Great Job...your on the home stretch

both...

I'm 5'1" but your senario is worse. Welcome to mfp. I know you will reach your goal with all of the support there is here :)

Get into the 150s

where are you having this done?

What ever works you can always update your cals at the end of the day

My BMI is obese and will be until I loose 5 more lbs. That doesnt make me feel better about myself at all. So I'm not sure what you are saying. If you've done all you can to gain weight I would say relax. I can't stand the BMI. I'm not where I want to be weight wise but I dont consider myself obese...

Losing is better than gaining. I'm trying to realize this is a lifestyle change and not about any event. God forbid the event comes and either way if you make it you feel relieved and slack off or you get disappointed. Really you have already come so far. And you have the encouragement and tools to keep going. Thats what…

Cool...Great job...we have the same stats

You can look at my journal but I never eat all of my cals. I usually end up having too many protiens. I dont stop eating calories because of it though cause I workout so much I need all that protien. Couldnt you have a protien snack?

One bad meal does not blow a day, one bad day does not blow a week and one bad week does not mean give up.

How much do you spend monthly (roughly)? 600 How many are in your household? 4 but 2 are kids What region / area are you from? northern california Do you think that's high / low / average ? I think its high Does anything affect that total? - We buy mostly organic

I've lost 54 lbs since having my daughter. She's 14 m now. So its possible. I lost most of it before joining mfp but this site is great. You will get there

I think it really comes down to comittment. We could all say pack your meals and plan but if you are not ready nothing will change. That is how weight loss works. I've lost weight eating peanut butter and jelly that I packed. Yes its boring but with two kids, sports and life going on thats what it has taken sometimes when…

i love classes, spin, strength, zumba, pilates, sometimes aqua

Weekends kill me. But first I realize this is a lifelong journey not just a GOAL weight. Next, I make the best choices I can. For me we have family functions on the weekend. I try to just maintain and not gain anything. This weekend I piled up on salads and veggies and ate a little bit of the rest. They actually had 9…

protien and fiber all throughout the day

1. How old are you? 31 2. What is your body shape? Apple 3. Has diet or exercise made more of a difference in your weight loss? What else has worked? Mostly diet. I've always loved exercise weights and cardio up to 2 hours a day. But I could never loose weight until i changed my diet. I started with herbalife, then weight…

Well I have a question. I thought the whole point of this diet is to increase you monounsaturated fats to get a smaller belly. Did you notice belly fat loss. I'm not too into the water but I do eat almonds, dark chocolate, and avocado. Does that still help my belly fat? Or do I have to be on the complete detox.

CW: 164lbs. GW: 150lbs....then we will see Height: 5'1" Age: 31 Sex: Female

Well I was eating my workout cals since sept and loosing. Then I stopped loosing so I stopped eating them and lost almost 3 lbs in a week. Now its slowed down again but I think we have to keep tricking our bodies. I'm eating some of those cals now again

Oh!!! How easy I see. Now I added my rice uncooked calories. I guess that doesnt matter because in the end it will calculate the servings. I figure 1 cup of uncooked rice cooks up to 3 cups of cooked rice so I said 6 servings. (meaning half cup.) I think thats right but please correct me if I'm wrong

I do tons of strength training and I have loose skin. It really is genetics. I also have 2 kids. But my sister n law had 3 back to back and she doesnt have all the loose skin.

Thank you SO MUCH!!! This is exactly what was ripping my mind appart. Okay on to calorie counting YAY

I've lost 38 lbs and I'm actually thinking about changing to calorie counting. It doesnt make sense to convert everything to points when the calories are available more directly. I did the old program but I can see how the new program with "free" fruits could be appealing. I dont know. I know I would have to count my…

I would say increase protien anyway you can. like 12 almonds or peanut butter, an egg, lean meat, beans. Snack on lean protien and high fiber foods like oatmeal. These things keep you full.

I did bad yesterday, got on track today, but I know there will be too much food to be perfect tomorrow. So I just remember: One bad meal does not blow a day, one bad day does not blow a week and one bad week does not mean give up. I'm in this for the long run. Enjoying the journey. I'm not gonna let one thing hold me back.…

Are you eating enough?

Great Question! I need help too! To many family functions where I dont know what they put in their food!!!

Thats what I was thinking! But what about the fiber?
