@WinoGelato I LOVE Mahi Mahi! Sunday, I hosted a gender reveal and made jalepeno peppers stuffed with sausage, cream cheese, and cilantro, then topped with shredded mexican cheese and baked in the oven. They're amazing!

Google.

@ninerbuff , I said I like your style, and I still hold to that. :)

Another soda thread? Lemme in!!

You can't accurately weigh a food cooked. It has absorbed water and will be different depending on how long you cook it and how much water is absorbed. Example. 85 grams of pasta may be 1 cup if you cook it aldente, but may be 2 cups of you cook it to mush. Weigh our your portion, and cook it in a separate pot. It's just…

I'm losing weight by eating some of that magical diet whateverthecrapiwanttoeatinacaloriedeficit.

"special diet coffee" doesn't make you lose weight. If you're losing weight, it's cause you're eating at a calorie deficit.

An actual serving of peanut butter, and not what I normally eat. Sad little sandwich thin, it was ;)

Water, sodas, both diet and regular, sweet and unsweetened tea, coffee, alcohol, milk, green tea,

I have taken a scale to CLOSE family get togethers, family members that are aware and supportive of my newfound lifestyle. I know how certain things are prepared, so it's easy for me to weigh it out, create a recipe of their home cooked meal, and log appropriately. No one was insulted. A barbecue or potkuck where everyone…

I think you're beautiful, and you're rocking that suit!! While I do understand we all have our own comfort levels and goals, if it was me, I'd go ahead and get it; you're stunning! Congrats on a successful journey!

Powdered peanut butter. Not as rich as the good stiff, but 45 calories for two tablespoons mixed with water, and 7 grams protein. I think it's very tasty! Next to the nut butters in almost any grocery store. :)

I have a serious question, and I'm not dogging anyone, because I know some people's stats require it but....why is 1200 calories the magic calorie amount? I'd love to be dropping 2+ a week, but when I set it at 2 lbs, and it gave me 1300 calories, I said heck naw and changed to 1.5 loss a week, lol.

Hosted the best friends gender reveal. I made sausage and cream cheese stuffed jalepenos, sandwiches, a cheese tray, and punch. There was sausage balls, cakes, ice creams, casseroles, chips and dip, and chicken salad wraps, and a veggie tray. I decided I wasn't gonna think about how much I was eating. Just gonna celebrate…

In a month, I've lost right at 11. A tad more than 2 per week average. I do know some of it is water weight, and there's also fluctuations due to time of month and whatnot. I'm set at 1.5 a week. I'm big enough I could easily set it at 2, and potentially lose quicker, but I'm happy with how I'm going now. Heck, some days,…

Most of us here will not recommend losing more than. We per week unless you're under the supervision of a medical professional. What are your stats? And how much are you looking to lose total?

Weight loss is= eating less calories than your body Burns There's no such thing as starvation mode that most people preach about.

If you want chips with your sandwich, eat chips, as long as it falls in to your calories allotment. I had doritos yesterday. Quite a bit of doritos.

Breakfast 1 serving of plain Greek yogurt, .5-1 serving of honeu, and chop up blackberry and mix it together. About 200 calories. Cottage cheese mixed with PB2. 120 calories. Dunkin donuts ham egg and cheese wake up wrap. 170 calories. Beef jerky and cheddar cheese cubes. 210 calories. Lunch: 1 can tuna, 1 tsp full flavor…

I'll tell ya how much cheese it is Not enough :/

A 6 ounce can of tuna isn't always six ounces. And 1/2 cup of berries could be very different each time...

If something messed with my stomach like that, I wouldn't drink it. Unless it's Jack Daniels. I have no problem getting whiskey craps afterwards. LOL

I definitely need to work on my fiber intake

As stupid as this sounds, I'm interested in Chia because I've seen them in yogurt and it makes it look pretty LOL. Thanks for the suggestions, guys, I'm gonna look into to getting some of these. :)

Plain chobani yogurt, a teaspoon of honey, 5 blackberries chopped and mix it all together. Oh, and my iced coffee from dunkin with whole milk and sugar. Under 300 calories!

YOu do not lose weight from eating two few calories. That's not how science works. You're probably eating too much. Are you weighing all your food?

What are your stats?

Overnight oats is a texture thing for me :/

I think it's okay to snack, so long as you're hitting your macros. I work a lot of hours in a jail infirmary, so I often don't have time for a proper meal, and I will graze some days. I'm at an advantage from you though, I have fridge and microwave access. Sucks there's no fridge or gym, but kudos on the walking. It's so…

I'd get a cooler then. More control over your calorie intake than eating restaurants 3-4 times a day, and cheaper.
