I weigh everyday also, but if you want to weigh everyday then you need to mentally prepare yourself for weight fluctuations. This morning I was down 1.6 pounds and yesterday I was up .4 pounds. I ate the same calories and I did no exercise. Because of water the body’s weight can and does change everyday, going up and down.…

I tore my tendon in a January, you can still loose weight with out rxcercise. Just set the goals to sedentary, you will get less calories which sucks, but you don’t have to go below them. I started my weight loss journey in December so most of it has been without exercise. I’ve lost about 36 pounds so far, most of it with…

So just a small update. I kept my favorite truffles for Easter and gave the rest to a coworker who has a granddaughter with peanut/nut allergies like I do to enjoy. Thanks for the support and tips when I needed them.

Eat the pizza fit it into your calories. What happens when you finish strict dieting? If you go back to your old ways you will regain the weight. You may find it easier to learn how to eat the foods you enjoy while on your weight loss journey, to better handle them when you meet your goals (unless your goal is to give up…

If it’s that time of the month I can easily gain 5 pounds overnight even if I stayed on plan. Don’t worry about it we all have bad days. I had one yesterday. It is only truly bad if you give up. Try to learn from what you did for next time if you didn’t plan it. Otherwise you ate fried chicken yesterday if you enjoyed it…

Thanks for the advise and tips. I do live with someone and they would hide things for me. The strange thing is it does not really bother me to have things in the house. It can be in plain site and does not bother me, it’s when I actually start eating it especially sweet food that I just always want more. If I don't start…

It told me if I ate everyday like yesterday in five weeks I would gain almost 20 pounds. Yikes

More info is needed. How long have you been sticking to your calories? What is your weight and height? When did u start exercising? Etc

I have diabetes and am insulin resistant. Cisco is working for me just fine. Since I switched to it in the middle of December am down 26 pounds with the benefit of this web site being free. I do need to eat less carbs because of diabetes and blood sugar. I could never do low carb or Keto, although it does work for many…

That being said 9 pounds is a great loss and alot to do more with your effort then then a nudge from the medication. So keep it up.

Yes one of the “good side effects” of Victoza is apppetite suppression and weight loss. Alas after awhile you may get used to it and that effect may lesson and go away. saxenda which is a weight loss drug is actullay victoza with another name and different dose.

The diet that you pick is the one you can follow for life, because if you go back to your old eating ways you will regain the weight. can you eat a chocolate bar, like you asked above? Yes if it is in your calorie allowance, it is just that chocolate bars have a lot of calories for the amount of food you get from it. That…

I waited to long to have it removed, so it was done by emergeny laparoscopy, and I had to stay one night in the hospital. I was sore for maybe a week. After that fine, could eat the same and never noticed any food differences.

The only way to know is to experiment and see what works for you. I eat 3 meals a day with no snacks becauseihavemore success with less cravings (plus I like volume more food). I have tried 2 meals, eating every 2-3 hours, which works for some people. Like I said experiment, try eating for a week every 2-3 hours and see if…

I love pickles. They hardly have any calories but they do have a lot of sodium.

The only way to really know is to test your blood sugar 2 hours after you eat, per the American Diabetes Assosiation your blood sugar should be less than 180 after 2 hours from eating. If you are back down the carb amount is good based on their standard (some diabetes groups/doctors) have different standards. Keep in mind…

Using things has an excuse to stop and not getting back on track like going on vacation or car accident in past. Also while I understand that this needs to be a lifetime thing not just dieting and then going back to the past way of eating. I have problems with adhering to this and find myself falling back to old…

I used to like the old versions of weight watchers, part of the reason was there was no forbidden foods if you counted points, but the last two versions changed that you are punished for eating a piece of chocolate once in a while because of how many points it cost. If I eat a piece of chocolate or other junk food by…

The thing with a cheat day and not logging it is it won’t change that it did not happen and in the end your scale will tell you the truth. I don’t like the name cheat day. Some days and some circumstances you just eat more it happens plannned and unplannned. I just log it in and if unplannned hopefully learn from it.

The other day I bought what I would consider medium size oranges (based on the size of other oranges at store). By weighing them I know they are really each almost the equivalent of 2 medium oranges. I used to not weigh my fruit and non starchy veggies, but calories in fruit add up and what most people consider medium or…

If you are tracking, logging and weighing food (not eyeballing it). Then you just need patience. Weight loss is not linear and a difference of 1 or 2 pounds could be anything. Did you just eat? Did you weigh at the same time and wearing the same thing you did last time. All of these things could show a few pounds…

Your expectations seem a bit unrealistic. Two weeks is not enough time. Weight loss is not linear there will be times even though you are doing everything perfect that the scale won’t show it, you just have to be patient and give it time. you may also want to take measurements besides just the scale, but even for this you…

I retain water like a camel. But it goes away near the end, so I just expect it. I try not to weigh myself during that time and wait until it is over.
