I don't eat to much processed bread but if I do I get whole wheat. It is really so much better than the bleached stuff.
darn...I am not a big wheat fan...oh well gotta do what I gotta do.

If you are really trying to lose weight try to drink diet soda. 1/3 of your daily nutrition shouldn't come from soda or brownies.
No, no it shouldn't. I'll try diet. Would I like to lose the weight, yeah, right now I am just in the "aware of lifestyle, keep numbers" type thing. I usually don't have soda, I'll go months with out it but I was at the store and it was a buck. If I do drink soda it's clear and caffiene free. I have panic attacks and caffiene has set them off. LOL I drank a Energy water and was out with a friend I met and had a panic attack, freaked the life outta her...lol.

Exercise isn't that big of an issue. It helps out and allows you to eat a bit more than 1400 calories.

If you are having trouble walking a consistent mile, I would consider that a warning sign. I would start walking more and try and push yourself to make it through a whole mile without stopping. If you stay persistent you will be able to do it.
I consider it a huge warning sign. I am not sure if I should see a doctor to see to if I should be checking for something or not.

Oh cool thanks.

A big obsticle I have is the budget. I get food stamps of a $155.00 and fresh salad greens, veggies, fruit are expensive on a weekly basis... If romaine lettuice could be frozen I'd stock pile it.

Oh, can I freeze veggies (peppers, mushrooms mostly) from the store or do they need to be steamed? I like raw veggies over cooked.
