A non-weighted hoop is better than a weighted one: you use more energy keeping the non-weighted one in motion than you will the weighted one; likewise, a smaller hoop will be more difficult than a larger one, as you have to move faster. Honestly, I'd suggest making your own hoop. These are some of the ones I've done out of…

I've lost close to 100 lbs. I'm still losing about half a pound a week at 1400-ish calories a day. If I'm hungry, I eat something, but it's vegetables or protein, as opposed to something less filling. I aim for 40% protein 30% carb 30% fat in a given day, but my weekends tend to be carb-heavy.

You're hungry, so you're going to eat... less? This makes no sense. What is your current height and weight? Goal weight? Can you open your food diary so some people can take a look and offer suggestions?

Try ACV, that should fix it.

Do you live near a University which has a reduced-cost counseling center? Or any providers in the area that work on a sliding scale? Binges are not related to having a big appetite, so appetite suppressants aren't going to do anything, anyway.

Up to you. I lost 100 lbs after having my second child, and was smaller than I had been when I was in high school... then got pregnant with child #3. I sure as heck held on to my pre-pregancy clothes; I didn't care how long it took, but I was going to fit back into them come he** or high water. Took a year and a bit, but I…

There are cakes I make at Christmas that are well over 1,000 calories per slice (see the Death by Chocolate cookbook).

Cottage cheese is one of my main sources of protein. What in it is toxic, such that I should detox from it?

So what is the point, then?

Literally the only addictive substance in soda is caffeine.

Find a new therapist. True Binge Eating Disorder goes way beyond a habit.

Admittedly, I know very little about bariatric surgery, but I'm pretty sure the bolded part is incorrect.

What? So, replace sugar with sugar, then replace that with sugar?

That rate of weight loss is alarming. Wheat is not an appetite stimulant, and not eating wheat does not automatically lead to weight loss. Additionally, wheat is not the only source of gluten; at best, the "wheat belly" movement appears to demonize a plant without much consideration towards being accurate in terms of…

Eh, good for you, I suppose, but I'm enjoying the heck out of burger night here.

Where are they hiding?

Pick database entries that you think are reasonably close.

There are a few, some of which are available at Walmart.

I'm definitely not Rabbit, but thought I'd answer this, too: after my second child was born I list over 90lbs. Took four years (averaged half a pound per week), but it happened. I was down roughly 100lbs from my highest weight when I got pregnant with Baby #3 in 2014. It took a year after he was born for me to lose the…

Y?

A 1200 to 1700 cal/day deficit? Minimum???? My TDEE is about 1700 calories; a 1200 calorie deficit would put me at 500 cals/day; a 1700 cal deficit would put me at 0 calories per day. Thanks, but no thanks, gonna keep losing weight how I have been. I'll take your empty calories, especially the sugars and fried, though.

You honestly do not have that much to lose, relatively speaking; you're what, roughly 50lbs overweight? With 50lbs or so to go, 1 lb to 1.5 lbs a week is more realistic. You are making good progress. You lose weight in the kitchen; you tone up in the gym. Buy a food scale, continue to log everything you eat, and just stay…

Some women also do not lose a lot of weight while breastfeeding. It happens. There's a fine balance between creating a caloric deficit and having it affect your supply. I didn't lose with the most recent baby until he weaned.

You've lost an estimated 20 pounds in 40 days. Tell me again what the problem is?

I too am confused. How does this work? Skittles by themselves are high GI; Skittles with a cheeseburger = complete meal?

Food scale. Tighten up your logging. I agree with another poster that your exercise schedule seems a little... aggressive, and sets you up for a potential injury. Honestly, why not contact a seamstress to see if the dress can be let out a little?

I'm not sure where you're coming from with that claim about pizza being one of the highest calorie items you can get; 1 slice (1/8) of a large cheese pizza at Domino's is 290 calories; one Lender's brand bagel, by comparison, is 230 calories. The pizza is probably more satisfying, thanks to the protein and fat (35g carbs,…

You'd be amazed at how many people would say that the 200 pound body builder does not weigh as much as the 200 pound couch potato, because a pound of fat cannot possibly weigh as much as a pound of muscle. As much as we would like to believe that people understand things like difference by volume, I have seen threads here…
