Thanks everyone. If I'm making a recipe (like chili, or my enchilada meat) I will include the spices I use.... but if I'm just tossing spices on a couple of breasts of chicken, I don't generally bother. With regards to the cooking spray, I am not planning on measuring how much I am using, or counting how long I am…

This same thing just happened to me! I got to 187 and then 188 and then today 189!!!! WTHECK!!!!!!! I know mine is related to TOM and water retention, but it still makes me frustrated as heck. And when *I* get frustrated I turn to food. it's REALLY easy to turn to when all the goodies are hanging around in the teacher work…

I am 5'0" and started this 'journey' at 234.5 pounds!!!!! I have lost 47 pounds and still have at least another 50 to go. All of the "researchers" say I should weigh between 100-120 pounds, but I can't even begin to imagine myself at that range. I am aiming for 130-140. It's a process... a journey.... a life style change.…

I like my wine in the evenings too. I've found that I am EXTREMELY carb and sugar sensitive when it comes to losing / gaining weight. On that vein, I also found that the sweeter the wine, the worse off I am weight wise. I have found that Chardonnay doesn't affect me like Pinot Grigio does. Maybe experiment with wines and…

My helpful tip (or one that is working for me) is to make sure to make enough food so that there is at least ONE serving of a left over. I am single and have very little motivation to cook, but having left overs keeps me on track (and not eating out for lunch while at work) and makes sure I am eating something healthy for…

I went low/no carb for several months on the HCG diet a few years ago - and once I introduced them back in, I gained the weight back. I try to remain low carb most of the time (as I learned how sensitive my body is to them), but occasionally it's something I need to have (I have rice or pasta once a week). Best of luck to…

I'm single and doing my best to get sexy again ;-)

I've been eliminated because of my weight (unfortunately) often, but I automatically eliminate smokers and people who are still legally married when they try to date me.

5'0" HW: 234.5 CW: 225 GW: 135 I seem to do well, and then blow it. I've lost 60 pounds and got into the 160's, then gained it back.... This time I've started exercising. Last week I did really well with eating and exercising, but too much wine kept me from losing any (in fact, I gained). Here's to (sadly) no wine this…

The first thing I would suggest is having a protein with your meals. Hashbrowns, oranges and apples all break down into essentially carbs - sugars - which have no fuel to burn (protein). Pick 1 fruit in the morning rather than two and add a protein - it should help :)
