  • I have the mostly the same thing every morning. One slice of whole wheat toast with hummus (2 tablespoons). T

  • Good luck. It is a great program. If you are doing CLEAN EATING and calorie counting that is a lot of change at once. If you decide to buy some pre-packaged food - be kind to yourself. I read another MFP who said, "IF YOU BITE IT, WRITE IT". That is great advise. Be diligent about logging everything and get a really good…

  • Thanks so much for your explanation on NET carbs. I am afraid to say -I am a carb freak and love them. Thanks again for the help!

  • Wow - good for you! It is not arrogant of you at all - you worked hard and accomplished something that was difficult and took a lot of time and effort. Be proud! Also, it is good that you have joined MFP. Remain vigilant. I imagine that the Success Story blog that you wrote and the twitter to help others is very cathartic.…

  • I don't know if your math is correct - but I have a suggestion. Orville Reddenbacher 100 calorie smart pop mini bag! Try them - it takes the guest work out of measuring and can stop you from overeating.

  • Week-ends are hard for me and so are days of the week. Why - because I love to eat at night (and veg in front of the TV)! So I "bank" some of my calories for the evening so I can have that snack before bed. Yes - not the best - but if I keep to the right amount of calories - I will lose weight. I can't burn it off as…

  • Don't be ridiculous. 12 pounds that is great. 3 day binge - get back on the bandwagon. It took you a lot more time than that to gain the weight. Everyday is a new day and you get a new chance everyday. It will only suck you under if you tell yourself you are a failure, which you are not. It is not easy - why do you think…

  • Hi there, I am from Canada and I was wondering if you wanted a Canadian Myfitnesspal friend. I just joined and so far I find the program amazing. I have stuck to it without a lot of problem and just got my first "Myfitness pal" yesterday. I don't know how to send a friend request, but if you want to send me one, please do.

  • Wow - I decided to respond because what you had to say, I found very interesting. I was on Jenny Craig for quite some time and did lose the weight but the problem was that I only ate "Jenny Food" and didn't know how to eat on my own. It was my own fault because I am lazy and don't like to cook. My Fitnesspal is great…
