Ditto what BrendaLee and GreenEyedMonster said. So focus more on whole foods instead of the other stuff and don't worry about the sugar that occurs naturally in the whole foods like fruit, veggies, milk. You have to be on the lookout for the artificial and added sugars which again are mostly in the processed stuff. HTH,…

So 10lbs in 21 days, is that right? So that's about 3lbs a week, which is over the recommended 2lbs per week. Are you eating all of your calories like you should be including exercise calories? How drastically did you change your diet? Was it a high sodium before? How are you working out? Hopefully it is just a combination…

The lady who gained the weight back plus more is a sure sign it was a the wrong way to lose weight and she probably did hurt her metabolism with the yo-yo effect. Usually people who quit smoking gain weight if they are not careful, it can take about 4 yrs for the body to regulate that extra weight if the person does not to…

more than likely it's water retention, did you drink enough water yesterday or eat any high sodium foods? It also depends on how often, when and where you weigh yourself. I only weigh myself no more than once a week, first thing in the morning, after I go potty, bare naked, and in my bathroom I keep the scale in the same…

I agree with hdawg and how many servings are in the whole package? If it is only 2 fpr the whole package then after it is cooked just cut it in half and it should be fine. HTH Demetria

what are you asking exactly? And remember our bodies do need sugar to some extent just like fat, so as long as it is from natural sources like fruits, veggies, milk then don't worry about it so much. For all of the other foods I say look at the ingredients list for the added sugar that the manufacturers put in; high…

Eat oranges instead, there's more fiber and other nutrients you can benefit from! Demetria

All fruit is good and the sugar in fruit is fine for you. It is the processed, added, artificial sugar put into other foods that you have to worry about. What exactly is concerning you regarding the amount of sugar? Demetria

Unfortunately, the food log doesn't differentiate between natural sugar and added sugar. So naturally you are going to go over the alloted amount. Just minus all of the natural sugar that comes from fruits, veggies, milk and look at your food label's ingredient list to see if any type of sugar i.e. high fructose corn syrup…

The site calculates the right ratio of carbs, prot and fat for you to lose weight, it looks like you are trying to go high protein. I would suggest you go back and let the website recalculate your numbers. 33grams of fat is less than 30 percent of 1200 calories, the trick is to not go over 30 percent of your total calories…

Yes, peanut butter is high fat but it is also loaded with protein. And as long as you have it in moderation your fine and don't go over your daily limit on your fat grams. Nutella is a different story like the other posters have commented. But if you want a little bit now and then, again moderation is the key not…

You can choose to have your food diary private (noone can see it) or public (others can view it)

My husband and I are both Mexican so we grew up eating every meal with tortillas, homemade with lard, refried beans and spanish rice. It took forever to get my hubby to stop having tortillas with every meal, we would use them as forks to pick up our food, how bad is that! I stopped making refried beans dozens of years ago…

The claims they make are outrageous so I just laugh and ignore them. They are totally the wrong ads to have for this website, too. They couldn't have found something else that has nothing to do with losing weight to have ads for? odd & funny Demetria

yeah, veggies are very low in calories, so people who eat alot of veggies usually end up in the low end. How are u doing with protein and fat? You might need to increase in one or both of those areas. I tend to not eat enough fat, I don't even make it to 30%, so I have to purposely eat peanut butter with an apple for a…

Again, you do not need to lose anymore weight. The sagging skin is due to gaining and losing weight to quickly. I am not sure if ab exercises will work but they can't hurt either. I would talk to your doctor about what is available for you to get rid of the excess skin. hth Demetria
