After 18 years what worked for me was take the games away for a hour or two. :)

Congratulations!!!!

Here is my story community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10189223/one-big-thank-you-to-god-and-myfitnesspal?new=1 for me watching cal and more of a variety in food.

Thank you. It wasn't easy. Nor was giving up smoking 2.5 packs of cigs. each day either but I gave that up about 4-5 years ago too. I would love to have a few drinks again but I have looked at the cal on them and they are around 100 cal each. :\ way to much

21-22 beers is what I meant.

Thank you

we fry our chicken. I thought it was a tad low too. But it is close "There are 160 calories in a 1 drumstick serving of KFC Extra Crispy Chicken Drumstick". fatsecret.com/calories-nutrition/kfc/extra-crispy-chicken-drumstick

Ok im going to run out and get some protein supplement because this app shows I should get about 75 grams a day? and I have been between 25-50 a day about?

Lol On typical day before I started to loose weight I would have coffee, Bpj sandwich for lunch about 1-2 sodas and about 21-22 beers and dinner every day and LOTS of cookies and cream ice cream, potato chips till full. I would only get fruit about once a month. one serving of vegies a day. Now I don't drink and I have…

Ok thank you

True good point. quote="gramarye;31814265"] This one. I got in the habit of either creating recipes for stuff I make at home, or just logging individual ingredients of foods. Especially when you're talking "homemade" recipes in the database -- you have no idea how they got there. [/quote]

Yes I am.

ok

That's why I try to leave about 300-350 calorie buffer at the end of the the day. Especially on the days where I'm not 100% sure on my cal. Intake. So I don't go over my intake.

Ok. well I feel fine. I will Try to increase my cal. Intake to get closer to the 1,500 cal. mark. I have had a 300-500 cal. deficit daily. Ill try to close that gap some like 100-300 :)

5 ft. 6 in.

Ok I see protein part now Ill look in to a small protein supplement maybe like a 10g bar or something.

Thank you what a big help.

Any clue on how to figure proper protein amount. To maintain? Thank you

The funny thing is is I am eating healthier now that I watching calories. The only thing that has changed is now I am eating more food and a larger variety of food just smaller proportions of it and I have changed some of the high cal foods for low cal foods. Like coke that has about 140-160 cal. for dr pepper that only…

173.6 on 3/24/2015 and I feel good :D Started on Jan 15th 2015 at 201 Pounds

last week I was at 176.4 so I did drop less. Part of that is I think my lack of walking. I will post my new weight loss tomorrow.
