Thanks. The other issue is, my bad cholesterol is good and the good isn't. She told me to limit red meat. I've been doing well, and have even lost 15lbs. The first week or 2 was the hardest. Now if I eat something unhealthy, it makes me sick.

Oh and I don't eat seafood other than the salmon patties.

I'll eat mixed veggies (corn, green beans, carrots (not fond of those really), broccoli (would like some ranch with it) that about covers it.

I had a LOT of blood work done and it's really because of my thyroid antibodies that are triple what they should be. A dietician did go over the test results and I do have an appointment next Wednesday. SEE above Appt with a dietician Wednesday BUT I need to eat before then.

OMG OMG I forgot to log my wt :( Not that its good but ugh!

I just switched back to how myfitnesspal does your calories. OMG it is only 1220 calories! My BMR is more than that when I figure it up by scoobys method. I'll roll with it and see how it goes!

HUG

As someone who works in the medical field (THIS IS NOT MEDICAL ADVICE JUST A FYI)..........IF you drink copious amount of water and don't have balanced electrolytes your body WILL react. I had a patient once for whatever reason drink 1000 cc of water in like a short period of time and crashed on me (of course at the end of…

I just like the meal replacement and the xtra protein. I don't buy all the other stuff. I tend to skip meals and this is very good and easy to fix.

Wt- 188.5 waist- 35.5

As long as you are seeing results in your clothes then you are still doing well. You are building lean muscle so you well see the wt go up some. Don't go so much by the scale.

Hi there! I have had IBS for a while but only in the last 7 years has it actually been diagnosed. I'm in the attack phase right now because 1) I was eating a high protein low carb plan but was eating ALL the stuff I should avoid (didn't know until I looked it all up) 2) I took some fat burner pills that has stuff to avoid…

Week 4- already? Wt- 191lbs waist- 36 - i think I measured 38 to start but put 37....i can't remember but i measured today and it actually was like 35 close to 36.....i googled how to measure correctly today.

Well, I took them for a while a few years back and had results. My ekg came back fine and was all clear. Fast fwd......I know am on heart meds d/t heart palpations which are not considered life threatening but they did stop me in my tracks a lot. I relate it all to taking the drug. It's the long term effects that you…

Yes you are correct there is no can't.......I tell that to my kids all the time! Are you saying to down some oil?

Avocados, ewwwwww!!! Tater tots- Im trying to watch carbs. I use olive oil to cook with. Smoothies, guess I could try them! LOL.

There is no way I can eat 2263 cals or even 1923cals/day. I have a hard time eating 1700 that MFP says. I'm good if I can eat 1200. I can't eat a lot of peanuts or cashews and such as they make me swell.

I was really bad over the weekend. As for fish, I don't like fish in general so for me to actually eat even the frozen breaded kind is saying something. I'm more of a chicken eater but it gets old. I don't like avocado and things of such. I'm what my husband calls a picky eater. I eat green beans, mixed veggies,…

Thanks. I do use some light wts but I have to be careful because I have cervical stenosis and have to start light.

Here are my stats for the formula to get what you should set goal cals. MBF- 43.5% (yup got a lot of fat on me) BMR- 1440 TDEE- 1728 Using the link on here and the chart it gives at the end, it says I should eat 2415 cals/day.
