Hello. I'm 4'9" and 30 years old. I currently weigh 229 lbs. How did you determine how much calories to have to lose weight? I've been trying at 1400 and not much is happening

I'm not sure. Im still trying to figure it out

I just took a look at their channel. Really big help with meal prep. Will be using their tip with ground beef.

I'm going to let myself eat a bit more on Christmas but the next day I'm back to my normal calories

Thanks for the tip. I just got back from the Y. I'm approved for a subsidy. I only pay $14.20 a month. My first day is next week for an hour with a free trainer.

I will try going over today and talk to someone

No. I'm not. I'm on disability. I've only had ear surgery. I'm part deaf and got a Bone Anchored Hearing Aid implant.

It is just harder this month because of Christmas around the corner

Stuff I shouldn't be buying. I normally just buy what I can within my budget. Whatever I see with a sale sticker.

Is anyone able to help me figure what to buy to last 28 days for about $200.

I don't have a lot to buy groceries. So it's going to be really hard

So should I aim for 1500-1600 then?

I try not to have snacks as I find if I do I end up wanting the wrong thing. So I just stick with breakfast, lunch and dinner. I try to keep my hands and mind busy during the day to keep my mind off food, so I've been trying to learn how to crochet.

I'm short too. I'm 4'9"

I have a food scale. I have some deficiencies now because growing up in my teens I could never go outside when the sun was shining or I would get sick. So I'm taking vitamin D.

I'm a girl

I do go to a dietitian. I get a disability check each month but it isn't much

Both

4'9" here

I enjoy my fruits and vegetables. I like apples, bananas, cantaloupe, grapes, plums, Peaches, strawberries, oranges. Carrots, onions, potatoes, green beans, yellow wax beans, tomatoes, corn, Peas, Lima beans. Its just a lot of them are too pricey for what I get each month. Steak is usually about 4oz uncooked. Tortillas are…

I will try eating less. I guess I do overdo it sometimes. My typical meals include..... 2 cups of puffed wheat cereal and 1 cup skim milk (2 calorie free sugar) + 1 banana and 2 cups water for breakfast. A ham or turkey sandwich with cheese, a little margarine, and mustard. An apple and water for lunch. And dinners are…

I have had normal levels for about 2 years but I'm still diabetic

I have bad ankles because of arthritis and the way I sleep at night

I was always taught that the more I eat the more I gain.

I actually live right next door to a ywca. But I can't afford to go there.

My doctor told me that once you get diabetes you always have it. Its just under control.

I haven't actually tried yet. I just had surgery a couple weeks ago and I'm still healing.

He has me on Metformin (I'm diabetic). He says to cut out most sugary foods. Cut back on fat and try to eat more fruits and vegetables.

I don't have access to a pool. I eventually want to buy one for my backyard. I can't afford a gym as I'm on disability. Yes, my doctor says that my goal weight should be about 120

I have 100+ to lose.
