I've been taking them for the last 8 weeks, I've lost 12lbs, not as much as expected but I feel awesome! I have energy, I don't snack as much, overall I just feel better, I used to stay so tired all day everyday but it helped. I also suffer from chronic back pain and arthritis in my neck, back and hands (im 27) and it has…

I currently take phentermine and so far I love my results. I have been on it for a month now, and along with taking it I get weekly b12/lipo-plex injections and biweekly b-complex injections. So far I have lost 12lbs and inches. When I started my doctor told me to cut carbs and sugar intake as that would help me more than…

My first day was 5/30, split 500 cals between breakfast and dinner, then I ended up not having anything to eat until 1:30p lunch on 5/31 so I actually did 30 hr fast. I plan on doing the 4:3 instead because before MFP and dieting I used to only eat once a day with one snack, so fasting for me is easier and I think having…

I also exercise at home and youtube is my best friend. I do fitness blender, jillian michaels, moms into fitness, really just any that will help me achieve my goals. I mix them up every day too so I don't get tired of them and I can focus on more of my body and what parts I want to work on. I also have AT&T uverse TV which…

I started diet and exercise along with MFP 2 weeks ago. I also have a flabby belly and loose skin that I've been trying to get rid of but I don't think there is a sure fire way to do it unless I choose surgery. I have focused on core cardio and ab workouts, which has since built up the muscle behind my loose skin and…

Very true. I still have a long way to go so I'm not trying to worry about dressing for any size until I meet my goal.

I lost 4lbs and 1 size. I was kind of disappointed on the scales but when I realized I lost an inch I was way more excited about that.

Thanks, I have been eating back those calories and I've actually noticed a difference in how I felt not eating them before compared to now.

Thanks, I've got 30lbs to lose so anything to help is great.

Thanks

I'm new to this and I don't understand why it adds back calories after you've exercised to burn them off in the first place. I stopped adding my exerise so it won't add any back because eating back what I've earned I don't think it will help me too lose, maybe i'm wrong. Any advice?

I only ate once a day for years then I started a new job and training was 8-5 m-f and I started eating 3x's a day and ending up losing 15lbs within a month. I find that if I eat a decent meal at least 3x's a day and maybe 2 snacks, 1 in between each meal I feel so much better and it gets my body in a routine and enough of…

I'm 27 started MFP 1 week ago, along with an RX to aide my weight loss.

I lay in the tanning bed, it helps mask the stretch marks. Might not be the healthiest or safest way but it works for me, and my fat looks better dark, lol.
