i log in every day, keep up my exercise routine, and keep track of my weight and how my clothes are fitting. if i get to the top of my comfortable range, i work to get back down, but it's mostly just a change in food choices at this point. once you're more than a decade into it, you sort of know how to do it and what to…

Name: iuew How long in maintenance: since 2005 Goal maintenance range: 160 - 175 (though i'd like to stay at the lower end.) Current weight: 166 Current goal: good numbers at my next physical and to keep my MFP streak going. Recent success: my BMI is 23.2 this morning. Strategy for your goal: keep on keeping on.

official is 1225 days. i've actually logged every day since November 19, 2010, but a software glitch reset it to somewhere in 2011, i think.

What did you sacrifice to get your workouts in? i get up a lot earlier. also, i do a workout right before dinner even though i'm already hungry. worth it? yeah. every day.

good luck! i am involved in a couple fitness boards on facebook, and i always advise rest during injuries. last week, i decided to take mountain biking up a notch, and i really screwed up my hip. late in the week, i could hardly walk due to tendonitis, and i had to really back off for a couple days. it was really…

i eat subway most days because it's healthier than other places and it's portion controlled. as a result, i've maintained my weight loss pretty well. some people prefer to cook every meal; i'm ok with that, too. i think it's all about nutrients, and nutrients don't know where you bought them. that being said, if you get…

about time somebody asked this question, lol. i'll post the same thing i posted on the other 1,872,956,345,701 threads on this topic : http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed this is pubmed. pubmed compiles every real, peer-reviewed scientific study done on everything. the sweeteners have been tested many times, and the papers…

i will also add that my favorite was the oven crisp chicken. why they got rid of that, i have no idea. it was completely awesome.

i eat there almost daily, so i have a few. (all 6") roast beef flatbread w/ honey mustard / veggies blt flatbread / honey mustard / veggies club on wheat w/ light mayo (i add my own usually. less cals.) additionally, when you want to do light mayo, ask for packets. 35 cals instead of 50. i also enjoy some of the higher cal…

looks like they deleted the thread, lol. poster claimed to be trying to drop 350 pounds eating nothing but "pototaes." kind of reminds me of some other ridiculous diet plans i read about.
-
congrats! i remember when i dropped below 200. i promised myself never again would i approach 200, and i have kept that promise.

eating only pickles = not good. if you think that's bad, check out this diet : http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/944039-pototae-cleanse-pruven-methods lol

you did do well. congrats!

i knew my dinner would top 1,700 cals, so i planned it the night before, cut back breakfast, skipped lunch entirely, and did 140 mins cardio. i'm on maintenance, but everyone is entitled to a feast every now and again. i still came in under cals, and dinner was awesome.

baked potato grilled chicken sandwich. clif bar and a couple cadbury mini eggs for dessert.
-
great work. congratulations!

it's sad that MFP doesn't have a "like" button, lol.
-
same here, lol. diet rite in my case. although i was frightened to learn that it's OVER 99 PERCENT WATER!!!!!!1 OH NOES

they are calorie dense ; high in fat and salt. i really enjoy fries, so i just get them every once in a while. get a small or kid's size when you can. that's what i do, unless the restaurant won't sell me the kid's portion; then i just throw some of them away. for my fry cravings on other days, i just take barbecue baked…

the first weight came off of my face, waist, and legs. love handles came off last.

i'm 1,165 minutes in on the exercise bike this March. and many more. exercise bike is my favorite winter workout.

i quite caffeinated coffee in 2010. i felt a bit low for two weeks, and that was it, along with an occasional low-grade headache. i drink decaf now, and honestly, it gives me as much of a boost as regular coffee ever did. i have the occasional full strength diet coke, but i don't really miss caffeinated coffee.

i love Greek yogurt. my faves that are under 120 cals : Danon Greek cherry : 80 cals Yoplait Greek 100 strawberry, 100 cals Oikos Greek caramel, 110 cals. this one has become almost impossible to find. to me, the Greek cherry from Danon tastes like cheesecake.

any condiment which has a 1 tsp serving size (excluding hot sauce.) nobody puts that on a sandwich.

i lost 110 pounds yeas ago, and i'm often cold now. i solve this by wearing sweaters and doing push ups.
-
mostly at home. i have an exercise bike, treadmill, and rowing machine. my favorite exercise is walking / hiking, and i do this in my town most of the year. generally, i take a couple camping trips to Turkey Run and Salamonie; hiking at those places is stellar. also, golf (pulling clubs) burns an insane amount of calories…

mine is dead accurate now. at one point years ago, though, it was about an eighty pound lie. by the time i finished the diet, liquor stores were giving me serious trouble about accepting the ID because i didn't look like the picture.

this. i'll also post this one more time : pubmed is a compilation of most legitimate, peer-reviewed scientific studies. if you see a ridiculous claim on a blog somewhere, check for real research here : http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed
