  • LOL my brother loves that place. He says the girls are hotter than Hooters but meaner, too! Fish or steak, no sauce, and steamed veggies!

  • Doesn't sound too bad if you are trying to lose weight. If you feel good and are getting all your nutrients, stick to it. Hopefully you are eating lots of fresh foods and not a lot of processed stuff - 1200 calories of junk and 1200 calories of clean eating are two totally different things!!!

  • Also, there is no reason you MUST eat fruit. Veggies have everything you need that you can get from fruit! Would be a bummer though because fruit is yummy!

  • There is such a thing as fructose intolerance. Some people just can't eat fruit. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fructose_malabsorption says it's only stuff that has more fructose than glucose, but I have a friend that just can't eat fruit at all (or claims she can't). Maybe get yourself tested?

  • I eat no bread, rice, potatoes, pasta, cereal. All my carbs come from veggies, fruit, and a little bit of VERY dark chocolate every day :) I eat 100 - 150 grams of carbs a day (that means I eat a LOT of veggies!). Sometimes I go out of my way to put in a few starchy veggies like carrots, turnips, yams, pumpkin to ensure…

  • I'm in the "not everyone is hot" camp. Some people are cute, some are pretty, some are hot. To me, what the majority of people think is "hot" is a particular kind of look. Some people have it naturally, some people can get it if they work really hard, and others just aren't built that way. But for EVERYONE there is someone…

  • This kind of thinking is what causes people to go back to where they started. You are 179!!! That is awesome! You probably look fantastic. Exercise gently, eat healthy, and appreciate where you are. Stop thinking of this journey as a punishment. If I could guarantee you that you would never go back to 250, but you had to…

  • After giving up grains completely, I have been living on green smoothies for breakfast. I've had a lot of luck using my Braun Multiquick stick mixer for these - it probably takes a bit more time than with a super duper blender but I get a straw-drinkable texture with no "chunks". My technique is: 1) A banana or two and a…

  • Honestly, I am finding that going without starchy carbs and sugars is much easier than trying to be "moderate" with them. If you don't eat them, you don't physically crave them. They create a vicious cycle.
