What do your meals look like (show me pictures)....

Just a quick recap since I think you missed it: you mentioned your HCG diet, complaining about missing foods.
1000-1200 calories per day for women is recommended, here's the thing ... I never lose on ounce on 1000. Being an older female, I have found that 800 works for me and funny thing, I'm not hungry. I really want to cook and bake though.
So you don't even science? Not that it matters since both are jokes, but are you using hcg shots or the even more laughable homeopathic drops?

Actually that's not true, the recommendations are highly dependent on the individual and a number of factors including age, height, weight and activity level, but the lowest number recommended is usually 1200.
ETA: jkwolly is right. We need to keep this focused on all the delicious food...

Many people on here have success losing at much higher numbers, I still lose at 1700 cals/week when accurate with logging.
Also if you search through the forums as well as online you will find a number of posts with really negative experiences with HcG. I suggest you do some more research and I hope you have not been on this for long.
Get out of here with your logic.

As much as I want to blast her too, let's just keep this food focused. Otherwise I'll add 10 pages of rant posts, because I want to, badly.
How I diet is how I diet, others shouldn't judge, but be supportive, as I THOUGHT this was all about.
I WAS talking about food, and how I like to cook/bake, and at this juncture, I'm not able to make the dishes that I truly like, the ones that have gotten me to where I am.
Nuff said.
Now, who's got a lovely recipe?
We said "why do it? eat more and lose weight, it's science."
You said "no."
No judging. Wanting to give someone correct advice is not judging. Why wouldn't we respond to something inaccurate when other people can read it and maybe take it as truth?
NOW FOR JUDGING: show me another 120 calorie dinner, I could use a pre-snack snack idea.
^^ hah, I like this! "Bro, do you even pre-snack?"0 -
... moving on please ...

Is it just me or does it take you to your own recipe page when someone links a recipe from theirs? Every one of these I"ve clicked on takes me to my own recipe page, which is less than helpful.0

If you are talking about the links @MrsA10001posts, I've noticed that, but I wondered if it was because her food diary is set to private.
A few other people have commented on it, but she posts the links anyways.0 -
@MyM0wM0w, ya' know, I thought that I did change that so that everyone could see my recipe box, but I find that I MUST make my entire Food Diary public, so try again please and let me know what you think
There are loads of stuff on my MFP that is not working the way that it's suppose to.
I sent an email to the admin-type-folks, I hope that these issues can be resolved soon.
