  • hi, don't worry, i ate a big dinner, haha. apparently i guess it wasn't enough to hold me back at dinner. but then yes, i do eat a healthy diet as well as exercise. but yes, i'm just trying the pill out of curiousity. even if i'm not on the pill, i don't eat much at breakfast and lunch. i snack throughout the day usually.
  • I finally purchased Apidexin from Apidexin.com. It delivered real fast. I chose this brand because out of all the site and brand I read about, both experts and consumers voted to be the safest (and of course, safety first) as well as effective. Today was my first day on it. The direction said to take one pill 30 mins to 1…
  • count me in! 15 by xmas and keep it off til new year! =]
  • Thanks! I ordered it earlier this week and it came really fast. Can't wait to start...vacation's coming up though, so maybe after vacation.
  • Oh wow! Awesome! Is there a diet guideline also or is it only exercise?
  • They are also available at some Safeway/Vons store. I bought mine on Amazon.com which waived the shipping since it's over $25! But yes, only the sampler packs though...they don't have flavors like mint chips though. But the sampler packs already give you SO MANY good flavors! I love it. Store them in the freezer and they…
  • Thanks! Yea, I don't eat the pod. I just buy the one with the pod, so that I need to do more work and thus, I'll eat less. Thanks again!
  • I need to hop back onto the wagon too. I haven't been eating right (everything in my way--ice cream esp! since it's been hot lately) and haven't exercising much for a month now, and it really bugs me how I can see the negative changes and weight gain in front the mirror. Like many of you, I was sick of logging in MFP about…
  • Thanks for the tips! And miumiumiu, we have almost the same icon! Most likely! haha. But yes, I have put away my mixed nuts, and I am giving away the unopened ones. I think I'll just have to deal with not eating them. Or if I really want them, I will buy those measure ones by the ounce or something. Hopefully seeing the…
  • Thank you! I started weighing out 1oz portions at first. I also bought the 100 calories pack dry roasted almonds, but yes, they are quite expensive compared to the jar ones. I am going to try to not touch them and just reach for them if I am desperate.
  • I go to the gym with a buddy but I actually find it better when I work out myself. My workout buddy comes to me when I'm working out a lot of times and asked "how long are you going to be on this?" "do you want to do this instead?" "are we leaving soon?"...so it is much easier for me when I workout myself and choose what…
  • Try to stay away from all those sweet & sour, orange, lemon, general chicken or pork. They usually lightly bread those stuff with flour or corn starch, fry them and then put sugar-loaded sauce with it. Most food in Chinese restaurants are loaded with sugar, oil and salt. That's why the food taste so good. I think the…
  • normal daily fiber intake is 25g for adult. don't worry about going over fiber, it's what keeps you full and your digestive system going. worry if you go over carbs, sugar or sodium more though. =)
  • hello! i'm just wondering how does this trader joe's detox work? like can u only eat veggies or what can and cannot eat?
  • Just wonderng, is not having protein after workout okay? Or is it better to have a little after workout?
  • Went to the gym for an hour, burnt about 600 calories. So now I am -300 instead of -900. Felt much better! Ohhh! I didn't know there are whole grain tostitos. I should look for it if I ever crave for chips again! Thanks guys!
  • I love this book! I tried a few of the recipes and they taste great! I also use it as a reference on ideas. I modified some recipes and add in or take out whatever I don't like. The only down side is that some of the ingredients in it are expensive.
  • I totally feel you, especially when I have to go eat at a birthday dinner at a Chinese or Ramen restuarant. Chinese food has a lot of salt and oil. I agree with Fieldsy that it takes 3500 extra cal to gain 1lb. I am guessing that 8lbs are from water weight...since you had so much salt, your body tends to retain water to…
  • Thank you! I think I just need a reminder about me changing life style. Tami--I would definitely try that 3 bites thing if I cannot control it at the moment. SHBoss--I love whole grains! I don't really like rice, but I started on it again and would only eat brown rice. I love wheat products! A little too much at least, I…
  • I LOVE "Hungry Girl Under 200", "YOU on a Diet", "In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto", and "Eat This not That".
  • the tortilla is with all the other regular tortilla. the chocolate is the tricky part. gayle's only have stores in New York, so you have to order them online if you live elsewhere...shipping sucks since they need to keep the products fresh! =(
  • I am so glad I'm not the only one! I crave for breakfast burrito all the time too! Try using "La Tortilla - Low Carb, High Fiber Whole Wheat Tortilla (large)", it only has 80 calories but sodium is about 300mg...but I am sure you minimize some sodium intake for lunch and dinner. La Tortilla also makes a smaller tortilla…
  • I agree with SamiRose that it's a personal preference. I heard that it is better to exercise in the morning because it jumps start your metabolism, and it gives you more energy the rest of the day. For me, I have no time in the morning and so on, so I usually work out after 9pm, after my dinner has digested a bit. I find…
  • I was on it for a month for last year. It was pretty easy to start because it doesn't involve counting calories, and you can snack as much as you want as long as it's not bad carbs. Once you get used to avoiding certain food, you get used to it. I lost about 4-5lbs in phrase 1, and then I started going on the phrase 2. To…
  • umm sounds weird. i would think even natural ingredients like fruits have a lil calories...nevertheless, interesting that they have calories-free products.
  • Don't look at and trust BMI too much. It doesn't take bone density and muscle weight as a measure. You can be tone and weight a lot due to muscles or high bone density. Try looking at body fat % or measure your waistline. Those are better measures.
  • I am so glad you posted this because I was about to post one here about my binge eating at night too! I just started binge eating two weeks ago. I am not sure is it due to stress. I feel like I started doing this when I told myself to eat healthier and limit myself on what I can and cannot eat. Sometimes, I feel like it's…
  • thank you so much! this makes calories counting so much easier, esp with homemade food!
