55 grams unpopped popcorn popped in air popper 7 grams melted butter (trust me this is all you need) 1/2 tsp salt = 230 calories, tastes great too! I throw em 2 big ziplocks and bring em in my GF's purse I think it comes down to how you eat the corn too, savor the taste of the butter and this amount will last you thru the…

Thanks for adding a bit of rational thinking to this thread, I was wondering why people are praising this guy also. Sure, you need some fats... personally I make sure to eat a half an avocado every day, and add flax to my green smoothies ( 1/2 tbspn) but to say low- fat foods is bad is ignorant. You guys honestly believe…

about 14 lb in 2 months, from 220 to 206! I think the maximum you should be losing is around 2 lb a week, I know if you have 100 lb to lose then it will be more than that at first, but don't have your expectations too high, it's a de-motivator Once you get down to the like the last 30-40 lb it gets a lot harder to lose...…

tashajayne2011- Thanks for the kind words, yeah it's weird like I'm not going to throw a party for myself. hiding from birthdays easier than being let down when the party turns out badly. I hope you have a good one in December, that must be rough because people are all so busy with x-mas. Elleinnz- Yeah this year has been…

try this for brekkie: Pinto beans ( make yourself from dried in a crock pot using chicken stock) overeasy egg (or 2) on toast!! sooo good especially with tobasco on top and packed with protein and good carbs. Use sprouted toast. I'm in weight loss mode and with coffee (cream + sugar) it's 300 cals and I'm full for hours.

the 2 people advocating this diet are probably people with websites selling the crap.... look the 2nd guy gave his email, I'm sure he will end up sending a letter back with a sales pitch. PEOPLE NEED TO WAKE UP! the internet is filled with scams and 80% are geared towards people trying to lose weight. I saw the Dr OZ…

thanks for the replies guys! mona vie eh? I'm always wary about those 'protein shake' things... they always seem like a scam. Anyway excellent tips on the breakfast! I usually use sprouted wheat bread ( 80 cals) and the bacon I use is sliced very thin at only 40 cals a slice... only 10 more than the turkey bacon! I get it…

thanks for the feedback that breakfast is sooo good! It's hard to resist it :/ yeah I suppose I should be happy with my current weight loss!
