But how do you know that??

I have a sore head after trying to read this post.... :s

But you said you put on 3lbs not 6lbs? I'm confused...

3lbs will just be water weight...

It's taken me since the start of February to lose 9lbs (I'm aiming for 14lbs) okay it's been slowed down by weekends away, days out with friend and the occasional "stuff it lets get a pizza!" nights...it's been slow and steady but (most importantly) I certainly don't feel that I've missed out. Once I lose my target lbs…

I was wondering the same thing??

Mine is working now!! Phew!

Why come on to MFP a site and community that promotes a healthy sustainable lifestyle by calorie counting, portion control and exercise, only to ask who is doing the meal replacement "diet", then get offended when others question why you have chosen to it in the first place...smh.

I'm guessing it's the OP's TOM???

Okay will give it a try...fingers crossed

Offt...

Sounds like the "hell of a complicated" diet

Some folk will believe any old guff...

Search on here for IF and you'll see plenty of threads on it...loads of helpful (and some not so much) information.

It's all pretty irrelevant, what's your stats? Daily calories, how do you measure them, with a food scale, what's your current weight, what are your goals...

@kimmy72 and @WinoGelato...I love reading your replies, I want to shout yes, exactly what I was thinking! :D

Amen to that <3

If you are using the MFP app and tools, why not just stick to numbers that gives you?

I have the same problem, the ones I wear are great for giving me a nice smooth look (no bulks or drawstring ties) but as soon as I'm on the treadmill I have to literally pull the waistband up to my ribs to stop them from slipping down, very distracting and not to mention silly looking lol...

Maybe it's just me but 1200 seems rather low for someone at 5' 8"...I'm the same height, when I put in 2lbs a week loss I still get 1320 cals (far too low for me so I'm flirting between 1lb - .5lbs a week)

Rich Tea Biscuits dunked in a cuppa...only 38 cals for one ( I normally have 2 or 3 in the evening)

Uh-oh someone doesn't know the rules of the boards ;)

I'm going to follow this thread as I have 6lbs left to lose to get to my GW and it's taking it's time so I'll be interested to see what advice you are given. Oh and good luck! :)

@WinoGelato is great at helping with these type of enquiries, she gave me some great ideas and they have worked.

From all the replies and information given in response to your question, the only thing you commented on was the lentil soup diet...*smh* :(

@JerSchmare love your reply, couldn't agree with you more.

How long have you been using MFP? Have you tried to log your weekends or do you give up at the first hurdle?

Far too much over thinking and analysis for my liking...just give it a try, you've got nothing to lose.

This is they way it works with us...DVD night normally involves "goodies" but while he has a tube of Pringles I'll have plain popcorn, pretzels or lighter calorie crisps. He doesn't drink alcohol which means I'll leave it too but if I want some I'll have a couple of small glasses of red wine (I buy the little bottles which…

Well Done @Dustin0525 an amazing transformation and the best encouragement for the rest of us in our journey
