Thank you. You are probably right. I had been thinking about changing it for some time, though, since with me wanting to lose 73 more pounds, 1.5 lb/week is an acceptable goal, and I just thought maybe now would be a good time to try it. Thank you for your opinion :smile:

This is probably one of the most (if not THE most) helpful things I have ever read on MFP! Thank you so much!

I make sure to weigh all my meat, for sure. How do I know if the information put into MFP is correct? I don't know if there is some way I can double check the accuracy or what? Maybe I'm just ignorant, but I assumed it was correct.

Thank you! I appreciate the reply :smile:

I had my gallbladder removed May 13, 2011. Everyone's eating patterns have to change in their own way. Fatty items are a problem for most, but some can't handle pork, or spicy food, or even lettuce. Personally, I think it is beneficial to try things and see how they sit on your stomach. For quite some time, I felt that…

Congrats! I am 5'5, as well, and started at 270. I now weigh 243. It is nice to see someone of a similar build (although you are now much smaller) having such great success. Great job and good luck on the rest of your journey!

I have a NutriBullet, as well, and love it! It is definitely one of the best investments I have made. My husband and I both love the smoothies and they are an easy way to pack in some good veggie nutrition. I haven't gotten too adventurous with that, but always use 1-2 cups of spinach as the base to my smoothies and you…

I eat fajitas about once a week. I go to a "hole in the wall", as well, but use the closest thing I can find on MFP. Mexican food is absolutely one of my favorite things. I switched from eating chicken fajita nachos weekly to just fajitas, generally only with on tortilla, if any. Enjoy it! As far as restaurant food goes,…

Thanks for all your input! I was put on metformin and recommended a low carb diet. I am trying to finally switch to that low carb diet finally, a year after it was recommended. I am trying to cut down on pasta, bread, potatoes, etc. but keep fruits and veggies with carbs. I quit the metformin because of bathroom issues.…

I do have an insulin resistance issue. About a year ago, my insulin resistance levels were about double what they should be. How is this supposed to effect my weight loss? I have lost 20 pounds in a month and a half.

1. A normal meal for me: - Breakfast, an apple or a smoothie (frozen fruit, spinach, low cal juice) - Lunch, half a ham sandwich with a cheese stick and some fruit - Supper, a generous helping of chicken fajitas (chicken, onion, and peppers) with one or two tortillas and a little sour cream - I often eat carrots for a…

Yes, it says that I should be eating 1880 calories and an online calculator said my BMR is 1930. I am also eating chicken and lean pork chops. I do eat carbs occasionally. Maybe I should include more higher calorie items? I have been trying to avoid them.
