muscle weighs more than fat...are you measuring hips, waist, etc?? The scale is not the only measurement of fat loss. I always have a deficit from exercise but, if I "eat" it, I don't lose any weight....

With canned peaches ( no sugar added, of course) or pineapple or with grape or cherry tomatoes with some pepper

that would depend on what the fee was and how well the other free sites woud work

LOL:)

Wow! Who elected you to the food police! Not everyone who indulges in a pastry is obese. Some people only eat desserts occasionally. Not everyone is overweight or diabetic or whatever. And many pastries are savory rather than sweet.....maybe she'll even create some great low sugar treats. Sugar itself is not inherently…

If you don't need to eat those exercise-earned calories, then don't. You'll be just that much more "ahead of the game" to lose weight. I used to always eat those extra calories but I try not to anymore or , at least, not all of them. But I am on a very calorie-restricted diet after gastric bypass surgery and so eat only…

Some of you seem to be aiming for too low a weight....my goal ( given to me by my medical professionals) is 165

Premeir Protein in chocolate ( the vanilla is too sweet) from Costco. About $1.33 per 11oz carton with 30 g protein , almost no sugar and only 160 calories. Also use Bioplex unflavored whey isolate for mixing into yogurt or sugar-free pudding, etc.

I agree that we usually underestimate our calories eaten and overestimate our exercise calories burned so I just considered those "extra" calories as a bonus toward your weight loss goal. On the rare days when I do eat all my calories, including the ones earned with exercise, I don't stress over it but I do get greater…

You are arty and creative and like to exercise alone...what about dance?? Dance videos or dance-type video game??

Seafood!! I live where fresh seafood abounds and I hate it all!

waist, not waste

because my health is getting scary....don't wanna die! And surgeon won't do knee replacement until I take off some weight

Depends on the day...if I'm really hungry or ate high calorie foods ( likely if I go out to a restaurant) then I use all my calories, other wise I don't eat my exercise calories and generally don't eat all my calories anyway because I'm on a pretty high calorie limit because of my current weight so, if I eat healthy, I can…

Seriously, if you haven't told this loser to kiss your *kitten* buhbye by now, then you will deserve the misery this jerk will put you thru ....better men are out there ..my daughter got married at 42 and size 28 to a (younger) man who thinks she is sexy and awesome as she is but supports her in her desire to get healthier…

Cold turkey but I prepared for it , physically and mentally beforehand. I choose a "quit date" and started cutting down before that date. First I stopped smoking in my ( new) car because I didn't want my new ride to stink!:) Then I stopped smoking in my living room and removed all the ashtrays in the house except in my…

the Bloomin' onion from Outback

raspberry cream cheese frosted brownies from QFC grocery

certainly helps me...I've just started a couple of weeks ago so this helps me realize just how many calories are in the choices I was making before so I am making better choices now

the "bad" food would be 2 giant chocolate chunk bakery-style cookies with hundreds of calories in each...you're doing fine tho you'd likely be better off using those 160 calories on a high-fiber protein bar to start your day off right...just a thought:):)

You are effectively STOPPING your metabolism from helping you lose weight by putting your body into "starvation" mode...you cannot lose those last few pounds at such a low calorie intake because you have shut down your metabolism and your body is hoarding every calorie it can get. You must add some healthy protein…

I'm mostly a red wine gal..especially merlot, shiraz, syrah, and pinot noir. In whites, i enjoy pinot gris and pinot prigio and well as sauvion(sp) blanc..not much for chards . Like my champagne brut. I'm also frugal ( read:cheap) and I like the Charles Shaw reds from Trader Joe's for value. i also love Grocery Outlet for…

Oh, right...I didn't think of that..LOL

None...not into paying someone to hurt me:) Besides, when you get old, the tatoo may not be where it started out!
