I do! I eat zero added sugar and also *only* get my carbs from those natural in veg or nuts. And some dairy. (<<I have to live this way, so I think it actually makes it easier). Eating zero of: grains, rice, fruits, starch and other types of veg, any level of sugar or preservative, etc., I *still* average ~50 daily carbs.…

Take the simplest approach possible: remind yourself daily that you don't get to redo your ONE life. Works for me for absolutely everything

Go for it!! I'm going for my 8th grade weight currently.

Also don't look at my profile ;) ha!

Dont look at my profile then ;)

Dude/ette it sounds like Atkins...which is not a bad thing :)

I have a reminder set daily in my phone that says "it doesn't matter if you eat or don't eat :) :) " this is saying that I feel the same whether I eat unnecessarily or not, so I just let it ride..food doesn't fix anything in the mind!

Well, skinny is the actual minority in the USA, with a great percentage of the population being overweight or obese. So being "thin" or "skinny" tends to look weird to us, heavy to healthier countries. This is *a* reason smaller people are sometimes viewed as "emaciated". And yes, healthy correlates with normal weight. A…

motivation is through success....sounds simple, but very, very, very true

hello! I log 1/2 of total minutes spent on the court, from when I set foot on it to the moment I leave.

Yeah, thank you! To call people "rude" with personal and/or medical experience with thyroid issues is asinine. I gained right around the same, 30-40 lbs. "Post #s": meaning, if TSH is up there, 5,6,7,8, 9, 10, whatever, that person WILL HAVE A PROBLEM LOSING WEIGHT. It's science. Mockery? I've had a busted thyroid for many…

The generic "palm" rule always works for me, without a scale. palm-size of meat = ~4 oz :) It's not much to get to 4 oz. I know! I also notice I can eat seafood and vegetable in abundance, without oil/butter of course. I throw on a lot of seasoning. Also, must log the seasoning...e.g. taco seasoning is 10 cals/tsp.,…

even if you're miscalculating, I doubt it's by half. have thyroid checked ever? report tsh #s back here if so!

Damn dude! Mind if I steal this and use it for life?! Did you make it up? I love it!!

You totally got it man :love:

Good post :)

Everyone will settle into what works for them. This is one tried-and-true idea of infinite available options. Please don't allow default reactions in life to be oppositional...that's also not healthy :) no one is the same, and yes, the population overall eats too much sugar. And sorry I cannot input on your micros and…

The post is centered on modification.

Putting calorie amounts + volume in perspective :)
-
Yes. It's a campaign of mine and shouldn't detriment the validity of the posts!
-
For sure. I actually don't use it either, but no longer stress over its occurrence in foods.
-
You are great ;)

Sweeeeet!

Very true for many! :) this post is for those that feel restricted and seek daily satisfaction in a similar way to me; I assume some are out there.

It's a preference to motivate those struggling with dieting. My statements are positive and others-focused and I wish for a healthy country.

I'd prefer support over debate so that some people can benefit! I've been through it all and I think the 1st sentence of this post has the potential to be strong to some crowd; if I can help even 1 person, I'm happy.
