For those who eat out at restaurants at a higher frequency, how do you manage that while trying to lose weight? Every time I try to have balance on a deficit by eating out, I find I gain weight (and I don't mean just water weight), even if I only go out 1-2 times a month. It's caused me some anxiety because unless a…

Ah shoot, we don't have those in T-Town, but thank you for responding!

Where did you find these if you don't mind my asking?

Wow! Thanks so much for your very informative response! I'm going to look at the stickies and the other "experts" thread you recommended! I'm also going to learn what hypertrophy is lol that is the first time I've heard that term. Thanks again!

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond, and help a girl out!!! I'll take a look at those stickies and get better informed so I can best meet my goals :)

Oh wow!!! That calculator is AWESOME ; SO user friendly! Thank you so much for providing me that; I'm happy to see the numbers all aligned :) So, have I been using the wrong BMI calculator? I thought I was currently at a normal BMI at 5 feet 7 Inches and 135 lb, and that I would still be at 125 lbs. I definitely do NOT…

Hi Everyone. I sure hope its ok for me to post this question here. I tried to post it on the regular forum, and only got one sole response :( So, after having gained some weight, I've decided I need to get back on the wagon rather than wallow in self pity and reach for the junk food lol . Second to the vanity, I'm on new…

Thanks for the feedback! The thing is, I've been doing TDEE with success for the past 2 years, or just about. I had started out with the lighter activity, and dropped the weight. However, this year, my weight loss seems to be stalling, and I find I'm even gaining a bit. I'm a creature of habit so haven't changed much…

Thanks for the responses so far everyone! To clarify, I'm not asking from an MFP standard, I'm asking from a TDEE standpoint. Thanks again!

Thank you!!!! I'll check this weekend, fingers crossed!

Where did you buy it at? I've been looking for sugar free frosting forever it seems

I love the Walden Farms Syrup, chocolate sauce, caramel, and sesame ginger dressing!

I just wanted to drop in and give a "report" as I purchased a couple of yummy new products I learned about courtesy of this thread and you fellow foodies! 1) Enlightened Caramel Oatmeal Cookie....OH. MY. GAH. Stop what you are doing this instance, and run out and get you a couple of pints of this! Everyone is so right.…

I'll be interested to hear your thoughts. I bought all but 4 of the new enlightened pints. So far, I've tried the cold brew coffee, and birthday cake. I enjoyed the coffee flavor, but the birthday cake flavor fell short for me when compared to Halo Top; it had a really artificial taste to me. Both pints were creamy, but I…

I never thought about it like that, but you could be right about it being more prominent the slimmer the person. I just know its super frustrating. It makes me feel like I can't relax the reins every once in a while :(

NOOOOO Peanut Butter is my FAVORITE!!!! Take away a different flavor, like Chocolate Almond Crunch aka Amaretto...Just Armaretto :/

Oh! I'm 28, soon to be 29 on the 22nd of December :)

I'm 5' 7" and currently 133 lbs. I wear a US size 0 or 2 depending on the store, and mostly XS in tops and dresses. I'm at a deficit eating 1740 calories a day, and do HIIT 3-5 times a week. I'm actually pretty happy with where I'm at but am vain and would love to see my weight in the 120's lol. I never thought I would be…

So, I completed my mission of trying all the new halo top flavors having polished off a pint of chocolate almond crunch, and smore's this weekend. The chocolate almond crunch had a very strong amaretto flavor; something I was NOT expecting and not a huge fan of. The ratio of almonds to ice cream was delightful, but I would…

If you like salted caramel in general, I think you will really enjoy this! It was the first of the new flavors I tried and still one of my favorites. Very creamy, and balanced - Enjoy!

Soooo over the past several days, I've tried 4 additional new halo top flavors. Since I've shared my impressions of the other new flavors, I feel like I need to commit and review every new flavor :blush: Ok, starting with Oatmeal Cookie. The base of this was VERY good. I would say rather than oatmeal, it tastes like the…

Tried the new halo top flavor I've been wanting to try the most last night: Peanut Butter Cup. The Peanut Butter Cup base was on point -tasted exactly as you would expect. As much as it breaks my heart, I have to say I was a little disappointed by this flavor. I feel like there should have been more PB swirls to balance…

Talenti is really good as well, but I personally can't portion control with Talenti lol with halo top I feel very satisfied being able to eat the whole pint if I want to at 240-360 calories. Plus the protein def satiates me!

Your welcome! I would def recommend you try it! I actually caught myself craving it yesterday, so once I go through all the flavors I bought, looks like I need to repeat buy the pistachio

So, continuing on in my adventure of trying all the new halo top flavors, I tried the red velvet last night. This is the first new flavor with chunks that I have tried. Now, I have to say, I'm not the worlds biggest red velvet fan, but I did really enjoy this. I liked that despite not having a cream cheese frosting swirl,…

Forgot to add I had tried the Salted Caramel Sunday (lucked out and found it a day early to the 10/10 release while grocery shopping). This was VERY good. I found the ratio of ice cream to caramel ribbons to be perfect, and the salty to sweet blend was ON POINT! Very creamy, and I have no regrets buying 2 of this…

Was able to find a Fry's that had all of the new Halo Top Flavors! Tried Pistachio last night...As someone who isn't a fan of pistachio ice cream in general, I'm really surprised how much I loved it! The pistachio wasn't over whelming at all. It kind of reminded me of green tea ice cream but with a sweet/salty hint. It was…

I've been going since March of this year, and steadily all of my friends have joined as well. I go 3-4 times a week, and my body has changed for the better! I love it - perfect for a former cardio freak like me because I get a mix of cardio and strength training. My recommendation? Try it out, and see how you like it. The…

thank you SO much!!!

Do you have a recipe for these protein cakes? sounds like something I def need to try!
