I an miserable it I don"t get a small breakfast. And I take it out on everybody! My teenager, however, can"t bear the though of breakfast and my hubby can go either way. Everyone is different. Listen to your own body and it will tell you what it needs.

Relationships should be about supporting the other's good decisions and helping them through the bad ones. He needs to re-evaluate his role in your good decisions and put your well being ahead of his selfish desires.

Yes! I focus on proteins, it can be challenging though. Fish like tuna or salmon are great additions to your diet.

Add me if you like!

Patty melt with extra grilled onions... dripping with grease...

Added! The more, the merrier!

My first husband was a bad boy. Huge mistake! My girlfriend talked me into dating a nice guy, and seven years later we are happily married. Wow, what a difference! I will never get tired of being treated right and respecting my hubby!

Chicken noodle soup. Mmmmm!

I'm just going to sit here quietly and wait for pork or protein to killong me...

Tuna, grilled chicken, roasted turkey, ham, eggs... any of these wrapped in a Romaine lettuce leaf with a bit of mayo or salad dressing (just enough for flavor). 2 % cottage cheese is awesome and satisfying,

I an now considering an all chemical diet. It sounds delish!

I slice a large zucchini, yellow squash, and an onion and saute them with a large can of diced tomatoes. It's cheap and makes about 6 cups/servings of delicious low cal goodness!

I have cheat days once a week and have made good progress. These are not days where I eat everything in site, but merely days where I can have those few foods I have been looking forward to enjoying that are not especially healthy. Cheat days should involve reasonable portions, junk food, and no calories/macro math.…

I was thin for many years and then I quit smoking and gained a ton of weight almost overnight it seemed! That coupled with my menopausal changes kept the weight on. For me, this is recapturing my lifestyle, rather than changing it.:tongue:

Nope, no change. Either baked beans and wine or cheesy cauliflower soup and wine.

Dill pickles and V8. Yum!

Drama queens/kings Negative people People who say lend instead of borrow (and vica versa).

It helps me when I eat small meals every two hours or so. It keeps me dropping the pounds and getting used to small portions.

Hello! I am a transplanted Chicagoan currently (and permanently) living in the Appalachian Mountains. I will turn 50 in September and plan to look awesome by then. I'm a computer programmer, I raise chickens, turkeys and pigs, AND make my own wine. Which makes me very popular with my friends!:drinker: I have lost 17 lbs in…

Thanks! Laughing that hard burns calories :happy:

Between 2-5 pm after lunch and before I leave work.

I find that eating smaller, more frequent meals (6-7 a day, roughly every 2 hours until 8pm) helps me take off weight, even if I eat the same things I normally would in 3 sittings. I think it helps speed up the metabolism and it certainly gives me more energy.

I am dieting alone, no one else in my family or friends circle has joined me in dieting, but my husband supports my new lifestyle and cooks whatever I ask for dinner. Part of new new lifstyle is to do more physical activities(mainly walking) on the weekends and he joins me. As a side effect, even though he is not actively…
