I'm also in recovery and haven't had a drink in nine months. I feel great! The mental and physical effects are so worth it for me. That being said, I realize abstinence is not for everyone :smile:

I'm not big on the "regular" Chobani with the fruit in the bottom...but the "Indulgent" flavors...amazing! I've only been able to find Mint & Dark Chocolate and Banana & Dark Chocolate at the stores here so far, but they are both great! They're 140 calories per serving, so having one of them with a banana for breakfast…

I would love to have a mentor. I joined MFP in November and have lost about 10 lbs so far. I'm starting back at college next week and will be working too...so I definitely need someone who has tips for scheduling as far as meal planning and exercising goes. I recently discovered a love of cooking and would love to exchange…

My meals tend to vary day to day, but you're welcome to check out my diary. I usually eat a light breakfast, light/medium lunch, a nice sized dinner, and eat a few snacks throughout the day. I try to cook on Mon, Wed, and Fri, and eat leftovers the other days.

^same. I'm pretty busy and don't like to spend a huge amount of time cooking, so I try to cook a lot at once so it will tie us over for a few days.

I guess I just don't know how that would work with some stuff...like if I make a casserole or something that's kind of large and has a lot of servings, I'm not sure how I would weigh that on my scale. The measurements of my scale are about 7 1/2" L x 5 1/2" W Can a larger dish that extends over the sides of the scale quite…

I wish I liked cooked broccoli and cauliflower. I can eat them raw, but I've never liked them cooked in any way I've tried...

To my knowledge, the reason that the numbers differentiate between male and female standards is that men burn more calories at rest than women do. This is due to the fact that A ) men tend to weigh more and B ) men have increased musculature compared to women. There is no reason that simply having a Y chromosome would…

Hey guys. Thanks for the feedback. I do eat a lot of snacks, like granola bars, fruit, nuts, yogurt, etc. My diary is open if anyone wants to take a look at what my food intake is like. I have been trying to eat mostly solid food especially for the last few days, and I know that the shakes are not sustainable. I'm just…

But I will reiterate what was said before which is that a totally liquid diet is not a good idea...for one thing, those shakes only have about 190 calories in them. You would have to drink about 6-7 of those a day to meet a 1200 calorie diet.

I don't see a problem with it as long as you're only replacing 1-2 meals a day and you are still eating enough snacks/food (preferably nutrient dense) during the rest of the day to meet your caloric and nutrient requirements. I drink the equate weight loss shakes from Walmart. I usually will have one for breakfast, one for…

I would love to have some friends to motivate me.
