I drink Diet Coke every day, several times a day, does not cause cravings or headaches. Has not had any effect on weight loss either. I also try to drink lots of water as well. To each their own.

Wow! You look great. Having a goal and sticking to it seems to be the "secret." actually, for me calories in and calories out, and logging everything has been the secret.

When I started this journey, I knew that if I tried to restrict certain foods I would fail. I eat pizza about once a week, but 3pieces instead of the whole pizza. Very satisfied with that. I too like whoppers, but now I am more than satisfied with a whopper Jr. Don't feel deprived, am losing (Long way to go), and making…

Wonder if it could be modified to reduce calories?

Expecting 7 or 8.

bump for Christmas dinner!:wink:

Over the years, I think I have tried nearly every weight loss program in the known world...at least it has felt that way! By tracking and counting calories with MFP, I have lost about 46 pounds in 3 months without feeling like I am on a diet, or feeling deprived. (still have pizza once a week!) Tracking calories in and…

I use 100 cal Orville redenbacher, spray with butter flavor cooking spray, put on a bit of garlic salt, and a bit of parm cheese. Gotta try the Old Bay. Sounds great.

I have discovered that for me, portion control means weighing almost everything I eat. Suggest investing in a good scale that has both ounces and grams.

Bump for later

Love peanut butter and potato chip sandwiches. Also, after opening a new jar of peanut butter, the first taste is scooped out with fingers. Leftover stuffing from Thanksgiving is best eaten cold.

Good stuff, and hummus does make a great veggie dip!

Real men love salad!

Kung pao bump for the recipes.

Bumpa yummy!

I love them on the George Foreman. Wash and dry, then spray with butter flavor cooking spray. Put whatever seasoning you like and rub it in. Sometimes lemon pepper, maybe garlic pepper... Old Bay is good, cajun seasoning is good too... What ever you like. Sometimes marinate in teriyaki sauce. Don't over cook, but not easy…

Great stuff here! Bump for later. :yawn:

Having a good scale was very necessary for me to learn portion sizes. I continue to weigh nearly everything at home. That has helped me be better at estimating portion size and calories when eating out.

I have learned...over many years of trying this diet and that weight loss product, etc., that it is best to not say anything, and let the results speak for themselves. Of course, then you will have the naysayers that will tell you you've lost too much, or you will never be able to keep it off. If I were to let other people…

I'm wondering who shamed the OP over her eating habits? :O

Friday night is pizza night at my house. Sometimes store bought frozen, sometimes delivery. Work it into your macros and calories. More veggies the better of course, but you can still occasionally work in pepperoni and sausage. Works for me.

OK, not particularly healthy, but I worked it in. Whopper junior no cheese, baby carrots, navel orange.

Keep up the great work!
