^this. I don't know if you actually mentioned shooting for 2 lbs a week, but 1200 calories a day isn't what most people should dive in with. My advice is to eat as many calories as you can while maintaining a moderate deficit. If you're more restrictive than necessary, it will only trigger cravings and the feeling that you…

Sure I'm always up for new friends :)

I do a lot of leftover freezing. For instance, maybe I make skinny mongolian beef for dinner, I have 2 servings leftover so I freeze them in freezer bags and spread them out flat to freeze. Then they store easily in an upright position in a box in my freezer for easy access. I do this for most dinners I make, and when I…

we can't see your diary, but water weight is a good suspect assuming you're weighing what you eat, logging every sip lick or bite, and staying within your calories. If it suddenly drops again, you'll have your culprit. Otherwise, hard to say without knowing your tdee and cico information.

We can be friends

I assume you're talking about setting up the template for the daily meals you intend to eat, and not actually logging those meals. If that's the case, go to "My Home", then choose "Settings", then look on the list and click "Diary Settings". This will allow you to name your meal sections, and decide how many you want (up…

What I've experienced in Legion while running random dungeons is that no one seems to know or care what their role is. I main a huntard, but I also roll a bear and when I'm tanking, I know what I'm doing. I don't need help pulling mobs. At first I thought it was maybe a few new players who didn't grasp the dungeon group…

Same. Don't get me wrong, I like a smoothie now and then, but no way I could replace a meal with a drink every day. To those doing it, I'm curious as to how you will maintain that calorie count when you stop replacing that meal. Maybe it's just me, but as I go through the process of learning how to not be ridiculous when…

I just started 10 days ago. I was at an all time high of 313lbs. I've lost 12 so far, mostly water I'm sure but what has me smiling is that it became pretty obvious fairly quickly that I need to use my calorie allotment wisely. I've been focusing on healthy fats, getting my fiber in, and hitting or exceeding my protein all…

Count me in :)

I've been clean for five months. The thing about WoW is I can't take it in moderation. If I play, I get sucked into the Azeroth universe and I play it every free moment I get. I can't, it's like crack to me. That said... FOR THE HORDE!

Oh I finally found my people. I've logged a ridiculous number of hours playing Skyrim on PS3 and then even more on PC. Then they released SSE and I logged even more. Some of that is due to the fact that I like to mod, so play throughs are important so you know your mod works. I'll be super pleased when SKSE64 is a bit more…

SIMPLE BAGELS This recipe calls for self rising flour. You can make your own or buy it, either way works. To make 1 cup self rising flour sift together the follow: 1 cup flour 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt To make bagels: 1 cup of self rising flour 1 cup Fage Total 0% Greek Yogurt 1 Egg for egg wash…

This chick is always looking for more friends. Feel free to add me, I also keep my diary open.

I tried to do this for the past few days, in fact I intended to do it all this week. I find it's virtually impossible to not make changes when you're staring at your overindulgence and lacking nutrients in bright red numbers. I suppose that's the point of tracking :p But it is giving me room to experiment. I think keeping…

Please add me if you like, I'm 42. I swear, just the other day I was 20.

I can't see your profile or I would add you. I have 3 kids and being a parent does bring special challenges to getting in shape. Don't let negative people drag you down. I'll be friends with you, other moms, and other childless people (men and women). Chin up. EDIT TO ADD: I can't see the part where the OP was excluding…

UPDATE: I have one friend. I hope she's a good one :open_mouth:

I'll be your friend! I don't know anyone here and could use some support too ^^
