Your workout ends. You are: STARVING! or lost your appetite
So which is it? It depends for me. Today I worked off about 600 calories (estimate) and then I ate 700 because I felt like I was going to pass out if I didn't eat lol. When I had only worked out for 45 minutes I felt not hungry, but after 90 minutes I needed food asap or I would probably have cried a little. Lmso

Things you MUST HAVE IN FRIDGE
Simply curious, what are your staple foods that you keep stocked up in your pantry, refrigerator, freezer? Items that you use to continue eating healthy, are pretty much an everyday occurance. IE: Mine would be soy milk, mounds of blueberries, and greek yogurt.

Anyway has anyone seen…

Adding exercise is lessening my daily intake?
I'm a bit confused. After todays weigh-in a message popped up saying that since I've lost over 10 pounds I should adjust my goals. So I did, but all I changed is the amount of time I spend working out (30mins to 60mins) since I've been making more time for exercising. So here's the thing, if I'm working out more then why…

feel like I eat a ton (of healthy stuff) but still hungry
For starters, I don't have detailed food journals but I'm going to start tracking for a week to create one. Food/nutrition/health has been a long term part of my life.

Making the jump from 1400 calories to almost 2000?! Yikes!!

After reading IPOARM (In place of a road map), I now realize that what was suggested for calories a day may have been hindering my progress. I am 5’6” and weigh 168…
