Ok thank you so much for all of your input. I've learned a lot. You guys are the best ❤

Exactly!! That's why I wanted to know the ranges of fat burning for HR. My HR at rest is about 55 so do I double it to find my range?

I've given it a few months. It's harder for me bc of my age and my thyroid. Deficit isn't good enough. I would have to eat under 1000 calories to see any results and then I'd be starving and would end up screwing up. I need to work out also but I want to know the best HR to burn fat. Some people say around 120-130.

Yes I do have a smart phone. I will check,out that app but I notice a lot of apps are too advanced for me. I log my food every day and stay within my calorie goal of 1200 but can only lose about 5 pounds. I have to include a workout

Calorie reduction doesn't seem to work! I'll lose a few pounds bit that's it. I have to include a workout. At my age my metabolism slowed down tremendously. What is the best way to burn fat? Is it higher HR? I read it's 60% of the maximum rate but I don't know what that means. My normal HR is 55

I don't like the new "like" button to use instead of support comments. I only like it to "like" a comment that is written. Not in place of a comment. I think it takes away from the "personal touch"

Any organ meats, balls or feet

When I drink it's Absolut manderin on the rocks. I just work it in to my calories. No sugary drinks.

How do you change it from metric to American. (cm to in.)?

how is everybody doing???

Hi I'm Jo Ann. I'm 56 and in for the long haul. Add me if you like. I log in every day and love the support we all give each other.

O I AM ignoring them. I tried to talk civilly to them and they attacked me. They are VERY bitter. Maybe they need to eat a bit more. HAHA!! They might be a bit more pleasant.

You are very condescending and nasty. Thanx for the support!!!

No I'm not giving up. I'm not going to eat a pizza (although I'd like to ????). For example. I had a rib eye steak and a huge salad for dinner. Immediately after that I had 2 wedges of laughing cow cheese and pretzels. Then I got a sweet tooth. I didn't want to have a pint of ice cream. That's the snack I want to knock…

Ok whatever. I thank you all who responded to my question. My question wasn't if I was eating enough. My question was low cal snacking food. But thanx anyway This thread turned into a debate on my caloric intake.

Jeeeez!

YES THAT IS MY PROBLEM. As I stated before I'm NOT hungry. Just have the urg to snack. Thank you!! ????

wow yea! light popcorn!!! totally forgot about that. Hmmmm..... Thx my friend

No I don't add back my work out caleries. I'm so undisciplined i'm afraid if i am not strict I will fall. I have to be very strict or i royally mess up. It's all or nothing at all with me.

I just ordered the Fiber One bars on line. Now i'm excited..

i like that. thx

I'm 56 and it's very hard for me to lose weight. I've been heavy most of my adult life. I work out and do the treadmill on my days off. If i eat the 1200 I will maintain but not lose. (I think) I've been on this plan since July 31 and only lost 13 pounds. Not alot. I don't get hungry all the time but sometimes I just want…

Protein bars sound good too. Lots of good suggestions here. Thx everyone. You are the best. I love this site

Diet Hot Chocolate sound yummy! ;-)

Thats an idea. thanx

Yes i'm eating enough, I just hate to go over the 1200 calories.

O Yea, I like that one. Me too, just for today I will do that! ????

Hi I'm 56 and been fighting the weight battle for most of my adult life. Up and down like a Yoyo! Want to do it for good this time and think I can with all you're help. This is the best and most supportive site I've ever been on. Thank you all. ????I also got a fitbit and love it.

Just for today I will get on the treadmill & do 5 miles

Just for today I will do some extra walking
