I think after taking a step back and reading everyone's posts, I have gained some perspective. When I went back and realized that it had been 20 pounds in 2 months, I do feel like that is a bit fast and maybe my body is having trouble adjusting. Then I went back and evaluated what I was eating. Sure enough, I havent been…

They have a higher carb count. Trying to stay below 20 carbs a day.

Yes, close to my doctor diagnosing me. I asked for a chance lose weight and see if that will help my levels. I go for more bloodwork next week.

@AnnPT77 I went back and looked at my progress, it has actually been 20 pounds in 2 month. I didnt mean to lose that quick. However, the only carbs I'm taking in are from the vegetables. I limit myself to broccoli, spinach, cauliflower, and occasionally brussel sprouts. I made the mistake of listening to these groups that…

*supposed to be, many vitamins. I am always low in vitamins D and B12. Then potassium. I've been on prescriptions for years.

I researched it and even got approval from my cardiologist. My cholesterol and blood sugar showed improvement almost instantly. But as time is going by, I am finding myself drained. I have thought about going back to a balanced diet, but my husband and I are doing this together and he is putting up resistance on stopping.…

Thank you for informing me. I did not what to expect during my journey.

I get that. But the stomach doesn't just flatten itself during weight loss.

Thank you for the kind words. I have just started back with MFP yesterday. I am confused on which way to go, either with the low carb or calorie count. I think right now I need simple and that is the calorie count. Again, thank you for the inspiration and if you don't mind, I will add you both. I need all the help/support…

Ireland What is your favorite 80's song?

Cotton. Although I would love silk, I get too hot at night, which would eliminate flannel as well. What was your fashion and hair style in the 80's. If you weren't around then the 90's

Lunch is proving to be hard for me. I am used to slapping meat between bread and now I am turning to cookbooks, pintrest, and friends for healthy lunches. Then I have to cook them, ugh. Today I was lucky, I had left over spaghetti squash, zucchini, and peppers. Then I happened to have a chicken breast leftover, yea me. So…

Hello everyone, I wanted to share some info that I just learned. Some of you may already know this, but some may not. I feel this will help me lose better. Well, upon further research about eating back the calories burned, this is what I have come up with. In order to lose weight, one needs to set themselves a deficit %.…

When will the April goal go out?

To the ladies. Where do you shop for clothes. I have been to Lane Bryant and Torrid, but they do not seem to have a good selection. Maybe I don't have any fashion sense, :)

Hello everyone, My name is Amy and I have a buck and a quarter to lose. I have been on and off the wagon for far too long. I was 167 before I got married 17 years ago. Now having two kids, it has gone up more than I would like. I do not handle stress well so I often find myself eating for comfort. I was diagnosed with…

I am in the same boat you are in. I desperately want to lose 50 pounds by May. That is what I want, but I know I need to do it the right way. MFP said for my height and weight that 1560 a day is what I need to lose 2 pounds a week. I feel if you do it slow, you are learning a new way to eat which is the best way to do it.…
