  • What is it any of your business how long she's been dieting. Everyone is different and their bodies react differently. She might have just started however she is correct In the drinking water. It is proven to carve hunger and according to national guidelines you should have 64oz a day so it really should not be your…
  • I'm upset that your hubby would tell you to just give up, however in that case I would try my hardest to prove him wrong. Also it is unfair to make your hubby stop eating the things he loves just because you want to loose weight. You are doing this not him. I have seen some really bad Advise given on here so becareful…
  • I think you are correct in that. I haven't had a c section but I did have emergency oomphorectomy do to a forged ovary and she did the cut that goes side to side. And believe it or not I have a awful pooch that will not go away!
  • Im not sure why everyone is saying it is hard. I have been at 1200 since i started mfp and have never had a problem with it. As long as I measure what I'm eating and eat the correct portion size I'm at 1200 every time. My advise is to measure. Add lots of fruits and veggies and a protien to each meal. Eat well balanced…

  • TO the poster: I hope you are feeling better. we all have our ups and downs. Even I am at my 40 lb weight loss is having a hard time. Push yourself to do better and feel better. I know I do and it helps.
  • I be the first to tell you that I am not a gun lover. If I had it my way I wouldn't have one around. However, after many close calls in a fairly decent neighborhood. I have opted to consider carrying. It is a dangerous world with the need to protect yourself. Guns don't kill people. People kill people and if you are not…
  • I shot Springfield xdm. It's an amazing gun! Very simple to strip. I also have a Glock 17. Not good for concealed. They are bulky. And a sig p250. It would be okay with a shoulder holster but not good on concealed. The sig also has a long trigger pull to it. Our next purchase is a beretta fs foe home and a Springfield xdm…
  • i found this article about BMI. the second to last question on it is a very good explanation as to why its so important to take measuremnts. http://www.life123.com/health/fitness/bmi/healthy-bmi.shtml
  • Your FRUSTRATED over a size 2. OMG I only wish I could be a size 2. REALLY! That acutally frustrates me. TRY size 16 or 18 or 22 Plus.
  • WEll It matters because BMI is Body Mass Index. The less BODY MASS INDEX you have the less BODY FAT YOU have. The less Body Fat you have the leaner and toner you are. HENCE Losing inches. There you go i have now took you down the ladder of why Inches is important so that you dont have to rant over it when people tell you…
  • I would not worry about upsetting the host. Many times my boss brings donuts to work. I don't eat them. They are high in sugar and they spike my blood sugar to much. If you do feel like you should eat take only a bite of something you know is healthy like the cheeses. They are good snacks. But honestly the hostesses / host…

  • My thought is that you are toning everything but the inner thighs. Giving that illusion that your thighs are smaller but the gap is smaller now. I would suggest focussing on you inner thighs to tone them up
  • Don't be afraid of the instructors in martial arts. They ate there to train you and make sure you learn what you are supposed to do. The instructors know how to control there movements and will work to make sur e you don't get hurt as long as they are a good school. I train under a guy who breaks bats with his legs so I…
  • I agree with this. IF you can do moderate exercises on a machine that is a cardio machine IE Eliptical, treadmill for an hour you can do kickboxing. I am a martial artist and even did the jumps and everything at my heaviest 220. IT is very possible to do this. HOWEVER, I want to advise you to go ahead and see you physician…
  • You may have also upped them to much. Generally when you up you up to 1400 which is the next activity level setting. Most people only up by a few hundred not by 500 calories. 1700 may be you maintain calorie range in which case you need to decrease back to about 1400. Since you were at 1200 to loose which I am assuming is…
  • Done. Good luck on your paper
  • Where are you at? If you are state side (USA) then it wont be a problem. You have to go to college to get a degree and once you decide that is your major than they have all the coursework designed to get you fully qualified as a nutritionist. It does help for you to have science in your grades 9-12 but I dont believe it…
  • We all have those days when we go way over our calorie limits, for various reasons. Dont feel defeated. Learn from what you did get up and try again. Sometimes Spike days like that will help you loose weight in the long run. You may gain in the beggining then drop real fast after that. It really depends on your body. I…
  • I pretty much gain equally all over. However when I lost weight, everyone noticed it in my face first. Then the waist and so on.
  • It can be very detrimental to loose weight quickly. the faster you loose weight the harder it is to maintain once you reach goal. Hince the reason why we have so many people bouncing back from diet plans. Loosing weight is also very unhealthy and will eat your muscle not the fat. Muscle is a good thing and if you hate…
  • I went out and looked at your diary, Yesterday was a great day for you. DID you feel full then? you did awesome. The main thing I noticed is on the days that you didnt get enough calories you were drinking alot of different health shakes. I would suggest you stay away from those and just make it a habit to take a good…
  • I actually agree wit you on this regarding the over educated. I often wonder whet would happen if we went to a school system like Germany has. You take a test at the 7th grade level if you pass you go to high school. If you don't you go to trade school. Same at highe school level vs college and college (for the elite is…
  • First of all those with student loans are still paying taxes. Just because their debts are forgiven dont mean they never have to pay taxes. Trust me I had to pay in more than even I had expected this year. 90% of the USA don't understand economics unless they take macro and micro economics in class and even then it's not a…
  • I agree with this. IF you look at the debt forgiveness. as long as you are paying back at least 10% of your income for 10 years then it will be forgiven. IF YOU are not paying that back then it wont be forgiven. You have to pay to have your debt forgiven YES i made the decision did I have any other choice in it. NO. THe…
  • She's right. I went to school, worked a part time job at walmart, and a full time job at an insurance company. AND.. What do you know? I still Have 50,000 in school loans that I pay monthly. To be honest. I would much rather my tax money go to helping people pay for eduction than to help welfare who dont want to get out…
  • Oh. okay. i thought you wrote it snewsome. but still thank you for posting. very informative!
  • after reading several of your posts. Let me ask you one question. Yesterday you added 890 or so calories as a quick add. Per your previous post you said you do this to bring it to 0, Does that mean you did not eat dinner at all? this is what I would suggest. 1. You said you have battled disorders before. My suggestion dont…
