This is me, too. I think I am quite obsessive about it. But not thinking about it was what made and kept me obese. And now I am amazed at how many calories people put away for a lunch or a snack without thinking about it, and I think “you just ate your whole days worth of calories right there!”. I think my husband gets…

Yes, same here. I lost over 80 pounds that way. And I am maintaining the same way.

I lost 82 pounds, no exercise.

I have not had any hair loss, although I understand it happens for some. I don’t eat the healthiest diet either. I hope you are able to find the cause of your hair loss.

I refuse to answer people when they ask how much I’ve lost. Family, friends, customers, doesn’t matter. I think it’s rude to ask. I say very honestly “Sorry, I don’t answer that question “, or some variation. People are usually so surprised by the blunt answer that they don’t ask again. I won’t engage in conversations…

The crust is made from chicken breast. I haven’t tried it, but I saw a review for it in YouTube. He said it reminded him if chicken parmigiana more than pizza, but he liked it ok. (I looked at the website, too. It says the crust us made from chicken breast and cheese.)

Slim Fast Advanced is high in protein and very low in sugar. Gives you a lot of nutrients, too. Easy when you are busy.

Thanks for sharing! It is helpful, isn’t it?! I know that personally I am so grateful for MFP. It has made all the difference in the world for me. Keep up the good work and your wonderful, positive attitude.

I know! It’s crazy!

80 pounds. My Fitness Pal has been great. Finally logging and counting calories is what finally did it for me.

I will only comment on the use of shakes. I used them during my weight loss, and continue to use them as part of maintenance. I find it very helpful for calorie control, while getting a good dose of protein and other nutrition. Also, I like to save most of my calories for the evening. I use primarily Slim Fast Advanced,…

PTO.

No, not homemade. I don’t cook or bake if I can help it. :D

Oops, hit “ post reply” too soon! This has been fun reading all of the baked goods talk! I want brownies and cookies. Yes, best to stay quiet. I think it is mostly just hard to listen to such foolishness. But of course it won’t last. She will move on to another idea she reads on the internet. ( It’s my husbands birthday…

Oddly, I had a discussion with her a couple of months ago about weight loss. I have lost a large amount of weight (80 pounds now). I don’t like to talk about it, because I am pretty private at work and because I know how people can be once you get into the subject of weight loss and food. She was going to the shake places…

Yes, good point. Of course she probably doesn’t think of that kind of sugar as the “toxic” kind!

I have been using the MIO Vitamin. Orange vanilla is my favorite. I don’t really know how to gauge how much I use, especially since I don’t always use the same glass or bottle to drink from. I judge by color. I get to know how pale or strongly colored I want it to be to get the flavor I want. I drink mostly plain water,…

I know that is the common wisdom, but I know it’s not true for everyone. I never sleep eight hours. I sleep about 5 hours most nights, occasionally with a better night, sometimes a worse night. I have lost 63 pounds.

I see this thinking every day at work. My co-workers are always on fitness challenges, counting steps, thats all they talk about. And they don’t lose weight. I don’t participate in their challenges. I count calories (I never talk about it at work). I have lost over 60 pounds. Most people just don’t seem to get it that it’s…

I hate cooking. I like the convenience. After a long day at work, I want to relax. They work for me. I don’t eat them every day, but I eat them many times a week.

I like both, but I buy and use the PBFit more often, because of buying it at Costco. I think I actually like it more than PB2.

I feel silly, but I can’t figure out how you get to the recipe builder. I would love to use this feature.
