Thank you, I updated my info so I'll see what happens this week. 😊

Thanks for your feedback. I was just double checking since I drink those drinks 2-3 times a week. I'm not interested in trying all the different veggies out there so I stick to the ones I can tolerate. @Kommodevaran, if I wasn't familiar with that drink I would think it sounded disgusting as well but I for one can't drink…

Kami3006, thank you. Not sure why we both got different numbers putting in my stats unless it had something to do with the fact that I said I wanted to lose 1-2 lbs a week. Not even sure how to change it. I'm trying to lose weight consistently, not to continue going up and down. I've been doing the up and down with the…

Judinotjodi, thank you. I guess I will just keep sticking to the 1200 calories MFP recommended. And hes it has been much more difficult for me to lose weight at this age versus 10-20 yrs ago, have to much much harder. Thank you all for your feedback. I'm still a bit confused on what the right amount of calories I should be…

Thank you Panini911, yes I do all the things you mentioned above. My question in my post is more about the confusion of how many calories I'm really supposed to be consuming because if I'm doing that part wrong that will be a good reason why I'm having issues.

Thanks ladies, I have a better understanding now. I appreciate your feedback. 🤗

Oh no, I do log everything weather it has zero WW points or not because I want to keep track of calorie intake as well. I didn't get in that trap of over eating too much fruit or anything else that's considered zero points on WW's because I know calories matter. 😊

Thank you all. Your feedback was a lot of help. I appreciate your knowledge, ideas and feedback very much! 🤗

Cheryldumais, thank you. I'm menopausal which I know has to be playing a part in my weight gain because I have to work way harder then I had to when I lost the first 60 lbs and with the the 18 pounds I gained back most of that is in my stomach (menopausal belly). I am aware about keeping portion control with the zero point…

Thank you all for feedback. It's much appreciated!

KarlyK929, First off, I'm not sitting with my phone in my hand all day so I can only respond when I have the time. Secondly, I wasn't aware I'm supposed to type an actual response to "every" reply. I have read them all and read the links and selected the "like" icon to acknowledge I read them. Most replies were based on…

KellyW444, thank you. It helps knowing others understand the frustration. I would be floored if I was doing everything you mentioned you do and weight loss was so slow. I hate all the work it takes just to lose 1 darn lb a week. But I like the results when it all adds up and how it makes me feel which is why I keep trying…

Hello, I haven't done high carbs in a long time and what I mean by cutting or limiting my carbs, I'm basically referring to the higher starchy fat carbs. Basically all the white carbs. I'm sure I didn't gain weight by eating too much veggies and fruit so I didn't limit those with the exception of not over doing it on the…

MSolberg926, what do you mean by balance at every meal? It seems if I include carbs in my meals I gain weight so I try to keep my meals consisting of protein, veggies and fruit and keep my fruit to 3 servings a day due to sugar content. I wish I can just figure out what works for like so many others seem to do.
