Oh, wow, just noticed I didn't even really state my question. My question is that if I eat the same amount of calories per day, will it help me lose weight?

The second one pretty much sums up my week. 1500 cal per day average. I guess I just need to make sure I don't eat too little calories. I feel like I should probably be getting more of a 1700 cal/day average.

Everyone's comments are very helpful!! I eat a lot of nuts, and I'm not sure if I should add more because although they have good fat, they have a LOT of fat. I guess I should try cottage cheese, and quinoa! Will add protein powder to my grocery list to mix with soy milk. :)

BTW, my diet was healthy, and simple. I still use their guidelines to help me lose weight, so if you want to save money.. take my world for it, here's the program!!!: 3 servings starch per day (such as 1 slice bread, 1/4 cup cooked pasta/rice, 2 cups plain popcorn, 1 small baked potato) 3 servings protein per day (8 oz…

It's expensive, but it works. I've done it before and lost about 30 lbs in a year. They really help you get back into a "normal" diet after you've lost the weight, which helps you keep it off. I went on to lose 25 more lbs on my own after I ended the program. The only reason I gained it back, and more, is because I had a…

Hi new friend! I have the opposite problem, smaller waist than hips/thighs, so I can't help you with pants.. but when it comes to dresses and skirts, SPANX are a girls best friend! They suck in my lower tummy pooch very nicely, and as an added bonus, they hide panty lines!

beware of anything frozen, as freezing takes nutrition out of food!!! also beware of canned food, because it has lots of sodium and preservatives.

cheapest buys EVER right here... bulk bags of beans and lentils, brown rice, eggs, different kinds of potatoes, onions, bananas, cucumbers, popcorn kernels, carrots. to save more money, go to farmers markets to get your produce! it's much more nutritious than that genetically modified crap from kroger, anyway. :)

I'm 5'9" and my boyfriend is 5'6". He is the love of my life, and when I'm with him, I don't even notice the height difference! You shouldn't hold back from dating someone just because society tells you that it's weird to date a shorter guy. Those are old social norms that aren't important anymore. Women can make more…

I am a vegetarian and never go hungry! I eat veggies ALL DAY. It seems like I have to eat a lot throughout the day, but that's actually better for your body. Graizin like an animal! I just made a super filling meal of aloo paneer bread topped with diced veggies, sauteed in safflower oil. i ate a banana on the side, and i'm…

Right! I believe you can meet your goals. You're already taking the first step in recognizing you need to change your habits! Also, the ideal weight for my 5'9" frame is 165 - 170 lbs, so my goal is 170. Even at 180 I was healthy, and looked good! We're above average, that's all. Best wishes on your journey!!
