About a third of women gain weight, a third lose weight and a third stay the same... for Mirena and other birth control like the pill. I worked at a birth control clinic and I teach sex education. This is a common question.

Do you have a microwave where you stay? When I travel I have made scrambled eggs in a microwave and also oatmeal. Load up on fruit. Home made granola bars....

It is really low... try doing more exercise... also maybe you are logging food wrong? It's been known to happen. You could underestimate yourself and think you are only eating 800 calories when in reality it's more...just a thought...

I had this problem too and I contacted MFP and they told me that they still haven't figured out how to separate natural (fruit) sugar from processed sugars (almost everything else including ketchup!). So, I just watch the portions, and make sure I also add vegetables... yummm I suddenly got a craving for pineapple .... but…

air popped popcorn (no butter) 3 cups. Big veggie smoothie with Greek yogurt (you'll feel good about all the green veggies you are eating) Check your cycle. Craving happen just before. Maybe that's why you just want to eat? Or are you stressed. Sorry, you asked for ideas of what to eat...I got a little carried away. Deep…

Hi and welcome. I don't log all my food or exercise... but I do offer support! Add me if you'd like to support each other. My goals are 16 pounds in 16 weeks (from now until Christmas). But will be happy with 10 lbs by Dec 25. What about you?

I love it too. any brand, really of Greek yogurt. Use it in tuna instead of yogurt, in smoothies, on a baked potato instead of sour cream, on tacos instead of sour cream, and this weird and delicious mix of 3/4 cup of Greek plain yogurt and 1 -2 teaspoons of light peanut butter. Keeps e full for a long time. Add a Muesli…

Wow big difference. Good job

I've found that sometimes the mind takes longer to catch up to the body....we've thought of ourselves as fat for a long time and still think that even though we've lost a lot of weight. Congratulations, by the way on your loss! Also, try on your old clothes and you'll see! Also remember...you are way healthier now!

/Oh another one... instead of spaghetti I have spaghetti squash...easy to bake - cut in half, take seeds out and in overn for 45 min at 350 then scoop out the 'spaghetti stands' and I arrange them on a plate like spaghetti and put (home made) tomato sauce and a bit of parmesan cheese and YUM. And I can have seconds! At…

Plain non fat Greek yogurt for mayo... (not on hamburgers) but in tuna, and egg salad = yumm!

I've had a few pretty bad ones over the years...but one I can think of is , online dating, we finally met for coffee and I ordered a coffee and he ordered juice (it was morning time) and I hadn't even sipped my coffee when he asked 'When you are pregnant I hope you don't plan on drinking coffee...it's very bad for the…

Hi, I was aiming for a healthy BMI...and then read this article... I'd love to hear everyone's opinion on this... it's about an alternative to using a BMI measurement...did you know the BMI was created in 1850??? The part I didn't like about the article is how to measure your waist... perhaps the suggestion was only for…
-
Right, why bother... for plain ol' cornflakes my box says 1 and a 1/4 cup...so better...another one I eat, puffed wheat is one cup, and if I put it in a small bowl it looks full. I also like the mini wheats (lots of sugar, but a nice treat) it tells you one serving is 21 pieces..I love counting the little squares in the…
-
Oh, interesting..I LOVE tablespoon and teaspoon sizes...even for food such as avocados, because that is how I measure stuff... It's much easier in my opinion to just measure one or two tablespoons, of peanut butter, or whatever, than to figure out in grams ....or ounces! I do have a good scale, but measuring out 10 or 20…

This one made me laugh!!!!

Glad to hear you are healthy...healthier... not many can run that distance.... thanks for sharing. And thanks from your wife and kid too!

Glad to hear you had (are having) a happy ending. Inspiring!
-
Good one! ...and throw out the old clothes...
-
When I hit my first (mini) goal I went out and bought a horizontal striped t shirt... (in a medium size I might add....). I LOVE stripes and really truly look awful in them with the extra weight....

Oh how difficult to drive past there twice a day....can you take a different route? I avoid certain places/ street so there's less temptation...

I agree....and you don't even look like you are related from the first photo!!! Well done!!!
-
Eat one plate of food Half of it should be vegetables remember why you are there (to celebrate, not to binge) drink lots of water don't go famished (so don't save all your calories of the day.... ) I find that a small snack, 1 T of peanut butter and half an apple before I arrive to the restaurant helps me be patient and…

This...and going to bed early.... helps! Good luck
