^^ sucked in her gut - before...after. LOL What a joke.

I wish I had your issue. The "hungry all the time" posts outnumber the "not hungry" posts in the forums 10:1. :) So what's your secret?

I stopped reading the link after sentence #3: "Losing weight any faster than 2lb a week has been linked to problems such as gallstones (because it upsets the balance of cholesterol in the body)" Hogwash. Gallstones occur because very low calorie diets cause the gallbladder to excrete less bile. The bile becomes too…

Bienvenue to MFP. Wishing you much success!

Not many obese or diabetic gorillas in the world, so I would say you can eat fruit.

But what about...starvation mode?

Welcome here and wishing you great success. Log what you eat everyday and it can be done!

I have a hot tub time machine and can confirm cavemen had no cancer, Case closed.

"Hall of residence" sounds so much classier than "dorm". I like that! :# At my college we just called it "The Pit".

waahhh!! That's what my wife called me on our wedding night. :'(

I made toothpaste cheesecake. I gained 2 pounds. :'(

...and still they keep answering. hahha

dontcha just hate it when that happens?? Yesterday I saw people answering a question, post after post, to an ancient thread, and the OP hadn't even logged on in 2 years!!

OP, thanks for the link. I read it, I wasn't doubting cortisol's terrible effects, I was doubting that it is "stored in the stomach". Which of course t is not. Long term elevated cortisol levels can cause weight gain, not from something like cardio. Two things can cause long term elevated cortisol levels. Taking it as an…

Carbohydrates are evil Evil

The stomach stores cortisol??? :o On what planet?

Then that makes me a diet atheist. Do what you want,,,just keep it to yourself, and stop asking people's opinions about it. LOL (am I right?) :#

Diets are like religions. People here will fight to the death defending theirs and debunking yours. Life is so short. Just be happy. btw I'm on the Tapeworm Diet. It's the only one that works. Period.

I just cut the cheese. No weight loss, but p.u.

You are Queen achiever in my book. I salute you!

@s_pekz - There is a theory that the underlying cause of AD stems from the brain losing the ability to metabolize glucose properly. Thus the term "Diabetes Type III" I don't know if it is real science, but there may be some truth behind it. Check out this article: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2367001/

ONE day makes little difference if you go off - and that applies to losing or maintenance. I guarantee you if you went over 2000 every day for a whole week, your scale would show it though.

There was a young woman from Venus Whose body was shaped like a .. when First Contact was made The crew were dismayed When she told them her species and genus

Anyone remember "Supersize Me"? Morgan Spurlock made that "pseudo-documentary" - that supposedly proved fast food makes people fat. He was soon debunked though. Another producer lost weight eating at that same McDonalds! (12 pounds in a month) People continue to believe that eating "junk" automatically makes you obese.

@Alisha_countrymama - Dr. Atkins!! You're alive again!!

You forget there are a lot of thin bald men walking the earth. I'm not talking about hair loss from malnutrition or other factors. I am talking about male pattern baldness. MPB is totally genetic. If you have hair follicles sensitive to androgens, then you will lose your hair soon after puberty. The lifespan of your hair…

You're welcome. I changed my comment. LOL

Wishing you great success with your goals! :)

I usually divide out my chicken breast meat in 10-12 ounce portions. And I weigh it uncooked also. In my opinion, you are just fine.
