  • I'd love to hear more about that Jonnythan. How does it compensate? Why does it compensate?
  • This is a fascinating article. The difference between 129 calories and 170 calories is huge over time. That difference in calories every day for a year is a difference in 4 pounds. Over 5 years, that's 20 pounds. This really motivates me to eat more unprocessed foods.
  • You've gotten great suggestions. I only wanted to add oatmeal and the hillbilly housewife has great ideas: http://www.hillbillyhousewife.com/40dollarmenu.htm ... I will warn you though that the menu is old, so I've found her emergency menu costs a little more now.
  • I'm a pescetarian. Here are some of the ways I've gotten protein recently without meat replacement foods ordered by the number of grams of protein per 100 calories. 18 - Plain Greek Yogurt (I add stevia and cinnamon to make it taste good) 15 - spinach 9 - unsweetened soy milk (organic, non-gmo) 8 - broccoli 8 - lentils 7 -…
  • Thank you for everyone's advice! I bought the book, Edward (nice price :)), and I will definitely look into shoes. Thank you for sharing your experiences.

  • Ooooh! I love lurking diaries too. :) I'm fascinated by what people eat and how it affects them. You and I have similar CW and GW, but a little different heights. I'm 5'0 lol. Lurk away!
  • Thank you everyone for taking the time to share your photos/stories. You ladies are amazing! :) <3
  • I'm 4'11.5. HW - 211 CW - 174 I'm really just focusing on losing 1/2 a pound every week. Sometimes I lose more. Sometimes I don't lose any. But I feel the most in control and hardly ever feel the need to binge when I'm kind to myself and just focus on 1/2 pound a week. So, that's all I focus on right now. It took 8 years…
