  1. I have both and 100 pounds later it is sooo much better.
  2. Water it is. Thanks and cheers
  3. LI is right. I like that My Fitness Pal shows me the percent change in my body weight. Also a lot of times, weight loss is slower if you aren't really big to start with. I stared at 410.
  4. Oh yeah. I didn't set up my ticker but I was sleeved 8/8/14. Starting weight is 410. Current weight is 310.
  5. That is what an Inspiralizer is. One of the girls at work told me about it. I use it to make zucchini spaghetti and other veggies. I found the Bella Vita spaghetti sauce (low carb) too, so I cn have spaghetti again. Love it.
  6. Anybody using the Inspiralizer and making veggie "noodles"? Pretty tasty. Also, I've ordered some goodies from Netrition that are tasty. They have "Chios" that are made of cheese. 150 cals and 2 g carbs for the bag.
  7. I vote fit the Premier as will. Yummy but 30 g protein. 160 cals. I didn't like the vanilla, but the chocolate IS like chocolate milk. Sometimes mine are thick too, but I still like them and drink them
  8. I used FMLA for my time off too. I was off 3.5 weeks but my doctor said I could go back in 2. I'm a paralegal, so I'm stationary but still stressful. It took me about 6 weeks to really feel myself again.
  9. Believe me, Bon, I've had stalls too. I seemed to yo yo around in December and January but really didn't lose anything. My NUT told me to switch up and eat up to 30 carbs a day for 2days and on the third day, eat up to 100. At first I had a slight gain, but then it seemed to kick in. Also, we joined a gym and started doing water aerobics about 3 weeks ago, which has really helped. I started at 410 and now I'm 310, so I've got a long way to go and I know the next 100 will be even harder. We can do this. One meal at a time.
  10. And I don't think your calories are too high.
  11. That's about what I hit each day too. I don't think it's too much.
  12. I was sleeved in August. Today I hit -100 pounds. Still a long way to go, but it's going.
  13. Was sleeved 8/8/13. Hit -100 lbs today . Long way to go still but it's going.
  14. Mine is Roo after the Winnie the Poo character because he lived in Kanga's pouch. You guys are cracking me up
  15. Yeah! You go girl!
  16. You don't say what your starting weight was. My highest weight was 410. My NUT has told me many times I need at least 1200 cal but closer to 1400 to lose the weight. I've struggled w that for a while but finally gave in. Also started exercising. I've lost 4 lbs in 6 days. She said less CSS for my weight is too little and that my body goes into a starvation mode when I go under that for very long. I was stuck this sat tie for almost 2 mos because I didn't do what she said. Also, she told me to fluctuate the number of carbs per day for a while to shack it up. Finally the lbs are moving again.
  17. My NUT didn't want to give me a number but finally realized I had to have a number . She told me at least 1200 but closer to 1400 for my body size. I struggle with getting that many cals because I feel guilty. She tells me I would have lost a lot more if I would eat enough cals. I am now trying to hit at least 1200. I also drink at least 64 iz of water, but usually hit 80+. I shoot for at least 85 g protein as well.
  18. You're right. Don't see too many broccoli commercials
  19. And when you are driving, there are fast food restaurants everywhere!
  20. Adam, I'm not suggesting you go against what your NUT says but, with as little as you eat at one time, there's no way you're getting enough calories or protein. No wander you're hungry. I would think you would have to eat several meals per day until you are able to eat more at each meal.
  21. Can't remember if I checked in or not, so here goes HW - 410 10/21 - 360 ( start of challenge) Challenge goal - 349 Today - 345.8!!' New challenge goal -340
  22. My NUT says 30 g at a time. Didn't ask about how long between but I would assume a couple hours or so.
