ok UH it really depends on your body and if you TONE up the whole time you are losing the 100 pounds. I lost 140 pounds from Jan 08- Oct 08. I had gastric bypass ( had also had a 9 pound baby in 2000) I workout out during that time but I did not tone. Once I lost the weight I did have some loose skin but my Dr told me that…

Im a state certified food safety and sanitation inspector as well and a personal chef, so always know there is nasty in…

ever since seeing how much better I felt once I stopped eating all fast food I cant bring myself to eat it again. IF I cant pack a few bottles of water and protein bars or a bag lunch then I will just eat when I get home. If you have time to go thru the drive thru, then we have time to take a meal on the road from home for…

ok to help a lil. we need to eat less 3500 calories to lose a pound, plus we work out so then add the calories you burn off plus: do you realize how many calories you burn when you sleep, breath, walk to the bathroom, sit here and type, walk around the house while on the phone, walk to your car, take a shower, and then…

thanks everyone.. I have never had chol issue since I did have gastric bypass I know I probably shouldnt worry about it as much since I dont absorb every gram I put in my body b/c I dont have the internal parts now to do so, but I have to watch my protein b/c even based on what this gives Im suppose to get 64 grams a day…

im with the above comment, if you have to eat quickly then run into the local market and get a sub sandwich atleast. get away from that FAST FOOD.. There is NOTHING healthy at any of them. in one burger u could be eating the entire amount of calories u need for the day. go shopping and get you some 100 calorie snacks..…

i am no nutritionist and that is who SHOULD answer this question for you! But I personally Do not eat and drink at the same time. BUT... I had gastric bypass and my surgeon told all of us that it was not good to mix the two. ONE, our stomachs need just the food at one time and then to drink water 30 mins later. B/c when…

im with ya. If you are obese, you should get a physical with your Doctor before starting a major workout plan. If you start working out hard core and hurt yourself you could prolong you being able to lose the weight. I myself have a pinched sciatic nerve that goes from my lower lumber all the way down to my right foot.. I…

fruit and veggies , whether raw or canned has carbs, sugar and calories so you need to count them.

i dont eat frozen meals but I do feel ya b/c lets say I fix a can of something like chef boyardee but I dont eat the full 1 cup of it. I still just put in that I had 1 cup of it. I would rather be safe and put down all the calories then to guess and be wrong on it , then thinking I had more calories to eat when I really…

But, i do most everything in my home b/c its who I am. Plus, I have always made more money than him b/c of my background and job status. But, Ive never put it in his face, nor…

I know this feeling all too well.. In my lower back to the right buttock cheek and down my right leg I have a serve pinched sciatic nerve. There are some days I can barely get out of the bed due to the pain it causes. but I push on but i dont over do it b/c I dont want to end up at the hospital from it either. I use to get…

I weight meat before cooking it but remember if you cook it and render all the fat out of it , it will weigh less. I also buy ground meat, chicken tender in the family size packs and then weigh then out and zip lock them to freeze this way all I have to do it take it out for dinner and its already portioned out :)

i was a smoker for a long time. I quit when I met my husband b/c he told me that I could not have the wedding of my dreams if I did not quit smoking.. So, I quit and now its been 11yrs and I never went back to it and I did not gain weight. I stayed focused on being fit for the wedding and knowing I was going to be…

are you poaching your fish to eat?? if your using this to thaw it I highly suggest not doing this but putting it in a cold water bath. Thawing frozen raw meats in hot water starts the cooking process and crosses over into the contamination level of the product. I know hot water sounds like its ok but its not. Im not trying…
-
it is best to thaw it in a cold water bath. never put food in hot water to thaw, it will poach it and start cooking and that will sometimes cross over into a hazard level of contamination and harmful then to eat. cooking it depends on what you like. I tend to always grill fish , so my house doesnt smell up with fish!…

i dont weigh much more than you and the MFP set me at 1240 calories a day and if you go to the Cancer.org site and check to see what a healthy calorie intake for your age,height and dont put in what u currently weight but what you want your goal weight is. This helps me to see that IF I was 175 pounds I would need to be…

Cook 2 cups of whole wheat pasta then add it to…

LOL, teaching him to cook would be like him trying to teach me to play tennis.. not in a million years. But, he does help with grocery shopping and if I write it on the list he does know how to fetch it.

its not a rant honey.. i wish my hubby was supportive but he is not, and a son with autism doesnt even understand about food and weight issue, he just know how to tell me when he is hungry. That alone is a major stress on me.
