A BOTTLE of salad dressing? I would gain a pound a week from that alone.
Can I suggest that the single most important thing I got from MFP - and I hit my goal 2 years ago - was learning where the calories in my life were coming from.
USE your diary to learn where yours are. For me, just dropping big glasses of milk, replacing bread with low carb tortillas, and reducing cheese was enough for me to get my calories in line.
I've been telling this to my kids - You're eating an English muffin, cream cheese, and honey. You're worried about the honey for calories. That's 30 calories. The muffin and cream cheese are a few hundred.
The calories aren't always where you think they are. Use your diary to help yourself.0 -

I think you changed your user name but left your photos the same.
Have you gone to see an ED therapist yet?0 -

I'd be more concerned about the lack of nutrition in your diet than stray calories. You are definitely not eating too much - just eating a lot of junk that won't give you the proper fuel and nutrients you need.0

It's quite simple. Cereal depletes the Night Elf's mana pool to 0 and crackers hit them with 50% mp5 reduction debuff that lasts 24 hrs.neversummer7 wrote: »

I've heard almost no good things about Walden Farms.
All of it is made in a lab and all is zero calorie (not shaming chemicals btw - stating a fact).
And I'm very suspicious of 0-calorie PB.
Especially when PB2 barely tastes like PB

The last time saw something 0-calorie, it was a 0-calorie pan-spray. After looking at the ingredients, we realised it was based on silicone.
Somebody is going to come up and correct me, but I am pretty sure silicone is not supposed to be put in your body unless you are planning to get breasts enhancements...0 -

I have no issues with eating processed foods and am not afraid of chemicals - however even I will not go near that Walden Farms stuff. How the heck do you make ZERO calorie ranch? That stuff is too frankenfood even for me. I'd rather have the calories and eat something decent.

From the look of that daily menu, trace calories are the least of your problems. You're dieting like an amateur. I'd be starving and miserable if I ate like that every day.
1. Protein is your friend. Eat it.
2. Stop eating the same thing every day. A bottle of calorie-free dressing a day? Blech!
3. Stop doing the same exact exercise every day. Get off that torture device we call a treadmill and pick up something heavy for a change.
4. Eat back some of those exercise calories. If you're eating 1400 and burning 220, your body is running on 1180 calories. You do not need to eat that little to lose weight.
5. Stop overthinking it.0 -

Exactly. I'm the same way.
My ex picked up a bottle of it a couple months ago when we were shopping. I was like "oh hell no", he put it back on the shelf. And some random lady liked my lecture on why Walden Farm belongs in a trash can0 -

What's wrong with eating the same thing everyday?
Besides being boring, as long as the day is more varied than what she's eating now, I don't see any reason not to eat the same thing.
A lot of people have found success eating the same thing for breakfast & lunch every day with some variety at dinner (I'm not one of them, I get bored eating chicken a lot)
