I make sure to buy spices...either fresh or dried but things to add flavors. I also use Salsa's for dressings and for on meat or as a flavor for rice... I buy Great Value simply because well nice size jar, cheap and it taste great! Like White Corn and Black Bean Salsa or my new favorite Peach and Pineapple Chipotle Salsa…

I'm sorry you were offended it does hurt! I use that pain to try and change it, sort of as my extra power, like if I don't feel like walking today well how many more people think you are pregnant? things like that. As for the nurse I hate to say this, but yes there are people out there who are not only overweight but obese…

As horrible as some of these are... I'm glad that we can all share and see that pretty much no insult or comment is just about "me" everyone has a bad apple around them!

I have never heard the term seagan BUT that said when I was young they had Vegetarians and Vegans, a Vegetarian could eat eggs, any brand of bouillon (chicken) for flavoring and some added fish and/or poultry. A true Vegan did not eat eggs, only vegetarian bouillons (like Mrs. Whites) and no fish/poultry etc. They have…

So in other words YOU have no idea IF this works, how your body reacts to it (energy levels, hunger issues etc) or how to maintain the loss.... so once again you are like many who want to justify a liquid diet... sure they worked 20 years ago UNDER DR. supervision but obviously not over the long term because no everyday…

If you Dr. didn't recommend it then no! Drink water! If you are drinking enough water and watching your sodium level you will pretty much have control over water retention. When you retain water you are not eating correctly (high sodium) and/or not drinking enough water. Drugs are not good for you, and water pills tell you…

the abdominal pain could have been caused by any number of things... the bread choice, any oils? certain veggies or meat choices or sauce? depends on which one you had. Subway can be a healthy choice but you have to be careful in what you choose. I'm sorry meant to say, write down what all was on it and then see what was…

thank you! you made me cry and gave me renewed hope! Congrats on a living life!

ROFLMBO.... just want I needed to see thank you!

Well... I do understand what you are saying, I certainly do not think someone with only 20-40 lbs. to lose can relate to someone with 100+ (which is me too) I'd be glad to accept you if you want to add me, I post blogs every single day BUT I do not facebook diet so although you'd be welcome to my facebook I will not talk…

I close mine every night, it tells me what I ate that day with that days DATE on it. good or bad I know what I've done, I close it down and start fresh the next day doing things the same way if it's working, or try to fix a problem... simply moving forward.
-
I log it, or pre-log my dinner generally and when I do that I find it much easier to stay on target! I know what I can have for breakfast and lunch. I seriously do much better when I am doing it this way! If you pre-log your breakfast and lunch then that too I'd think would help a lot so you know what is left for dinner…

Thank you! I have never seen anyone outline it so perfectly! (Y)

I have notice this at other restaurants too and I think why? but I honestly think it's like you said, you have no other options when you pick the fit and trim meal where the others you can add a high calorie side, or hit the salad bar and load up on high calories... they they'd be accused of false advertising or something…
-
Well you can spoon off some of the gravy and I would have scraped off the cheese.. mushrooms and onions are good for you... as for Sams or any other brand of food, you can google it and/or you can enter in the food search on food entry page.. someone most likely will have put in Sam's or Sam's club chicken breast or…

Yes I plan them out, I go by the sale flyer for the two grocery stores I use. When my children were small (they are grown up and off now) I did the same thing and it worked well. That doesn't mean if you plan on having chicken on Tues and Fish on Sat that you can't switch them just means you plan out the foods you will…
-
Well I have seen MANY on here that use Slim Fast, Herbalife, Atkins and many others... so hunt around for those titles in the posts (if they don't come to you) I will be honest using anything but self-control, exercising and counting all your foods/drinks won't in my opinion (yep tried most all of them) work... but only…
-
It's not easy... I have a diabetes specialist for a Dr. and he said go on an Atkins type diet (high protein little carbs) my heart Dr. said no way... do you see my head spinning? :) So I developed a diet for me, I eat normal everyday foods in moderation, and I try to focus on veggies (mainly salads) and meat. As we age it…
-
Well.... it looks like you are asking for help, yet you are not listening! You have some people who have lost a lot of weight on here trying to advise you. I highly suggest you have someone at your gym, as in a fitness trainer look at your HRM and see if it is correct. If you aren't losing anything then something is not…
-
I totally agree with the above quote... set small goals and focus on that, pick some food you are going to stop eating or stop eating most of the time... I LOVE cake, so we came up with a plan, eat cake every month because there is a birthday every month in our family... (only my sister and I live near each other to…

you could, you can use feta just like you would blue cheese... some are afraid of feta but it's a good cheese for many things I like it on my burgers too

I use Walk Away I do the 3 mile fat blaster and I swear by it, you aren't just walking but working on all groups of muscles. I know when I stick to it I lose, how can you not if you are doing 3 miles in 45 minutes! I find all the Walk Aways work. My daughter lost down to near goal and she not only started out with Walk…

By Oct. you will be pretty much an expert on calories, portion sizes and what you should avoid. This is a vacation so enjoy it, eat a few things you know aren't on the OK list but it is actually OK to eat those foods now and then, so during this cruise is one of those now and then moments. I personally like to use the…

I agree... seems no reason, I mean if they aren't posting they aren't bothering you or anyone else and they might come back. The only reason I would take someone off my friends list is if they are doing something that bothered me.
-
you eat out a lot, so do we (I) easy to make the wrong choices, so you need to think then order... so at McDonalds instead of those large fries you could have had a salad! if you really wanted the fries get a small. Stop drinking full calorie drinks, Lemonade and Sweet Teas... not good, when you go to a restaurant like…

I don't think there is any way to stop her but maybe tell her or ask her if she'd like to run outside and tell the world that she wants to kill you... which is what not losing wt. will do... OK maybe tell her what you are doing and why and tell her you love her so much you want to stay healthy to be around a long time and…

Well I guess we all have our reasons and many to look 'normal' but here is what you will have when you turn 40 by doing all this, you will have a healthy body and a happy heart! That right there is more important than anything. So you actually will have achieved more than many ever do... priceless! (trust me they will envy…

I'd say you are counting it the right way... I do see people count cleaning house and dang they count high burns! but no cleaning house is not, in my opinion counted unless like you said it's major cleaning! If you aren't breathing hard and/or sweating then that is not a workout! (in my opinion lol)

Nope they are not!
