  • Congrats on your wedding, that is most wonderful. Do not let your weight gain overshadow what is a wonderful time in your life. There will be a bit of a let down after all the festivities, that combined with the weight gain can be an ugly spiral if you let it. The best thing to do is log, log, log. That always gets me back…

  • The most important thing is doing what is right for you. What I hear you asking is: “if I decide to take a break, what are strategies that work”. When I started back at MFP I was at my highest weight ever. If I were to get to what the charts said I should be at I would have to eat at 1,200 calories for 2.5 years. That is…
    in What are your thoughts on taking a break from weight loss before starting again? Comment by ckf76 August 2017
  • I know everyone on here is quick to say that you are not logging correctly. I am guessing that you are and have just hit a plateau. They are maddening! One thing I have tried when I hit a plateau such as you are on is the 5-2 plan. I cannot do this long term but it kick starts my metabolism for two weeks to get me started…

  • I eat 3 hard boiled egg whites, every day either for breakfast or my afternoon snack. It is a GREAT source of protein and as someone already say they really fill you up. I also have 3 dogs; who the minute I crack the egg, show up for the yolks. (I skip them just from a calorie standpoint more than anything else!)

  • I think it is really important to find a good and thorough doctor who can do a full workup on you. The part of your post that concerns me is hair loss and fatigue. So many underlying problems are missed because a doctor takes one look at you and all they see is fat. If you can find a doctor who looks beyond that, while at…

  • I am new to your board, Lana thanks for the great tips. I really appreciate the ricotta one and am going to try it. I went to a nutritionist and she told me that when you open your fridge what you see is going to be what you eat. That has really stuck with me. I am a salt a holic so I always keep hard boiled eggs on hand.…

  • I have started, stopped, started stopped and started again. This time it is really working. One thing I really fixate on is that little marker that says logged in for 50 days in a row.....I like that. I read a post the other day from a woman who logged in over 750 days in a row and lost 130 lbs. I want that to be me but I…
