Chester's hot fries with cream cheese and pickle juice.

I bank calories the week before/the week of and dont bother tracking. I dont track for: Thanksgiving, christmas, Easter, sons birthday. So about 4 days out of the year.

I havent been hungry lately, so I have roughly 1800 calories banked that I will use for Thanksgiving. I'm not tracking that day and dont plan on going too crazy, but want to be on the safe side.

I'm still learning. Before I eat anything I drink something first and wait about 30 minutes to see if the hunger is still there. During meals I eat half of my plate, wait about 5 minutes ( use that time to log my meal, check emails, etc) and continue eating if I am still hungry afterwards. If I'm not hungry I just wrap up…

English muffin. 1/2 with PB other 1/2 has strawberry preserves. 1-2 sliced of bacon depending on my mood. And 2 eggs with mushrooms and spinach scrambled. Other option is breakfast pizza. Tortillia w/ Taco bell hot sauce, 1 scrambled egg, black beans, mushroom, sprinkle some cheese on top. Sometimes I add avocado or other…

The food scale is my friend, but also my enemy. I hate feeling so judged by everyone around me when I pull it out. It's to the point to where I try to have everything pre-weighed and made into portions that way I can just do a quick reheat and eat. Otherwise I wait till after everyone in my family is done eating and then I…

Lemon pepper chicken with oven roasted rainbow veggies - sweet potato, yellow potato, beets, carrots, parsnips, cauliflower, broccoli, onion and celery. All together it was about 475 calories.

I will keep everything until after maintaining goal weight for after a year and then donate them. I put them in the vacuum sealed and store them in my shed.

Just shy of 30 and need to loose about 140-170lbs. I havent set on a goal weight yet. Figured i would just keep going till I hit something I am comfortable with. I am a SAHM, and dont do any workouts outside of my normal typical day at the moment. Just logging everything I eat with a food scale. 4 days in and 4lbs down,…

I was really surprised too. I put new batteries in my food scale and realized I was underestimating some things, and really overestimating others.

I will drink some water or tea first with some HWC. If I am still craving it, I will make room for it in my calorie goals for it either the day of or the next day, or find a similar lower calorie recipe. No need to deprive myself. Doing that is what causes the unnecessary binge eating.

I been cutting 100-200 calories of my daily goal this week will continue till Thanksgiving. I dont plan on logging, dont want to try and estimate all the recipes and dont want to bother my time with the food scale. It's one day, wont hurt me. Just going to drink plenty of water and enjoy the time with the family.

I have since I was a child.

I have a few ideas. I have about 160 pounds to loose. 1. Boudoir photo shoot 2. Updated wardrobe 3. Breast lift/reduction and possibly skin removal if needed.

I am 330 and goal is 180 to start, possibly down to 165. I'm not doing anything to crazy. I just log everything I eat or drink regardless of good and bad, and will adjust from there. Some days I am over calorie limit, some days I am way over. I just started back up 2 days ago. But plan on being here for awhile. You are…

Feel free to add me if you would like to be friends! My name is melissa and I am 28 years old. I am a SAHM. I am currently 330lbs and would like to get down to 165 and then re-evaluate my goal. So I have about 165 pounds to go. Some of my favorite low calorie snacks are hard boiled eggs, cottage cheese with veggies, string…

Thank you, I eat fairly good to begin with, it's just my portions that are out of control. Also lately I drink my calories, which I hope to cut down and learn to control.

Hello, I just joined.. again, but hoping this is the last time. I have success when using MFP, but lose motivation due to lack of support. I have over 100 pounds to lose as well, hopefully we can be friends and support each other through this long journey.

I eat volume friendly foods at night such as popcorn. I pre-log it so I know it fits.

I don't cheat considering that thinking like that makes me feel like I am doing something wrong, which I am not. I either fit it in my deficient calorie goals for the day, or I just eat Maintenance calories for the day.

I usually buy a large ham (I have a few in the deep freezer already from when they were clearancing them out after the holidays) and turn it into several meals. Black eyed peas, white bean soup, omletes, casseroles, sandwiches, salads, etc. I wait to make the soups after most of it is gone, and use the bone to make own…

I only log once or twice a week on here and monitor my weight, but I do step on the scale daily just to see how things affect my fluctuations.

Daily logger! Good or bad.

Cottage cheese.

Exfoliate, plenty of water, and just work on toning.

For every piece of clothing I buy, I get rid of something that Is to big. A lot of my nice expensive clothes from torrid and lane bryant I do still have but I put them away in storage. I don't want to just send it to goodwill and I haven't found anyone I know that fits them.

I love cottage cheese!

Bulk up your meals with veggies.

Kept it. Just eat thingsbin moderation. Plus I have 7 ot her people in my house. Can't just throw everything away because I choosing to lose weight.
