Coconut oil, butter, mayo, eggs, bacon, sausage, cheese, heavy cream and brazil nuts need to become your best friends!

P.S. You are are all hilarious!

Ok, I have egg on my face. My wife said I left my account open! Enough said...

It's so great having family keeping each other accountable. My mom is in Alaska and I"m in Washington so she is loving the weight she losing and the support given! Good job!

It's easy to see why this is a top thread! Awesome job. My brother just started at 322lbs. and I'm going to send him your story.

Awesome job and holy calf muscles batman!

I don't know him personally but he is one my MFP friends and he has inspired me to keep on going. Let me tell you, he works hard doing cardio and never eats back his calories. His net calories are between -300 and 700 on average. He is a man on a mission! I'm sure he will expand on what he does. Friend him and view his…

Thanks for sharing your story, we all have a story and each one of them will help someone. Keep on sharing!

Thanks for all your comments, I went to 5 different websites to verify calorie amount and they ranged from 190-420 for 12 yogurt pretzels! I just decided it was better to burn 650 calories to be safe!

Besides the diary's I'd like to see their start, current and goal weight so I can see who has similar goals to me.

Don't sleep on the SEAHAWKS!!

I'm 32 and never stayed on a diet longer than 45 days. I'm on day 88 with MFP! So, I guess I have....

Wow, lots of feedback and thank you. I'm a goal oriented person too, so I'm pretty much going to wait until April. I can feel that I've lost more than 12 lbs too, I just want to wait to be surprised. Plus, for me staying on a healthy eating plan for 6 months is huge and by then my mind and my body will be retrained. Thanks…

I went on a 30 day water fast and had no problems. I lost 40 pounds and then slowly gained it all back. I'm now eating 1700 calories for 6 months and should lose the same amount or more by eating which is better for me. However, the cleansing effect from my water fast was amazing. Good luck. Juice should be no problem.

Did you figure out your TDEE by using a fitbit or some other method?

I've made a commitment to myself not to weigh in until I reach 6 months. My reasoning is because I've been discouraged with myself constantly weighing in and expecting dramatic results. Hang in there.

Yes, I've had a doctor tell me that I'm allergic to all those foods and it causes inflammation, so I do my best to stay away from those foods. I'm really liking this site, and I'm focusing on calories and have lost 3.6 lbs since Saturday. It's amazing how much food a person can actually eat, yet still reducing calories!!
