I use the mobile app when out and about. Meal prep, meal planning taking my food with me in a lunch cooler helps

I did a pantry clean out and got rid of all my pasta - donated

I have an ounce of ACV daily with a glass of water and an ounce of torani sugar free caramel syrup. Seems to knock the hunger down for me and tastes good

Try to get moving. I'm a walker. Haven't hit the gym yet.

Congratulations! Keep up the good work and remember it's a journey. MFP can keep you on track

I like the weekly recap I get from MFP. Looking at it that way it all averages out.

I go by dry weight then cook it and enjoy. I love pasta and noodles too. I get other types like Pasta Zero. Kroger has a reduced calorie thin pasta that is 150 caloies per 2 dry ounces.

Ive noticed that the macros do not add up to the calories then realized that fiber grams need to be backed out of the carbs. Then the math starts to come together for me.

LaVictoria Salsa Brava Hot sauce

Ive just started trying ACV and love this stuff. I sweeten it with Torani sugar free caramel syrup. Very noticable drop in appetite between meals.

I have LBBB and dialated aorta. Got my cholesterol and BP under control. Goal is to lose all the excess weight. Getting re-evaluated next couple weeks ultra sound and MRI with dye.

I agree that would be a good path for OP to pursue as he discovers what works best for him.

I am under a doctors care and prescription and what I am doing is working fine for me. Last week he told me to keep it up. Lots of layman's advice here MFP. Eat more fat to lose fat. haha

Like others say eat at least 1200 calories. My food diary is open if you want to see what I am having

For me coming to grips with my food and alcohol addictions. I would lose weight and go back to old habits because it was so easy. It doesn't help being bombarded with easy bad choices at every turn. Living for or going along with other people's choices.

I like the Boca crumbles and burgers, I eat beans almost every day. btw I'm not doing vegan right now.

I do 1200 calories and shoot for 100 grams protein

Koger has Low Cow brand very similar

That's horrible I am sorry to hear that. I am at my worst when I live for other people including eating and drinking but I can change that.

80% is due to what you eat they say. My only exercise is walking and that is just to speed up the process for me. Lots of good advice here. My diary is open.

I've mindless ate most my life. I saw a weight loss trainer say something that made me laugh but it's true. "Stop putting stuff in your mouth that doesn't belong there"

Yes. Holidays coming up too. Don't quit logging

Tuna fish sandwiches are cheap. Get an instant pot 3 quart pressure cooker amazon has them. . You can cook lots of stuff in it. steam veggies. Slow cook like crock pot. Pressure cook beans and lentils. Stir fry on saute. scrambled eggs. Boil pasta too. Good luck

Good luck to you. I'm over 60 too

If your next size down is not a final destination just buy a few things or thrift stores are a cheap alternative or friends exchange

I use protein shakes, eggbeaters, water packed tuna, fat free cottage cheese to bump my protein up

The only scale I have used this week is my food scale. Tomorrow is weigh-in day. I have been weighing once a week on Sunday mornings and seeing more consistent comparative results. Little or no change due to water retention gets discouraging.

If you've been eating clean then maybe your stomach didn't like it

Sounds like Liquid. Try this when you go to bed no food or water until morning then weigh
