Mine definitely depends on the brand. I can be a 10 in some and an 8 and others, and right now I am 169lbs. I do like my jeans a little on the higher side as well big don't like where it sits on my hips because I have wider hips. I like where they sit just below my belly button. Pants are definitely tricky and I have to…

I do sugar free chocolate pudding. Quite yummy actually
-
Anna that is genius!! I love it
-
I am on BC and I have very irregular periods. Yes, you are right I started on Friday. However I just had it took weeks ago, so it is really hard to gauge with that. Trust me I try. But thank you for the thoughts, suggestions, and ideas!

I had one tonight with a slice of cheese on top, and man am I paying for it now. I just cooked it on the stove, used a paper towel to dab up the grease and my stomach is still killing me! I just think that I haven't eaten fatty foods in so long it is not agreeing with me. NOT AT ALL! But it was delish going down
-
Oh I can definitely relate. I have stopped my drinking except for the weekends. I can't give that up yet. However I drink beer which is bad. Mic ultra has low carbs, but I know it still isn't good for weight loss. :(
-
I know personally that I was surprised at how much carbs my lettuce mix had in it. However, now that I know I just use smaller portions and do better on my dressing choice. I used to be addicted to blue cheese, and nope I don't have that now, but it is something that I truly don't miss. If I want the taste, I use a few…

My NSV is that I can paint my toenails now with a lot more ease. I used to not be able to bend over my belly fat to get to my toenails. So I would have to go every four weeks to get a pedicure. And that costs $25 plus tip. However, I did them yesterday before a party with no problem! That was a NSV for me!! And I saved…

That is my problem as well. I do love my alcohol on the weekends, and it is very hard to do low carb when everyone around you is eating them up. I have lost around 5 lbs in my first week, and I am looking to do the same this week, even though I know that I will have to push myself even harder. Do some workouts and not just…

Since January 1st 2015 I have lost 20lbs. Only the past week has been low carb. I really do feel better throughout the day. I am very lucky because just in the last week I have lost 2 inches from my waist and down one pant size(almost down one more)!!
-
That is so great!! Congratulations on your success in so many ways!
-
Ok, yes I am definitely eating low carbs, moderate protein, and high fat. But yes, there was nothing uncomfortable about it, just hardly anything. I was kind of surprised. Just thought something would be there. But yes, I am consuming a lot less crap than normal. WAY LESS!!
-
I definitely had the back fat issue too. I have lost 20 lbs so far, and for some reason, I actually lost in my back first. Very very surprised!
-
Where do you find your weekly deficit? I can't find it anywhere
-
Ok this might be silly, but it's how the fat of my stomach makes it hard to do things. Like clip and paint my toesnails, or when I'm driving in the car and my stomach goes over my pants and seat belt. And the fact that when I spoon with my fiance, I can't stand him putting his arm around my waist. Just makes me squirm just…

I too drink the Bud Select 55. I put it in a cup and spray a little bit of lime juice in it. I love bud light lime, but it has way to many calories to be drinking it all the time.
-
I completely understand! I have been the same weight for 5 days in a row. 182.3 to be exact! It stinks and I haven't gone over my calorie goal once. So disheartening
-
What about drinking alcohol that doesn't take you over your daily goal? I mean I do have a couple drinks a night, but I do account for those.
-
I love my fitbit flex. It does everything that I need it too and it shows how many calories I burn in a day, tracks my sleep at night, and even will show me how much I lose when I sleep. I didn't think that I would like it as much as I do, but I get really depressed when it has to charge, and I don't get my constant…

I had cottage cheese! I love it!! It is so good
-
Ok, I know that no one can diagnose my problem over the internet. I just didn't know which way to turn in regards to the correct type of doctor. Thank you very much for your advice
-
No I don't. I sort of feel like I am secretive from people in my everyday life. I don't feel comfortable telling people that I see day to day my real weight. I don't tell people my real goals or struggles. I feel more comfortable being anonymous and no one know the real me. That might sound silly or weird, but that is my…
-
I received a fitbit flex as a present from my mom back in October. I didn't think I would use it at all, so I gave it to my fiance. After I started this journey, and he told me everything it told him, I decided that I wanted one. So we went out and got me one right after Christmas. I don't think it would make me lose…
-
I also bought the weight watchers digital scale. I absolutely love it! I bought the one that did water percentage, bmi, and bone density. I love it! Got it on sale at Target for $31
-
I have to lose a lot more weight than you, so I'm sure at first mine will come off easier. Like in the past 4 weeks I have lost around 17lbs. But that is because I have about 50 to lose. I still always eat at a deficit but I don't limit the foods I eat. I just make sure that they fit into my daily calorie goal. Like if I…

I too would love to get a beginner's DVD! Don't know which one to start with
-
Thank you very much for your reply. I just wasn't sure if those had enough of protein that I needed to stay full. I just wanted different opinions, But I will definitely look into the quest bars
-
Thank you everyone! You are right, my journey is about me, not anyone else. I can only control myself, no one else. I can get my support here, and he can do what works for his lifestyle. Thank you so much for all the great advice
-
No, it doesn't matter what he eats. It's just hard when we were supposed to do this together, but now I'm by myself.
-
That's the thing, we had already ate dinner, and we're laying in bed watching tv when this conversation happened. It's like he just wanted it as a bedtime snack. I have no calories left, had just finished my workout DVD, climbed into bed and then he mentioned Chinese. I just felt like he isn't supporting me. He knows how…
