For me, I was able to lose while on the pills (a variety of kinds as I've been on many.) I had to stop taking the pill due to migraines. So my doctor put me on the Depo Provera shot and I loved everything about it. I was headache free, didn't have to worry about swallowing a pill every day, no period at all... but I gained…

I don't really have a goal weight really.

Eating disorders…

No cheese on a dish can make a big difference in calories! Always take a glass of water or iced tea over milk. If you drink warm tea, try doing just some honey…

This is just what works for me eating around that much. Usually when I decide to try to lose weight I usually eat around 1200-1400 cals. To maintain I usually eat around 1500-1700. I've lost 4lbs in the past two weeks by eating two large meals and healthy snacking throughout the day. This is what I plan on eating today to…
