Kudos!

I like the idea that, even though I watch what I eat to make sure it's healthy and wholesome, once in a while I can pick a junk food item and work it into my daily calorie allowance and still feel like I did a good job for myself. I guess the key words here are "healthy", "wholesome" and "once in a while". :smile: A…

What's up with the trolling? I'll never understand why some people get invested in things that don't interest them. If you don't like the topic, get off the thread. Serously, you dont have to be a genius, it's written in the title... :yawn:

Wow, looks good, thanks for sharing/bumping!

I'm glad you guys like the idea! We use a meat sauce, but this meal can be tweaked in so many ways. It's one of my favorites and I don't even think aboout using pasta anymore. That calorie-dense white stuff doesn't even taste anything anyway!

Your diet will only be ruined if you let it. It's a mental challenge, let's see if you blow the whole thing off and go back to your old habits for good, or if you get yourself back on track and persevere. I'm rooting for you. :smile:

KFC- not that it doesn't taste good, but so many calories in one sitting should be against the law :devil:

I think I get what you're saying. In my experience it turns out I was kidding myself on some major parts of the weight loss process; I thought I was eating less, or healthier, but in reality I was just over-compensating with different foods. If you have been trying to lose weight for most of your life and have not…

Same here; shopping for pants is downright torture. :grumble: I usually have better luck with "A" shaped dresses, which flow at the bottom and shows your smaller waist.

People seem to forget that when you start with a regularly high calorie intake, any decrease in calories will make a difference. If your intake is a steady 3000 cals per day, dropping it to 2000 cals per day would create a deficit of 1000 cals per day. If 3500 cals equals one pound, you would lose a pound in 3 days. Of…

Yes, it's basically water weight.

I've read about this diet too, basically eat only fruits from morning until lunch time, the purpose being that fruits eaten alone are digested very quickly (within 30 minutes) and that their time spent in your intestines are most well spent (better than in your stomach along with other foods) and this is were your body…

Not all fluids are equal so you might be hurting your diet by drinking the wrong fluids. Water is good for you, the more, the better. Coffee, however, is another story. What do you put in it? Calories add on fast, one teapoon of sugar at a time, make sure not to underestimate your calorie intake with fluids.
