What don't you like about BBQ?

With the things I've been reading here I'm sure many believe that. Unbelievable the mantra being spewed on this website.

"Coffee and soda" do NOT count as water consumption. Those 2 (and more) actually dehydrate you leaving your body needing more water.

Yes! Burn more than you consume. You can have a lot more fish and veggies than you can cake and pizza

120+ to lose for me. 35days in for me. I've used MFP 8yr ago and lost 100lbs but over the years I gained it all back. Keep at it. It works.

This is entirely incorrect. The only time your body would harvest mussels for protein is if you're not getting enough protein. Anybody on the keto diet is well covered in the protein and fat areas. Your body can harvest every single ounce of fat you have that is what it is there for. Your body is designed to store fat and…

I'm 6'1 and 350 and I eat 1500-1700 every day. I don't eat if I'm not hungry. Too many people say you "have to eat your target" and you don't. Listen to your body. If you are content and not moody or really tired then stick with it.

My biggest one was alcohol. Got rid of her and now it's peaceful. Anybody that is not supportive of someone else trying to better themselves has some serious self worth issues or is perhaps just so self absorbed it's crippling them. Tune that crap out and stay the course.

We are all in this together. I've done this before and lost 100lbs and due to a very successful bulking period I have gained all my weight back so not I have to lose it again. This time I want a total loss of 140lbs. Started at 370 and now 352 3 weeks in.

Simple just do it. Log EVERYTHING. Every food and drink. Read all labels and make good choices. Lot and lots and lots and lots of water...... Then drink water. If you have $15 buy a food scale and weigh everything. Long your food intake and stay within your calorie goals. It works so well. Give it 2 weeks before you start…

Well damn me too gained 40pounds now I'm starting over from my weight 10years ago

Add me as well. I know this works and it's nice to know others are in it with me.

Very easily done if you are serious. If you have a lot of weight to lose and have the body fat to fuel your body then it's easy. 1200-1500 good quality calories a day with exercise and you will burn 2.5+ times that every day.

Trust MFP, they know what they are doing. It has worked for me several times over the years. Every time I stop logging I end up over eating and the weight goes back on. I've been loosing 5lb a week for 5 weeks. Burn more than you consume and the weight falls off. I've done Keto (true keto) not just LCHF but I can never…

That's probably estimating the total calories you but all day just by being alive. If you are asking should you eat back 2000 calories a day on top of what you are allowed with MFP? I would have to say NO! Like the other member said, go check out the Fitbit user side. That's a whole different animal then just MFP logging.…

I need to go from 370 to 230. We can do it. I've lost 100 before so I know I can do it and if I can anyone can.

Well be as accurate as you can and log EVERYTHING. Also when you weigh yourself you need to do it at the same time preferably on an empty stomach and after the bathroom in the morning for example. Keep at it because MFP works. I was a success story but gave up and made really bad choices for years and gained my weight back…

Once a week at the same time of day

29 and starting this journey all over again. I lost 80lbs+ before with MFP and I plan to do it again..

You will wake up 30yr old and wonder what the hell happened. Enjoy your metabolism now.

I dont weigh a thing. Everything i buy has a weight on it so i just do math. I will use volume measurments (cups,tsp,ect) but dont use a scale.

Well its only my opinion but I see way to many carbs and sugar. Sodium is through he roof also. Regardless what anybody will say whole foods are are the ticket over processed foods.

I dont know how anyone can ONLY eat 1200 calories a day. How in the heck do you spread that out all day? I struggle at 2000 a day.

Hello, Any "kit" is garbage. It is laced with preservatives to keep it "frash".. The veggies used are sub-par and covered in chemicals. Any salad that is not made from fresh veggies is truly crap. Do your self a favor and make your own. Watch the dressing and meat choice as that can ramp up the calories. Eggs are a great…

Hello, My highest weight was 360lb and I got down as far as 275lb. Since then I have gone back and forth. Everybody has "their own way" when it comes to what they feel is healthy. My diary is open. You will notice my food choices are strict in fashion and very high in fat. I cut all sugars and carbs to below 50g. I am self…

Yes because thats apples to apples!!! DAMN...

Awesome you are doing it RIGHT!!! Im 315 and want to be 230.

Sorry but McDonalds in any amount is bad. Fastfood is not really even food. Go buy a double cheesburger from any chain and put it in a cabinet or shelf or drawer and forget about it. Go look at it in a month,year,decade later and you tell me..

Its not about not being able find a style of eating. I have found many. The problem is I LOVE FOOD and to over eat. I love all the things that are bad like pizza and cheese cake. I love to not have to watch what i eat. When I hit my 275 plateau it stayed there for over a month. Then I started with the "Ill shock my system"…

For sure dont listen to other people about what is right. I cringe when I see people go "fat free" diets and only eat special K. But I have to remember that no one way is the only way. I lost weight on both extreams. It is truly burn more than you take in. Good luck. I know you can do it.
