fat 54g carbs 158g protein 70g These are macros I can stick to and works well in my diet.

I know in the UK cereal boxes can have nutritional info for a serving with semi-skimmed milk and 100g without milk, so if that's the case make sure you're getting the info for 100g of cereal then change to whatever amount you have, than add milk separately.

I haven't seen your previous posts, it might help me and others new to this thread to link to them.

What's the nutritional info? and ingredients?
-
Loads of fruits and veggies, nuts, porridge oats, beans, pulses, rice, wholewheat pasta, hummus, seeded bread, eggs, feta cheese, soya milk :)

What types of food are you wanting? Do you mean packaged foods without sugar?
-
If you have a well balanced diet, you should get most of the vitamins and minerals you need. If there are any particular vitamins/minerals you want in your diet, I suggest researching what foods contain them and incorporate them in your diet.

Making my own energy bars with nuts/dried fruits and cacao powder. Chia seed puddings. Pancakes blending bananas, almond milk, vanilla extract and adding blueberries.

I've lost 11lb in the last 5 weeks eating 1200-1300 cals a day, so I would agree with above post, have you weighed food and logged correctly.

All my calories go on "treats" as I love and enjoy everything I'm eating and look forward to every meal.

Yeh they're probably ripe, I've had bananas like this and they were still green skin, but tried one and it was ripe. Luckily I freeze them so it was ok.
-
I remember why I'm doing this, to be fit and healthy. Plan ahead. Eat what I love. No cheat days/meals (I always have hated cheat days or meals and takes me off track)

It won't harm your progress as you're eating less calories than you burn, so you should continue to lose weight and as you stated you're happy doing this, so if it's working why change it. If you feel you get more hungry on exercise days then try upping your calories, but again as you asked it won't harm your progress…

I have 30lbs to lose and have been consistently losing 2lb a week. I'm getting all my nutrition and eating 1200-1300 calories a day so it can be done.

I'd do something to occupy your mind, like reading, go for a walk, any hobby you might have. Eventually you should get used to just eating when you're hungry. I used to be a bored eater, not any more now. I've just got used to eating my meals or snacks within my calorie goals when I'm hungry.
-
Yes it's healthy and safe and can be done.
-
Not me. I weighed myself this morning and I'm in the middle of my period, and lost 2lb!
-
It doesn't just have to be water. I drink 1 litre of water a day, and a few herbal teas, a smoothie that I add water to and fruits & veg which also contain water, what I'm saying is though, you don't have to just drink plain old water. Maybe try adding a squeeze of lemon or lime to water.

Actually it is a myth, eating frequently has no effect on your metabolism, it may help some individuals with weight loss, but that's nothing to do with the metabolism. http://dailyburn.com/life/health/metabolism-myths-weight-loss/ http://healthyeating.sfgate.com/eating-smaller-meals-frequently-speed-up-metabolism-5680.html

I microwave my oats too, takes a couple of minutes still tastes great.

I hate when people tell me I'm going to fail because I've cut certain things out of my diet. They say I can't be happy eating healthy foods and cutting out junk food. I tell them I haven't just cut the foods out to lose weight, I don't want to eat them any more as I'm adopting a healthier lifestyle and I've never felt…
-
I'm the opposite, I wake up neither hungry nor full, have a cup of coffee, then breakfast a couple of hours later when I get hungry. It doesn't matter how or when you're eating breakfast when it comes to weight loss, as long as it's within your allotted calories for the day. It's great you're listening to your body and…

When you scan a barcode it takes the food from the database which has been added by someone on MFP and you never know if it's correct (unless you check of course) You can add foods manually, just click on the "My foods" tab at the top, then "create food" on the right of the screen and add your foods.
-
this is probably why you've had so many posts on here saying you're not losing, because you don't weigh your food, meaning how do you know how much you're eating and log calories correctly. Going by what you weigh everyday doesn't mean you're eating right, it means you could have gained water weight or muscle weight.

Check here http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/finfish-and-shellfish-products/4059/2 http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/finfish-and-shellfish-products/4109/2 best thing to do is add all your own foods, from packaging or the above site, then you know it's correct and no one can change it, as everything on the database can…

What do you mean? Are the scales faulty is that what you mean? Weigh something on your scales you already know the weight of then you'll see. Don't really understand the question other than that.
