Personally, I prefer Chobani nonfat plain yogurt with fresh fruit and Bear Naked Fit natural granola (or unsalted almonds). I have also used it to make post workout protein shakes -- it is wonderful there as well. Good luck!

Yes, I am well aware of this. But, the "jump start" needs to be based on healthy habits. Yes, this is a fact; I mentioned this in my previous reply to you. It is nothing more than simple math. This is why you *count* calories to begin with -- to ensure that you burn more than you take in. While optimal nutrition is not…

Water in relation to metabolism: http://press.endocrine.org/doi/abs/10.1210/jc.2006-1438 Aside from cellular/health/metabolic benefits, it works well to prevent unnecessary over eating or exceeding the daily calorie budget. Nutrition is most important -- this is why I mentioned counting calories first. While you mention…

^^ Do not listen to this at all. Obviously, someone needs to use their "Google machine" and research a.) the role that water plays to maintain the human metabolism, the role that exercise plays in the human metabolism, and how the lack of either, over a period of time, will cause the metabolism to slow and adapt to the…

^^ THIS. And by toxins, why don't they just call the "toxin" what it is: s**t. All you are doing is using diuretics to empty your bowels. Period.

^^ NOT this. This is a recipe for a.) disaster, b.) bad health, and c.) yo-yo dieting. As soon as you hit your "goal", you will immediately gain 20 lbs. back when you *attempt* to transition to a maintenance diet.

Whether your record daily or weekly (I prefer weekly), try to weigh in at the same time (roughly) each time.

Reading some of the idiotic responses on here is making my face HURT. :noway:

Just portion control and use whole wheat pasta.. I've also grown quite fond of quinoa. The quinoa is not quite the same, but it can take many different flavorings well.

Perfectly fine. You are still well under your BMR and 1,500 calories in itself is not a "bad" calorie budget at all.
