Hi, Flora! I'm in Fairfax as well! My starting Pokemon was Squirtle and I'm Team Instinct (Yellow).

I'll be 40 on July 14. Maybe we can find a two for one deal?

Good job!!!! You are doing great!

My dad was born and raised in East Boston. I have to say that every time I go up to visit, I have to make a stop at Revere Beach for Kelley's Roast Beef and a Richie's Italian Ice. :) Other than that, I think everyone has named all the good places. If my grandma was still alive, I'd tell you to go there for some real yummy…

I'm with you on the tomato thing. They can ruin a perfectly good bun!

I've been on it for almost two years because I get horrible migraines. When I first started taking it, my appetite did decrease, but it eventually leveled out. The only side effect that has remained is that carbonated drinks like soda taste horrible to me. I can't stand to drink them.

Holy moly! Looks like I may have to skip Kane's next time I go visit my aunt, and hit up Union Square Donuts instead. Or I could just visit both.

I love Kane's Donuts in Saugus, Massachusetts. They are so good. I get them every time I go up there to visit family.

I've been 5'0" since I was 14. Here is sit, 26 years later STILL waiting to grow another inch or two!

I had surgery for my deviated septum on April 4th. I just logged what I ate, even if it was just a popsicle or some saltines. After about a week, I was back to eating my normal diet.

Weight Watchers, Super low calorie eating (800 calories or less), LA Weight Loss, Jenny Craig, Atkins, The Zone, Nutrisystem, South Beach and Medifast. Phew! That's a lot. Now I'm just doing CICO. I've lost 31 pounds since November. I have another 15 to go and have recently changed my goal to lose 0.5 a week. I'm learning…

Hi. My name is Christine. I currently weigh 159.8 at 5'0". I started using his app back in November and was 186 when I first joined. I'm interested in this way of eating, because I tend to naturally have just one large meal in the middle of the day. I will sometimes have something very low calorie in the morning or perhaps…

:D

I had mine originally set at 2 pounds a week, but I found that I'm not the most friendly person when I'm just eating 1200 calories a day. I've changed it to 1 pound a week and I'm a lot more pleasant.

My doctor put me on it for the horrible migraines I was getting. In the beginning, it made me not as hungry, but now my appetite is back to normal. The only thing that has changed is I can't stand the taste of carbonated drinks. They taste like a**, for lack of a better term. I didn't get any of the other side effects, but…

ACK! My brother and I used to be so happy when my dad would bring MREs back from a field exercise when we were kids. I don't know what we were thinking!!!

I don't post or comment very often, but I do read here a lot. My weight loss had stalled a bit, and the one thing I wasn't doing was using a food scale. I got one and realized that I was eating more than I thought. One example is some crackers that I like. The box said 9 crackers was a serving, but when I actually weighed…

As someone who suffered from eating disorders, the best advice I can give you is to seek professional help. It was the best thing I ever did. I would hate for you to struggle for years like I did.

As someone who has suffered from both anorexia and bulimia, the best advice I can give you is to get help from a therapist who specializes in eating disorders.

I will be doing day 3 as soon as my husband gets home and can watch my son. I'm definitely going to print out that chart. I love having a visual like that!!

Hi! I'm Christine. I started day 1 level 1 yesterday. I'm wanting to do the 30 Day Shred before I get my sinus surgery on April 4th. The doctor said I will have to take it easy for at least 3 weeks once that's done. I have lost 22 pounds since November and would like to lose 24 more.

I've tried them and they are ok. It didn't really fill me up, but it did tide me over until I was able to get something more filling to eat.

I'm close to you. I'm in Fairfax. :)

Me too. :)

Those look delicious. I will have to try them out.

My friend and I are starting this plan on Monday. We just finished Jillian Michael's 30 day shred. I would love to join the group so I can have some more motivators. My friend doesn't use MFP, even though I've told her how great it is.

As someone who has suffered from eating disorders in the past, the best advice I can give you is to seek professional help if you already haven't.
