What are we even talking about anymore

They're gross. It's unattractive.

Been there and done that. But I think they just want you to know that if you rush, you're more likely to gain it back quickly and risk becoming unhealthy. I started out super hardcore, like most people here- doing the 1200 calorie thing. It worked for a while, but after some time I just couldn't do it anymore. The weight…

@JAT74 you may or may not find this helpful. But when I started out, I was a little smaller than you. Please listen to these folks when they tell you, losing two pounds a week isn't really appropriate and it's not realistic, for someone your size. I am 5'4 and started out around 138-140. Even when I ate 1200 calories, I…

Create a deficit in your diary. MFP will guide you along. What are your stats (height/weight/age)? I would suggest you not go under 1200 calories, and in my opinion, anything fairly close to that is going to make you miserable. Get a food scale and weigh out your portions before you eat them. A lot of times you can grossly…

Maybe get professional help? If you have an eating disorder you need to address that! Don't be ashamed of yourself. There are thousands of people who are in the same situation, maybe worse. The good thing is, if you fail a thousand times, you can start over a thousand times. But no one wants to do that. Create a calorie…

Hahaha :) Good!

Huh? Clearly that is not working for you. You need to reset. If those other individuals are bigger than you then they'll lose more weight. Do you even know what they're doing really? They may be starving themselves. You don't know that. Mind your own business, and I say that in a positive way. Comparison is the thief of…

I agree! But didn't say this just because you were asking about chicken breasts. But even though thighs have a little more fat/calories, they taste WAY better and it's really hard to overcook them. They are totally worth it.

An hour is way too long :)

lol

I think most people just assumed you meant taking some kind of pill as opposed to distractions, which is what it sounds like you're actually talking about. People around here get pretty defensive when something pops up that sounds like it may not be safe or effective. I'm sure there are plenty of binge eating groups around…

There's a big difference. You look beautiful in all your pics. But you are much slimmer. And your eyebrows are on point! lol

You don't need any meal replacements. Create a deficit in MFP, get yourself a food scale and get to counting and logging. That's all it takes. Weight loss is more mental than it is anything else. Don't feel down and don't feel gross. It's not helping. Just get to work.

Get 4th, 5th, and 6th opinions! Something is clearly going on. Don't stop until you get an answer and/or solution.

I saw the brand in the background and I also saw the women's hair :)

loll

Meh. I have a job where I sit on my butt all day. But there was no way I was letting that stop me from losing weight; I wanted it too bad. So I kicked my goal's *kitten* and didn't let the fact that I didn't move much throughout the day hinder me. I just moved a lot when I got home. As far as food goes, I still ultimately…

Really. The trash? You could have at least sold it for some money or something lol

Excellent job :) Were you at a natural hair expo in your pics? Congrats!

Lol some of you completely missed the joke

ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh lol you are so wrong for all of this

You're gorgeous in all of your pics. Congrats!

You look gorgeous, congratulations!

I'm sorry :( But really, the best thing you can do is just grieve. You're going to have to. It's going to rear its head either now, or later. Just allow yourself to grieve.

A fitbit one can be worn on your pants or on your bra. ETA: a fitbit one won't really track your calories all day though. It'll give you an estimate. A body media may work better for you.

One week isn't enough time to tell if you're making progress. Take the advice of the above posts (weigh your food, etc.) and give it time.

I have 3 autoimmune diseases, all rare, all incurable. No of them cause me much pain though so I am lucky in that respect. Hearts to everyone

lol omg.
