  • Up 0.2 lbs. Small portions except on the sweet potato pie and the mac and cheese. Oh well.

  • Lots of people use FitBit successfully. Like any other device, you may have to calibrate it the first time you use it.

  • The very best of luck to you. My one advice would be not to give up everything at once. Make small changes or you'll find yourself right back where you started when you begin feeling deprived. Most folks who lost weight and kept it off successfully will tell you moderation, not deprivation. You've done well to introduce…

  • If someone asked me face to face to recommend a book for a specific topic, my answer would be "I don't know of one" OR "I don't know of one, but I will ask around" OR, "here is one I found helpful". Why would I answer, you are too lazy? Or that you are looking for someone to do the work for you? So YOU got it! Good for…

  • There is a +/- 20% leeway in the calories on food labels so I wouldn't stress going over by 37. As someone said, it's about the overall deficit in a week, not so much one day.

  • Lost 1 inch from my bust, waist, and hip when I measured on Sunday. My slacks are too big and several persons remarked that my clothes were getting too big. The three rolls of fat on either side of my back are down to one roll on one side and one and a half on the other.

  • ROFLMHO! Is Kalikel saying if I have one pound of muscles that is more in weight than one pound of fat? Hmmm!
    in 'Muscle weighs more than fat' ??? Comment by ZBuffBod November 2014
  • I totally agree. 1lb is 1lb is 1lb no matter how you slice it. I think the confusion comes from muscles being denser than fat and taking up less space. So someone might weigh the same but find their clothes fitting looser because they have lost some fat tissue and gained muscle tissue.

  • I think if you lose it at a slow rate, you don't have to contend too much with loose skin because as you exercise, your body gets a chance to tighten up. That has been my experience anyway. But then, I never had as much as 100 lbs to lose. Check out some of the other forum posts on folks who lost 100 lbs or more...slowly…

With that said...Jerk chicken is not fried. It is either baked in the oven or cooked on a grill. The name jerk comes from the…

  • Counting calories and exercising does work to help you lose weight as I can attest. Are you using a food scale? It is very easy to overestimate your calories. Take a look at this YouTube video about how easy it is to do. Good luck. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGcdyfDM3oQ
