  • Don't let it bug you, that should be the goal of everyone. The best idea is to find ways to stay happy, but not crazy. So count your calories, try to eat at least your 1,200 and try not to eat over a certain amount. I would set an upper target of 10 percent less than what should be a max. It should be easy to stay in that…
  • I stopped drinking coffee and then said why. So, I started drinking it again and I use creamer too..I must have the french vanilla powdered stuff whereas I used to drink the International delight, and so the new creamer is about 30 calories. So what gives with this useless post? We'll, I am not giving up something I think…
  • It's okay to cheat, but you still have to count it. If you have a car accident the dent doesn't disappear. We are humans and so I would suggest that you plan to have things that you do not want to give up. You don't have to feel guilty about being human. If you have a goal, stick to your goal and include the things that…
  • I have eaten there a few times, my guess is that it has something to do with the sauce and although I have not looked their nutrition guide, it might have slightly different bread or more meat, less fat.
  • I walk both on the sidewalk and streets. The streets are wide here in Virginia Beach and the sidewalks are not too bad, except a few places where the slant is a bit too uneven. When it rains, I like to stay the heck off the sidewalks as water pools between the grass. I have several walking paths depending on the time of…
  • I agree with the sentiment that one should not plan for 1200 calories, it puts you into an area of having to think way too much, and dwell on it mentally...probably defeating the whole purpose that you really want. My suggestion is to set a realistic goal...try 1900 calories, track it every day and when you see yourself…
  • I looked up the menu and calorie chart on my favorite Chinese place and decided based on my personal preferences that Mongolian Beef with brown rice, a lunch portion was only 640 calories. I skip the egg rolls but had to get the won ton soup...I don't remember that number but it's a small cup where they drop a few things…
  • Let me think...hmmm. Roses are red and violets are blue, I need some luck in finding you, come reveal who you are, and please don't make me hang out in that bar.
  • Thank you all for your posts, I do read or listen to a lot of books. It's not like I have gone off the deep end, it's what I do to stay motivated...a little of this and a little of that each day, and before you know it, you have a lot of information. Diet books are very interesting to me, especially the ones that compare…
  • Perhaps our government leaders can tell us which diet to use. Some of which say eat wheat, one says no wheat, one says brown rice, one says white rice...geesh. However, I think if they are able they should do something for their food stamps so they can have some respect and not just be given something without doing…
