I eat a lot of eggs (usually hard boiled) because they fill me up. Also, having some cooked shrimp in the fridge is a quick filling snack.

I was 22, but my wife was 30(and never married before). Over 22 years together and counting...

I found the "recipes" tab in the food calculator to be helpful when making a large dish like your sweet potatoes. For example, I made a large bowl of guacamole. I weighed each ingredient on my digital scale (in grams). Then I weighed the whole bowl when I was done(minus the weight of the bowl). The recipe calculator let's…

19 days. Just hit 15 lbs today. But I started at nearly 300lbs... ETA: Game changer was the MFP app. Makes tracking calories so easy.

I started 2 weeks ago at my heaviest- 296lbs. I'm already down 15 lbs. thanks to MFP. The app makes it so easy to track calories. I especially love being able to just scan a bar code. Stay strong. You can do this.

Dammit. You're right. Somehow I missed that. So now I gotta add some calories when I use the drippings!@#!@#!@#!@#!

I like the Bodystrong Natural Whey because it's sweetened with stevia. But they have an unflavored one too if that's what your after. I get it online at allstarhealth.com

Allstarhealth.com Usually the Bodystrong brand. Pretty inexpensive.

@btanton27 That's so awesome you lost that much. Glad you were able to change your living situation. You got this!

That's what @AliNouveau said. But why was she trying to keep it a secret from her kids?

The effing WORLD IS ENDING and NOBODY TOLD ME???!!!

WTF?

@KeepOnMovjng Bullies suck and as @madisonmorehead3 said, it gives us "so much bad energy around food and body image." I'm ready to get rid of all that bad juju.

When I was a carpenter, nobody could say caulk or caulking. Yes, it was always cauk and cauking which sounds like, well, you know...

@brookielaw You rock.

Yes, especially the things that get repeated. As a kid, almost everytime I got in an argument with someone, they would say, "What are you gonna do, sit on me?"

@seltzermint555 That's great you've lost so much and kept it off! I think we were the same size in 3rd grade. I remember going to a "weight doctor" when I was 9 and weighed 130 lbs (not sure of my height, but I was the tallest in my class). The doctor literally told me to "just stay at the same weight til you're 13". Yeah,…

@GlassAngyl Have you ever had BF testing done. I did the dunk tank test about 25 yrs ago in college and I'm really curious how much my lean mass has changed.

@ZhivagosGirl That's terrible. Those things stick with us. When I was in 2nd grade, a girl in one of my classes couldn't remember my name, so she just called me Tub-o-lard. Never had any other classes with her, but I still remember her name to this day....

My parents owned an italian restaurant. Guess I like italian food a lot more than my brother...

You know when you're sitting in a chair, and you lean back so that you're just on two legs, then you lean too far and just at the last second you catch yourself? I feel like that all the time.

@kenyonhaff Same here. I was always active in sports. My brother was thin and I was fat.

@Noel_57 What's your target weight loss right now?

Not in a dark alley...

Yep. Just started 2 weeks ago. I've done it before though. Trying to learn more about it.

When I'm peeling a hard boiled egg and I can't get under that stupid membrane that makes the shell come right off, so it takes me 3 minutes to peel it and it is nearly destroyed by the time I'm done. That happened this morning...
