  • You and I are exactly alike. My goal is 100lbs to lose and I have lost a little over 20lbs so far. I am doing it with the help of my Dr. and this website. Feel free to add me.
  • Thanks. I really hope I can get this up and running. I think it would help alot of people...

I think it would be great if we could plan outings (hiking at the waterfalls) get togethers where we can swap stories, recipes, clothes maybe...
  • Thanks everyone for the input. Each of your input did help. I have been kind of shying away from beans and nuts because of the high calories, but I am going to try to incorporate some into my food choices and see if I can get that boost in protein grams.

  • Why are you trying to not eat after 7? What time do you normally go to bed? Reason I ask is because my Dr. has told me to eat a snack an hour before bed...so if I go to bed at 11 I am eating my snack at 10. This helps my metabolism stay running smoothly and not push my body into starvation mode (which means your body will…
  • What helps me is I try to eat a high protein snack in the car on my way home from work. Beef Jerkey is one of my favorite. That way I am not focused on food the second I walk in the door. I give my attention to my baby and my husband and then I start to make dinner. Having that snack on the way home does two things for…
  • How about a hard boiled egg and some string cheese?
  • Add me as your friend and you can look at my diary. My daily calorie goal is 1320. You can't starve yourself, that will not help you. I have lost over 16 lbs in 5 weeks even though my ticker says 8 because I haven't updated it yet. You need to eat every two hours to keep your metabolism running and to convert your food…
