Using Bento Boxes for lunches.
Please be easy on me, it's my first post in the forums here! <3 I'm so surprised that there aren't any posts on Bento-ing here; or at least not where I could find them.

Food Choices
A co-worker of mine recently told me that a doctor told her that actually eating oatmeal and yogurts were not "the best" for weight loss, that sticking to more proteins was better. Thoughts? Advice? Oatmeal and greek yogurt are lower calories than eggs so that's why I have been choosing those foods. Of course I do eat…

Hey, I've been doing MFP for about 18 days now, I've lost 8lb with around 58 to go. The program and sticking to it has been working great. I could do with more excersize, but I'm doing my best to push myself. In past diets I would limit myself to a weekly weigh-in, but this time, maybe because of how meticulous I am with…
