Tuna, pb2, and chicken mainly.

I log on the next day, for example: today is Thursday, but all off my food is listed under Friday, because lunch, dinner, and snacks are usually all after midnight for me. On days off/transition days I log wherever I still have room. This usually means my day starts over after lunch, or around 3pm. I go by a weekly total,…

I've been on here for a tad over 50 days, and for the first month-ish I saw very little change, like maybe 1-2 lbs. But then it suddenly caught up with me, and now I'm about 13 lbs down and still going strong. Hang in there! SW: 220 CW: 207 GW: 150

For me I have different levels of hunger: Empty/light stomach feeling Stomach growling Stomach pain Nausea, pain, and lightheaded The last one is tough for me because once I hit that point most food sounds awful, but I know it will only go away if I eat something. That's why I don't think IF will ever be an effective plan…

I don't cheat in the sense that I go over my goal, but for the occasional holiday or special occasion I will bank calories and/or switch to a maintenance goal for the day. I will also add up any unintentionally banked calories (days when I just didn't meet my daily goal for whatever reason) and add them to one of my…

I work 10p-7a, and my meals are usually breakfast at 6p, lunch at midnight, and dinner at 8a. I put breakfast on tomorrow's diary, then lunch and dinner default to the next day. I work 4 nights a week, and they are not always back to back, so I usually just stay on roughly my night schedule on my days off. However, when I…

5'3, female, 22, current weight 208 (95ish kg), and I'm eating 1500 and losing a bit over a pound a week. You should try to eat more. If you feel full now, why not try some more calorie-dense foods, like peanut butter, avocado, nuts, etc? That way you're eating roughly the same volume, but giving your body enough energy to…

I think that may be an option in the premium version, but with the free version I either bank my calories, (food entry-'placeholder calories') then cash them in on the weekend (exercise entry-'cashed in calorie bank') or I switch my goal to maintenance for the two days, then switch back. When switching to maintenance I try…

I sometimes switch to maintenance for a few days during my period, if my appetite increases. This way I feel full, and at least my numbers won't go up, even if I'm not losing any weight that week.

If you didn't personally make a meal/you don't know what's all in it, find something similar in the database, and find out how much will fit in your day before you dish up your plate. That way you can eat what you like and you won't be surprised by the calorie count later. If you go out to eat, try to find the nutritional…

I would suggest figuring out what your favorite foods 'cost' calorie wise, and portion and plan so you can continue to eat them occasionally. After all, if you deprive yourself of these constantly, you are more likely to slip up, binge, or give up completely. Veggies are generally low calorie, and are useful for filling…

I'm 22, started at 220 a month ago, and am currently at 212. Log everything, and find ways to move more, whether it be joining an exercise class, going for a walk, or simply parking a bit further away in the parking lot. Find a food and exercise plan that works for YOU. If you can't maintain it long term, it won't be…

Personally, I realized I tend to snack around the same time every day, so I account for a snack in my daily goals. I try to ask myself if I'm truly hungry, or am I snacking out of habit or boredom. In between meals and snacks, I keep myself occupied, whether that be reading, crocheting, or drawing. Good luck!

I work at a youth shelter 10p-7a (6p-7a on weekends), and I have found that sticking to my schedule even on my days off works the best for me. I get up around 6 and eat supper (logged as breakfast) with my family, bring a frozen or pre-prepared lunch and a light snack with me to work. I eat a light supper (or whatever fits…

I don't have a food scale yet, and I don't prepare about a fifth of my meals (I live with my folks, and I eat dinner with them frequently) so I have to guess for those meals. Because of this, I try to keep a 200-300 calorie buffer below my goal during the week. That being said, if I am particularly hungry one day, I'll eat…

I bring frozen Healthy Choice Cafe Steamers with me to work and I love them. They are low cal, taste good, decent portion sizes. I don't really have time for meal prep very often so they are a lifesaver!

My goal is 1600, but I usually net around 1300-1400.

I work 10p-7a, and I've just completely flipped my schedule am/pm. I eat breakfast around 6p when I get up, lunch around midnight, a snack around 3, and supper at 8a when I get home. Since my only meal on a different day is breakfast, I put it on the next day. For example, I woke up at 6pm on Thursday, logged my breakfast…

As my username suggests, I'm getting married September of 2017! Everyone feel free to add me!

I work 10p-7a and 6p-7a, and I've found that I do pretty well completely flipping my schedule. I eat at 6p, midnight, and 8a, with snacks when needed. I usually walk on the treadmill for a while after my 'supper', then sleep from 10a-6p. If you are having trouble getting to sleep during the day, I suggest melatonin and…

I load up on ibuprofen and use a heating pad for my cramps, and buy low calorie chocolate treats that I can fit into my day so it feels like I'm indulging. I usually get really tired during my period, so I cut back on my exercise if I need to. I basically take it easy for a couple days (while still sticking close to my…

My favorites are the Healthy Choice Steamers. They have quite a bit of variety and they usually fill me up. If I'm extra hungry, I'll pair one with fresh fruits or veggies, such as sugar snap peas or strawberries.

I work 10pm-7am, and I usually eat whatever my family has for dinner around 6pm right after I get up, then I pack a lunch and eat it around midnight. I pack a few snacks and eat them around 3 am if I'm hungry. Then I eat my dinner around 8am after I get home. I walk on the treadmill, then go to bed around 10 am. This was…

I'm currently on overnights and I've found that I'm fine as long as I eat my meals all around the same time each 'day'. I usually get up around 6 pm, eat 'breakfast' with my family (usually their dinner), I eat lunch at work around midnight, a snack around 3 am, and dinner when I get home around 8 am.

I calculate the number of calories for each meal as I'm cooking, then log them right before I eat. I aim for about 300-500 calories per meal, leaving room for snacks as I go. I usually pre-log exercise, as it's harder for me to blow it off after it's posted, and I've accounted for the calories.

Hey! I'm looking to lose the same amount for my wedding in two years. Add me as a friend and we can support each other!
