I haven't heard the cancer + obesity link ever. How closely are these two things correlated? If not that closely, I think it's a red herring. What about that recent study that ppl who are overweight...

Thanks. I don't mean to downplay the loss - it's true it's huge, I worked hard on it and I'm very happy about it. I guess I just question some of the things we think about being fat. I personally...

I dunno, I weighed 100 lbs more than I do now and honestly I don't feel that different. When I eat healthy I feel much better than when I don't, regardless of size. I never have knee problems now and...

Hmm. I do not agree with the fat acceptance movement (obviously or I wouldn't be here) but I think some of the slamming here is unfair.

Fact is that what, 98% of diets fail? Within 5 years ppl...

As I mentioned I'm veggie and know nothing about bacon really, and I sure don't have any idea what 2 pounds of it would be.

I was just a bit wary about some of the posts I saw that assumed that...

I disagree. I think kids DO need higher fat, higher calorie food. Not McDonalds but not primarily vegetables either. It's that whole 'yuppy malnutrition' ideology and I think it's false. And I don't...

Okay, well I don't know much about bacon at all. (I'm actually a vegetarian LOL). But I would just caution against deciding there is one way to eat healthfully for all members of the family, or that...

Sure, avocado is great. But there is debate about which fats are good vs bad. IMO processed foods are not good, but a natural food like bacon is a nice, high density, high fat food, and excellent for...

Kids actually need higher fat, higher density food. I don't think bacon is a bad food for a child. I notice I have to cook very different foods for my growing children than for myself. The hard thing...

I wouldn't go lower than 1500 myself. It has to be liveable. I had a time where I didn't lose anything for two-ish months, and then I started losing again. Slowly at first but now I'm losing fairly...

Oh wow that is wild about xylitol! Is it an artificial sweetener? I was under the impression it was natural but I know very little about it.

As to the low blood sugar theory, I don't think this is...

Aww I hear you.

All I can say is I plateaued in the 190s for about two months, then lost slowly after that. Now the weight is coming off quickly again. I have no idea why.

When I plateaued I...

Can artificial sweeteners make you angry?

I had some yogourt last night with sucralose in it, and became really quick to temper afterward (well after the second serving). I remembered the last time I had sucralose, same thing happened. In...

I really don't get this idea that WW offers a ton of points. I get 29, and that is barely doable. When I had 35 before it was more doable, and a few times perhaps I was under. But I read on here...

I have a hard time with ice cream. So I have the fat free kind, or low fat frozen yogourt. I still eat too much of it sometimes. I'm on WW and counting points for it sucks!
