I have been on here for a couple weeks but this is my first time posting. I am trying to lose only about 12 lbs but I have yet to lose a pound! I have looked at my food diary and one thing I can see that I need to change is my sugar intake. I have been trying to cut back but I have been unsuccessful! I have a big sweet tooth and I don't care for many veggies but I love fruit. Just between a glass of milk and an apple seem to put me over. Any suggestions?

    I looked back several days into your dairy, you seem to go over your daily limits quite often. Try to stay within your limits. Maybe smaller portions are in order? Maybe a food scale?

    Going over a little bit here and there isn't too bad especially if you create a bigger deficit with exercise on most days. Are you logging any extra exercise? When you do make sure you don't eat the extra calories and don't go under 1200(by a lot). Then you should see some loss. I also have a problem with sugar. My rules are if it makes me go over then don't eat it! instead of an apple try a half a cup of blueberries or a half a grapefruit!!

    ANY exercise will help! Even just walking a half an hour a day! You can do it!!

    Your meals seem to be OK, but you snack often, and not healthy snacks.... Dairy Queen, cakes... if you cut these out you should be under your limits.
