    Some people will never admit they are wrong and, also go to extreme and lie to you to get into your diary.
    Someone is obviously still mad that she was called out for trying to give weight loss advice while she eats less than 800 calories per day.

    wow hijack much OP...now where is that mod...

    To the OP...log consistently and accurately that's it.

    Coleslaw without any dressing is very low in calories. Some of us log the dressing calories separately.

    Gaining is easier for almost everyone than losing. You aren't alone there.

    I disagree with this. I know people who find it very hard to eat in calorie surplus from being full. Have you ever seeing someone try to eat 5000 calories a day to put on weight. I do and I live with him. His protein shakes are 1250 calories.

    You said this for your first post in this thread. So entertaining to hear from you.

    I think that is the first thing you need to do is log everything. You would be amazed what hidden calories we consume even though we think we are counting everything. Second, you have to weigh and measure everything to make sure your portions are correct. I also log and plan all my meals for the next day. I know this sounds like a pain, but this is a journey that we are all on, and we have to focus on our goals. I didn't faithfully log for quite a while and I was frustrated with the lack of weight loss, even though I was working out with a trainer. Since I have re-focused, I have been losing steadily, averaging 3 pounds a week. For me personally, I found out that spacing out my calories throughout the days was the way to go, although others folks do it differently.

    I hope that helps!:smile:
