I definitely look at the labels! I can give them a quick once-over and it helps me evaluate what I'm about to buy. I immediately look at calories and serving sizes, a lot of packaged foods pull the 100 calories per serving, but that serving is one bite trick. Actually it saved me from buying Kashi cereal at walmart today.…

What this guy said. However I'd watch the intake of various nutrients to make sure you don't land up with a deficiency later on. I eat whatever I want and it is great at controlling hunger and cravings.

Yeah I know what you mean... Last week I was baking a chocolate cake for a party and when it came time to whip the ganache I just kept tasting it and tasting it...... with a tablespoon! And making excuses that I'm "testing the consistency" LOL I've actually been trying to make healthier meals, but its not easy because me…

Both me and my boyfriend have been drinking diet sodas for a long time with no issue. I've been drinking almost 2 litres a day since I started losing weight and it's not hindered my weight loss one bit. I also have a good grasp of chemistry so I know exactly what I'm putting in my body anyway. The taste however.... takes…

I don't really mind either way, though my man is hairy all over including side hair (??? first guy I've seen it on).

I'm a night eater and eat one large meal a day so... most of them? Hehehehe. I eat a large dinner over the course of a few hours late at night, but I never eat breakfast and rarely eat lunches bigger than a snack.

Wow.. I'm surprised how much nutritional misinformation gets parroted along on these forums. Mercola is a quack and the majority of the stuff on his site is in no way supported by hard science. Next there'll be anti-vaccination and anti-fluoridation videos, sheesh.

Until last year when I gained my extra weight I was a size 2, but fit into occasional 1s or 0s based on the brand. I think I was something like 35/24/34. I was 115-120 pounds, but I'm only 5'3". Right now I'm around 145 and wear a size 4. My mom, however, is like the person size 0 was designed for. She is TINY. She's 5'…

I weigh almost everyday... the exception is when I'm plateauing. If i haven't seen a change in a little while I'll stop for a few days and then weigh again. Keeps me from being worried about my progress. However, I only record my weight if there's been a change (up or down).

When I have a fast food craving (not very often but it happens) I'll usually just go get a small portion of whatever I want. My general approach is that if I eat a balanced diet most of the time and exercise portion and calorie control I can eat whatever I want. I just treat it as a dessert because I hate sweets. If I'm…

It gave me 123, which is pretty right on, I'm aiming for 125-ish. Dunno about the smoking, I put "no" cause I smoke and I'm not planning on quitting. I think they ask because you gain a bit of weight just after you quit??

I'm in this category. I'm 5'3" and want to lose 20-25 pounds. I actually gained about 25 pounds when I moved to Tennessee last year, gorging or barbecue and various down home cooking isn't good for the weight :). Fried foods and really high calorie/fatty meat dishes are my downfall. I've always eaten low sugar, but that's…
