Coffee is one thing that i won't deprive myself of. Coffee isn't bad for you, it's what you put in it. Almost any diet that I've ever been on has allowed coffee, just not the cream and sugar (which I drank A LOT of).... when I started MFP I switched to the sugar free creamers because I liked the flavor. I usually add a…

I'm getting mine out next week and hopefully a new one put in... is that something they do all in the same visit hopefully?? I love my Mirena! I'm sure I've gained weight since having it put in a little over 5 years ago... but that's because I got lazy, ate nothing but junk, didn't exercise, etc. I started MFP a few months…

I can't believe this was even a question asked. Why the heck would walking not count as exercise? I try to walk for at least an hour a day just to get my heart going and to burn off some of those extra calories. I also use an online calculator when I walk, I don't trust the calc on a treadmill, they are set standard for a…

I've done the wraps a couple of times. A friend of mine is a distributor. Honestly, every time I do them I lose around 4 inches total. You have to drink A TON of water when you do them, and then you just pee it out. Basically, it's flushing water weight.. They work, but I wouldn't honestly use them as a weight loss tool.…

The only reason I need to go to the bathroom all the time is because I drink a ton of water. I haven't noticed anything different since I started taking ACE as far as that goes. My sleep habits are the same, you aren't supposed to take the pill after noon or you might be up later than normal. You can get on the Saba…

I'm no expert, but I have been reading a lot online and here in the forum. If you are only eating 1200 calories and not eating back your exercise calories, there's your problem. You aren't getting enough calories. I agree with what others say, up your calories a little or start eating back what you work out, you need to be…

I've always been a sugar fanatic. When I was pregnant I ate so many reese cups that I can't hardly stand to look at them today. When I started to change my lifestyle, one of the first things that had to go was the high amounts of sugar in my diet. By tracking my sugars, I was able to really see just how much I was eating…

I have been taking ACE 3 days ago, so I can't really weigh in on long term results, but I started to take it for energy, not really weight loss per say. I tried the HCG diet in March and it literally wrecked my metabolism. That fad diet, I tried to lose weight, but I admit, it was insane. After that I started MFP and…

Isn't 1-2 pounds the healthy goal to lose per week? If you are losing a lot more than that, you are doing something extremely wrong. Dropping weight fast is unhealthy and 9 times out of 10, it comes back. 1.4 pounds in a week is awesome! You should be proud!

A couple of months ago I tried the HCG diet. I was so bound and determined to take weight off that the thought of losing 40 pounds in a month sounded so great. I bought the drops at Wal-Mart, what a waste of $. After 2 weeks of taking the drops (that did absolutely nothing) and starving myself by eating only 500 calories a…

I'm having some enchiladas from a Skinnytaste.com recipe (guilt free!) and probably some chips & queso. Just have to make up for that on the treadmill!
-
Skinnytaste is a lifesaver. We have been having our dinners from there every night for the past 2 months and it's something that the whole family loves. We haven't made anything that wasn't good! Tonight we had the chicken cordon bleu... mmmmmm amazing!

Don't even get me started! Skinnycow it the bomb dot com! Even their chocolate candies are heavenly!

I tried the miracle noodle kind with spaghetti and it really wasn't bad. I've never seen any other brand, but the ones I had said to rinse, then flash boil and add to food and they are supposed to take on the flavor of the liquids you are combining them with. If you wanted to try them with spaghetti, I'd suggest trying…

I purchased the "miracle noodles" on Amazon last month, I was a little scared to try them once I got them, but surprisingly, they are pretty good! I really lied the rice kind. For a pasta lover, these are a lifesaver and they fill you up!

The special k popcorn chips & popcorn crisps are pretty good snacks! You can eat around 28 for only 120 calories. I usually only eat half, it's a good quick snack and my daughter loves them!
