I'm going to go against popular opinion and say that I did like it with the following caveats: I am not / was not a BeachBody Coach. I do not / did not drink Shakeology. I did not purchase the system from a "coach". I Google'd until I found out the approximate sizes of each container. I have Tupperware, thanks, I don't…

Food Babe. Dr. Oz.

I realize you're a bit smaller in stature than the average MFP'er, so going below 1200 isn't as big a deal, but maybe eat slightly more than 1000 per day, and be okay with a slower rate of weight loss? Because going below 1000 seems a bit much, even if you are 4'11".

Don't buy it in the first place.

Right there with you. I'm 5'6, and 130 for me is.... eye-watering, and not in a good way.

6 pounds away from it, technically. Not saying it's doable, not saying it's a good idea, not saying getting there would be healthy physically or mentally, but it is not technically underweight.

Might want to re-think that cheat day. Depending on your definition of "cheat", you could be undoing quite a bit of work with it. Maybe a cheat meal, or work things so that going out to eat fits into your calories.

K, still at the low-ish end of things, but not as low. But again with the food scale and logging everything - that's the only way that's going to happen.

Not if they're not eating at a caloric deficit makes 10lbs a month feasible, they won't.

Toxins. ACV.

You are right in the middle of a healthy weight range for your height; dropping to 130 is awfully low, which may be part of the problem. If you don't have a scale, you have no idea if you've gained or lost. Seeing as how you don't have a lot of weight you really can lose, you need to be really accurate with your logging -…

At 8 tortillas a day plus "a lot" of bread, my guess is that you're eating more calories than you need to. Are you entering your food correctly?

... What's wrong with chicken wraps?

What's wrong with cheeseburgers?

Great idea! In with little miss Riley!

By that logic, though, yogurt, cheese, and whole wheat bread are considered "whole foods". I have yet to encounter a whole wheat bread tree. Maybe they're tubers?

It doesn't quite work like that. See http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1077746/starvation-mode-adaptive-thermogenesis-and-weight-loss/p1 for a very thorough review, including references.

I, for one, do not his comment tedious at all; I believe it has merit. What's the problem with the ingredients?

What is the concentration of pus in that raw, unpasteurized milk?

I'm at roughly a pound or two per month, so that seems about right. Interesting! Thanks!

Are you looking to maintain your current weight? The protein seems a bit high, unless you're actively strength training. For grins, try Google'ing Scooby's TDEE calculator, and plug your stats in there to see what it gives you.

Carbs.

Eat at night. There's nothing wrong with that. Are you practicing self-control, or are you getting into the I-can't-eat-XYZ mindset? There's a difference. Plan for a lower-calorie snack at night - celery, peppers, cottage cheese, etc.

Ya know, I'm not quite with you on the LCHF gig (I understand the concept, it's just not for me personally), but I admire the heck out of you for saying you eat almost daily at McDonald's for better health. That's fantastic.

No, it wasn't a major change, honestly. It sounds like a lot, but when someone has a lot to lose, it's not as noticeable. I noticed (at that point I was down from a size 20 to a size 16), and my guess is that other people noticed, but again, people frequently do not talk about weight loss. Additionally, even having lost…

I stand corrected. Your goal weight puts you at a BMI of 18.8, so not underweight, but within six pounds of it. 600 to 900 calories is still very, very low, and not a healthy way to lose or maintain weight; it's highly unlikely you are getting all the nutrition you need at that level. When you go up to 1200 a day, you will…

Just keep going through the day. But also, take a good look at what you did eat this morning and see if you can come up with lower-calorie alternatives.

So, you're underweight. What exactly are your goals?
