1. You aren't overweight. 2. As a healthcare professional you should know that your intake isn't healthy. 3. I gather that you didn't care for the input based on your rebuttal - but were you surprised at the comments? We all know that you want faster results - so do I. You mentioned that you had lost 9 lbs at first. How…

Do you use vanilla, chocolate or plain protein powder?

Well, if a placebo works to get rid of a migraine, perfect! Better than pills!

Lots of us (and you know who we are) have talked about our weight or body problems in the past, even when dining with friends and throwing the "diet" word around. As in, "I can't have that because I'm on this or that diet". Or made comments about clothes not looking good on us because of our lack of waistline or some such.…

Lots of good solid information given w scientific explanations. Use it and maybe your friends will choose to model their dietary practices on yours instead of the reverse. You're asking questions and researching so you're on the right path.

No, don't add bad food. But, maybe use a T of olive oil in your salad (120 calories) to keep a little healthy fat in your system to keep hair and skin healthier. Schedule a healthy lunch including a lean protein and salad, fruit or vegetable. Just by adding that 120 worth of healthy oil calories to even one meal you're…

Great series of shots showing your progress. Should be a model approach to record success. And I agree, body fat scales are a marketing gimmick.

My sister, who is not now and never has been as much as 1 lb over ideal, just had gallbladder surgery. & she got the same fatty-liver diagnosis. & she doesn't drink at all. So there is some other connection other than weight or alcohol.

Have you cut caffeine out of your day? Although being low calorie (or lower than you were eating before you started a nutrition plan) may or may not be the culprit (see all the prior input), caffeine withdrawal is a detox of sorts and can produce a lot of nasty symptoms until out of the system.

No

Running the numbers: * 20 kg = ~ 44 lbs. * 61 days between today and July 14. * =1/3 kg per DAY, or 5/7 lbs per day. Or 2.3 kg per week/5.05 lbs per week. One pound of fat equals 3,500 calories, so for a weekly loss of even 2.2 pounds, or one kilogram, plan a 1100-calorie deficit daily over a period of seven days. Can you…

You seem young - final exams? Once you're through and on a more predictable daily schedule you will have a better chance. But at your height, it's unlikely that the scales will drop much at 1600 daily calories. But what do I know.

Why so low? That's a lot - or I should say a little.

I have about the same amount (15) to lose at this point to reach the top end of my acceptable weight range. Which will be fine with me if I just get there! Is your loss continuing at a steady pace or has it slowed down? OH - your profile picture is adorable!
-
Do you have a record of your daily calorie intake? Please start there so you can know where you stand. You indicate that you started your journey in 2014, but did you really? I suggest you restart (in your mind) your start date to today and just forget the last 2 years. Fresh slate! Log, weigh/measure food, set your…

Agree - Cabot's has a good lower fat cheddar

I can't play this - everything I write is too true to be funny!

Detour Protein Bars or Pure Protein Bars from Costco - both pretty good deals. However, 3-4 is just too many per day for a healthy diet plus you'll have a hard time controlling a sweet tooth if you're doing that. I agree that if they work for you in the weight-loss process while focusing only on calories fine and good. At…

Is MFP not showing your general trend when you look at progress?

No cheat days if you're struggling til you get this under control. Unless you want to substitute a glass of wine for a fruit and call that your "cheat" day - and track even then. "I can't imagine" means that you don't know what you're doing on those days. If you are an ice cream lover, you can get in real trouble with some…

Have been through the exact same thing and it's all my own fault! Anyway, I'm attaching a food list that might get you started. Don't follow it exactly - it's just a guide. You'll probably need to reduce the protein serving sizes a little and then add in a T or so healthy fat - like olive oil - each day. But work with this…

Do you need to lose more weight? You're already in the range already - see the healthy BMI recommendation- you're right in the middle which is a sweet spot. And you're already exercising and getting fit. What size dress/pants do you wear? Ideal Weight Calculator Result Based on the Robinson formula (1983), your ideal…

I spent 5 days with my sister while her husband was in the hospital (15 days!) with a pretty serious illness. During that period didn't exactly binge, but if she wanted wine or a loaded burger from her favorite hand-patted hamburger stand (and they WERE wonderful) I joined in without a murmur. Calorie counting was not a…

1. Nestle has a 20 cal hot cocoa. A little watery but nicer than calorie-busting. 2. What is squash? I'm in USA. 3. Celestial seasoning lemon zinger. Or any of the flavors. I make a huge jug every night. Just put 10 packs in a 2-qt container of cold water & let sit overnight. Add 2 small Crystal Light on-the-go packs…

HA! I've seen plenty of guys with boobs!

Well, CONGRATS on cutting out tobacco! Stabilizing while you get nicotine out of your system isn't a bad thing and I agree with those who commented that you should just relax a bit. If you're tobacco-free, working out and eating properly, you're already well on your way to your best health profile. At your height 210 is…

I must ask. Has she said or done anything to make you feel inadequate? Or is it a case of your perception? I have 2 younger sisters and I adore both of them, but we have our moments. That said, if I hadn't seen either one in a long time, the joy of seeing her would be the only thing that mattered to me.

Do you have an Aldi's nearby? Around $.70 there last week.

I think either commas or the word "or" were implied: (mustard, peanut, drink that goes into...); (mustard or peanut or drink that goes into ...). Basically saying EVERYTHING is logged.
