  • I am seconding the idea to carry a 24 oz. container. I am for emptying it 3 times a day, putting me at 9 servings of 8 oz. I also aim for 3 sodas a day. So I make myself put the water before the soda! Finish one before my lunchtime coke, another before my dinner soda, and the last one before my evening snack drink. I went…
  • I haven't given up my beloved diet coke, and probably never will. I do try to limit myself to 3 cans a day for lunch/dinner/snack. I cut back on it to control my sodium intake (and thus my water weight). I used to drink a lot more though, so to help me cut back I've started keeping a large travel cup of ice water at my…
  • If you go over, stop while you're ahead. I mean, it not perfect advice, if it was that easy to follow we'd all hit our goal everyday! But I know so many people who will say 'Oh, I already messed up my diet for today, so I'll have a second helping of the thing that made me go over and get back on it tomorrow... or the next…
  • Thanks for the help! I will try low fat milk after I finish this gallon. I was just worried because I usually try to budget for something sweet at the end of the day.
  • Show off some skin! Those cute little mini-skirts, mid-riff baring tops, bikinis, they'll all be mine! I have a long torso, combined with my big ole gut I am always fighting to keep it from oozing out of my clothes, but at 150 I will have it and I will flaunt it! Feel perfectly fine with myself at Thanksgiving when I'm…
  • This is my first time on MFP, but 4-5 years ago I lost a lot of weight when I became a vegan. I quit that lifestyle because it caused a lot of friction with my mother, and as my health deteriorated I was spending my whole paycheck on doctors and pills, with little left over for food. Then I was fired, which left me with…
  • I am gonna second the recommendation of powdered PB. I forget what brand I use since I don't have a jar in the pantry right now, and I don't know how different the calories are, but I get it out of the health food aisle at Kroger and it is delicious. Like others say, PB is more calories, but it is also a healthy snack, so…
  • Felt like I was going to die on day 1, now I am on day 10 and have lost an inch or half-inch in several places on my body. The user who suggested 30 days for each level has a good idea, that is how my sister did it, she has not lost much weight but she looks amazing. Google some before/after pics for the Shred to keep you…
  • My 11 yo charge is about 100 lbs. Just imagine a small boy standing next to you. That is the weight you've lost! You've lost A WHOLE 5TH GRADER! Also, malls are never a good place to shop for clothes if you go to the trendy~ stores that cater to size a 4 16 yo. Look around at some different shops or even online and I'm…
