Well I'm sorry. I'm new to interacting on here. I completely understand where you are coming from now. I need to learn these things myself. It sorta does sound horrible. It's sort of a long story and hard to explain my journey. But you do make some good points.

Hahaha I think those are the ones that give ya massive case of poops

@WinoGelato I used to love those crispy muncho chips. Now they are to salty for me and have a weird after taste.. idk maybe I just associate those foods with feeling guilty after I ate them. I still working out all my kinks in my weight loss journey. I figuring out how to balance my eating habits. I'm not an expert or calm…

I just think those foods don't fuel you. They have no nutritional value. I'm not telling what to eat. Do what you want it's your journey. I prefer to eat them in moderation.. if I find something I enjoy. My tastebuds did change. I don't enjoy the snack and certain food items. I used too. That's all. Everyone is different.…

All I meant was foods that are overly processed.. it's not a big deal. You know what I'm saying. I wasn't trying to offended anyone.

Hahaha people are going off about me using the word garbage!!

Hahaha very funny guys. You know what I'm saying fast foods, chips Unhealthy food items. Hahahahaha

Some people have different taste buds. I used to enjoy garbage. Or over processed foods. I went on a diet and eliminated all those food lost 125. I go back to treat myself to something I used to eat... nothing taste the same as it used to.. I used to love these food and over indulge. Now I try these food and it's somewhat…

I think clean eating in general is great for health!! And it totally helps with weight loss!! I'm a clean eater but I have to focus on increasing my protein in my diet!! When you eat a clean diet. It's crazy how much food you can consume!!! Congrats on eating healthy

Right now I'm trying to maintain my weight and it goes up two lbs when I eat past a certain time. Or eat junk food.. I always gain two lbs the day after I don't drink because of water Retention

Yes I've experienced gain two lbs in 24 hours quite a lot.. it all depends on alcohol intake. Processed foods with a lot of sodium, don't get to worked up. Just go back to your normal eating habits and the scale should go back to normal over time... I've lost 127lbs in a years time and I've seen my weight go up and down…

Oh and I found that sometimes small deli's or corner stores produce section Shevardnadze great deals! Wait until the Summer for amazing farmers markets and you can haggle

Frozen veggies. Easy to microwave and quick sauté!! Go to your local dollar tree. Get a 1lb bag of brown rice and make a lot in advance and they have frozen veggies too for a dollar a nice big bag... banana are cheap. You can buy a five lb bag of apples for five bucks!!! Even sometime uncle bens 90 sec rice is on sale for…

I feel like a plateau is just a simple sign that you have to make another change

Idk about calories intake tracking all that much! You can be eating 1400 calories and eating ice cream or food that aren't healthy.. idk if you are eating grains, veggies and fruits.. I hope you see a change in your weight.. Idk if you are including beverages in your calorie intake.. I believe it better to not drink your…

I personally feel like calorie counting on here helps a lot! Try not to watch cable tv. I would watch Netflix because they don't have those tantalizing commercials every five minutes.. pre portion meal. Prep your meals so it's all set in stone. You don't want to waste money and it all set in the fridge for ya

I didn't use any help. With my weight loss journey, I've lost 127lb in a years time. With barely a support system. It take one simple change over a period of time to get cha motivated. Just start off slow. Maybe just by switching to drinking lemon water no juice or soda. Something so small. Will be drastic. Or find those…

Oh and say when you eat a carb, stay with the serving size. Oatmeal might do well with the digestive track. I love it in the morning gives ya energy and keeps ya full!! Plus is easy to digest. A half cup serving dry make a cup cooked and it's like a huge portion. Plus I add in full banana. Half smashed and half slice plus…

I don't feel bloated. Carbs are good with digestion and help add toxins from the body! I would stick to brown rice, whole wheat pastas and breads. If you eat them! I find that they are easier to digest! Gluten free options are amazing too. I could eat a whole cup of brown rice and not gain a pound. The other day I had a…

The only meals my bf eats veggies really. Is sausage and peppers. Brocolli or spinach pasta. If I make a soup. French fries and corn hahaha He can't eat fruit because it makes his throats itchy. But just get creative and see if he can tell. If he doesn't see it clearly I bet he wouldn't even know

You can sneak veggies into sauces!! Try using cauliflower and purée it into a sauce with garlic and butter! Or purée spinach and garlic and oil!! You could always do a sauce with some puréed veggies snuck into a tomato sauce. I just today a thinly sliced carrot spicy "chicken sandwich" on whole wheat breaded toasted. A…

When you make a meal at home make double So you can bring the left over for lunch the next day

You can have just about anything!! Always have some fruit or veggies. You can proportion nuts! Make salads or a nice healthy sandwich. Or even a cold pasta with veggie bowl!! Or even carrots and celery!! Anything really.

I am partially vegan I do indulge in cheese every so often and eat bare minimal in meat. To taste because my partner is a meat eater!! But I fully believe in a plant based life style!!! Slowing doing this to a hundred percent!!! Lost 127lbs in less than a year and a vegan based lifestyle is so important for the body to…
