Topic: RE: Decaf coffee question
I drink Decaf...My Doc said I can drink regular provided I get my full 64oz fluids not including the coffee.

If it has caffiene then it doesn't count toward your daily intake of fluids because It is a diuretic.

Enjoy your Decaf...

Topic: RE: that won't happen to me.....
 Welcome back Doggz..

You are gonna rock this. I was reading your posts before I was inspired by you in my 6 month diet and was rooting for you during your struggles getting approved.

Hang in there.

I guess I am different than most as the store doesn't bother me nor do any foods etc.
Because of this I have to stay even more diligent in my thought processes.

GOOD LUCK DUDE AND WELCOME TO THE BENCH!!!!!

 Get back out there. Tons of decent guys in KC.

I checked out your pics and you are a beautiful woman both before and after weight loss. 
You might consider a bit of counseling for the self confidence issue.

Good luck and never give up!

Topic: RE: Carbs - Vitamins - CONTROL!!! NET CARBS?
My vitamins are 20g of my daily carb intake. I am taking Vitafusion Gummies.
4 multivit a day
3 fiber
2 calcium

Per the doc I am supposed to be taking 6 of the calcium but that would give me another 12 carbs for the day. WTH - Suggestions?

Is it right to use net carb calculations? (carbs - fiber grams = net carbs)

Just am not losing like I expected. I think about 2 lbs in the last 8 days. I am trying to be good!!!

Topic: RE: Liquids - how do you do it?
I do IT work so I am up down all around the building. Everytime I come to my office I drink 3-5 swallows. Everytime I sit down a couple more. then everytime I stand up a couple more.

I am currently getting in 64-90oz a day. Sometimes I am below but that has to be a really busy day. I shoot for 40oz @ work then the remainder @ home so I am not up all night peeing.

Good lick and sip sip sip....

Boy howdy do we both do it...Well I was worried last week when you said you were gonna but I remained supportive but should have kicked ya butt.

We are already depriving ourselves of our love affair with food for multiple years, We have decided to do something about it and remove the ability to love it like we used to. Now we cannot go and deprive our bodies of the nutrients it needs to survive otherwise mother nature will let you know and she did and now fix it! 

I love ya girl so don't try to waste yourself away because of a smaller waist faster mentality.

Hang around, take it as it comes and enjoy the ride....
