I finished the 21 day diet and lost 10 lbs. Now finished week 4 and down 12+. I quit buying their snacks, but recreate their snack packs with my own food. Planning to reduce one dinner meal a week to go out with the wife for a weekly salad night. I like the structure as it keeps me from over eating due to lack of planning.

I am into the second week of the 21 day challenge and have lost about 7 lbs. I like eating 5 times a day and I needed the portion control. I will probably do another 21 day challenge and then possibly do a hybrid. Most of the meals are pretty good. My only problem is with the store where they will substitute or leave out a…

I get taken out to lunch quite a bit by vendors and a number in our group are on high protein - low carb diets. Our favorite place is a seafood resturant where we order : cold boiled shrimp for appetizer fish with some type of topping sauted spinach or grilled vegetables

For the record, I had a discussion with my company's IT head and we both agree BF3 is a great game. He likes rush in multiplayer and I like team deathmatch. BF has really improved. Other than the gun lights, we have no complaints. There is always a war of words between BFrs and CODrs in every game forum. I have fun playing…

Three Xboxs will be playing MW3 on Nov. 8th. (Me and my two sons) There could be a bandwith problem brewing. :<) Been playing BF3 this weekend, not a bad game.

How is the best way to moniter body fat? Isn't there a simple hand held device that has some type of small current?

I started Phase 1 of South Beach on Monday June 6th and have lost 9.5 lbs in the first 10 days. I am basically eating nothing but lean meat, vegetables, salads, a few nuts and low fat cheese and yogart. I am not getting many carbs and not counting the calories at all. However, I am fairly sure I have been hanging around…

I don't eat breakfast, so that hasn't been a concern to me. If you stick to Phase 1, I have been pleasantly surprised that it does kill your cravings and appetite for sugar or carbs. It has been much easier to control the emotional or boredom eating. Down 6.5 lbs after the first week. I know most is fluid, but am feeling…

How about Andy Griffith Show Everyone whistle now.....

Amen to that ....me too.

Personally, I have never eaten more calories and lost weight. However, I have an open mind and not fully convinced either way. As an engineer, I have problems believing that if I eat 200 more calories that I will burn 400 more and lose weight. Why doesn't the body just burn the extra 200 and then slow down again? I hear…

Rolling black outs all through the state of Texas due to power plant problems in the Dallas Fort Worth area. Shutting down power for 15 minutes every hour. Schools are closing all over. Traffic light shut down every 45 minutes. Your work computer goes down every 45 minutes. I believe everyone will be heading home by noon…

PF is one of the reasons I am overweight and in MFP now. I have high arches. I developed PF and was no longer able to walk when I played golf. Walking is how I kept my weight in check. Before I knew it, I had gained weight. I went to an orthopedic doctor in December and my treatment went as follows: Anti inflammatory with…

I started reading some of the other threads and it appears many use wraps as their base meals for at least lunch. (Wrap, lettuce, chicken or turkey, salsa or dressing as a base) I have done that some but used an unhealthier tortillia instead of a healthy wrap. Thanks
