i don’t carry them over. Start each day fresh and if you have left over calories consider it a bonus. Too many people rationalize and try to justify overdoing it some times by calling it a cheat day, free day, non-logging day, whatever. If in your mind you feel that’s ok and your will power gives in just keep in mind it…

from ohio as well. have used this and another site in the past and found it to be the best way to help lose a few pounds..ok more than just a few. I probably am the worst offender of watching stuff like carbs and protein. I just eat what I want as long as it falls within the caloric budget I set. It’s simply a mathematical…

I love fooling it. As a drummer every time I push a pedal or hit a drum it registers a step. So after a 3 hr show I can get it up to 25,000 “steps”. I know it doesn’t really count...but it’s fun to see.

Pita bread pizza, fries and chicken . Works great and so much faster than heating up the oven.

Seriously folks 3/4 cup is 120 calories, even adding some skim milk or non dairy creamer and a cup off coffee comes out under 200 calories without all the prep and clean up from exotic breakfasts. I don’t worry about protein, sugars, carbs. Just want something to get rolling with that’s not crazy calories.

that means all the rest of today's calories don't count !

Love those little buggers, heat them in the microwave for about 10 seconds...makes them a lot better !

Steak pieces, stir fried with fresh mushrooms, onions, broccoli and a hot Szechuan sauce.... But mostly Halloween candy.
-
If I put the refrigerator down the steet I would get enough walking in to lose this much weight too

Every 5 lbs gets me a new shirt or pair of pants. I’m into rewards, it’s hard work and I like having something physical to look forward to

Just a little story about how others don’t really notice sometimes. I took my wife to her drs appointment this past Friday. As we are sitting waiting for the doc to come into the room, she’s looking at the BMI chart on the wall, and says I should look up where she is. I look at up and she’s happy to be on the low end. I…

Maybe they do notice and just don’t want to say anything. You will notice it soon enough, like others said since you see yourself every day it’s hard to perceive the change. Let the clothes be a guide, as they are fitting better it’s proof positive your on target.
-
It’s hard to see the change yourself sometimes, since in your mind you often see what your mind has reinforced the last few years. If people are commenting, the change is happening. 42 is a great loss....1/2 way to your target. Bet your tightening up that belt a notch or two, fitting into clothes you had problems with…

If I was to join a gym it would need a pool and a sauna, otherwise it’s just not worth it for me. The only one close is on my way to work and they are not open early enough to accommodate me. I have gone past on my way home and it’s a mob scene and thats not my thing to deal with. I have plenty of good gear at home...just…

Often I just think I’m hungry, usually at night watching tv. If I’m really hungry I will make popcorn or have some carrots or a small salad. If I just want to eat because I’m programmed to snack, I can either just go to bed and it will pass, or I found that jumping in here on the forum and reading other people’s successes…

Gods must be crazy Harold and Maude Apocalypse now (wonderful cinematography)

I’m just a simple kind of guy.its either plain old salad with chicken chunks or pepperoni slices on it or a can of Progresso light soup. The entire can (I like the savory vegetable barley) is only 140 calories. 5 days a week for about 3 months now and still not sick of it yet. Although the others at work are sick of seeing…

Cleaned out my closet and found more treasures that I have never even worn !

They sure didn’t seem so huge in the past. It has a lot to do with the fact that we simply know better than to wolf down such huge portions. I don’t think the portions changed, just my perception of what constitutes a lot of food. And I agree they can keep the fancy stuff with the pretty little decorative plates in the…

I like candy corn.
-
I eat salsa, marinara sauce, bbq sauce. But I won’t touch ketchup.
-
Carrots dipped,in Italian salad dressing for a snack
-
It seems that if I eat breakfast I get hungrier earlier. It’s like it gets the mind cued up for food. If I don’t have anything other than coffee, I’m fine until 10:00 or close to that.
-
Ziti with Marinara sauce, hamburger patty, salad.
-
Boneless chicken with broccoli, Szechuan sauce, onion, hot peppers and a small serving of pasta
-
You all are great cooks and I wish I had this talent (or patience) but I’m just a plain eater that doesn’t like fancy foods or ingredients. Hate cleaning up a big mess and dislike stuff like asparagus and beans. My great recipe is: go to store, find soup aisle, buy a can of soup, take home, nuke 3 minutes, wash dish. Done.…
-
Hate to say it but a cup of coffee and 3/4 cup of Cocoa Puffs or just about any packaged cereal. You need no special diet food, a piece of fruit, bowl of cereal, etc all are in the 120 calorie range. Just check the label. I have no time to make eggs or fancy breakfasts. Actually prefer special K with the pieces of…
