Miracle Noodles, aka shirataki noodles. Only 5 calories. Look them up online - life changing if you love a big plate of pasta.

Two weeks without any alcohol and I feel much better than I did in December. My complexion is fabulous! I have more energy. I'm liking this.

MFP is consistent and the science doesn't change. It's free. I don't pay for a proprietary calorie counting system that will probably change in one or two years and leave me frustrated because I cannot do what was working for me anymore, which has happened to me twice with WW.

I think OSW ( original starting weight) refers to when people started MFP or perhaps even before then. I personally don’t put my OSW in my heading.

Isn't that annoying? My scale is inconsistent and I don't know if I should buy a new one.

Weekend get-togethers with foodie friends always include wine and food. I don't plan to socialize much in January because I want to drop some December weight (and save money). I was very "festive".

Doh! Off by one day and one year. Found this in a search and thought it was interesting. Sorry.

If it re-sets you psychologically, go for it. A calorie is a calorie, and Pressed Juicery is over 1200 calories a day. There’s nothing magic about a juice cleanse, but if it makes you feel good then do it. But don’t do it if you think it’s the answer to weight loss, because it isn’t. Do it if it makes you feel good and…

I'm not drinking this month either. The last drink I had was a champagne toast at midnight on NYE. I love a glass or two of red wine and listening to music while I'm preparing dinner, and that's when I miss it most. And next year, I want to wake-up January 1st without a hangover.

Yes please! I want to lose a pound a week. I'm 52 and want to stick to 1200-1400 calories a day. Start weight: 162.6 Goal: 148 1/2= 162.6 lbs 1/9 1/16 1/23 1/30 2/6 2/13 2/20 2/27 3/6 3/13 3/20 3/27

Congratulations etherealanwar- You and I had the EXACT weights and goals. You did so well. I did not and quit. You're very inspiring!

There is a Challenges category on the community main menu. I'd try again!

I did the Lagree method at a studio for 8 months. It was a little intimidating for me and I always felt like I couldn't keep up. Maybe I should try mat pilates instead.

Congratulations to all that have stuck with this. I’ve dropped the ball and too afraid to weigh in.

@AmyC2288 Good research, thanks for the information. I had no idea 💡

Butterbur is supposed to work if you want to buy something at the store. My neurologist recommends it to his migraine sufferers. There are clinical studies that prove it works.

@leonadixon, I'm on month 3 and my migraines have become infrequent and very mild. I only have to reach for my rescue medication (Maxalt aka rizitropan) several times a month which is a huge reduction for me. I was getting 3 per week. My only side effect is constipation, which is a bummer. I really like it. How are you…

Tuna fish - it looks and smells horrid.

Aimovig once-a-month injection is new and it's changed my life.

You're all beautiful!

You look so healthy, and what a success. I, too, love Tito's. It's great with ICE sparkling water and has no calories. I don't mind the artificial sweetener, but I know many don't care for it.

I'm very afraid to weigh-in. I went off the rails this week. It's so great to see the progress this group has made!

My son's dermatologist told us that dairy can make acne worse.
