I never have groceries in my house because neither my husband of myself can cook. I end up eating McDonalds in my car everyday because its quick, easy, and cheap. I hate it. The food is gross and it makes me feel sick after I eat it. I want to lose weight. I go to school and I work so eating out is the norm for me. I hate it and want to change. Any tips on quick, easy cooking (some things say quick and easy and they are not and I end up ruining them) taste doesn’t really matter too much. I know that people go on diets and eat chicken breasts but I can’t even cook those right. It always turns out too dry and I end up making a huge mess. I don’t know what to do, but I am TIRED of eating McDonalds. I think that fast food should be banned altogether. It can’t be good for anyone and I know other people who do the same thing I do.
I also was just diagnosed with an underactive thyroid. I don’t want to cook fatty meals either. Maybe I’ll take a cooking class at the community center. Thanks for the advice.

My question again was about diet cooking tips and there have been some great answers

does anyone know any natural herbs or remedies for weight loss?

I need to loose at least 60 to 70 lbs,I tried so many things,have lost some weight,but gained it back,I ‘m not financially able to do alot of the popular diets,nor do I have money for the lap band,we do have insurance,but of course they won’t cover any of it.I’m 48 years old,and would love to be able to get the weight off while I can still enjoy things.I haven’t always been over weight, just in the last 10 years. I’ve had everything checked over,they say I’m in good health.other than last year they found I had a thyroid problem,which I take meds for,And I’m not sure what difference that is making.I also had my gallbladder removed this past Christmas,nothing has changed.I am at my wits end, I lately realized I haven’t tried anything organic or natural remedies. I sure hope someone can help me,Thanks to all.

I recently found out my thyroid is underactive and that is why I have struggled with my weight for so long. Does anyone know if the atkins diet will work with and underactive thyroid? I am already on meds for my thyroid and it seems to be normal at times when they check it and others off a little. I have only had blood work done twice though.
