My wife and I have a goal and reward. Ok, it is a contest. In 10 weeks to lose 8% lbs. If we individually make our goal, we get $50 at the end of the 10 weeks. Whoever wins overall gets another $50. I guess that is my milestone is when I meet my goal weight for 10 weeks. Now I will have still another 25 lb's to lose after…

That number will vary from person to person. I am 6 foot 5 " and my wife gets frustrated when I tell her that my goal calorie number is 1700 and hers is 1100.

I use 1 packet a day (10 calories) that is the powder that goes into my water. I have tried a few different flavors and the lemonade, strawberry with caffeine taste the best. The grape is a week flavor. In regards is it bad or good. For calories, I feel it is great and I always drink it in the morning and if I do need…

To me, I use different calorie calculators and put my height, weight, sex, age in and all of them use usually one of 4 different types of calculations. For me, I take all 4 of them to lose 2 lb's a week and then I average that number and that begins my calorie number.

Besides counting calories, I found the low calorie density foods are awesome. Gotta love when I have chicken soup and a salad. That actually makes me feel fuller for a longer time than eating a burger that has more calories.

Because I am on a diet, I weigh myself once a week (every Sunday morning). When I am not dieting, it is more like once a month, ok maybe once every 2 months.

Thank you.
