Morning folks!
I measured my water one day because I though that was one of my shortcomings. I filled a two litre bottle and away I went. I easily drink more than that so I was happy.
Hi everyone,..
Michelle hope those headaches subside... my sone gets them.. stress of school sometimes or lack of sleep... fita day is super easy to use i plug in all my lean gourmets in there for custom food.. i still journal by hand but then type it all in then i can see at a glance where i am lacking or doing good..
Valerie..good for you!!! keep it up..or down..hahaha
Lynn~ I do pretty much the same thing excepting.. my family has not come to like whole wheat pasta yet so I make whole whaeat pasta in seperate pot.. then I add in 1/2 cup of this or that.. I know then exactly what i use.. it is per serving so easy to figure...
Apollone.. great accountability.. I had to do the ame thing.. otherwise we give the ok for next time... did you know 250 cal and 24 gr of fat in one chocolate frosted entemanns donut!!!! holy schmoly!! I didn't eat it DH did.. I said ..do you know how much food i could eat for that??? a small country..LOL.. not really but.. If i really wanted something like that i would eat 1/4 just for the tasste.. sometimes i see something and mindlessly shove it in my mouth ..upon chewing realize my error and calculate what that is going to do to my totals and did i really want it??..if not then i spit it in the trash.. gross but i still didn't eat it.. grosser on me..

Hi all! I happended onto this board this morning...I hope you don't mind if I join in?
I have been doing the South Beach Diet for 2 months now, but I've only had a minimal loss. I feel like it's because you are allowed to eat high calorie foods like mayo, cheese, nuts, etc. I am thinking I might try to start counting calories again because I didn't that 6 years ago and lost 40 lbs.
Anyhoo, nice to meet you all and I might be seeing you soon.
Just a quick check in to see if my new avatar of Buster Brown is working. I had a loss of 1 pound this morning so I could finally adjust my weight tracker.
Hi guys - mind if I join this board? I was here for a long time on the Atkins board, but have been gone for a while, and gained even more weight.
Anyway, I am counting calories now, and would love online support. I am married, living in Chicago selling real estate. Just turned 37, and need to get my act together before I am 40 - or at least that is my goal.
I need to stay under 1500 cals per day. Had my metabolism tested, and that is my "golden number" according to my nutritionist. I have had a really hard time of it, because I take medication that causes weight gain. It is focused in my tummy, so I look 3 months pregnant. Anyway - now you know all there is - and I really look forward to your support - and to supporting you all!
I had a good day also! It started off bad, but I got it under control. 1515 calories. I didn't walk on my treadmill today, but I did put my patch on to quit smoking. I work with smokers, so it is hard, but a habit I would like to change. I have been reading up on that it takes 21 days to change a habit. My 3 habits to work on are:
walking on treadmill every day
not smoking
eating under 1500 calories
Hi this is my second day and I had a deficit of 966 calories. Lost 1 lb. (OK, I know its water but I'll take it). Did half of the L. Sansone walking DVD, 1/2 mile and will try for more today....building up to the 1 mile right now. Oh, we have a Doberman and I walk him about a 1/2 mile most days so that is just a little extra I'm not counting.
Thanks for the info on FitDay, it is time consuming to sit and fill it out but worth the effort to see the results.
I also have Weight Commander which is excellent to keep track of the weight and provides lots of info each day.
!!!!!
