  • Like other have said, eat the bread if you enjoy it and it's a nutritional bread (low sugar, low artificial crap, ect). If you don't want to worry about figuring out numbers just up your calories per day by 100 and move on. Your weight loss may be *slightly* slower but you wont have to sacrifice as much. (if you're…
  • I will agree with this 100% - calories are NOT the only factor. I've lost weight before eating ANYTHING I wanted if it fit my calories ANYTIME...I got results but it was difficult in many ways, mostly mentally because I constantly would give in to cravings (which often would result in going over calories ever so slightly,…
  • This probably isn't the answer you want to hear...but I don't snack anymore. I eat enough filling and balanced food at meal times that I'm not hungry throughout the day. I just drink a lot of water, sometimes tea. Here's a proper answer for you anyway though, If I was hungry I would grab some fruit, yogurt, cheese stick,…

  • I agree with Panera Bread! I usually get a Upick2 Caesar Salad and Cream of Chicken Wild Rice, and I also ask them for whole wheat bread or sprouted grain roll. Say no if they offer you any 'baked goods'. If I go somewhere else more 'fast foody' I'll get a kids meal usually. Popeyes I'll get the 1 piece mild tender kids…
  • This is so hard, I've been there and I now how difficult it can be. The best part of this though is that you have realized what you are doing wrong and want to be committed to making a change. Things will get better from now on that you know what you have to do. :) Get back to eating healthy and working out. It isn't…
  • For me, it took maybe a week or two I think? However I do still think about the foods I miss from time to time however I don't act on actually eating them. The most helpful part was drinking enough water and eating enough fiber and protein and just healthier overall. In the past when I just made it a numbers only…
  • Welcome to MFP! I hope you find that it is helpful in achieving your goals. :) Feel free to friend me!
  • Best of luck to you! It sounds like you have the motivation but need to work on the discipline and willpower. We've all been there! :) There is probably a reason you fell off track. Are you getting enough fiber and protein? Drinking enough water? I've been trying to limit my treats to once (sometimes twice if it's a really…
  • It's difficult to find what works for you but don't give up! Keep trying and you will find it. :) Feel free to add me and message me if you want. I've been on this site trying to lose weight since 2016 and started at 180lbs. There have been ups and downs the whole time but I'm currently doing really well. Got back from…
  • I would like to be added as well if there's still room! :) Having chicken with carrots and mash potato for dinner tonight.
  • Welcome to Mfp! I am not a huge exerciser as well but have found a lot of good videos on YouTube. I was on a roll with Zumba class videos for awhile and now I'm doing hand weight exercise videos, it's great because I can just do it at home in my living room whenever I want. It's too cold to go outside here right now! Stick…

  • If this is frustrating enough to post online it's definitely taking up too much of your time. HR in reality is not there to be your friend and be on your side, in my opinion it is a waste of time unless it is a safety issue (and still they may ignore you). Bullies are the worst but they are also everywhere unfortunately so…
  • I've been doing this awhile like most people here, at my heaviest I was 180lbs which was not good for me at all. This time I'm trying to focus on eating according to the macro/micro tracking within my calories on MFP and just healthier in general. I was good at getting enough fiber but without protein it did nothing and…
  • Last year's progress. 180lbs - 143lbs. (Second picture is still around 180lbs but I am carrying about 30lbs of it on my back). Starting again now that it's nearing summer after more or less maintaining the same 5lbs all winter, hoping to lose about 30lbs more (I am 5'3").

  • Never seen these products before, but from a quick search it seems like some may be better for you than others. Read the labels and decide if they will work for you. :) http://www.fooducate.com/app#!page=search&term=Quorn
  • Hey man, I hope life is treating you well this weekend. Read your first post and I trust that you have gotten a lot of good advice in these many pages and have learned a lot since the start of your journey. Like I'm sure others have said...don't doubt yourself, make changes that you can live with in the long run. If you…
  • Hey I'm Amanda, I'm originally from Chicago and moved to Canada. I gained weight while waiting to get resident status and not being able to work. I had lost the weight before moving up north and kept telling myself 'I've done it once I can do it again' so I'm finally doing it. I started last October even though my job was…
