  • What's your situation with making food? Are you stuck with a cafeteria meal plan, or do you have your own kitchen?

  • If you're addicted to food, then you've got a more important problem than your weight. Can I suggest the book "Made to Crave?"

  • Awesome - thanks! I figured on my weight dropping a bit when I first donated, but I didn't expect it to stay dropped - I've been pretty bad recently, just started really logging again yesterday.

  • If it's really hard to quit - switching to Diet would be a good first start, but you still don't want to be *that* dependent on caffeine or whatever - maybe try watering it down a little? Go a few days with pouring some of the soda out of the can and replacing it with water, maybe like an 8th of the can? And then a few…

  • I worked through the WebMD calorie calculator, and if it's the same one you referenced, I see a lot of room for variability. WebMD lets you put in five levels of exercise level, while I believe MFP only lets you select between three. MFP's "lightly active" corresponds to WebMD's "not active." WebMD's listed calories per…
