No, I don't like myself to get overly hungry that's when I tend to go overboard and not make good choices. I eat every couple/few hours. It keeps my metabolism humming along. I try to always have healthy snacks and water with me if I am out and about to tied me over to my next meal.

Yes, I think she has a good sense of humor.

I drink 8, 8 ounce cups, so about 64oz a day. Some days more, some days less but that is my goal to shoot for. I'm about 120 pds.

Taken and next month will mark our 22nd wedding anniversary.

I have gone up and down in my weight many times and each time my weight changes so does my body. When I was breastfeeding I was I was a 38DDD , one time at my heaviest not pregnant weight I was a 36DD, when I was younger at a lower weight I was a 32C, About for years ago at the same weight I am right now I was a 34D, this…

Yes.

Started out in my journey smoking, obese, on heart meds, was prediabetic, drank no water (only pepsi), fast food at least once a day if not twice, ate no veggies, didn't know what a portion or a serving was and never exercised and hated everything about it....after I quit smoking, lost the weight by eating better and…

I tried be skinny before many times and hit goal and then put it all back on plus some many times....now my goal is be healthy and fit and skinny is just an added bonus and yes it is worth it and I have every intention of remaining healthy and fit with the added bonus of being skinny!

I try to have protein or healthy fat when I have carbs, it seems like it keeps me satisfied longer. I like to have some lower sodium lunch meat or a slice of a reduced fat cheese with a whole grain crackers ( I like WASA crackers), Apple or banana with some nut butter ( I love Almond butter), I'll have a slice of whole…

My diary is open to my friends, feel free to add me. I'm currently working on maintenance.

Why just chicken? There is a lot of other lean meat or protein options out there for dinner? Do you want any other recipes that have Lean beef? Turkey? Pork tenderloin? etc? I can post some other recipes or I can look up some more chicken ones if you want?

Here's another one my family likes but I don't really have a recipe, I just mix up some cut up chicken breasts, some cooked brown rice, some reduced fat cheddar cheese and some broccoli with some salt and pepper. Easy and yummy.

It sounds to me like you might want to consult your doctor.

What worked best for me was learning about what type of metabolism I had. I used this test at this link to find out : http://caloriecount.about.com/forums/weight-loss/metabolic-types-eating I learned I'm a Balanced Oxidizer and I feel my best when I eat 40% of my daily calories from Carbs, 30% from protein and 30% from…

I eat about 300-400 calories for the most part for breakfast, but I also will have 100-200 calorie morning snack as well. I am maintaining now. When I was working on losing I was sticking to eating about 300 calories for breakfast and 100 calorie morning snack.

I'm 5' 4 and 120 pds if they have the footlongs on sale for the $5.00 I will get a footlong and eat half for one meal and the other half either later that day or the next day. I usually have an apple or some fruit to go with it too and that's perfect for me.

I eat 2% reduced fat, low fat and fat free

total from my heaviest= *67 footballs *67 packages of butter (with 4 sticks) * or the fats and oils and average American eats in a year total since starting mfp= *5 gallon bottle of water * or an average human leg

Not yet, but I am hoping to soon. I have a girl on my friends list we know that we don't live very far from each other, we have talked about meeting up for a run some time or to take our dogs for a walk. We are talking about doing The Color Run here locally in August. I think it would be cool to meet her hang out and maybe…

I try to get her out to the dog park when the weather is nice and time allows as she plays I walk around. I try to get my dog out for at least a 15-30 minute walk everyday and on occasion depending on my mood we may jog a bit. She loves both and always ready to go whenever I am, she can go from napping to ok let's go in a…

* I had meant to reply to Cwofman13 quote but I had did it wrong so I edited it for clarity, sorry I know it's confusing, but I didn't see how I could delete my comment to try again...oh well, you get the idea.

I get my healthy fats like how some of the others have posted on this thread from eggs, cheese, nuts, nut butters , avocado and cooking oils like Olive Oil and Canola Oil, but these really aren't that low in calories ( eggs and reduced fat cheese aren't that bad calorie wise or like 8 almonds or a tablespoon of nut butter…

It's not all actual fat gained. I stopped weighing more than once a week partly for that reason. I weigh once a week on a Wednesday now so I have a few days to drink a lot of water and correct my eating if I got off plan a little over the weekend. I haven't done that in a few months now, I had a rough time through the…
