Seem to have lost motavation
I started trying to lose weight (this time) January 1, 2011. As U can see I lost about 47 lbs. I got off track during Xmas & can't get motivated again. I haven't really gained a lot but afraid if things don't change I'll gain most of it back like I have every other time. Right now I seem to gain a lb today & tomorrow I…

too many calories?
Is MFP allowing too many calories? I am usually a little under my allowed but still not losing . I have even tried to eat most & not losing. I have jumped around for about 3 weeks now.. gain a few..lose them & then gain again. I had a lot better results eating 1000 or less. Years ago I lost 100 lbs in a year eating from…

Vitamins
I was told by my doctor not to take anything with vitamin B6 in it. All multiple vitamins have B6. I went to the health food store & he had me buy multiple minerals. That took care of the mineral part but now need to get some vitamins. I take 50,000 units of vitamin D twice a month. I take 400 units of E a day. What other…

Any one doing South beach?
I have been doing South Beach for a couple of months but right now it is going very slow.. too slow & that's why I'm here. I am wondering how others seem to doing here counting. I lost quite a bit just counting calories at 1st then switched to SB. SB is easier but sure slow for me. Thanks for any & all replies.

calories going lower
I noticed since I lost 2 lbs my calories allowed went down some. I'm guessing the lower my weight goes the less they let me eat. At the rate of 20 calories for 2 lbs by the time I lose the 35 lbs I want to lose I won't be having much to eat :ohwell:

about goals
My goal is 1330 calories.. is that to lose or to maintain? I am eating a lot above my sodium goal.. I'm having trouble cutting that down. Eating South Beach makes it harder to follow these goals. It seems like everything is full of sodium. I use cottage cheese some for snack..it has sodium...Turkey products are full of…

protein
I am doing South Beach & tracking calories also. My carbs did OK yesterday as I don't try to make them real low mainly limit the white carbs as much as I can. The protein was too high though... they are only allowing 50g. I have already had 30 today. I had some salmon salad & refried beans. I lost a lot of my weigh just…

New kid on the block

My losing now is very SLOW. .. a 1/2 lb or less weekly. I get discouraged with so slow of loss. In South Beach we aren't supposed to…
