I stick to my 1200 calories during the week. On the weekends, if I have something going on, I stick to my calories needed to maintain. (The extra 500) I've always said I'll never go on a diet because the minute I say I can't have something, I'm doomed from the begining. I was in NYC for a yankees game and you betcha I got…

Little support from significant other
My boyfriend offers little support for my weight loss goals. He tries, bless his heart. But he's just one of those guys that can eat whatever he wants, whenever, never workout and never gain an ounce. He's really not that interested in getting healthy either, I have tried. I get really frustrated sometimes when I am trying…

Forever on my mind...
I know I need to log my food or I lose control of what I eat. My problem is that after a few days of logging I start to feel like I am constantly thinking about food. What to eat next? When to eat next? How many calories? Did I log that? And so on and so on. All this thinking about food gets me hungry. So I get frustrated…

Kaiser roll vs hamburger bun?

Always Hungry
Lately (the last week or so) I have been consistantly hungry. It doesn't matter what I eat (protein, carbs, vegies, etc) , within half an hour I am starving. I had an array of blood tests and glucose sugar tests done a few weeks ago due to other medical issues and they all came back normal. Has anyone else had this issue?…
