I have never craved candy and sweets so much, so hard!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-on-a-diet-or-trying-a-lifestyle-change-right-now-how-is-it-going#post-384608 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 16:54:37 +0000 Mrs. Pen 384608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: well I already juice about once a week anyway :) If I'm not buying all the other stuff then it shouldn't be much of an expense. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-on-a-diet-or-trying-a-lifestyle-change-right-now-how-is-it-going#post-384605 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 16:53:36 +0000 anonysquire 384605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Coco Bee: I could never get into the juice cleansing thing. I know it does wonders for your body and skin but it seems so expensive to juice so much fruit just for a glass. Good luck with it :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-on-a-diet-or-trying-a-lifestyle-change-right-now-how-is-it-going#post-384604 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 16:53:05 +0000 Mrs. Pen 384604@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lifestyle for sure! But it's been a process over the last couple years... finally found the lifestyle we're aiming for but it's still hard to give up certain things!</p> <p>We are paleo/GF... I def miss my fluffy bread! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-on-a-diet-or-trying-a-lifestyle-change-right-now-how-is-it-going#post-384598 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 16:52:16 +0000 Mrs. Pen 384598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: I want to do something similar once I'm done BF! I was thinking a juice cleanse... although it will probably only be about 7 days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-on-a-diet-or-trying-a-lifestyle-change-right-now-how-is-it-going#post-384579 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 16:46:00 +0000 blackbird 384579@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not while I'm pregnant. I do avoid a lot of processed foods, which I've been doing for years now. But in about 5 months, there will be a BIG diet change coming :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-on-a-diet-or-trying-a-lifestyle-change-right-now-how-is-it-going#post-384540 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 16:27:12 +0000 Mrsbells 384540@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tororojo: Haha be strong and resist the chocolate milk! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-on-a-diet-or-trying-a-lifestyle-change-right-now-how-is-it-going#post-384536 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 16:25:33 +0000 Arden 384536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm attempting to back off soy because I don't want an iodine deficiency during pregnancy. Which is hard, because I love tofu and soy meat replacements. At least I can still have soy sauce, because fermented soy doesn't have the same problem. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-on-a-diet-or-trying-a-lifestyle-change-right-now-how-is-it-going#post-384530 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 16:24:27 +0000 tororojo 384530@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsbells: You're in my boat! Maybe we should be sugar accountability buddies. No more sugar today? :)</p> <p>But I want chocolate milk... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-on-a-diet-or-trying-a-lifestyle-change-right-now-how-is-it-going#post-384519 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 16:22:05 +0000 Alivoo01 384519@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm trying not to let the number on the scale determine how I should eat. I used to be extremely self conscious about that number and would adjust how I ate the following days to ensure I stayed around the number. However, it was tiresome. Now, I just enjoy what I am eating and just be mindful of portions. I haven't jumped on a scale in a couple weeks and know that I'm up a few pounds (prob 5lbs based on the way clothes fit), but I'm okay with that. It's been a heck of a lot easier to maintain the current weight I'm at with no effort. I think if I was single, I could easily maintain the lower weight I was trying so hard to stay around. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-on-a-diet-or-trying-a-lifestyle-change-right-now-how-is-it-going#post-384518 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 16:22:04 +0000 Mrsbells 384518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm trying to cut down sugar especially candy and refined sugar for the sake of my poor teeth and gums, But i just ate a handful of fun size hallween candy. so its not going well </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-on-a-diet-or-trying-a-lifestyle-change-right-now-how-is-it-going#post-384516 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 16:21:16 +0000 tororojo 384516@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm preggers and concerned that I'm gaining too fast! (my weight is on track so far but if the rate doesn't slow down I'm gonna get huge) I'm just trying to not eat as many sweets during the day. So far it's not going well at all, but I did resist the urge for chocolate milk this morning, so that's something! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-on-a-diet-or-trying-a-lifestyle-change-right-now-how-is-it-going#post-384508 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 16:19:27 +0000 Rubies 384508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not on a diet per se...But I'm being careful with what I eat to help with weight loss. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-on-a-diet-or-trying-a-lifestyle-change-right-now-how-is-it-going#post-384430 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 15:59:12 +0000 heffalump 384430@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not on a diet, but I do try to eat healthier. Especially since LO came. I do things like switch to whole wheat pasta, use ground turkey instead of ground beef for everything, no more chips or unhealthy snacks. It's pretty easy for me to say no to that stuff because LO is at the age where if she sees me with it, she wants it. And I don't want her to have it, so I know I can't have it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-on-a-diet-or-trying-a-lifestyle-change-right-now-how-is-it-going#post-384425 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 15:56:45 +0000 anonysquire 384425@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes I'm on a master cleanse for 40 days. It's only day 2 right now so it's still a little rough. It takes me til day 4 to be completely craving free. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-on-a-diet-or-trying-a-lifestyle-change-right-now-how-is-it-going#post-384416 Wed, 07 Nov 2012 15:55:10 +0000 mrbee 384416@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm completely off of sugar, processed carbs and wheat... down about 6 pounds. Life is definitely less fun though! Still, I feel better about the example we're setting for our kids!</p> <p>Still miss my old foods though. I had some potato chips that Bee bought (cooked in avocado oil) yesterday and they were delicious. I kept it very much in moderation though, so I think it's ok.</p> <p>Are you on a diet or trying a lifestyle change right now? How is it going? </p>
