I read the opening of this thread to my husband and his response was "luckily I never ate a 'small' blizzard". LOL! As I sit and reminisce of frozen dairy treats gone by, I realize that we used to end an evening out with a large blizzard (1200cal/50fat). A normal weekend dinner at Outback, which began with a Shared Bloomin…

Good Job! You are starting to plan meals and pay attention to what you are eating! You should be very proud of yourself. Any victory no matter how small is still a victory!!! Yeah you!:drinker: :bigsmile: I don’t know much about the Paleo diet, only caution you about the Chinese - BBQ Pork 3 oz is 240 calories and 13grams…

I am right there with you - You can do this!!! One piece of advice I would give you is make it a point to record you food intake everyday. I have noticed the times when I am diligently recording every scrap I put in my mouth are the weeks I lose the most! When I slack off and am not quite on top of what I ate, it…

So I know nothing about this topic but hearsay and maybee wives tales so I probabaly should not even be posting, but it was just too much fun I couldn't resist, asking my questions too. So I have heard 2 things. 1) It healthy to have stool really smelly because of the trillions of bacteria that are working inside your gut…

Excellent guys! I will be anxious to hear how things go after a week on you calorie bumps! Keep us posted!! My calorie intake has become routine, which has really helped me listen to my body.

I do not follow what MFP sets for me only because I have been working with a Dr. and she set me lower a little lower in calories, fat and carbs. However I found this terrific website that can calculate what you calorie deficit should be from your BMR in order to loose the weight goal you are looking for. There is a built…

Yes, I have heard this too about zig zagging especially if you have to jump start a slow metabolism or hit a plateau. Good thought! Also eating x amount of calories for calorie reduction is really just a guess. Yes we can use tools that can tell us that this is what the avg person with your stats has as a Basal Metabolic…

2-3 hours WOW that is just fantastic!!! Walking is such a great way to get in shape. Many moons ago I was a young professional on my own in the big city of Chicago. During the spring and summer months I walked all over that city, it was just such fun to go on adventures, see beautiful architecture, wander museums and of…

That is actually incorrect. Dr. Atkins does not say no sugar at all. There are natural sugars in the veggies, fruits, nuts, etc and as you move up the carb ladder you add in more natural stuff, which contains natural sugars, so you are only getting sugar from NATURAL sources. [/quote] You are right - I apologize I was…

The flesh is buttery in consistency, much like the prized Toro. A…

I gotta say that was mighty brave calling her on it. :drinker: She absolutely knew what she was doing. :devil: The thing I miss is the social aspect of Office eating. At my office it is always someone’s birthday, which means someone brings in Bagels for breakfast, everyone goes out to lunch and then at 2:45 we have to…

according to the tool on this website your estimated BMR is: 1,495 calories/day* Are you extremely active like a runner? that may explain the large amount of calories.

When I first saw the title of this post I thought blech :P (no offense) But I have recently come to read many amazing things about Kale - apparently a new super food, better than brocolli. So I am willing to try it. From what I remember Kale is very strong and earthy in taste, does the almond milk and mango mask that?

Sugar (any sugar) is a simple carbohydrate like, white flour, and white rice. The body absorbs simple carbs quickly, causing blood sugar to spike and provoking an insulin response that speeds the conversion of calories to fat. This is also why you are hungry so quickly after eating a snickers bar verse a piece of chicken…

Maybe you are being too hard on yourself. You have already lost 35 pounds you are that much closer to you goal than if you hadn't started. So pat yourself on the back and forgive yourself. . Have you thought about Taking a break, maintaining this weight for a coupleof weeks - that is an accomplishment too ! Set a date in…

if you have calories left roday eat a small piece of the cake. (if not you can subtract from tomoorow) You will still be practicing will power by not going overboard and you will get it off your mind which I agree could lead to eating more later because you felt deprived. Good Luck!
