Sounds great! Thanks for sharing

Hi all! I'm 5'3 192 and looking to go down to around 145-155ish. Anyone can feel free to add me. I log every day and try to encourage all my friends.

Welcome to the community! I'm semi-new here as well so please feel free to add me as a friend. This is a wonderful and supportive group for those of us that need motivation to stay the course. Here's wishing you the best.

You are right. My mindset is stuck on "diet foods" I suppose because I have strictly limited myself to pretty much one serving of bread per day and no pasta....like ever because I'm thinking about the carbs instead of the calories. Thanks for putting me on a different path.

Thanks for the great info!

Thanks for the advice. I actually just guzzled a protein shake with milk trying to boost my calorie intake. Now I'm headed off to the store to get some apples and whatever other fruit I can munch on to get those calories up.

I currently use measuring cups and spoons. Thanks for the info. I'll check it out.

Thanks AliceDark. I really do strive to meet that 1200 base goal but it's really rough sometimes. My main problem is those exercise calories. I usually burn like 600 calories at the gym (more I'm sure if you include strength training) but eating all of those calories back is a challenge.

Oh now nuts, bananas, and rice I can definitely do! Thanks a bunch

I don't eat anything that requires loads of butter...lol... but thanks for the advice. And I'm trying to be as accurate as I can so I do measure every single thing now.
