Yes, it is me and my husband at the Glaciar Perito Moreno.

Para la persona que pregunta si viven solas, yo vivo con mi marido, cocino para mi y para él lo mismo: - Ensaladas con todo lo que encuentro barato (como mucha más yo que él) - Pechugas de pollo sin hueso, las hago con un poquito de aceite de oliva en la sartén, un día le agrego curry, otro día una combinación de…

Try to eat less carbs. Eat 1200 calories in big bowls of salad (prepare your food at home), add half can of tuna or four slices of ham (140 calories) or one chicken breast (you can put some olive oil at a pan and cook with different spices, like pepper, or blackened power or soja soy...), or half t-bone steak or 4 onzes of…

Hola, soy argentina, vivo en Estados Unidos desde hace 16 años y gracias a MFP pude adelgazar 39 libras y mantenerme desde hace más de un año. Viví en varios países: México, Colombia, Francia y en varios lugares de Argentina. En marzo vuelvo a mi país y estamos muy emocionados con mi esposo de poder regresar. Ya conseguí…

The time to eat is cultural. I eat late because in my culture we eat late. I am from Argentina, and we have dinner at 9 pm or later, and most of the people is not fat. The reason is the people walk a lot. For this reason when I moved to USA, I gained weight, here I do not walk too much, until one year ago when I decide to…

I lost 43 pounds in one year, I am 54 years old, and had thyroid cancer and thyroid removal 6 years ago. If I can, you can! You are so young and it is easy to go to the gym, walk... you live in Chicago, it is a beautiful city to walk (before winter starts!), eat well. It is a lot of people here who share their diary...…

I do not think that 25 calories or less in a sweetener is a big deal, if you enjoy the coffee with the current sweetener continue to using it and cut things with more calories. I love dulce de leche (the real, from my country, Argentina) and I never stop eating dulce de leche, every night I reserve 60 calories to eat a…

I had thyroidectomy in 2006, I gain several pounds, but since September 2010, I started to keep a diary with the food that I eat, and I realized that the problem was what I eat. I lost 40 pounds since 2010 and I feel so good!!

Great job!!! You look great and a new person!

Just before to seat to grade and plan, go to the gym or take a walk... you will feel much better and with energy after exercise. I used to be really sedentary, but last year I changed and feel much much better.

Excellent! I started in September 2010, and already lost 31 pounds. Since I moved to USA i gained 40 pounds in 15 years... now thanks to MFP I lost 31... so a few more and I will be really healthy. So, my advise: login every day all the food that you consume, and exercise and you will see results soon!!

You look great!!! you are an inspiration for all of us!! Wonderful!:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

If you have the IPhone is easier, I am entering all the food and exercise immediately after I get the food, and finish the exercise... and it results! :)

You have to add what you eat and exercises that you are doing and MFP will calculate for you. When I started in September 9, 2010, I had to lose 40 pounds, and I already lost 31 pounds. It is not easy, and I have to be so strict with myself. I eat 1200 calories per day, and, if I exercise 180 minutes per week, I will lose…

My 31 years old was diagnosed with heart murmur when she was seven or eight month old. Immediately, a Pediatric cardiologist saw her and he said that is was nothing dangerous. I was in Argentina, my native country, when it happens... and I was living in a small town, but we can see the cardiologist fast. She is doing well,…

Welcome!

You can find the calories for this meal on the database and use that amount. I also put all the ingredientes, for example if I cook Venezuelan style black beans, I add all the ingredients that I will eat (one cap of black beans, olive oil, cilantro, one slice of bacon, salt, ham 1 oz) You can see my Diary, I have all the…

I love the site, and I am expending a lot of time here... instead of eat! :)

I love it, I started on September 9th, 2010, and I lost 27 pounds. I am doing a lot of exercise and taking the calories that I can take.

You look fantastic!!! Congratulations and keep trying, to reach your goal!!

Thanks for your comment. I did not know that to eat celery is so good, I just eat because I like. I also chopped and mix with tuna, a few sesame seeds, onions, and green apple and prepare a salad with not mayonaisse, as a dressing I am always using olive oil, salt, and balsamic vinegar.

I started my diet with an Iphone app... Myfitnesspal, since I moved to USA, I gained 40 pounds, and whit my fitness pal, I already lost 20. I am entering every food and exercise on my Iphone.

I start every meal eating a big bol of salad (lettuce, spinach, beet greens, tomato, strawberries, pecans (3)) I use the Pyrex bol, the bigger one, at lunch and dinner. Then I add chicken, or ttuna (I love tuna in Olive oil from Traders Joe), or Salmon. I prepared all my food at home. I am professor at the university, and…

Interesting, I usually drink a lot of mate. Mate is an Argentinean tea. When I moved to USA, I stop to drink mate, but now with diet, I am drinking again, and I feel satisfy, and I do not want to eat a lot at lunch or dinner time. Thanks for sharing!

For snacks, I eat fruits, celery, or a yogur. I do not eat crackers or sweets, because once I eat one, I cannot stop.
