  • I usually stay at the Skyline hotel, which is nice, reasonable and close to theatre. I always go to the 1/2 price booth & see a show.

  • I always have hommus celery carrots raw peanuts on hand. I also eat a significant breakfast and 10:00 snack so I don't eat a lot for lunch. A friend has a great idea (I'm stealing) ... she puts 6 or 7 salad choices in plastic containers in fridge on Sunday & mixes through the week. I also have sugar free lolly pops on hand…

  • I'm really not fond of carbs & actually like South Beach & do well with it, but it's not sustainable healthy living. Also I consume very little animal fat so I suspected going over fats was OK; thank's for the confirmation. Any carb snack/chip recommendations? I'm really going to have a hard time eating 2000 calories…

  • Have you ever tried acupuncture? I know it's not a remedy but can help with pain.

  • I struggle with the same problem. For me, if I follow a strict South Beach, NO CARBS, for 2 weeks, I lose an inch. I can't keep that up forever so it's not a long term solution, but it's a fairly reliable quick fix. I have all the books, so if you need receipes friend me & I'll post. CONGRATS! on the weight loss.…
    in Flat belly! HOW?? Comment by mtaylor3348 August 2011
  • I don't understand all this yet. I've only been tracking a week, and I have no weight change. I seldom eat all the allocated daily calories. I've been under every day but one; however I try to eat as much as I can. I have gone over the fat allowance once(2 g) and over the protein allowance twice. I never eat as many carbs…

  • We have similar weight start, goal, and plateau. I currently want to get back to 155, and I know that will be work. It's harder. But I'm with you I can't break that plateau into 140's. Keep me posted. Do they have a "friend" blog scene here? Like others, I teach---Science---to 8th graders. It's my 15th year, and it's still…
