Update.. I have gotten better at calculating my calories daily. I have reduced my carbs to less than 50g per day. This is a really big deal since before I started all I was eating was carbs (not literally of course). I have hit my protein requirements for 2 days in a row now and been under 50g carbs. My energy level has…

Thank you..you give me hope... I have lost 21 lbs since June 22, 2018. I am losing several lbs a week. It's amazing what happens when you pay attention to what you put in your body. I still have between 40-60 lbs to go. My goal is getting healthy, not skinny. I don't have a set final weight..i just want to reduce the…

I won't put my current weight but I lost 21 lbs since June 22. I still have 40-60 to go but very excited..

Sorry.. minimum protein 63g..more is better on protein.

I'm new too. Lost 20 lbs since June 22. I am on low carbs. I went thru what I would call carb withdrawal. Everything I ate before was carbs...Everything. I am sure there were days I was over 4000 calories a day. It gets better but I am hungry still. I am supposed to be doing 1200 calories a day..but I have been under that…

Someone mentioned the food. I am very new and learning constantly. My thing is you don't realize how bad the food you eat really is until you look up one day and realize you are overweight or have some kind of health issue. They make the (From my perspective at least) food addictive. The more salt, carbs, fat ... the…

Thanks for the link. Interesting read. I'm still learning. My Mfp says 1200 calories a day to lose 1-2 lb a week. Without exercise I am losing 1-5 lbs a week or so. Today I hit exactly 20lbs gone since June 22. So Aug 22 will be 2 months. I have so much weight to lose. I will increase up to 1500 calories on days I workout.…

Asiacs give me shin splits if I use them on treadmill. I have new balance with the really soft foam sole bottom . 3 pairs of these. No pain when I walk on the treadmill with them. For me to walk, it can't hurt or I will give up.

Thank you for all the information. I am trying to do this the proper way so it actually lasts. Not sure what Mfp means. I did buy a food scale and actually measure everything and enter it into the fitness app before I actually eat. I have even kept up with condiment packages on the app. I am seriously considering taking…

Sorry.. where do you recommend i go?

Yes it has caused quite a few issues. I have been dehydrated and been to emergency room a couple of times. This past weekend I was having 'tremors' syncope type episodes. I suspect it was from the prednisone i was put from the unknown allergic reaction from a week ago. I have been told im not eating enough. I dont know how…

What? Too confusing. I am new to all dieting. Lost 20 lbs in 2 months on adipex and just basically not eating.. can't figure this stuff out. I need food. Eating less than 1000 calories a day. I stay hungry. I need help.. please..
