  • Good Point! Thanks! :) And I guess considering they are a vegetable it's better to over eat a bag of carrots than a over eat a bag of potato chips...
  • I have a similar problem due to blood sugar... when it's low it is LOW! and I feel sick because of it. I always believed that myth that you should eat your last meal before 8pm if you want good weight loss, however, I find my blood sugar to be so low by the time I go to sleep at 10:30-11 that I can't sleep because I feel…
  • I am 5'4'' and 144.8 pounds currently, my start weight was 163. I am a medium frame so I wear medium size shirts and size 12 pants, my goal is to get to 130-135 and be able to wear size 10 again... I know that some girls on here who are in the 5'4'' range have goals for 115 or so.. My doctor says that I wouldn't be able to…
  • I knew I forgot something when I was home today.... my weekly tape measurement! I try to do that too when I remember.... Good Tips! Thanks :)
  • I'm 5'4 and I WISH I could weigh as little as you girls... My doctor doesn't want me going below 130 pounds... Not sure why though... I'm at 144 so we'll see what the next 15ish pounds brings and how I feel then. I eat about 1200 calories a day with lots of protein and 6 cups of water.
  • I allow myself one day to go over my 1410 calories compared to the 1200 I eat the rest of the week. And I've actually weighed less after my splurge day than the day before... It was weird I was excepting to up a pound or so and lost like 2 pounds! lol Only thing is that I've been on a plateau since then... It was probably…
  • Imitation Crab Sticks are my guilt-free guilty pleasure :) YUM!!
  • I love to rock out while I work out! :) My playlist is: Crazy Train-Ozzy Osbourne Iron Man- Black Sabbath Tonight Tonight- Hot Chelle Rae Enter Sandman- Metalica Dirty Little Secret- All American Rejects Love Drunk- Boys Like Girls Welcome To The Jungle- Guns N Roses Highway To Hell- ACDC Heartbeat- Stereo Skyline Back In…
  • It might be the theory that the body craves what it needs... I know that theory is a little bit of a myth, but usually when people start dieting they shift from eating typically high fat foods to foods not as high in fat and maybe your body isn't used to less fat in your diet yet! :) We do need fats in our diet so craving…
  • I was actually curious about my protein levels too when before I saw your thread! I was always under the assumption that protein was like water, fruits and veggies- nothing but good nutrients and there's no such thing as "too much" Typically, I eat a lot of protein and go over on it too. In the pie charts on my phone app,…
  • I actually learned a lot of the same things!! Great Tips! :)
  • I recently tasted the store brand, Great Value, Greek Yogurt for the first time! I was so excited to discover there is NO FAT in it! Pure Nutrients!!! I have some flavored... Strawberry and Peach and it tastes great by itself :)
  • I'm 5' 4'' and right now my goal is 140, but I'm within 5 pounds of that so I might try dropping down to 135 or so. My healthy BMI range is 130 to 145 so by BMI standards I'm at a healthy weight. My mom/doctor says i shouldn't go below 130-135 because of my bone structure.
  • Congratulations to you!! MFP makes losing weight fun, it's like a game to me :) With MFP I can almost guarantee that losing a little more weight and maintaining it will be a breeze!
  • I hadn't realized a lot of what you said so thank you!!! I haven't been monitoring my protein intake after working out but I will start. My work out routine varies with my weekly schedule always changing but I make a point of getting to the gym at least once a week for an hour.. usually 20-25 minutes on the treadmill and…
