She doesn't get it...Ok so you are upset about her putting food in front of you. It is a conditional thing as you say an "Italian" thing. You need to politely put it I am not going to lose weight and get healthy unless you support me that you cannot eat what you used to including the heavy sauces carbs and oils that are…

Perhaps you need to prepare your'e own foods to consume and not join the rest and eat what they are It doesn't mean you can't eat with them just not eat what they do. I have to do that and its just my kids and myself. I have a bbq family event next weekend and there will be all kinds of foods I won't be able to eat. I will…

Many of us have the thousand and one excuses. I do happen to have a thyroid condition but that is not my sole reason for having a weight problem. Plain and simple I was eating wrong and not getting exercise. I haven't lost enough yet to compare with people who are still overweight. I am proud of myself for attempting to be…

it is delicious it needs to be cooked thoroughly or its too crunchy it is really like spaghetti but a vegetable you can treat it and eat it that way with sauce and cheese an amazing addition to your calories. Come to think of it I haven't had one this year! In other words.. its a big YAY from me......Lorrain

Tom you are brave to do this and so glad you are here. Be it ten pounds or a hundred. We are here. You will get the support you need here. the program is easy to follow and if you don't understand something please just ask. I am still new and learning each day. Of course there are going to be those days but keep pressing…

sorry I quoted that by mistake what I meant to say was agreeing someone is not necessarily a troll for asking a question we are not all rocket scientists or experts on MFP. I am still learning slowly about the program and what it does. I don't know all the ins and outs and am surely not a troll. Be kind not accusatory…

Sorry, but your boyfriend needs to support you. He needs to understand you are losing the weight for your health not to please him or get the remarks that he makes. If he truly has feelings for you then he should back you up a hundred percent. If not then you need to have a serious discussion with him about how you feel.…

skipping meals is one thing but starvation mode is another. I was full and satisfied last night and ended up with not using like 400 calrories and they told me when I closed my diary for the day that I was putting myself in starvation mode. It was not intentional. From now on I am going to eat what I am supposed to so I am…

awesome! so proud of you and you must be or should be proud of yourself. And you are so right. You have to fight for yourself each and everyday. I need to get that into my mindset. I have to keep positive. I was told yesterday by two members to not see my gaining two lbs my second week as a failure. Hey I lost two lbs in…

Please feel free to add me if you wish. I have only been…
-
No offense but why would a doctor tell you to eat less then 1200 its is NOT healthy to do so. You have a MFP vs your doctor and he or she doesn't want you to use this program.. MY doctor is the one who not only recommended MFP but he is also a client. The first weigh in when I went in for my bloodwork results we even…

many people do it for looks not health but in health you will look and feel better obviously. You have to do what works for you. there is nothing wrong with being a tad vain but put things in perspective good luck and feel free to add me if you wish for support

MFP was recommended by my doc because that is what HE uses. I was on WW online and besides it costing and MFP is free I would forget to log on and what kind of waste is that? now I am logging in each and every day being accountable for my eating habits and consumption.I have never done this sparkle you all speak of. (…

I have also been recently diagnosed with prediabetes with an A1C of 6.0 I wasn't told I couldn't have carbs if you follow MFP properly your carbs should be counted right for you. I have tried to curb my carb intake adjust how often I have said products Please feel free to add me for a support buddy would be happy to help…

I am fat too you are not alone and I agree hate talk is not healthy and if the pic of you is current you no offense have no right to say you are fat. most of us post our current pics or pics of what we want to look like but mostly the true us good luck

You shouldn't skip meals you don't necessarily have to do snacks but I find it easier to incorporate it all within my calories granted just started MFP but its plain sense to fit it all in. To each his own and you will find a balance as you go along. Take your total calorie allowance for the day and see if you can split it…
