  • When I started my weight loss journey, I weighed myself monthly (at my dietitian appointment). This worked well for me and made me not worry about the scale number as much as I can get obsessive about it. I now do weigh myself daily (because I only see the dietitian every 6-8 weeks now) and track using the Happy Scales…

  • I started my weight loss journey in April 2013. I was 244 lbs (I'm 5'9" and am now 42.) I hit my lowest 2 years later at 175 lbs.

  • My inlaws don't buy most meat. The exceptions are hamburger during grilling season, deli meats (mostly olive loaf), ham at Easter and Christmas and bacon. MIL doesn't "trust" the meat you buy in stores because "who knows what they put in it". Their diet consists almost exclusively of processed foods. Including soups and…

  • I am 5'9" and currently 205. My goal is 160. I'm fairly large framed. For me, 160 is an attainable goal. But my first mini goal is to get out if the 200's for the first time in 14 years! I'm 37.

  • I was only speaking to the fats/bones/skins of traditional meat vs grass fed, pastured meat. What I read on Mark's Daily Apple said that if you have to buy traditional meat, go for leaner cuts but the fats and bones are quite healthy in grass fed, pastured meats so getting a lean cut of meat is not important.

  • I believe it's because more toxins/bad stuff is stored in the fat/skin/bones. So, it's recommended to buy the leanest cuts of traditional meat to avoid them but if it's grass-fed, pastured meat then buy whatever you please. it's not the fat people are avoiding, but the hormones and things that are injected into many…
