A bag of frozen buffalo wings. 3oz? What the hey is that? Why can't you just tell us how many per wing? 3oz? Does that count the bones? If I take the meat off the bones and measure out 3oz, is that the same?

... when you lick the bowl of Greek yogurt because your measured out exactly 227 grams, dammit, and you're going to make sure you get every single one of them.

When you just start drinking the milk right out of the measuring cup.

I've definitely done this. "Hey, what the heck am I eating again?"

... when you've carefully fussed with a bag of food for five minutes just so you can get the barcode to scan.

Yes to all as long as they're not Canadian.

Whatever I get, I skip the cheese, sour cream and guac. Whether I get the bowl or the actual burrito depends on how many calories I plan on eating.

I have four days left and I'm done. I really enjoy doing it. I get a great sweat and burn a ton of calories without having to leave my living room. I'm going to take a week off and do it again. I'm considering doing (at least the first month) with a weight vest.

Ever notice how whenever a subject line says something like "THE REAL TRUTH" or a post says it's going to settle a debate, wackiness ensues?

I took it yesterday.

That's your journey. You've got to live your life. Good luck.

I do it every Sunday first thing in the morning after I pee.

It's OK, but I've moved on to the Mesolithic diet.

Team Jonagold!

Some people are good at comedy and satire. You are not one of them.

I'm just big boned.

MFP lets you adjust your crab values. Not everyone is supposed to eat the same amount of crabs.

The fuel put in cars isn't pure from the ground. It's refined and many different chemicals and other things are added to it.

Here's another one: raisins. The serving size on raisins is 1/4 cup. That's how much I would grab out of the carton to eat before I poured some on my cereal.

I'm just shocked at how many adults are still eating Pop Tarts.

Use an alarm clock that allows you to pick a song to wake up to. I use my phone's alarm and I pick a song that is either motivating or pleasant to hear in the morning. The worst thing in the world is to wake up to some screeching, beeping alarm. Why would you want the first thing you hear every day to be something you…

Because of my wife's and my schedules, I have to. She works early and I work later. This way, I bring the kids to school and she picks them up. I get up at 5:30 and work out from 6-7 and then wake the kids up. I'll say one thing, when you get into this routine, it makes waking up at 7:00 am feel like sleeping in.

I like the Trader Joe's brand. They chocolate is pretty good. It's about $11 for, I think, 16 servings.

Yes, it's awesome. For breakfast, I mix peanut butter, oatmeal and blueberries. I buy frozen blueberries from Trader Joe's, let them thaw in the fridge overnight and then I puree them up in a Magic Bullet. I use instant oatmeal & flax from Trader Joe's, too. I make that and I put it in a thermos and let it settle for about…

That's a good tip for the next time I make a sandwich. Unfortunately, most of the time I'm mixing peanut butter in with my oatmeal for breakfast.

And then when you're trying to measure it out, half of it gets stuck to the spoon and you need to use another spoon to wipe it off. It's a 5 minute process.

"How many did he have?!?! What is he nuts?!?"

Thanks for the tips. This is good stuff.
