If you want to lose weight - try not buying the things that put weight on - now isn`t this a novel thing. Alternatively, just eat less or eat smaller portion by using a smaller plate. The funny thing is that a smaller portion or a smaller plate works every time!

Hi Babe,
You`re beginning to worry me! I notice, from message 14, that you are 70 years old - so losing 6 pounds in a week is not healthy, or MAY NOT be healthy at your age. You say you`ve not felt very well - how long have you felt unwell?
I could tell you all the accepted wisdom - as we age we need to eat less or small meals 4/5 or 5/6 times a day are better than 2/3. However, I`m not going to - I would suggest that you speak with your Doctor (in the UK we call them a GP or General Practioner) and tell him/her that you have lost 6 pounds in a week and appear to have lost your appetite. Please, contact your doctor and have a chat with him/her.
All the best,
Archiduc

Since last week I've been craving proteins. I roasted a chicken Monday and had to stop myself from picking it to the bone. I got the same way making tuna salad. I ate one of the cans before it reached the mixing bowl. I try to keep boiled eggs around but my body seems to be want a lot of protein. Any ideas on whats up? What can I keep around to snack on?
Nuts. I find they help.
Also hummus and whole grain crackers, like ak-mak or wasa.....
Sounds better than my carb craving issue yesterday.
Time for a new leaf today. I'm not cutting them out, I just need to have alot less of them.
