Thanks everybody. I wondered if it was possible since I've been working on it for awhile and have only been able to maintain weight. I'm also wondering if I weight lift and then diet, won't I lose some of the muscle that I have gained? I have been using running as a way to lose lbs because it burns a lot of calories, but…

Even if I was consuming 500 extra calories each day, it would bring me up to 1800, which is still less than my daily allowance when I run for an hour (2100)

I don't weigh everything out on a scale. When I purchase meats, I check to see the actual weight on the package and I usually Barcode my foods, as well. For things that have serving sizes in cups, I really do take the time out to measure them. The only things that I'm not sure about are the things when I eat out, but I try…

I appreciate everybody's advise on here because some of it had never crossed my mind before. MFP had my calories at 1,290 per day and I was averaging on having about 200 left at the end of the night. I guess it never occurred to me that I would probably need more throughout the day on the days that I was doing cardio. One…

Bahaha. I laughed for a good amount of time.

The only way to get yourself to lose weight is to make good choices, no matter how much you don't want to. It's good that you are staying under your calorie limit, but maybe you should try to exercise more? Motivation has to come from yourself. Just remember that everybody goes through ruts, but don't fall off completely!…

Most of the time, the food that you eat isn't the problem. If you are refusing to go to a restaurant because "you can't eat anything there", you are dieting wrong. Obviously there are some types of food that you should never eat, like fast food, but losing weight is more about portions. If you want a cookie have ONE. If…

Tip for your team: if you are feeling hungry at night and are trying to not eat a snack, brush your teeth! Nobody wants to eat after they already brushed, plus it'll make whatever snack you want to eat taste weird :)

A couple years ago I was in the high 190s. I started in January and by September, I was down to 145! If I can do it you all can do it!!

Usually, I tend to eat some type of lean meat with veggies. I did this for a very long time, eating grilled chicken, pork, sometimes fish. One of my mother's favorite thing to make when she is on a diet is stir-fry. Basically a lot of veggies and possibly some meat, sautéed with olive oil and with a little soy sauce and…
