ug!! it sure can add up and come back quickly !! welcome back

ug... yeah people suck... dont listen to them. Easier said than done i know... i have some "people" in my life who i dont see often and prefer not to because they have called me a "fat b****" behind my back a few times in the past. I know i have lost over 40 lbs since seeing them, but those kind of people have something…

LOL... i hear you, weight loss is not easy!!! it sure seems like gaining is so much faster than losing!!

hmmm i am considering the dial type ones now....

I am afraid to try to put a weight on mine in fear of it being off !!!! Mine seems to always have an error the first time i step on it, then i re - weigh 2-3 times till i get a few matches.... stupid scales!!!

You really need to follow your Dr/Nutritionists guidelines (usually pretty low carb). Usually they want you pretty low carb and getting your protein in and eliminating the carbs for quite a while. Did they give you gidelines? That is what you should follow, not the MFP settings.

oh yeah, i did forget the tomatos and seasonings are allowed... so yes it is healthy food and it sounds like your dad is eating the exact diet too. DR's charge lots of money to put them on this diet... it is money in there pocket. Sorry but HCG is only FDA approved as a fertility drug and studys HAVE NOT proven it works…

UM, GIRL... that is the HCG diet to a T!!! And yes it is 500 calories of meat, veggies, and fruit of that exact description. It is a starvation diet no matter what they say and that is probably why she went to the hospital.... effects of starvation.

Although this looks like an unlimited STRAWBERRY diet, I doubt a Dr would put anyone on it, especially since October. HCG is perscribed by DR's since they make lots of money doing it. And it does give 50 grams of protein from the meat at least a minimum protein is met. I doubt she is ONLY eating strawberries all day. But…

HCG?? the diet is no breakfast (tea, water, coffee anytime) 2 servings of fruit- either 1 apple, 6 strawberries, or 1/2 grapefruit 2 proteins- 3.5 oz of lean (all fat cut off) chicken, fish, or extra lean beef 2 servings of veggies- celery, asparagus, lettuce, cucumber or spinach 2 PIECES of melba toast Meat and veggies…

Bump !! thanks !!

i agree with smota, maybe your body just needs a change. its worth trying if what you are doing isnt working.

I just bought it. I just finished the 1st week of p90x and was slightly disappointed at the lack of lower body work. Its a great workout program, but after seeing that chaLEAN has the sets that do both lower body and upper body at the same time i think i'm gonna switch. My problem area is my lower body (legs) and p90 seems…

Well when I watched PLYO it looks intense, but Tony said you can do cardio x instead of plyo right on the video so thats what i plan on doing.

I wouldnt mind eating more!!! just scares me!!! LOL

So what do you mean by gain?? gain weight from not eating enough calories (starvation mode)?

@iamladybird - it is all natural and they have organic too ... its just peanuts, flax, and cane juice you can see it on the website. It is all natural. I just ran out of my other all natural one and wanted to try this while waiting for my PB2 to see how that tastes. I was drawn tot the calorie savings, less fat, less…

Wow, you defiantly should not be wanting or losing weight and your calories are less than 500 per day. Your Dr. or Nutritionist should be the one advising you on how to eat more food.

I prefer to excersize in the morning on a empty stomach before i shower. It is more consistant as others have said and easier for me not to have to figure out something to eat, then wait so i dont get a tummy ache, etc. i just do it, shower and then have my coffee, get ready for the day and so on.

like a few said above... i do find having to add the tid bits in to my diary is also helpful because if i eat a handul of this or that, then have to look at how many calories i ate i useally feel like it was a wast of calories!! i actually find main meals that are larger and more filling are better for me. If i am left…

i have this problem, especially at work (desk job) I want to eat all the time even when i am not hungry. I am going to not have anything convenient to eat and kinda schedule eating times to break the habit.

thanks

this sounds SOOOOOOO GOOOOOD !!:heart:

Actually organic even looks completely different than the other it has cultures in it kind of milky string things in it. I cant stand taking it it hurts my tummy too much but here is some info on why its different. http://www.globalhealingcenter.com/natural-health/the-benefits-of-apple-cider-vinegar/

THANK YOU!

You really cant expect more than 1-2 lbs per week (500-1000 calorie deficit) so you have lost quite a bit in the first 5 days. Weighloss isnt a quick process. Frustrating but it seems to take longer to lose than it did to gain it. :grumble: Remember it takes 3500 burned calories to lose 1 lb!! also you can change your…

After weighing in daily since I started dieting in January, it became toooooo obsessive and i would become very depressed and it really put me in a bad mood when i fluctuated up by even 1lb or less. so for my mental sanity, i hid my scale under the sink so i would not be tempted to weigh. I am almost afraid to weigh now…

i'm jealous!! I am also stuck in the same spot.

i buy generic oatmeal, eggs, milk, frozen broccoli, apples, bananas, green beans, cheese, generic lunch meat, cheese, 45 calorie sara lee multi grain bread, peanut butter, thomas 100 calorie english muffins, carrots, grapes, chicken - large pack and cut it myself and bag and freeze it in portion sizes, lettus, dressing,…

Iced Latte- 8 oz unsweetened vanilla almond breeze (40 calories) i think its 4 shots of espresso from starbucks espresso beans (its 1 full pot from my coffee mate espresso machine and it has lines 1-4 and I do 4) occasionally i put 1/2 packet of stivia, but i dont seem to need it anymore
