start 275 currently 227. i eat only about 1200 calories a day. i know that is pretty low but i'm still losing weight and i haven't been hungry. chicken,eggs,romaine,broccoli. No soda or sweet drinks at all. just water. I walk a lot also,but for me it's been more about eating less than exercising to lose the weight. I'm…

46lbs total from march 7th 2012

I'm from philly.

275 was mine. Ihad to take my daughters to father/daughter dance at school. I had to buy a bigger dress shirt and pants. That made me feel like crud. i'm down to 235 now. I'm still going because it feels so much better now.

i record my food everyday and i keep to same food plan. I have to give all of my energy to stay on track to get to my goal shape. Glad to say i don't have cheat days. It's just something i need to do right now. If i start eating the junk i was eating, then i know it will be easy to put the weight back on. I like the way i…

I'm not sure about the "starvation mode" thing. I have been under my calorie goal everyday for 2 months. I'm still losing weight. I slowed down a little bit. Maybe a 2 week period where i didn't lose as much, but now I'm losing at a quicker pace. The only advice i can give is what works and what doesn't work for me. I have…

my name is joe sabato. It is an italian last name. My father was part italian. My mfp name is from my mother. She was mexican. When i started working at my job in1989, an older guy heard i was part mexican and called me mad mex. My best friend was already calling me mex as a nickname.

It is so hard to change the mindset of less calories in. I'm still under my calorie goal everyday. Still losing. I will wait until i stop losing to change the way i do it. It seems obvious that everybody loses the weight different. Whatever weight loss method you use, when it works, stick with it. If it stops working,…

i throw frozen breast in slow cooker and cover with my homemade salsa. let it cook couple hours. when almost done. i throw my veggies in. mostly broccoli. mix with juices and salsa. awesome.

i bought frozen tenderloins once. they were fine,but for the price, i found buying fresh in the supermarket was about same price when a good sale was on. Then i buy a bunch and freeze them. All i eat is chicken, so doing this really helps

I've worked on the steets of philly doing repair work underground for a utility for 22 years. I'm 6'0". I felt more comfortable in my lower weight than i did when i was heavy. I felt stronger and that made me feel better about myself. I have never started a fight in my life. I've been in some, barroom stuff. Also don't…

I'm a rock guy from 80's. I listen to motley crue, Iron maiden, stuff like that 4 working out. Not crazy heavy music but stuff that isn't pop music. My daughters did put some of their music on my ipod and have to admit i do like katy perry and Gaga. What happened to me?

All i eat is chicken, tuna, and i snack on string cheese. All protein. Very lean. No carbs.

I always felt that it is the guy who pays for the first date. Also the other dates until u get into a comfortable place with the girl.

U can use those calories whenever u want. If u burn the calories during exercise, they r gone. U don't lose that work u did. 3500 cal in a pound. If u have a deficit then u lose the weight. good job.

A lot of things made me decide i had enough. I was heavier than i ever had been in my life. Felt like crud. Looked the same. I took my daughters to the school father/daughter dance and had to buy bigger dress shirt and pants. My youngest just had a communion party and i felt so much better back in clothes i hadn't worn for…

Would this recipe work with pinto beans? I like black beans but i love pinto beans.

I'm all in on this recipe. Sounds real good.

It really is ok. Losing weight to me has been having my head into it more than anything else. One day doesn't mess it all up. Keep working hard. Good luck

That sounds real good. I live on chicken breast now. Love new chicken recipes and the slow cooker is great tool. thanks for this. My usual meal is chicken breast in slow cooker with my homemade salsa on top. It tastes great but getting bored with it. thanks for recipe

good luck. i started at 275. down to 238 in 2months. I was always my fittest at around 215lbs. I work in construction/labor. So that weight was good for my strength. But the extra weight made me feel and look lousy. Add me as a friend, i look forward to seeing the progress. I'm a guy from philly. Little far from Vegas. Add…

having the support on this site is important. Add me as a friend. good luck

add me as a friend. good luck.

hey good luck. add me as a friend. i'm looking for some of same things.

Love asparagus.

I had my everyday meal. A chicken breast cooked with my homemade salsa on top slow cooked. Very tasty. So high in protein. Low fat.

i tried nonfat milk. tastes terrible. if you are cutting calories in your diet throughout the day, reg creamer is fine. But i did cut out the sugar and now use splenda.
