I want to do this too, I have tried 2 times already and was not successful. I have a really stressful job, I think this lends to some of the explosive weight gain over the last 2 years.....but being able to eat at my desk has been taken away....heck being able to move from my desk will be taken soon!! (joke) Anyway I am…

Thank you for the encouragement.....I need all I can get. Can I add you and see your food diary? I have my goals here set to 60% Protein, 10% carbs and 30% fat....did or do you use this option here?

I needed to read this today...I and 7 yrs out and today I stepped on the scale and have regained 61 pounds!! I know what I have done wrong and I tried to regroup at he 40 pound regain and I dropped nothing. Not sure what to do from here; get off night shift might help!!

Love love love avacado.....put in the ninja w/ tad of EVOO and a lil garlic...makes the best pita/ bread spread ever!!

Send me your recipe!!

I am really glad that you posted this. I LOVE weights.....and with my foot issues I have I can still do weights. I do sit at a desk all day then get home late so I will still need the cardio but I can do the stationary bike and the eliptical w/o hurting my foot...the treadmill for me is a no go. I have about 2 wks left…

Since January I have been losing the same 6 pounds. I started 262, went down 260, back up to 262, down 256, up to 258, down 255........so from Jan to present I have lost total of 6 pounds multiple times.

I am at where you started!! OMG you look great...HOW!! Im fighting everyday and feel like I am running in oil!!

ANYONE feel free to add me.....I am 40, married, 1 step-child.....been battling weight all my life and it was hard before but OMG now it feels impossible somedays.

I feel your pain w/ the water...I have to play mind tricks all day long. I wake up and have 8oz before anything else. Then I will have coffee, breakfast and I have a 24oz jug at work....I don't allow myself to eat or drink anything else until that water is gone. Then I have lunch, diet soda or a "flavored" water and I do…

I work 11hr shifts w/ 1 hr lunch break.....I eat all my food at work. I make it easy...2 protein, 2 fruit and 2 veggies. I drink water and 1 diet soda at work. I use fresh veg/fruit and bag salad. I use my last off day for the week to sort everything except the salad. I make a soup or casserole of some kind that will be…

I get a glass of water and do something different...like read a book....play fetch with the dog...its head hunger....divert!!!

Chicken Tacos w/ homeade salsa For the meat I take chicken breast and dice it, cook in a dry pan and use low sodium taco seasoning In my ninja i use white onion, jalapeno pepper w/ some seeds for bite, lots of cilantro, garlic, and cumin. I add in 1 can no salt added tomatoes and pulse. Serve the taco meat on a bed of…

I have been juicing too but idk how to count the calories for it...any suggestions?

I am interest in getting the Fit Bit bracelet that is coming soon......It seems a little more hi tech than just a pedometer. I will be watching the post to see what others think.

My husband has steadily gained weight since he got out of the Navy. None of his clothes fit anymore and when I tell he he tells me I am wrong. He drinks coffee from dawn to dark he skips all meals until 7pm then eats until 11. I have pointed out his ways nicely, not so nicely and still I get nothing. I would like to say he…

Dump him and move on, you are worth more than this and you know it.

Just sent you a friend request.....I too have those fluctuations....today I was 260 and Tuesday I think it was I was 254. IDK what it is either I am still trying to figure that out. I went and briefly looked at your diary and noticed that you don't track sugar. There are hidden sugars in a lot of things and you may want to…

WOW......I am going to print your story and post it by my fridge!! If I could get the lil voice in my head to shut up and stop taking over......

I am in Virginia and sadly my weight loss surgery clinic has gotten so big and successful they forgot to incorporate care for anyone over 3-4 years out. So I am on my own......I use a variety of protein shakes, I get the ones w/ least sugar and fat. I love CLICK, coffee infused...it is so delish. My main issue is lack of…

A day in the life: 7am- Click Mocha protein shake made w/ FF Milk and Water - Coffee w/ ID creamer...honestly 1 serving of 2 tbsp. 10am- 2 cups salad w/ julienne ham, 2 hard boiled eggs w/o yolk, Light ranch 130pm- Soup, todays soup is homeade chili made w/ 93% lean beef, light and dark kidney beans, no salt added can…

My pouch seems to hate Tuna....idk why! Tuna, brocoli and carrots I still have issues with. But this gave me a idea......the lil frozen cocktail shrimp. By the time I am ready to eat them they have thawed....so far so good. Thank you!

I can so totally relate here.....starting weigh was 336, lowest after surgery 210, current 256. I want to know how the heck you lost 10 pounds that quick! I sit at my desk at work w/ a 64oz water jug and a straw not allowing myself to eat or snack until half of it is gone!

You can go in and manually adjust the Protein/ Fat/ Carbs based on percentages. I have the same question too....I was taught after surgery protein first carbs last and MFP has me at 213 carbs a day and only 58 protein, to me this is insane! So I made an adjustment to 116 carbs a day, 34 fat making protein 194.....we will…

I was thinking of getting a FitBit myself, waiting on the bracelet one that supposed to come out soon. My starting weight was 336, lowest 210, current 252. I had a ACL replaced and still have issues but I know exactly what you mean about those cookies. Why cant I have 1 and be done...once I have 1 I go into the craving…

MFP has me aiming for 1550! I am always under.

I have been in your shoes more than I care to count....I had the GBS in 2007 and I dropped 126lbs.....the worst thing I did was think I had control. I went from little cheats once a week to daily...went through a ACL replacement in my knee and up 50 pounds in 2 years. I am disgusted with myself! I do fairly well with…

i live in Norfolk, work in Chesapeake and joined the PF on Little Creek....sad to say I have been 1 time!
