A long-aweighted update

I haven't been posting about my continuing diet efforts lately, but rest assured, it isn't because I've quit! I have been a lot more lax recently--see: going out to British Beer Company last night with laurion/asdr83 after helping them move furniture--but I continue to lose, as slowly as ever ( Read more... )

fattitude, health

My husband gets more heartburn when he's heavier, and considerably less when he loses weight. It may have less to do with what you're eating or even how much,and more that your body is just happier now.

Hmmm. I doubt it's related to weight, as I had severe heartburn even when I weighed 135 or 140...

I guess not, then.

Are you eating more dairy than before? Maybe it's all that ricotta creme (which sounds yummy, by the way!)

Did you used to eat a lot of tomato-based food? Last time I saw a doctor for heartburn, she suggested that. I wasn't eating much tomato at the time, so I discounted it as a reason for my own heartburn. But it's something I hear a lot.

Well, tomatoes were always triggers for me--most acidic foods, really. But tomatoes are allowed in all phases of South Beach, so I'd have to say I eat about the same amount as I used to.

I guess it's possible that since I don't eat pasta any more --> less pasta sauce, but that's the only connection I can think of. And I have definitely eaten pasta sauce in the past three months; just not with noodles.
