No game

An example of the business aspect... American's insatiable thirst for fast fixes and fast food has bred a multi-billion dollar weight loss industry. Fad diets, weight loss supplements, DVDs, and diet pills were only the beginning. Now, people are opting for elective surgery to lose weight fast. In recent years, ads for the "Lap Band" have sprung up all over the place, promising instant weight loss with zero work. The Lap Band procedure(advertised through 1-800-GET-THIN) is actually a serious surgical operation in which a ring is implanted inside the patient's gut to discourage eating. But while the company's ads show their selective clientele jumping for joy after having lost hundreds of pounds, Congress is not as thrilled. On Tues January 24, Rep. Henry Waxman and 2 other house members sent a letter to the House Energy and Commerce Committee urging that Congress investigate 1-800-GET-THIN and Allergan Inc., the manufacturer of the Lap Band.

Do three cups of coffee count as my morning water? Ok I'm going to start thinking about exercise now.. And after a bit of thinking I might even start

Silly mouse But really no one here can predict how you will feel... If you had to cancel are your tickets refundable? If not, are you ok "eating" the cost? You may feel ok or you may have complications It's kinda the luck of the draw type thing...

I was eating the premier bars 30 grams of protein but high calories 280? So I no longer buy them. I did like them though

I don't take a ppi just because I never felt I had an issue with acid.. I know that's what everyone says! I have a premier shake everyday for breakfast or sometimes Greek yogurt with 1 Splenda and frozen blueberries ( from you) In this six months I've only ever gone to 900 to 1000 calories a couple of times... I think I spend my days trying not to eat very much at all.. Today I went to too seven hindered (A little lower than normal) but kept with mostly Protein and some raw veggies and feel a lot more satisfied.. Honestly the last couple of weeks I stopped tracking but then I spent all day trying not to eat.. I might have been over eating but I might of been UNDER EATING!! Because I was shocked today when I added up my totals earlier and they were not quite 400... Breakfast; shake 160 lunch can of tuna in Water shredded cabbages and carrot and a bit of bolt house dressing... No Snacks...

One of the biggest talked about subjects here? Calories! And metabolism! Do I eat 600 calories for the next year or should I push over a thousand! Oops that might already be in the last book?

Hehehe... We got this girl! Oh I feel more motivated today! I even drank MORE. Than 64 oz of water! . girl I usually hit 64 and say "ok I'm done" You and I exercise tomorrow! We will check in here! Where EVERYONE can see!

I'm 6 months.. I can eat more calories in a day. Today just came out low because I was upset about weight loss but what did go right today was upping the protein! I usually say ok as long as I hit 60 but today I tried to go higher! What do you think of 800 to 900 calories and 90+ Protein Oh and Leeann come back!! I've highjacked your thread!!!

Andy I got 700 calories and 91 grams of protein today! 36 carbs 18 fat

I know I cannot imagine eating 171 grams of protein.. 0__o

I read about what your dietitian recommended.. Something with Protein and healthy fats like the almonds would be good.. It might help with you dizzy spells too.. I know it's hard to add more food! But add something with nutrition. Measure out a small serving of nuts or Plain Greek yogurt ( i add one splenda) with a couple of blue berries.. It doesn't have to be a lot more food, just add one more "small" snack but make it count.

Then I would stay away from the jello... 0_o

6 months out.... Umm yes I get hungry!! I get satisfied with less but my body still needs food and tells me that its time to eat with hunger

OMG??? I'm 47 in a couple of weeks.. 5'4 171-172 And have the exercise level of a cripple slug! I'm to scared I know I will gain weight! I want to cry

I don't know I hope not... There's that whole nudity thing but I wish there was a way that just the women could see them.

Girl I'm glad I saw these before they get taken down! Looking good!

When I do those numbers the Protein comes up SO high but I'm hungry all the time now so I'm getting frustrated I am not losing anymore I bounce up and down a pound now... My metabolism is so screwed I know I've been on my fair share of "doctor supervised diets" at 600 to 800 calories I could write a book! I'm scared I'm hungry and I just added up my calories for the day so far and I'm not even at 500 I'm literally distraught today! Sorry Leeann Does that calculator I put up work or should I try another site??

I'm getting so confused Andy it all seems overwhelming...

Hey Leeann here's a tdee calculator that some people are using the Protein #s are a little crazy but.... http://iifym.com/tdee-calculator/ http://iifym.com/iifym-calculator/
