I installed a couple. Only looking at them briefly I'm not seeing one that will do what I think I want.

Nearly 2lbs a week, that is incredible. Keep it up! Your definitely doing something right and I'm sure it's not easy. You should be proud of that.

Sensa doesn't help you lose weight it helps you eat less. If the OP is exercising then she needs the calories. I'd recommend switching up your routine, try something completely different. You mentioned talking to a trainer. What do they say about your stall?

Oh yeah and prepare yourself for a long road ahead.

Track everything, especially at first. You'll be surprised by how much the little things add up. Don't give up. I know your not seeing results but are you feeling anything? Do you feel more energy? Do you feel stronger. Keep it up and the weight/inches will follow.

I don't see the bullying on the emailers part. I see the news anchor being a bully by using her position and power to put this guy in his place. Whether the email was inappropriate or not. I bet she has gotten far more inappropriate emails. She choose this one because the guy tried to express his opinion in a nice way.…

Cottage cheese comes in many variety's and while I'm a big fan of it I don't like won't eat certain brands. I can't stand the local Spartan brand but I love my local Meijer brand more than any other kind. I also have grown accustomed to the fat free version and can't eat the higher fat content ones.

Nearly every processed food and even fresh foods will at one time or another have something in them that doesn't belong.

Yup that's what I was going to say. When your body is at the extremes it can shock your system. So if your overheating and I mean serious overheating like heat stroke or heat exhaustion then don't drink ice water. When it's cold outside and you eat snow to get water it takes a lot of calories for you body to melt the snow…

So how does one get from the machines to the free weights? Some of the attitude in this thread is what's keeping some of us on the machines. When I joined my gym I didn't know how to use the machines. I don't have any idea where to even start with free weights.

Maybe she thinks she's helping by encouraging you to eat healthy? What would you say if she called and invited you out to beer and pizza after you had a particular hard week staying on track? Maybe also the poking at your fat was her way to motivate you to lose the weight? What do I know, if she's so bad drop her, if she's…

So now it's not healthy to burn off fat, somebody hit me with a box of Twinkies, I don't want liver damage.

There wouldn't be many people to talk on here or get support from if we all had to be doctors or certified nutritionists to reply to any question. Even among those supposedly educated there are many opinions of what is right. This is a great community because of the number of people willing to contribute to it.

I hate eating when I travel, even when work is paying for it. I hate eating out alone. Get yourself a small cooler. Every hotel has ice makers to keep it cold. Then your options really open up. Yogurt, meat, cheese, fresh fruits and vegetables. . Then your limiting factor becomes what you can cook in a microwave.

Wow the insensitivity of some people surprises me. Both the people your living with and the people at the gym. I think what your doing in spite of the people around you is pretty great and the best way thing you can do is to keep doing it. Not to prove anything to any body but because you deserve to be healthy. Don't give…

Google this, there have been studies done that debunk the 6 meal a day myth as far as affecting metabolism. Though there are benefits to some by eating more often they eat less overall or they feel less hungry. Everything I've read says breakfast is important.. As others have said you need to do what works for you. Also as…
