:) last time I lost 89 pounds and only went from a 22 to an 18 in some jeans... So this time around I am glad to see me actually shedding sizes.

Oh and to add.... I am 263 and was around 289 when I bought them. And I am about 5'4" and a half-ish.. Very wide hips. Big booty. Thick thighs. These are snug but stretchy too and they don't "grow" as you wear them... Like Lane Bryant jeans.

I have a HORRIBLE time with jeans.... My hips are larger than my waist and my thighs are large and I'm short.... I found the BEST jeans ever at Torrid! They fit amazing and are the perfect length.sadly I got them in Colorado and we don't have a Torrid anywhere near here yet.... But we will have one next month about an hour…

You should try it. It's fantastic! My husband requests it almost every night.

;) oh I know it want directed toward me. I was just chiming in on tennisdudes argument OP is in his own little world. And he just sort of mashed 100 different "diets" together

Lol ok I know you are being facetious BUT... You should try this chicken I've been making!! We eat it a few times a week. Take chicken breast and top with fresh basil paste and wrap in bacon and when it's completely cooked top with mozzella until melted! Even though you weren't actually asking what to cook for dinner ;)

I agree. What I eat I consider normal.. I don't think I am eating abnormally.... Who is to say pizza and sandwiches and Taco Bell are normal but meat and veggies aren't normal.

Hope there is one in April as well. I'm at 55 so far. So I made the 35 and passed it but not my personal goal of 100. (Maybe next month)

If I ever even make smoothies I make a double batch so my husband can have half.... So I always with after or I don't know how much I'm actually getting. But I suppose yes i do scrape the sides into his cup

Thank you for the message. That may be so. But every day I hear how I'm wrong about everything that comes out of my mouth when I'm here from one person or another and it gets tiresome. It was my opinion from what I have personally observed.... I didn't need to be repeatedly told I was wrong when I've experienced it first…

Zero... And my husband tipped 10 dollars at a buffet a few months back where all the kid did was bring us our drinks and then only one time way later someone else refilled them ... Wanted to smack him.

I don't... I weigh what I actually eat....

Lol LOVE LOVE LOVE this!

How long does it take to slow down? Last time I lost 89 pounds in 5 months and it never slowed down. This time since I HAVE to do it for medical reasons I am curious when it will slow and when I should move to OWL. Ive been planning on staying in induction until I reach my first goal and then moving on.

I do total carbs... I never use any of the products at all... Bars, meals, shakes and such... My carbs are 25g a day BUT if I end up at something like 28 and it's veggie carbs I just let it go... But that very rarely happens.

Mine is 5% carb 65% fat And 30% protein I just played around with it until it carbs where I wanted it and protein and them of course the rest went into fats

Well if that's what you were trying to say... Like I said a few words were missing from your original post because thats not what you said at all... But yes please keep telling me how I'm wrong for what I've viewed first hand because that is my favorite... Except I won't know you are because I am blocking you. Continue…

I LOVE to cook. And I have been told that I am fantastic at it...... And I still cook and my husband still loves it and doesn't even realize it's "diet food" But you can maybe rationalize it anyway you want but the end game is still the same...

I'm not sure what that means at all... I think there are some words missing there so I'm not sure what to take from that. But both of my cousins "quit meat" this month just because it makes them feel icky.... And no one is trying to shove a steak in their face But I am insulin resistant so I quit sugar and everyone is…

Chicken with basil and bacon and mozzerella and balsamic roasted Brussels sprouts.

Thank you. Yes so far is is helping my symptoms tremendously. I find it easy to stick with... Thank goodness I've always been more of a carnivore. And it DOES cause a change in the way your breath smells.. It smells almost sweet but not terrible bad...

I do some of each. One day I'll do higher weights and lower reps and some days I'll do lower weights with higher reps. I mix it with cardio as well. Other days I walk. Some I do step aerobics. Some I jog.....

Exactly! 100% ^^^

I wanted to name my Remy Loki instead but my husband protested.. Sad too because it fits him SO well!!

I normally do too... But just curious.... Last night I made steaks and mine was .71 pounds and after I "killed it and killed it and then killed it again" as my husband calls it.( it has to be well done for me).. It was .65 and after I trimmed the fat it was around .59 I counted it as the .71 but now I'm wondering why... I…

I loved it too!! I'm a major Eliza Dushku fan though! Did anyone ever watch her show Tru calling? That one was phenomenal!

I used to eat the big steam in bag bags of edamame every day for lunch and my husband kept telling me how bad it was for me.... But could never quite tell me why
