    Same here! I tried low-carb and realized I just love it too much to not go beyond 100 (apprently a lot...?) Add me up! I'd like to see your food diaries for ideas. :)
  • LOVE IT! I cook and eat real food too...feel free to add me:smile:

    I go for real food too. Since joining this site a few days ago, I realized that the gluten free foods I have been buying for my celiac disease are NOT a good choice! Guess I will have to explore other options, like baking again.

    Eating real food is the only way to go. We have to cut back on how much we are eating. If we want to lose weight and keep getting food with flavor, we have to watch our portion size and move more. I love meatloaf, mash potatoes, green beans and homemade biscuits. Pinto and cornbread, fried food,s and starchy food. I am teaching myself every week to cut back on portions. I am baking more instead of frying all the time. The doctor says fried foods twice a week wont hurt you. So Let me have my REAL FOOD. Great Topic.

    I eat as much real food as possible. Processed food is the reason for the obesity epidemic in this country. Eating real food and learning to control portion sizes is the only way to go. I don't eat low fat anything. I drink whole milk, eat real butter etc. Add me if you eat real food too.

    I am so glad I found this thread! So over hearing about needing processed protein shakes, etc. Real food is the way to go!

    BUMP!

    I'm on day 33 of "100 Days of Real Food Challenge." Today is my very first day on My Fitness Pal, but I'm on day 33 of the challenge.

    I just blogged about my experiences so far -- 7 lbs lost just by changing the types of food I ate. And let me tell you, I had lots of butter and cheese and eggs! =)

    I am new to this MFP.
    I am looking for people who have a lot to lose or have lost a lot to help me on my journey.
    I am looking to eat 'real foods' trying to eliminate perservatives and wheat....easier said than done for a self proclaimed "carb-junkie"
    BUT putting my best foot forward in hopes of suceeding with your help.

    I am ready to be your cheer leader, and could use a bit of 'you go girl'; myself.
    Are you ready to do this process together...add me
    cheers~ Nat :)

    I only eat real food. Except for my beloved metrx peanut butter pretzel protein bars. I am only eating about 1700 calories, and I need to eat real food to maximize the volume of food, and nutrition I get. When I started on this crazy train I ate what ever I wanted as long as I was under my calorie goals. That does not work anymore. Sure I could hit up mc donalds and have 1700 calories, but I would be damn hungry the rest of the day.

    I believe that eating real food is the only way to go. Switching to 'diet' foods just wreaks havoc on our bodies and doesn't really teach us new habits (like real portion control and keeping food diaries). Add me if you like - this topic is close to my heart!
