I love the mini cukes and mini bell peppers as snacks.

I drink water, chew a piece of gum, have a hard boiled egg or a cup of fresh spinach with some homemade balsamic dressing if I feel hungry between meals. For me, usually the water or gum trick works the best as I'm not usually hungry, but bored.

I don't do cheat days, I log everything that goes in my mouth (unless I go to AYCE restaurants, then I log as much as I can remember and guesstimate the rest of the calories and just do a quick add for those).

67lbs for me (probably not doable in a year, but hey I can dream lol)

I'm having the same problems with my upstairs neighbours (minus the dogs). It's a family with a small baby (less than a year old) and they're always playing their music so loud MY downstairs neighbours can hear it! I've complained to my strata countless times but apparently they won't do anything if it's during the day…

Water weight (in my experience) comes off really fast, so it's probably just that. If you feel lethargic or weak/sick, then I would probably see a doctor. But if you feel fine but are concerned, just keep an eye on it. It'll slow down.

So what I've taken from this thread is that pooping at work while being paid is best and caffeine makes most people poop. I've never had any sort of success with caffeine pills. I bought some from the pharmacy next to my old work but they never did anything for me (I was trying to quit drinking energy drinks).

I had 0 weight gain while being on WelbutrinXL and have not had problems losing weight (except when I eat too much, eg. christmas... oops). And when I was on Effexor years ago, I lost weight because it killed my appetite (along with everything else I could possible feel). So it really is person to person. I've found that…

Ahh okay, that makes sense. Thank you for the help :)

Or the other side of that, I can't use it because I don't understand how it works. What is there to understand? You type in the food you're looking for, you select the proper amount and hit submit.

I'm sure I forgot to log something, so I'm guessing 2-300 over maybe (I had a couple small chocolate candies that I'm guessing are about 100-150cal each, but I couldn't find them in the database and my mom couldn't recall what they were)?

5'4" SW: 240lbs CW: 217lbs GW: ~150lbs I weighed 155 when I was at my peak performance for Rugby, so I'm going to take it as it goes once I get around that area and decide to start maintaining when I'm happy with how I look and feel.

When I started getting serious about losing the baby weight + added weight I'd gained over the last 2 years, bf offered to eat the same things I did when he saw me. I declined, I'm not going to force someone else to only eat chicken and salad because that's what I'm eating. But I did appreciate the offer of it. Now if I…

I got this one in blue, loving it (I've had it for about a month now) http://www.walmart.com/ip/Taylor-3817R-Compact-Kitchen-Scale-Red/36295813

This!! Especially when you offer advice or things to try and they tell you "it's too hard". Well then you don't really want to lose the weight, now do you? Also people who aren't fat calling themselves fat just for the compliments they'll undoubtedly receive (my bf is really bad for this one).

If I have too much fibre in my diet, it smells like something is burning. I've been told if it smells like that to cut out some fibre (I binged on mini blueberry bran muffins after I had my daughter).

I use Scooby's Home Workouts Calorie Calculator to set up my macros and calorie intake. Since I started using that and not MFP, I've been losing weight more steadily.

I'm actually having a similar issues, my fibre, water and fat intake is on point (sometimes a little over, sometimes a little under as would be expected), but if I don't take a laxative I don't go. Very frustrating :( it's been like this ever since I had my daughter 2 years ago. Could not enough protein be causing it? OP I…

Friendly! Big smiles always mean friendly :smiley:
