  • I lost a bunch of weight very quickly and met up with a friend who hadn't seen me since the weight loss. She stood there literally for several minutes laughing because she didn't recognize me. It felt great at first but then she told me she was shocked because she didn't recognize me. She said it was amazing she could get…

  • Oh and absolutely don't beat yourself up and be discouraged if you go over. Own it and move on. Tomorrow is another day and all that. You can do it!!

  • Hi, Minto. You're in good company. I, too am a serial dieter and have had some horrible results. HCG, Weight Watchers, book diets, you name it, I have done it. I stick to the plan and then get bored or reward myself with the weight loss by pigging out. I am now 40lbs heavier than when I started and something had to change.…

  • I'm definitely making MFP a part of my life for the long term. My sister lost a BUNCH of weight on this site and she looks and feels amazing. She's absolutely my inspiration and she's an MFP lifer, too. I need to take control of my relationship with food, not just lose weight. Being able to continue to track my foods and…

  • Hot tea... with a mini moo. It's low cal so it's not hard to keep in my diet but I used to drink literally 10-15 cups a day so now I have pared it back to just 2. It's been rough but I'd rather spend 200 calories on something filthy like a couple of chocolates than tea. I just drink water when I'm thirsty now.

  • Fruit can be quite calorie heavy, depending on which you choose. I'd stick to the plan. Your numbers are set within healthy levels. Plus, the natural fructose IS still sugar and you'll end up feeling tired and hungry if you overdo it. The acids can also have a really adverse affect on your stomach if you eat large amounts…
