I agree with you. I have had several friends request since the removal of the newsfeed and I delete them all.

There is no reason why you can't eat pizza while trying to lose weight. It's all about nutritional balance and portion control.
-
Is it possible to keep the foods that you binge on out of the house?
-
Meh. Not crazy about them. Would rather have my husband's homemade French fries. Tiramisu (I think that's the correct spelling)
-
Soda is a killer when it comes to added sugar (as you probably know). So are a lot of breakfast cereals. I have a soda no more than once a month. Then, I have a real cane sugar Mexican Coke with my pizza.
-
I've cut down sugar a lot. The only added sugar I consume regularly is a teaspoon in my coffee (non-negotiable) and a Chobani yogurt drink, which I should probably drop/swap for something else but I'm sort of addicted to them. I like to think that the Chobanis keep me from habitually binging on sugar.

I don't take friends requests from any male. I had one guy who I friended who, like you, started asking me all sorts of personal questions like if I was married, if I was happily married, if I had kids, etc. When I asked him why he joined MFP and what his health/fitness goals were, I got no response. I deleted all my…

I don't understand why people think the boards have become toxic (if that is the point of this thread). I've found nothing but helpful, polite, and supportive people here. I've been a member since March 20. I frequent the boards. I'm sad to see that we don't have many Newbies here. The Introduction threads don't seem to…

I love pickled beets but that combo is just plain yuck. Air-popped popcorn sprinkled with fresh parmesan cheese
-

Never had it but sounds yuk! Creamed spinach

Never tried it but sounds yum! Bananas Foster on Vanilla Ice Cream

I can relate to this. I was tired of having my back/legs/knees hurt. I would wake up multiple times during the night from the pain. I've only lost 15 pounds so far, but it's made a big difference.
-
I agree with this 100% Are you being too restrictive? Every failed diet journey I embarked on involved banning certain things, like sugary foods. Also, I repeatedly ate the same bland food. I recommend using MFP to determine the appropriate calorie deficit for your goals (I recommend no more than one pound a week) and stay…

I love Dutch pancakes, although I haven't had them in years. Never had the blueberry option but sounds yummy. Swedish pancakes with powdered sugar and strawberries
-
Didn't know what it was until I Googled it; sounds yum. Pear tart
-
I like to make cottage cheese (or you can use ricotta) pancakes, using cc, yogurt, one egg, and a couple of Tablespoons of flour. Cook them in a nonstick pan sprayed lightly with nonstick spray. Delicious! Another thing I thought of are cheese sticks (the skim milk mozzarella kind) only 70 calories per stick and 6 grams of…

I don't think anyone has mentioned cottage cheese. Good stuff!

NSV: My skin has cleared up tremendously since I've been eating healthier. I don't have a single blemish, and my skin actually glows. It feels balanced. Been getting compliments. I no longer flinch when I look at my face in the mirror.

I'm glad you're enjoying the app. I've been a member since March 20 and am 183.5 as of this morning, down from 200. Logging has made all the difference from previous weight loss attempts. I like the accountability. Logging all your food will give you better guidance as you drop body fat. As you get closer to your goal…

Yum! Plums
-
Are you logging your food? This is a must if you want to measure/track your calorie intake. If you're "stuck" at a certain weight than you've hit your maintenance. I don't know how much you're consuming on a daily basis, but you might need to drop 100-200 calories.

Yum Breakfast Burrito

If you're eating starchy carbs at night like pasta, rice, potatoes, etc. you see a "gain" on the scale the next day because of water retention. I think I'm similar to you, I don't eat starchy carbs at night because I figure I'm not active then, so I don't need the energy plus, I don't like the day-after bloat. I typically…

Your rate of weight loss is going to slow the closer you get to your goal weight (it takes less calories to maintain a lighter bodyweight). 10 pounds over 3 months is not bad at all. If your weight completely stalls after four weeks I would drop 100 calories, depending if you are low enough as it is (I would not go below…

You look terrific! Your face just glows! Congratulations! What an accomplishment! :)
