  • HCG is a hormone taken from a pregnant woman's urine. It is supposed to loose fat stores in the body. However, the FDA has NOT approved it for weight loss. It is approved ONLY as a fertility drug. I looked into this after my friend, a nurse lost about 30 pounds in 25 days....guess what......she gained EVERY pound of it…

  • Check your nutritional info...high in carbs, low in protein?
    in Why isn't this working? Comment by lilcrittert February 2011
  • You're right.....eating carbs makes you crave them. Try fasting them for a time (at least 2 weeks) and break the addiction. I've been off of refined flours, sugar, and processed food for 35 days. My cravings have gone away, I'm not starving all the time, and I'm losing weight. Everyday becomes more lifestyle than…

  • I don't force myself to eat all of my calorie allotment if I'm not hungry....1200 is a guideline not a commandment. People who have NEVER had to lose a pound may eat 800-900 calories one day and 1600-1800 another day. It depends on what you're actively doing that day. If you sit in front of the tv all day, then your body…

  • It's all about balance. Just because you are eating less carbs doesn't give one the license to eat all the protein you can! (not saying you are of course). I've been on a low carb diet for about a month....BUT I don't eat processed food or refined sugar or flour of ANY kind....it can pack on the weight you know. Eat…

  • I love Ross Dress for Less, TJ Maxx, and Marshalls. Ross Dress for Less is usually the cheapest. I bought a FABULOUS pair of black dress pants with a tiny white pinstripe for $7.00. I also bought a Michael Kors shirt originally priced at $75.00 for $15. The problem with Ross is that you have to shop often and look through…

  • I'm with you....I've lost 20 pounds in about 3 weeks. I eat fruit, fresh veggies, and chicken, fish, and some seafood. I keep my calories in check and I don't eat processed flour, cereals, etc. Adam and Eve didn't have bread, twinkies, and soda.....haven't read where Eve had love handles from eatin' the stuff either!!! So,…
    in HELP-Low Carb vs Counting Calories/Low Fat Comment by lilcrittert January 2011
  • When you eat the same thing everyday or eat within the same number of calories each day, you sometimes have to shock your body by eating at the top end of your calories and then reduce them. For example, if you've been given 1200 calories, eat 1200...not 1100 for a couple of days, then drop back down. Change your exercise…
