    well techneckly yes anything you eat counts but you should try to do it the ballanced way and get some of the other countings in like fiber and fat if you go at it in a ballenced way youll be fuller longer and have more to eat you get alot more veggies for 1900 callories than soda and you are not hungry as long

    Your calorie consumption is the most important thing to weight lost, so theoretically yes. However, eating foods that are high in sugar and sodium will cause health issues and possibly deter your progress. I personally allow myself to eat something back twice a week, and still stay in my calorie count.

    Whatever you want, but you have to exercise, but you'll feel like CRAP if you do eat like that. I ate 'clean' for 3 weeks, energy up and feeling great! I ate a jr whopper and small fries and coke, kept in my cal limit but felt drugged and tired :grumble: Never will I eat that again! Try it you'll see how more alive you'll feel. Good luck and welcome!:drinker:

    I am know expert but I think that you should probably skip 1900 calories of junk. Your body will do better and be be healtier with the good stuff and I would imagine you would lost more. Also when you set up your food counter, you can add things like protein, fat, sugar, etc and track all of those. It gives you the could you should be in

    Oh if only that were true! If you eat all of your calories in high fat high sugar and refined carb foods not only will you probably not lose but you will definitely not get any healthier. It is okay to have these things in moderation only don't make it the soul source of your calories. Mix in lots of whole grain high fiber carbs to balance it and fresh fruits and veggies to keep you healthy and nourished. You eat too much sugar and your body over produces insulin which LOVES to pack away the fat!:frown:

    Sounds like you are doing really well! I find that now that I have told myself that I can have whatever I want as long as it is just a serving or just a little, that I really don't want it. Just good ole human nature. Good Luck!:drinker:

    Now that is awesome! You are changing your life, and it will spill over to your family! I dont know about you but high cholesterol, high BP, diabetes are all things I REALLY want to avoid!

    Not only will you look good on the outside, but you will look good on the inside too!

    Congrats!:flowerforyou:
