  • Remember that is the recommendation. You can always eat slightly under that but know that is your limit. But with that said don’t go too far below that. As you lose the totals will be less.
  • Something that I did that really helped me was meet with a nutritionist who helped me make a meal plan. I’m the kind of person who really likes routine so I don’t mind eating the same foods (for the most part) every day because I am seeing results. I too have about 100 more pounds to lose and I’ve lost 26 so far. I’ve got…
  • Has anyone figured out how to add people? Lol
  • How's it going for you?[/quote] It’s been a good day. I feel like I’m over eating but until just now I was ontrack for my new goal but my daughter is a strong willed 4 year old and after fighting with her at bath time I had another great and went a little over. So far so good. Tomorrow I will be more careful.
  • Remember, you are teaching those young ones correct habits too! They will model you whether you think so or not!
  • After some thought and reading everyone's suggestions. I decided to go back and allow MFP to tell me how many calories they suggest. It put me up to 1600 calories a day and I decided to use that as my max for a while and see if that helps while still making smart choices about how I use my calories. Thank you all for the…
  • I am seeing a nutritionist and weight loss doctor (don't get me started on her) but the nutritionist suggested that I stay between 1200-1400 calories a day. I can't remember exactly what MFP suggested but I have it set on losing 1.5 pounds a week and I definitely have to loose 100 to even be in the very top of my goal BMI.…
  • We are weighing in at EXACTLY the same number today! Let's help each other get back there! And even beyond!
  • Protein bars can be really really high in calories and despite all that chewing, sometimes is just not "enough". I do like the premier lower sugar bars at Sam's. Same brand as your drinks (I presume). They are 170 and along with some fruit can be pretty satisfying. Espeically the peanut butter dream. (if I close my eyes…
  • Hahahaha that's pretty funny! We have a big evening meeting & training. So we're cooking baked potatoes from the company and everyone is bringing toppings. Cheese, broccoli, sour cream etc. But anything in bar form makes me happy! NIce and fast!
  • I'm thinking I may try to take either the smallest potato I see or split a bigger one with someone at the meeting tonight. I need more fiber in my diet so I'm going to get it there tonight. I think maybe my morning protein bar has too many calories. I'm disappointed about that but it seems to eat up quite a bit of my daily…
  • Thank you guys for the replies. I've been eating the protein drinks for lunch for a couple weeks now and usually it fills me right up. I try having the apple for fiber but I think maybe that's what my body is missing right now. It is about 550 calories grand total. I actually enjoy this lunch so that's why it's strange to…
