Hi I am going to be 40 on Feb 22 and I am 5'5 205 looking to lose 65 lbs. I have also been eating clean or paleo. I joined Orangetheory in October but was lazy over the holidays and I started over on Jan 6th I have lost 7 lbs since the weight loss challenge started Jan 15th! I am also looking for friends to share tip and…

Age 38 Height 5'5 Gender: Female Highest weight- 234 lbs (after giving birth weighed more than I did pregnant) Current Weight- 203 lbs Lowest weight- 130 lbs (in high school) Goal weight- 140 lbs (or just below 25 BMI)

I feel bad, sorry I always hate to be the bearer of bad news. I saw a reference that listed the wine for 23cal for 1 oz. So I assume it was entered wrong in MFP as 23 cal for 4 oz instead of 1 oz. :(

Find any that is 11% ABV it measures in at about 17.6 cal per ounce

I was intrigued because I also love to play music cook and sip the vino. I know that alcohol content is directly related to calories, so if they reduce the calories, they have to reduce the alcohol content, like they do with low cal beers. in general a 13% red wine will have 20 cal per ounce. Skinnygirl wines are actually…

Is this a special low calorie version of their regular Chianti? ? I am only finding info stating that Carlo Rossi Chianti has 100 cal per 4 oz

I love my under armour capris they are super thick and hold everything in. The waistband folds over for extra support or you can keep it high waisted to hold your upper belly too.

I highly recommend the Under Armour Endure high impact bra. They don't move when I run and I am 38DDD.

I had the same experience, it was so embarrassing. So I went to Nordstrom and they measured me at a 36DDD or F. I had gained a lot of weight, though I found out a week later I was pregnant :) but, even when I was D cup Victorias Secret D cup got smaller and smaller...they shifted their sizing smaller so smaller busted…

Have you considered gluten intolerance? Acid reflux can be a symptom of gluten intolerance or sensitivity. They can test you now with an easy blood test for celiac sprue.

I work in GERD research. GERD is caused by a weak lower esophageal sphincter (LES) PPIs are not intended to be taken long term. Over time you will develop tolerance to them so your symptoms return and sometimes worse. Talk to your doctor about your other options besides medications, there are other options. Unfortunately…

I can totally relate! My husband is wonderful and used to do the same. I had to tell him how hard it is for me to resist and that not only not to eat ice cream in front of me but not to buy it and not to LET me eat it. I am finally at a place where I can resist the ice cream but the wine is a whole other story. I try to at…

This would give you a 1400 calorie deficit ...not quite 0.5 lb per day loss. If you log those calories eaten into the BMF activity manager it will calculate your deficit for you...

I was thinking more like Adrian Grenier from Entourage!

Pure water is great, though all fluids count towards water intake if they are not caffeinated. You need to drink an extra serving of water for every caffeinated beverage.

Your urine should be clear if you are hydrated. Drink water in the morning until it is clear, and then you can drink additional water throughout the day to stay hydrated.

You should not be eating less than 1200 calories per day. You have put your body in starvation mode. Your body wants to store all of those calories. Your already slow metabolism will become even slower if you do not give it the energy it needs especially when you are working out, you should eat more calories.

I have a few suggestions: Bacardi diet coke, Vodka and soda water with lime wedge, Captain morgan diet coke, mandarin vodka and soda water with orange slice, dirty martini, red wine is 22 calories per ounce (usual pour is 6 oz) As a general rule, basic liquors like Gin, vodka, rum are going to be the least calories. you…
