I would log the amount that you used to baste the chicken... in my opinion it is always better to over estimate the calories than under estimate.

Go to Apps at the top menu > Click on FitBit Tracker (should say installed) > Click on the disconnect button. Hope this helps :)

Just taking the pill itself does not make you lose weight. It is an appetite suppressant so it helps you not be hungry all the time... when you stop taking the pill, it is just a matter of not going back to bad eating habits. As long as you keep logging your food and stay within your calorie goal you will be fine :)

I would love to be included too! I have 40 more to go :)

WOO HOO! Congratulations!

I agree with Jules - you are eating too low of calories. You really need to eat a minimum of 1200, but more if possible (how many does MFP tell you to eat if you wanted to lose 2lbs a week? then go with that). Use the meds to help you learn to eat responsibly, not to starve yourself. Choose foods high in protein to protect…

I have started taking Phentermine to help aid in my weight loss. however I am doing it differently than most probably are. I have really bad cravings/appetite during stress and hormonal periods. So I am only taking it when needed to help me have self control. So far, since January 1 I have only taken in 3 times. I think…

extra has gum flavors that taste just like the desserts - rootbeer floats, lemon squares, orange creamsicle, strawberry shortcake, etc. When I am having a craving I pop a piece in my mouth and my taste buds get all the flavors without all the calories :) Another thing that has helped me is to drink Diet Soda (Diet Coke,…

My favorite jeans (because I have big hips so I have the same problem as you do) is from the Dress Barn - Roz & Ali - they are a curvy cut and always fit perfectly!

I think most people are missing the point...I think dieting does suck... yet I still get my "treats" and stay within my calorie goal...what sucks about it is that I am always having to think about what goes in my mouth... does this fit in the calorie goal? I wish sometimes that I just didn't have to think about it, that I…

I agree with you - dieting DOES suck! Big Time! I don't really have anything profound to say that hasn't already been said.. just know that you are not alone! There are many of us who feel the same way. Don't give up, and I am proud of you for choosing to eat the Fiber One bar instead of the donut! WAY TO GO GIRL!

I would love to join :)

I love it when people who don't have money issues says that if you eat less then your grocery bill will be less :) I think they obviously don't really know what it means to live paycheck to paycheck or they don't have a family they also have to feed. I too live paycheck to paycheck, I have 4 children and a husband (so I am…

so today at the gym, this old cranky lady told me I need to wear clothes that made me look skinnier because I needed all the help I could get.... just shrug it off...

I personally love Curves.... it is an all women club that only takes 30 min for a total body workout. They have some awesome new classes that started this year too... Body Balance, Body Basics, and Stretch and Strengthen - and Jillian Michaels Classes as well. Most Curves locations have Curves Smart which is like having a…

So I have a question... I have a fitbit that is synced with MFP - I do the Curves Circuit 3 to 4 times a week - should I be putting in the calories for Curves?

I love to do challenges! Add me :) https://www.fitbit.com/user/2VDV7Z

AWESOME

nuts are a good source of healthy fat, and higher in calories. try some 2% milk instead of skim, or go for the full fat versions of foods instead of the fat free.

When I did my numbers I thought it was very high too.. but I just went with it and what do you know... I lost 7 pounds the first week! Yes! even though I though the numbers were high, they worked! I would go with what it tells you to. I know it seems high, but only having 1200 is not working for you... I think you need…

I used this site http://www.freedieting.com/tools/calorie_calculator.htm to figure out what I needed to do for the calories. It seems to work and has been recommended many times here on MFP

I have tried many of the simple and fit items on the ihop menu - they are very good in taste and size and it was nice to be able to go out with friends and still stay on plan :)

You might want to try Calorie Zig Zagging... it gives you days when you have lower calorie intake and days when you have high intake... it has really helped me with my motivation (I was in the same boat you are in)... but this gives me the opportunity to eat (in moderation) those foods that if I was a strict 1200 net I…

You could also try Chocolate Slim Fast :)

You are welcome to look over my dairy (it is public) to see if it helps you at all :)

Keep it! Love the gruff look :)

My advice would be to only eat 1/2 of what you are planning for dinner and use the rest of the calories to eat the rest of the day :)

I started calorie zig-zagging this week, and have lost 5 lbs already! It seems to be working for me right now. give me a couple more weeks and I will let you know

In men - arms and abs (I especially like the "v" at the bottom of the abs In Women - waist and hips area (the hourglass figure)
