I had surgery scheduled. Anesthesia scares me so to make me a bit less likely to die on the table I decided to lose some weight. After surgery I just continued what I had started. A few months later I added strength training and got back to twice weekly deep water running. I'm in better shape now - and 58 pounds lighter -…

A bit north of Peterborough, Ontario.

Thanks from me, too, as I am having the same problem

I made chocolate with 25 g of coconut oil, 16 g of cocoa powder (unsweetened) and 8 g of powdered sugar. Also added 5 g of walnuts and 10 g of raisins. The whole thing came to a whopping 336 calories. I placed it between two pieces of freezer paper and rolled it really thin, then placed it in the fridge. I still have most…

I'm Canadian and the only one I would eat as presented is the grilled cheese and tomato sandwich. I like macaroni and cheese but without the ketchup, thank you. Poutine is a heart attack meal that it's best to stay away from.

Thanks, folks. Fortunately, this place has everything pretty well by the item - salad fixings, bread, scrambled eggs, bacon etc. No prepared meals, so no guessing of the ingredients involved. The amounts can't be measured so I'll just enter by the piece, e.g. one slice of bread, two strips of bacon and so on. Won't be…

I'm down 19 pounds and don't see it anywhere. My "big" clothes are no looser and the small ones don't fit any better.

I started on Dr. Phil's 20/20 diet on January 12 and finished the three phases except for the last two days when I was in hospital (not related to the diet or food). I figure I'm in a position to know something about the pros and cons of it. I very much doubt that Dr. Phil did the research for the book or came up with the…
