Broccoli, beans, raspberries, pear, apple, PRUNES

You are possibly retaining water, especially if the weight loss has stopped for only a couple of days. If you keep eating 1,000 calories you will surely lose more weight. Patience is key. You should eat more than 1,000 calories but I totally understand if you can't. Anyways, if you've been eating salty foods like pickles,…

you all look great :)

i've been stuck in losing weight too. i think the best thing is to eat more fruits and vegetables for snacks instead of carbs and a really filling breakfast to get you through the day

Ooooo the meal replacement shake in the morning sounds soo good. I usually find myself really craving things after breakfast because I don't eat enough for it but oh my gosh that shake would totally hold me over until lunchtime. The problem is their price :/ but I might have to try it. I have a huge jug of protein powder,…

Hi, I usually try to eat 1,200 a day for my weightloss goal. I just started logging on this account because I forgot the password for my old one with all of my old diary entries on it. I think my diaries are public though if you want to take a look. For breakfast I either have nothing, or I have something really small.…

Wow it's actually really weird that you posted this. I got some chocolate almond milk likeee a month or so ago, and there's been like a 1/4 of it left for quite some time now. It doesn't expire until the 22nd but I was going to drink some yesterday and when I opened it, it smelled really spoiled!! I thought it was my…

the brownies with the "herbs" would definitely take the potluck party to another level haha

I always make this (but I don't know if it's potluck appropriate) - Spaghetti! Ok so, you buy a few cans or a couple jars of tomato sauce and put it in a large sauce pan. Take some carrots and shred small pieces into the sauce. No one can tell they are there but they are getting vitamins from carrots when they eat the…

Hmmm yes this is a tricky call. If she seems like she is kind of obsessing about the way she looks and trying to lose weight when she is perfectly average for her age I would say don't get her one and try not to let her see you wearing one since this might give off an unhealthy vibe for her if she is already displaying…

Yeah I've heard about this too. Unfortunately I haven't made lists for my shopping and I still tend to by whatever my stomach tells me it's wanting. I might try to make a list though after hearing someone else mention it

I agree, but they're better than a bag of doritos, not to mention the breads have less preservatives in them than the ones found in the bread isle. Either way, I was talking more about the proteins, veggies, and nuts that are found on the perimeters of stores. And also to someone else who said the grocery stores are…

WOW!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations. You look like a new woman. I am so proud of you! The career I am going to have in a couple of years is all about these kind of success stories and it's so amazing to see such a transformation from a lovely person. You also look like you've gained some really healthy muscle and you look…

I've never thrown my scale away but I do keep it under my bathroom sink which makes it harder to get to so I don't weigh myself as much as I used to. I used to weigh myself like 7+ times in a single day. I'm going through a rough patch right now so I weight myself a couple times in the morning but that's it. I think it's a…

I love pizza so much. If I eat it, which is probably once a week, I try to make it as healthy as possible. For instance, I buy the pizza dough mix from a box and prepare it at home, use pizza sauce, and mozzarella cheese. Then I can add on veggies! Veggies when cooked have amazinnng benefits especially tomatoes. They…

I've heard that drinking water while eating makes digestion slow down because of the acid being diluted in your stomach. My nutrition professor always said to drink water 30 mins before and 30 mins after eating. I've been trying to drink less fluids during meals but I'm not noticing much of a difference with bloating or…

I think that I drink about 4, 16.9 fl oz water bottles. should probably be drinking a bit more than that though... i think?

me and my boyfriend who lives together probably spend about $70 on groceries per week. With that being said, we do occasionally eat out. From the grocery store we usually buy ingredients and end up making home-made meals. Being a student on a budget is hard work lol

the key to healthy shopping is to stay on the perimeter of the store !! all the unhealthy junk is in the middle and on the end caps of isles

yeah now I'm craving ben + jerry's too lol. my favorite one is the one with the chocolate covered potato chips in it

You don't have to eat anything to have healthy weight loss, yes these foods (broccoli and salmon) will help aid you since they are low in unhealthy nutrition and high in healthy nutritional value. If you have negative net calories for the day, you've lost weight. You should also include your BMR (normal metabolic rate)
