Hi, I did my numbers, started from zero, opened a new account here at mfp, put my stats, 5'5 284.4lbs female sedentary, it's saying I should lose 2 pounds per week with 1520 calories per day, go figure lol! Also was reading for the last half an hour about water, used some online calculators, none gave me the exact amount…

Wow omg

This is my day #48 and nowhere close to your lost. For you to lost 40 pounds in 72 days, that comes like 4lbs per week, I dont know what you call drastic, I thought I was already drastic enough, mfp says 1400 and hang around in 1250-1300 or so and I'm 50+ pounds heavy than when you started. But congrats on your lost…

LC , low carb?

Wow thats like a lot of pounds in 15 weeks. Can u share more plz? Im almost 300lbs and I struggle, my diary it's open. Congratulations btw, that's amazing!

Good morning, Those asking for my water intake, this one daily with ice almost everyday comes home empty. On another note, I jump in the scale today went from 283.8 to 284.4 lbs. In the same note, I'm doing this together with my brother, he knows nothing about mfp, calorie counting, cero weigh food, cero exercise and every…

Im happy to inform that just today I used a cooler and ice packs, my salad was cold even with all this heat \win/. I'll add the yogurt and cottage cheese in my weekly menu.

Hahahaahaa ok lmao!

:# I don't know. Every time I see the restaurants I think the same thing, ummm how would it taste, probably so many flavors and so diferent from everything I usually eat. I must and I will!

Believe me when I say I loveee cottage chesse, its not that Im the biggest fan of protein bars but I dont have access to fridge, microwave or anything so they become very helpful. Lately Im eating almonds and unsalted peanuts. Im scare to ask lol but according to science and mfp if everything is about CICO I should very…

Wow awesome, probably have heard a million time but so much congratulation!! I spend over 12h daily driving, what Im going to do it's get another scale and leave it in the car so I can weigh the snacks. The other stuff I already do it at night when I meal prep for the day before.

I think I'm good in the water department. Exercise coming soon, just bought my pair of snikers on friday. Aknowledge the eating below calories, tx u.

Of course I understand with only 4lbs and 250 cals. I have 130lb to go and 1000 cal deficit/daily. Congrats and good luck!

Omg I have never ever tried indian food. So curious about it! That's in my bucket list lol, and I'm in NYC so it shouldn't be hard.

Do all successful mfp people really weigh their bread, yogurt, protein bar, etc? I thought for what I read here people get more strict when they have the last 10-20 pound to lose or something, but I have 130lbs still to go. For that extra 20% when labels are off I precisely Dont eat the full 1400 cals most days.

Ok. Got it, I'm not that concern about the logging part honestly just the rate of weightloss, I guess I thought I was doing ok but apparently not really.

Ok, I'll weight the snacks too, and be back in 4 weeks to report any updates. Txs.

I'm hispanic, I ate rice every single day of my life. I'm just trying the whole everything with moderation, I'm trying to eat more vegetables so I eat half the week or so rice and the other half vegetables with protein. I work 12h day driving, dont have access to fridge, microwave or anything that's why the snacks I eat.…

Yes I 100% ate exactly what it's log, no medical condition, last week went twice to the doctor and did test and he call me saying everything was great. No exercise, I know commonly when you start any program that may happen, and since I've notice things are not working out too well and haven't figure out yet the calorie…

Omg soooo hot :D <3 #congrats

You're smart!

Cinnamon. Black pepper

Wow such a difference! Congrats :)

Hey hi , don't know if you are referring to me but just in case , actually I started my weight loss right around this time last year, 2 weeks before thanksgiving , so yes I know exactly how you're feeling but I did not get morbidly obese because of the holidays quite the opposite the problem was the other 350ish days ,…

I'm so with u both ! I don't stress about it much

I don't belong to this thread cause seriously all I drink daily is 2 oz black coffee + 6 oz almond milk +2 splenda + dash of cinnamon and 2:00 in the micro. Perfect companion to my toast and scramble eggs <3

But for what it worth cause I don't want to look like the Grinch , last year I enjoyed everything I guess in " moderation" but really did not count calories at all and next day I gave away the leftovers, cause that's exactly what I felt like doing and almost 1 year later , no regrets :p It's about asking what u want , go…

Great contribution, lots will sure find it helpful but I seriously think that over thinking about it at least for me does no good, like when I first started to lose weight I didn't over think oh I'm fat because I have a food obsession, or bad genes or American food is plain evil , I just cut the calories and lost the…

Oh and I'm not huge consumer but diet coke does it for me too

Don't know if somebody mention it already but 2 big things for me are egg white and my almond milk , huge calorie saver items
