Did you ever happen to find out if it was anything medical? This has been happening to me recently, sometimes with only 1-2 drinks I will start puking. I don't know what to do since I have never had this issue before. It is one thing to drink way too much and start puking - I completely understand that. But within the last…

even better, she is a coach for the contestants UK Biggest Loser ! LOL

Mac & Cheese is 400 calories per cup - eeek!

What you did wrong was weigh at night... at a different time of day than normal. I also weigh 2-3lbs more in the evening than I do during my morning weigh ins. You could however definitely be eating more - 1200 should be your minimum.

Welcome! I lost all of my weight here on MFP and reached my goal weight in roughly 5-6 months. It helped keep me accountable with every thing I put into my mouth. For the most part I am not very active, but fairly sedentary (with my desk job) however do try to run on the treadmill once a week or in summer I would take…

Sensible Portions Veggi Straws are something I just started trying. Some taste a lot like chips and you get a lot of straws for low amount of calories!

I have been hearing a lot about fitbits helping people maintain their weight and now I am curious! Sorry for the silly question, but I wasn't able to find out quite how it works by searching around. Does it just give you your calories burned and you are expected to eat under that for the day to maintain?

I agree! This is not a diet, it is a way of life. While I understand what you guys mean by "cheat day", I simply can't stand that term! If you think you can go your whole life without eating any junk you crave, you are probably only fooling yourself and setting yourself up for disappointment. Treating yourself is a normal,…

What a wonderful story and such amazing results, you did a great job taking control of your life! Congratulations :) Shows that with hard work, motivation and dedication we can achieve so much!

After realizing that 97 is not a typo, oh hunny! As everyone else in the thread, am pretty concerned by that number. In one of your previous posts you said you were "Seeking help", but seeing as how you have lost 2-3 more lbs IN A WEEK and are still running on the tredmill for an hour a day.... I would suggest you seek…

I am sorry to say dear, but it sounds like you are already "that girl". You can not be too afraid to say it aloud and clearly realize there is a problem since you are expressing your feelings here and realize there is a problem. If you continue to keep going the way you are, you will be extremely unhealthy under 100lbs.…

I told my fiancé that I get a shopping spree! Clothes, Bras, Shoes - the works! I have been doing my best to buy minimal amount of clothing during my weight loss (since I planned on just losing more) but now I am only ONE pound away and I can't wait :)

I enjoy cheese sticks (light around 50-60 calories each), a serving of pretzels (around 110 calories for 20 depending on type you get) or Almonds (150 for 1 oz or so)

I typically leave 400-600 for dinner, depending on what I will be having then save an extra 100-150 for a night time snack (I try to have something small like a cheese stick + carrots or almonds).

There was a point where I would stand on the edge of the sink and only use the corner of the mirror to apply my makeup and would avoid seeing myself in shopping store windows etc :( At that point I realized I wasn't the same girl who would stop and look in a car window to fix my hair and think "god I look cute!". I never…

My goal started as 145 (I am 5'3'' and started at 186) but I have always had more of a size goal priority. I would like to be a size 7 pants. Right now 9's are starting to feel a bit loose, so I am close :) But now that I have reached my goal weight, I have lowered it to 140 + toning. I realized that after 3 kids my little…

Mine have gone down a little, but not a lot. Mostly around by bust line. I went from a 40DD to a 36D. However my breasts have always been reasonably large (over a C cup) since I have been in 5th grade, despite not having a lot of extra weight then :( So I can't imagine they would get a whole lot smaller for me.

I personally think 1400-1500 is a great goal! Upping my calories did get me through my plateau last month, but it will be a little different for everybody. I think 1400-1500 is also more reasonable so that when you are closer to your goal weight you can slowly up by 100 calories each week to a weight maintain number. That…

What a great idea with the presents, I wish I had thought of that! I set my goal weight to lose 45lbs when I started a little over 3 1/2 months ago. I am now getting pretty close so the little presents wouldn't be nearly as rewarding to do them still :( But definitely a great idea! I do agree with the others, 50lbs in that…

I agree with the first poster! While you are doing great eating good foods and working hard, it is hard to say something isn't working until you have given it a fair shot. I would recommend strictly logging your calories (everything that enters your mouth) for 3-4 weeks and if you see no change then maybe reassess and see…

I had the same exact thing happen! When I first started a couple months ago the 1200 calories a day as working great! I now typically net 1300-1400 a day and find myself hungry so much more than when I started. Also craving man more things. I do know however when I first started I was eating much healthier foods (lots of…

This sounds so yummy & perfect for me! Do you think I could get away with replacing the yogurt with almond milk, or would it be too runny?

I used to but after much research I have switched to Pepsi One. It is still tech. a "diet" drink but it is sweetened with splenda instead of aspartame and is supposed to be better for you in that regard (I believe diet rite is also made with splenda instead). I was less worried about the weight effects of diet drinks…

I don't drink often but every couple weeks when with family or friends I do like to have a couple as well :) Typically I plan ahead on these days and get my large workout in early, then eat less for breakfast and lunch knowing I will be needing to adjust for the alcohol calories later. When I do drink I found a Mikes Hard…
