...point is that you can over eat anything and there will be consequences of some sort. It makes humans feel better to point the finger, that powdered sugar coated finger, at the culprit. It's funny that at the same time that bacon, cheese coated finger was shoving a tasty morsel down my throat, it was pointing directly at…

Yep 1000x to the bolded. Sometimes I can handle his little "jokes," but sometimes it sends me reeling. I often think how hard it must be to be married to me. But he keeps hanging in there. It's tough for both of us. We just muddle through. It's worth it to both of us. He's my best friend.

Some people are just mean. Theres no excuse for treating anyone like that. But, the author wants the world to change around her instead of changing herself...in order of importance: her attitude and then her weight...two things over which she does have control.

Weigh.your.food.and.log.it. For at least a month or two. Take your log to your dr. if what you see doesn't jive. There are no other answers unless you have recorded evidence to the contrary. I am a 49 woman with autoimmune issues. Weighing and logging is the ONLY thing that has ever worked for me. Good luck.

It grows wonderfully outdoors here in NM...except that one year we had winter temps of 10 below...not a common thing. Bushes all over town died. Anyway, it is good on most meats and veggies. I enjoy it especially on gamey meats like venison, etc. It's great with olive oil on focaccia. It's a very common spice you can get…

Last Sunday I ate a hard boiled Easter egg. Maybe it is commonly a "three hour tour" but that egg got lost and first sighting, or rather smelling, was last night. (Sorry) :p

Poor science. So misunderstood. :(

That settles it. We're having pancakes for dinner...

Heh. My state is 37th on that list. We're also the second poorest in the nation. Thank goodness for Mississippi. You're always there to make us feel better about ourselves. I suppose I've been on the outside looking in all my life and I've never paid much mind to what other people are thinking or doing. At least if I have,…

I find it bothersome that these social media click bait articles often don't link the actual scientific study. Last week or the week before when the big story was "high glycemic foods cause cancer," I searched Google Scholar and couldn't find the actual study...not even behind a paywall. I just moved on. For me, not…

Man, so much negligence. I am so sorry you are suffering. I wish you the best.

You might be a candidate for a fecal transplant.

I am thinking she must frequent MFP...judging from some of her language and her use and explanation of our favorite word, "woo." I especially loved her use of "Woo-mongering," and I expect it will be undoubtedly be put to good use here. I like it.

...only if you are a mouse.

Cardio works to keep my mind from focusing on the negative. I've fallen off my routine for a couple of weeks and I can feel the difference. I'm berating myself across the board. "I need to do better." Instead of "I am dong great!" Months away from a year on MFP and I am points away from being in the "healthy weight..."…

Haha! "BMI improved" over 14 days. Right. 12 men; 14 days. Absolutely groundbreaking research.

Eat back 50% since calorie burns are an estimate. Tweak as necessary.

When you search your foods, add "grams" at the end. For example, search "strawberries grams"

Nicely said! As someone who has a tendency to blow some situations out of proportion, I have somehow managed to keep a level head concerning this shedding of junk in my garage. I weigh every day and note my ups and down. But, I get to decide my mood, and I feel much healthier when I decide on a good one.

I ate "clean," as some folks like to say, for many years thinking I could just exercise away the excess weight. I was wrong. So, I wasn't eating a lot of "bad" foods, I was just plain eating too much. The pounds virtually fell off when I started weighing my portions to monitor my intake. I am a 5'6", 48 YO woman, and after…

Me to to all that but half way to 49. I find that the hard things change over time, while some things become a no brainer.

Watch the video below your post or the other a page back. The difference is startling. I used to think I was terrible at baking, and now I am starting to resent that American recipes use cups and spoon measures. All these years my measuring has been screwing up my recipes. Take, for instance, the other day when I was…

If you are convinced that everything you did worked, then I am not sure there is anything anyone can say to help. There are no tricks or magic formulas. The only thing you can do is try different things, like a scale, but you've said that's not something you want to do.You say that is a pat answer around here, and maybe it…
