Lettuce Burger and Sweet potato fries. YUMMY

lmao!!!

Yes!!! I have been making some of the best salads lately!! see below Buffalo Blue Tyson Crispy buffalo strips (bake them as opposed to frying to save calories; but can use grilled chicken breast) tossed in buffalo sauce blue cheese crumbles egg diced tomato lettuce red onion (makes any salad go crazy) ranch dressing bacon…

Chipotle!!!! Chicken shredded lettuce pico cheese hot salsa sour cream more shredded lettuce yum!!! about 400 calories and 6 carbs

yes!! I have the hardest time with determining if I want to "live life" meaning eat, drink, and be merry or stay strong and stick to my goals. It is definitely an ongoing battle.

i have done low carb and lost weight! however the kicker is to make sure that you stick with it and do not give into binges because they go bad really fast. I already don't eat carbs like potatoes, bread, or rice and sugary things however my biggest issue came from eating pizza on the weekend which lead me back down a…

GNC Total Lean Shakes.

me too!!!

and your childish.

agree. This will definitely be a lifestly change however I don't see myself logging forever. I will begin to log again if I see my weight go up ten lbs or more. But I plan to use this as a tool only in the first few weeks/months to get healthy patterns going.

Seems relevant, your complaint is you don't want it to be time consuming. He said it's not time consuming. Or at least it's as time consuming as you want it to be. [/quote] I didn't say logging specifically was time consuming. I meant the whole aspect of it "dieting"

Thanks for explaining this way!! this made a lot of sense to me.

It literally takes up 1 to 2 minutes of my day to log my foods... there is 1440 minutes in a day. [/quote] This is irrelevant to what I am asking. thanks tho.

This! thank you! I think I want to not so much focus on losing weight as I want to focus on making better choices and working out consistently.

Maybe not for YOU.

wow. sounds intense.

I have taken them before and they worked great while you are on them. No appetite and extreme energy. I did have trouble sleeping at night and a jittery feeling in the first few days. I lost weight quickly and effortlessly (I did work out) however as soon as I stopped taking the pills I gained all the weight back plus…

yes!!!

i agree. Liquor is what made me pile on weight as well. Drinking heavily leads to eating heavily. do it in moderation and make sure you log it so that it fits.

I have taken it several times before in the past and it is just not worth it. it does work and you do lose the weight quick and you feel great however you pile it right back on when you stop taking them. Each time I went off of them my appetite was RAVENOUS. Literally. Now here I am bigger than I have ever been before. I…

Bacon and Eggs!

Ive tried carb cyclying! big diasaster! once I have too many carbs I have to have more and more and more and more. I need to stay under and then gradually bring them back up.

Thanks everybody! Yes. im pretty low in the carb area no more than 50 g per day. Maybe ill try strawberries and maybe either pineapples, or watermelon. but not both. We are cooking out at my house and I need something to keep me away from a week ruining binge.

I have this same issue.! its all about self control and making better decisions for yourself! junk food and crap will be everywhere and always available. Its all about moderation and choices. :)

I do the EXACT same thing!!!

I love Low carb! Only way I will lose weight!

bump

I love low carb! most foods that are low carb are low calories as well. I Feel like with low carb I can snack alot on cut up sausages, and things of that nature.

While that is tactfully put I dont really like the idea for othe things such as birthday parties or housewarmings or things like that but I do think that its OK for a wedding. Personally I like to get gifts. I have money to buy myself things but I never do! getting money as a gift I will most likely spend it on my daughter…
