I think I will... Sounds like a great plan. Thanks! :)

Except that THIS patient is weighing and measuring with diligence. And it has worked... Impressively so. But it's really a drastic change from my norm.

Music to my ears!

I could totally do diet! That would make me super happy, actually, lol. I think I realize I've got major weight to lose and I feel it's going to take major change to make it happen. But maybe I've got it all wrong...

Thanks so much for sharing your experience! Maybe I'm going about this all wrong...

This is my doctor... Telling me I'm morbidly obese and should consume 1200-1300 calories a day max. I need to cut the processed foods, lose the soda, etc. So that's what I've been doing for 8 days now... Though it feels like 80 days! I have 4 beautiful babies! 10, 7, 3 and 1! I homeschool the oldest 3. Between that, play…

This is baffling to me... I can go eat a roll if I want? It truly doesn't matter what I eat as long as I don't go over my limit? Don't the processed, starchy carbs make you gain, not lose? I guess the math makes sense... I'm just not getting how I can eat a slice of pizza or a piece of grilled chicken and a salad and…

Honestly, I don't think the "how much I can have" is what's most bothersome to me... It's the "what I can't have" that's frustrating me the most. I weighed in on 4/25 at 273.8lbs (I'm 5'6"). Followed my doctor's advice to a T and weighed in at 263.0 yesterday, 5/1. Obviously a ton of that's gotta be water weight, but I…

As to cooking separately, told my family if I'm cooking it's my way. Though my family was happy with it.. You don't have to cook differently for them. Kinda my way or the highway attitude.[/quote] I feel ultimately, eating clean will be beneficial to all of us. But my husband isn't ready to make that change. Then I think…

Haha! Ok...

I guess I have this "all in" mentality. I'm either all in or I'm not. Changes I'm proud of: 1. Cutting my 5ish Coke/day habit 2. Drinking water instead 3. Sticking below 1300 calories a day/portion control 4. Meeting my protein goals 5. Cutting sweets and processed foods Changes pissing me off: 1. Cutting coke when others…

I feel like slapping someone with a Snickers.

No, no... I'm on my second week of said change... As in I just started one week and one day ago... And in response to the subway lady/debit card deal, I'm not generally a crabby person, so that's why it's gotta go. Doesn't work for me.

Their prices are steep... $199 to start which included initial consult, bloodwork, in body analysis, 1 lipo b-12 shot, and the first month of appetite suppressants. Each week you're supposed to weigh in and it's $5 just to weigh in and $27 if you want another lipo b-12 shot.

I didn't make the scales - I just use 'em. I weighed in on Monday at 212lbs at the weight loss center, which was consistent with my scale at home. Weighing myself today, I am 203lbs. 9lbs. I know the Lipo B-12 shot they gave me contains a fat burner. ?? And I now understand why the B-12 is there... I feel deprived of…

Well here's the thing - I just had a baby 6 weeks ago. When I found out I was pregnant (a very pleasant surprise), I had just begun my weightloss journey. I was 258lbs at my highest (I lost a few pounds before coming to MFP) and when I found out I was expecting, I was 238lbs. By cutting out sodas, drinking lots of water,…
