Thank you so much everyone!

Plain chocolate!

I'm eventually interested in working on muscle but I really want to burn off this excess fat I have first if possible.

I don't understand how if I'm under my calories several days in a row and then the day before I weigh in, I have a very physical day at work I still show a weight gain or no weight lost. It's very frustrating and hard to stay motivated when it happens. I do suffer from PCOS so maybe that has something to do with it.

I think most doctors nowadays are kinda terrible. I haven't been able to find a doctor that seems to truly care or take the time to follow up with your progress like they used to. Even when I start at a new doctors office I feel like I'm treated as if I'm a patient in a walk in clinic, who won't ever be seen again or…

Holy crap! This sounds like the same exact call I got from the nurse at my doctors office. I had been completely crippled by severe back pain for several days. I couldn't walk it was that bad. Every move was agony. They took X-rays and found arthritis in my spine. When she called she basically just said I'm going to have…

Have you not lived in America long? I ask because you are referring to candy here as if it's a new experience for you. I love chocolate and there are very few candy bars I don't like. Godiva is good, Fannie May...pretty much all the others mentioned previously

I really want to try Halo Top now. I usually get the blue bunny mini chocolate swirl cones. They are very good and only about 130 in calories, if memory serves.

Good points

There was a thumbs up emoji written with that lol but it keeps erasing my emojis when I post :)

Lol.

Sorry, what?

Well if you think it helpful to others and a good use of your time to post what's already been said 49 times before you...go for it. No sweat off my back

Never said people can't comment, just was wondering why people repeat the same info if they see it's been said already. And I've gotten some good varied answers.

That's understandable

Lol. I like that you can admit that. Honesty is always refreshing

Well I wouldn't know to skip it unless I go into the thread and start reading. But, yeah, I usually stop reading about half way through when I realize people are just saying the same things over and over and I'm not getting any more info I can use.

Not exactly...more like pointing out the obvious (or not obvious to some)

Yep!

If everyone is in agreement against the OP's post why does everyone reply basically saying the same thing? If the first 1 or 2 people to reply already put the OP's argument to bed, why do 50 more people feel the need to reply with their own version of the same exact answer? Just to really drill the point home that the OP…

Sometimes changing instructors helps too. Because maybe dances or moves that one teacher does maybe doesn't work for you, but another teacher might have a set list that works for you. I had a Zumba instructor that was all over the place and seemed to make up what move she was going to do next on the fly during each song. I…

I make some toast and spread half an avocado on it. I then crumble up some microwaveable bacon and sprinkle on top with some salt and pepper. It's very filling and not many calories. You can also sprinkle with hot pepper flakes or a drizzle of siracha sauce. Next up I'm going to try frying an egg and putting it on top of…

I haven't tried the diet but I will say that, for me personally, I feel like their recipes are too complicated with long lists of ingredients and have way too many steps.

I just can't have certain things around me when I'm dieting. I have very little self control because I know in the end I'll find a way to justify eating it. Sometimes buying things that come already portioned out helps (or portioning them out yourself). Also eating foods that make you feel fuller, longer can help with…

It sounds like one benefits the other. Yes, calories are what matter to weight loss, but having energy and feeling satiated are what help you to stay within your daily caloric intake. So eating certain foods that give you energy and make you feel fuller longer makes macros just as important in losing weight. But everyone's…
