Hi Nancy! You can add me, info on my profile. I am 55. :)

I love the Fiber One brownies! When I need a chocolate fix they work right into my plan. Nothing better with a cup of coffee. :) They are only 90 calories!

My plans says I need to eat 1640, but I don't lose at that calorie limit. I am eating 1250 to 1300 calories and losing about 2 pounds per week. When I reach maintenance then I can increase my calories a little. :)

I don't have one but here is a recipe you can try in yours. Coat boneless and skin removed chicken breast with about 1/4 cup of crushed Rice Krispies or Corn Flakes. I do this in the oven, I call it unfried chicken.

You can add me if you like. I have been on here two weeks. Lost 7 pounds so far.

I worked for WW for several years. I have done both. Now I am counting calories and being mindful of my carbs. I have lost 7 pounds in my first two weeks. Using the online journal is what keeps me honest.

I am 55 years old...I also am post menopausal. I eat between 1200-1300 calories a day. I just started on here two weeks ago and I lost 7 pounds so far. I am not on any hormones. There is a high risk of cancer in my family so I am not taking Estrogen. Once I got past the night sweats my body seems to be responding well. I…

You are doing great!! Thanks for sharing!

I agree as well. I would not go below 1200 a day. If you go too low your metabolism will slow down.

I am a former Diamond Leader / Weight Watchers Corporate Accounts Leader. About 10 years ago I lost 83 pounds at Weight Watchers. I ate from ALL your basic food groups. That being said, you still need to watch your calories and watch your portions. If you eat less than your body needs you will lose weight. Just try and…

I am not on Atkins but I do eat lower carbs because I am diabetic. Feel free to add me. :smiley:

Feel free to add me. WELCOME! :)

When I am really wanting a burger I get the Cheeseburger Kids Meal at McDonald's. It is about 415 calories for the whole meal if you get the kiddie fries and apple slices. The serving of fries is very small but enough to satisfy the craving.

You are doing great! You can do this! You can add me...I just started but I am all in. :)

Feel free to add me!

My nutritionist said I could have 1640 a day, but I have been trying not to go over 1250 because I started insulin and wanted to keep losing and not gain. I lost 4.5 last week. My body loses better in the 1200 calorie range. You can add me, we need all the support we can get. :)

Welcome! Feel free to add me!

Feel free to add me! Glad you are here!

You can add me! Willing to encourage and share ideas!

Feel free to add me....we are all in this together!

I make lite deviled eggs. I use reduced fat mayo, and sugar free pickle relish. You can also use low fat sour cream instead of the mayo.

I am diabetic and take Insulin. I also see a diabetes educator/ nutritionist on a regular basis at my doctor's office. Fruit and carbs are allowed on my diet. I eat lean meats and lots of non starchy veggies. I am allowed up to 1600 calories a day, but I aim for 1250 because I want to lose weight. I lost 4.5 pounds last…

When you have a little time go ahead and bake several chicken breasts or whole chicken to use later in the week. There are several online sites of what to do with precooked chicken. Example: Chicken Taco's, Chicken Salad, Soup, Pizza etc. The more prep done ahead of time the easier meal time will be.
