  • I am noticing the same, gut sticking out but I'm loosing.
  • Everyone's criticizing the financial aspect but not the health benefit and advice the poster inquired. Yes Herbalife has questionable business practices but their products are ok. I used the shakes a few years back. I mixed my vanilla and cookies and cream with soy milk and bananas. I lost weight but felt restricted. I…
  • How can I eat/ lose weight without feeling restricted? I feel like that is what causes my binging, the feeling that I CAN'T eat something really causes me anxiety, and I end up eating it anyway. Is why I am here on MFP because I gained 200lbs. Believing I am supposed to diet and restrict to loose weight, I ended up binging…
  • I just don't know what to do other than eliminating occasional treats. Then I'll feel restricted and tempted and end up binging anyway.
  • You were heavier last time and probably easier to lose. Bumping up the intensity of your workout may push you through the plateau.
  • Lowering carbs is such a feat for me but I'm trying. My future baby is my motivation.
  • I've been trying for a while and I also have 100+ to loose. My doctor will increase the metformin dosage at my next visit this month. I think me being depressed of not being able to conceive has also helped me tip the scale. Im wondering if lowering my sugar intake will be better for insulin resistance or overall loosing…
  • I'm taller than all of you and I'm aiming for 230 lol. Wish I could get to the 100s. Last time I remember being in the 100s was when I was 10 at 160. I have a ways to go but one day at a time.
  • Alright, FINALLY I get it now!!!!! Thanks alot guys!
  • I still don't understand. Science says calories over your maintenance will cause your body to store the extra calories as fat. So if I save calories Monday and splurge 2000 more cal Saturday, wouldn't those extra calories add to weight gain? Or instead of daily count, weekly count is what really matters in either gaining…
  • For me, I binged after caving in to temptation. I felt I was never going to get those sweets again and I binged with the mindset that I'll start new tmw but tmw i still binged. Maybe you need to ask why you binge. I binged because I was dieting and denying what I love. I felt I would never have it again. I learned to…
  • 840 is to low. Minimum for females is 1200. Then burn at least 400cal a day to meet that cal goal. I don't know why the app says one thing and does another. Eat 1200 burn 400 and you'll still loose.
  • I am a yuck mouth as my aunt use to call me. I love cakes, pies, donuts anything cakey. I have learned and accepted thats who I am. For years I have tried to deny those urges to loose weight. Never work. What did work is finding MFP and learning the science behind weight loss. I don't deny myself ANYTHING! I'm loosing like…
  • I don't think anyone means to judge your living arrangements at all! I think it's just that, from your original post, it sounded as though your mother made you breakfast every morning, so one person, (or a few) suggested you make your own breakfast daily. If your mother only sometimes makes you breakfast, or if always, it…
  • 2000. My bmr is 3000. Im not hungry. I load up on protein.
  • I'm sorry, let me reiterate. "Mom makes a breakfast" One would assume if they actually read the statement it would mean one meal. So again, is that what you're reading or judging? Either way, it shoud be of no concern to you or anyone else. My living arrangement wasn't up for question or debate.
  • Did I say every morning or is that what you judged?
  • I loved the program! It offers strength /weight training and cardio in one. Unfortunately I had to stop short because of my bad back. I do it every so often. When I was consistently on the program I saw results almost immediately.
  • I will try sugar free Mindy.
  • I agree with mtfechter. I plan my day the night before and make adjustments as the day progress. For me, I have to eat every two or three hours. Just a piece of fruit or very small snack.
