The Biggest Loser DGN Style

[Oh_My_Goth]

165lbs of dick is definitely not LITTLE..

Today's food is..

Not great for you carb watchers, but it's really good for those of us looking out for fat, calories, and fiber.

My favorite is the Roasted Onion, which has 110 calories, 0 fat, 7g fiber

Coupled with one of these..

is YUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I refuse to give up carbs.....

& I loves Me some bagels

I know, it's really hard for me to do as well. I figured I will chase the fat, calorie, and fiber demons, I can't always chase the carb demons.. that's the hardest one for me to kick.

Whole wheat bagels (if you MUST have them) is a healthy alternative. even if it says the carb count is higher, your body processes it a little different than white bread bagels. whole wheat, and multi-grains are always a healthy alternative to white breads, ect.

I have cut back allot on the carbs... & that's a big step for Me considering the fact that the majority of me food intake, for years, was all carb based

{which was never a problem in Me 20's }

Instead, I decided to give up excessive snacking, eating at night, and candy & that seems to be working great

I don't snack excessively anymore. I love Newman Os now. They're REALLY yummy, and I don't eat a whole row like I did with Oreos. IF I eat at night, it's a bowl with a 1-cup serving of Special K. I'm avoiding candy as well. A piece here and there isn't horrible, but I'm avoiding it just the same.

The poop is beginning to look....interesting.

"Interesting" may not be the best description. LOL

[torn asunder]

"Interesting" may not be the best description. LOL

doods, seriously, as a fellow board member, could we dispense with the poop discussion and description in this thread? i really don't give a shit (HA!) about what your bowels are doing every day.

if you're really that interested in sharing that kind of info, maybe start a "colon-blow" thread or something, so those of us who really don't want to hear about "aliens" can avoid that thread like the plague!!!

Butt it's all part of the discussion. The cleansing is part of the weight loss thing. I'm not describing what it looks like.THAT would be gross. But, if you've ever done a colon cleanse, it IS interesting. I cannot be helped.

Whole wheat bagels (if you MUST have them) is a healthy alternative. even if it says the carb count is higher, your body processes it a little different than white bread bagels. whole wheat, and multi-grains are always a healthy alternative to white breads, ect.

Actually these bagels have WAY fewer carbs in it that your average bagel, in fact, 1/2.

Your bagel may say "whole wheat" but it doesn't have less fat, or fewer calories. In fact, the nutrition information for a whole wheat, what would seem to be "healthier" bagel from places like Panera or Einsteins (or even packaged bagels) is worse for you calorie, fiber and fat wise than the Asiago Cheese bagel, no kidding!! I was freaking out at that. It has more carbs and shit.

I rather eat a bagel with 26g carb, 7g fiber (which will process WAY better in my system) compared to a 350 calorie, 56g carb 1g fiber whole wheat bagel.

Just something to chew on.

I know, I hinted at that a few posts back but it went unnoticed 'cause even though colon blow may have something to do with weight-loss, it's not necessary to have like two whole damn pages of it .

They are doing it for dieting reasons, so I find it perfectly acceptable...

& I say whatever keeps this thread at the top is helpful... Colon cleansing is a great kick start to weight loss

Hmmm...so is that first bagel white bread? Odd, must be fortified, your body would prefer nutrients from a natural source like whole wheat, but not if the nutrition facts for that second bagel is accurate! Crazy! I've wondered why sometimes the package says "whole wheat" but then you'll look at the back and notice only 1-2 grams of fiber...wtf?!? Buyer beware, right? I think maybe it's "watered down" whole wheat somehow, like they're only using the minimum amount required by the FDA to be able to slap the whole wheat label on it.

If you can, Hunhee, I wouldn't go with either option, I'd go with a whole wheat bagel that has 6-7 grams of fiber in it, they do exist and your body will <3 you even more.

...cold passed up a TWIX last night!!!

& Surprisingly enough it was not hard

[taysteewonderbunny]

but maybe it's just me, and other people like to hear about other people's shit...

No, not particularly, which is why I had such difficulty reading later Ginsberg.

[Oh_My_Goth]

i understand where you're all coming from, but here's how i see it...

on topic - "hey guys, i'm going to be doing a colon cleanse to jump-start my weight-loss program!"

off-topic - "hey guys, you should have seen the color/size/shape/texture of the shit i took last night!"

while people obviously aren't going into detail about it, the fact is that the "color/size/shape/texture of the shit i took last night" has absolutely no bearing nor benefit to others regarding weight loss.

i mean, seriously, wouldn't it suffice to say, "hey the cleanse worked/is working" and leave it at that? no need to keep bringing it up, because after that, you're just recapping the same implied "color/size/shape/texture of the shit i took last night" thing...

but maybe it's just me, and other people like to hear about other people's shit...

I hear ya

I Scanned the label on the back of my bagel's bag, to share with the rest of the class.

PMSing today, so I am wanting to eat everything in sight. No healthy eating tips for me today!

but maybe it's just me, and other people like to hear about other people's shit...

Not just you...I wasn't gonna say anything, but yeah, it's getting old.

It's probably got the devil's gonads in it, don't really care if it means fewer carbs, over half the calories and 7g fiber. I'm on board!!

I Scanned the label on the back of my bagel's bag, to share with the rest of the class.

good GAWD!!! 49g carbs? even WITH 7g fiber, I still wouldn't eat it, it's 240 calories..

On my cult plan that I'm on, that would cost me 4 points. My bagel costs me 1 point. I can eat 4 of my bagels as apposed to your 1 bagel. eek!!! I'll take mine.

Colon cleansing and focusing on what I'm eating already have me down 10 lbs. In just under 3 weeks. I can also see positive results in O_M_G and Brenda since they've done theirs too.
