the minis its so easy to just keep eating more

Yeah I have a portion control problem

Well of course

That's good

Yeah I realize just need to find ways where I keep my sanity while also losing weight

Honestly I have no clue and am afraid to weigh myself

That is a good idea I love music and enjoy dancing even if I am bad a it. I think joining a dance class for beginners might be fun I need to look into that.

Good advice
