I added you. Anyone can feel free to add me :)

Welcome!!

New Orleans :)

You look stunning. Congrats on your hard work.

I agree mostly with this. Usually I log in the morning. Even though I have a tendency to eat the same breakfast/lunch/snacks during the week, I like to log daily after I pack my food for the workday and I know exactly what I have available. Sometimes I decide to have an unplanned item and when that happens I log it…

This has been a HUGE problem for me. Last month we started playing Pokemon go on our phones. It may seem silly, but it makes walking fun and we definitely aren't bored anymore.

Mine is nattyschmatty, I post a mix of family, friends, food and lots of cats. Feel free to follow :smile:

An inch off my belly this morning. That makes for a very happy Natty.

Another BPC question- Do you eat breakfast with it or have it instead? I've read different things... I feel like this is something I can really get into. I seriously love coffee.

I know right?! That sounds amazing.

I haven't tried BPC yet. I probably should. How do you make yours?

In my few 4 four weeks of starting this, I have noticed that I don't have nearly as many problems with IBS. I am quite happy about that.

I'm new to this but I have been steadily losing and haven't given up my coffee. I have a large one in the morning and then again after lunch. I quit the powdered creamer though.

Thanks! That's what I thought, But I wanted to make sure I was on the right track.

YES!!!!!!!! I always forget about these bad boys. I love Louisiana hot sauce pork rinds. EMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.

If it makes you feel any better I was sick with a stomach flu and managed to gain weight back. The only thing I could keep down was bread. :/

AWWWWWW. This whole thread is making me want to take in another rescue. I just took in 2 more guinea pigs though, bringing the total up to 5. So for now, with 2 cats, 5 pigs, and 12 year old daughter, we have a full house.

I can't get over how fat my white one is. She was this TINY little baby when we found her. We had to bottle feed her. Now look at her!! Scriabin is named after the Russian composer Alexander Nikolayevich Scriabin, who happens to be my husband's muse. I won't lie my husband sort of looks like this guy. This is Scriabin:

Our baby Scriabin And the second baby WhiteTip

Thanks everyone for the welcome and the advice. I am happy to report that I am feeling pretty darn good today.

YES! I read through this yesterday. It's EXTREMELY helpful. I was completely in the dark about all of this. Just by chance, I bought a large jar of pickles yesterday and have them with at me work today :smiley: I did not realize I was good to go on eating more salt. I am heading to out this afternoon to make sure I am…

Same here guys. Feel free to add me :)

That's fantastic!!

Yes, Exactly.

We meal prep on Sundays. Boiled eggs are a staple for breakfast and snacks. I boil and peel them and keep them in the fridge. I cut fruit and weigh it out for the week. I try and have a general Idea of what dinners I am going to prepare for the week. Crock pot is really helpful- roasts, chicken, pork- you can throw pretty…

I do. My Diary is open. Feel free to add me and take a look.

A boiled egg and cantaloupe. Yummy.

I got a digital scale from WalMart for $10 and it works great.

Your story is very similar to mine. I have realized that I am going to probably have to log calories on a somewhat regular basis for the rest of my life. I was maintaining very well for a while when I logged accurately at least 5 days a week. Once I quit logging, I gained back all the weight. I need to see those numbers in…

Hello, I am currently in a yo-yo pattern. I have been back and forth on MFP for 2 years now. I have yet to ever reach to my goal weight. I managed to keep off most of it for a year. At one point I was 3lbs away from my goal, life got sticky, I got sad. I stopped caring, stopped logging, and gained back all my weight plus…
