I think she was trying to use some hate tactics to keep those jeans!

Agree with prior replies, with take home points to be reiterated: 1. Low-carb diets force folks to eat more veggies and lean protein which probably end up being lower total calories. In adhering to my calorie target, I found that my satiety is more tied to volume (my stomach's stretch receptors) than chemical balance…

I drive 2 hours to do my Trader Joe's shopping! --Uncured Turkey Bacon--nice and thick, you'll never consider Louis Rich or Butterball again. Applegate Farms brand is comparable, but generally $1 more per pkg --Country Choice OrgainicMulti-grain hot cereal--Since it is not a TJ brand, I've seen it in other places. I like…

I think once or twice per week is plenty enough to get a nice trend going without freaking out about small fluctuations…esp for a woman--that menstrual cycle is no joke when it comes to water weight gain. So unless you have heart failure and you are tracking your fluid status I think once weekly is plenty. Put your scale…

My nutritionist said to count any "non-caloric" beverage--so unsweetened tea, coffee. I agree with adding any calories from juice and sweeteners to the diary…calories in/calories out! And anyone who has suddenly increased their water intake knows water is a diuretic…much more so for me than coffee (as a 2 cup a day girl)!!
