  • AMEN!! I am 6 foot, 60 pounds over weight, stay under 1500 most days, and eat pretty much anything and do not lose ANY weight. If I am careful not to eat more than 60 carbs and not too much fat, I lose weight. If I don't sleep, I gain weight! I think the principal is good, but our bodies react in different ways.…

  • Fiber gummies and, in a pinch, aloe vera capsules, all with lot of water have made a HUGE difference for me. Good luck!

  • From what I understand, hemp has many other benefits other than the high, totally balanced protein content. I have been taking hemp seed, hemp protein and hemp milk and my health has improved drastically. Good stuff!!!

  • I like Almond milk.... I LOVE HEMP SEED MILK!! My goodness, so creamy & nutty tasting and crazy good for you. I buy it when it is on sale, so it goes for the same price as the Almond milk. I do not miss cow's milk anymore!

  • Sometimes I find it really difficult to eat 1200 and I am six foot tall!! I am in my fifties, but my metabolism is at a snail's pace. I attribute it to crazy dieting most of my life and health issues for the last 15 years. Even eating 1200 - 1350 calories a day, I have not lost any weight for the past 50 days. But I can…
    in I think I may actually get this.... Comment by divamom0122 May 2011
  • That is EXACTLY what I am experiencing! Very weird... I gained 3 pounds YESTERDAY. I checked my sodium and it was well below my limits... like 700 yesterday. BUT I did exercise more than usual the yesterday & the day before. As I have some pretty sever joint issues/arthritis I am guessing it is inflammation. I have written…
    in HELP!!!! Weight gain from inflamation!!!? Comment by divamom0122 May 2011
  • I feel just like you do! I do not eat out that often and I RARELY eat anything like fast food, but my calorie intake does run under 1200 at times and I do not get to exercise that much... health and time issues. I think you received some really great ideas, esp upping your water intake and improving the quality of your…
    in What am I doing wrong?? PLEASE HELP Comment by divamom0122 May 2011
  • Me, too! A big revelation came when, because I am 55 years old, I figured out that I only need like 1600 calories to stay alive! No metabolism anymore. So that 1200 diet I was following so closely resulted in 0 weight loss. Now I took it down a tad and lowered the carb intake to 100 per day. I am not so over-full (the…
    in I still feel like I am eating too much! Comment by divamom0122 April 2011
  • THANK YOU ALL!! My carbs are mostly fruit (apples, oranges, grapefruit & berries) and whole-grain breads. Not much pasta, white flour, no cookies or cakes! I don't really do salt much, and my sodium intake is well below the daily amount.. like 1/4. But my weight can fluctuate like 4 pounds from one day to the next...…
