A freind of mine tried it a while back. Lost weight even though I did not think she needed to as she became too thin. She gained some back and looks healthy. I have tried some of the recipes but I don't believe in no carbs. Have a balanced diet and use MFP to track it all! It is all about portion control too. My husband…

Your story is an inspiration to us all! Keep up the good work!

Good luck to you cmoses! We are all in on htis together! Logging on here has helped me more than any other weight loss I have tried before. Go for it!

Do this for you! It will make you soul feel better!

I have made roasted sweet potato cut up so you can call it fries too just shapped different. They carmelize and get sweet from being cut into small pieces, Yum! We went out tonight and had this yummy salad with grilled veggies and salmon on top at Longhorn steakhouse. you can get just the salad part but I wanted a protein…

Salmon is very good for you in Omega 3. It is the good fat. However, you could always cook up some baked tilapia with a sprinking of seasoned bread crumbs on top and a little zest of lemon. Have with a side of tons of roasted veggies that have been roasted with olive oil & salt & pepper. To add a little starch could make…

Almost everyday since it is so cold I eat Low sugar maple flavor oatmeal. I use to put a touch of milk in it and now I don't put anything else in it. Plus a cup of coffee with Int'l delight creamer. I can't seem to give up the creamer. I have tried but ended up putting sugar & more milk in coffee. I have tried the no fat…

something sweet after dinner. But I try to be good!

Stress can make you hungry or want to eat too. I felt it yesterday when I got home. Although, I worked through it and still had an snack in the evening and stayed within my calories etc....

Oatmeal for me every morning. I have the Quaker Low sugar ones.

I hope I was not being too forcefull in my opinion earlier today as I don't fault those who have had success with WLS. More power to you ladies! I am just worried about my brother. But on the flip side he is worried he won't live a long life if he does not do something like this. Again, congrats to those who have your…

My Brother is looking into weight loss surgery. Has Diabeties and is tired of being overweight. I think he has not tried enough to loose it first. It is scary to me he is want to do this. I know allot of people have had it done but just because of that does not mean it totally safe and healthy. I think your body would…

I have been on and off here since Christmas. I do better a logging in when I am working! Hang in there and WE CAN DO IT!

I say once a year is not going to break the bank. Moderation is the key. Sounds like a great recipe! I would not make it unless it was for a special occasion like this so everyone else gobbles it up! Enjoy!

Welcome MariSama! I consider myself still a newbie here after 4 weeks. I have lost 8 lbs just by changing my diet that includes portion control. I had to for my husband as he was diagnosed with Diabetes type 2. It really has been the best thing that has happened in a strange way as we both feel soo much better for it. I am…

I am on my husbands new diabetic plan so I can loose weight and eat better but I am trying to eat less carbs. However, I find if I eat more fiber & protein in a day it helps stop that hunger felling. I love Fiberone bars and eat the peanut butter ones for a snack in mid afternoon. So the peanut butter & fiber helps me get…

That is sure to be an insentive! How sweet:)

Stick to this website and there is lots of people and tools to motivate you!

That sounds Yummy for sure!

I know I did and did not weigh myself this morning. I am sure I gained a pound or two but not going to sweat it. Going to weigh in next Monday. I am back on board today though as I got rid of foods by sending them with my inlaws to take home with them yesterday. Only thing left is some turkey I am going to make soup with…

I weigh 230 I am set at 1630 calories to loose 2lbs a week. However, I try to stay closer to the 1200 calories range. This is only my second week on this and I have yet to set an exercise goal. So, I have to work on that. I think once both my hubby & I are both working out it will motivate me. Right now he can't exercise…

Welcome newbie! :happy: Hey, I feel your pain. I have been overweight since I was a child. I have only been on here for a week and doing the food diary every day is very helpful to see what you eat and where you can cut back. I find it very positive. I am more interested in being on here than FB, although, you can follow…

Most times I eat Instant Low sugar oatmeal at work during the week. Weekends could be egg or cereal (Special K with strawberries.) Do love how the oatmeal stays with me and keeps me going in the morning.

I love my coffee :drinker: But I can't seem to shake putting in the International Delight vanilla creamer. I don;t put sugar in it since the creamer has sugar in it. However, I have backed off on the amount I put in. Serving size is 2 Tblsp and I put in 1. And I drink 1-2 cups a day if that much. Maybe I should try the fat…

Me Three! Food is a big part of my family gatherings. It will be the first holiday without my Dad has he passed this past May. He was the center of our family and now both our parents gone. Gone but not forgotten:) I feel postive this week as I know my DAd is an angel watching over me! My Hubby & I had our first week of…

Thanks! And all I did was some major house cleaning this past weekend as far as exercise! :happy:

My first week I show I lost 6 lbs? Is that possible?:noway: Maybe the scale was a little off last week when I weighed in.

Thanks! I wish I had more to report on here like the rest of you but the only thing is I ate too many calories at lunch today! I think. Is it bad to eat more at lunch and less at dinnertime as long as I stay within my calorie range?
