    If I'm not hungry, I don't eat? I figure I could save those cals for the weekend when I want an extra drink or a nice dinner ;)

    ^^^ this...why eat if you aren't humgry
    Because I don't want to lose much muscle too....i don't have many pig out days per month. Usually 2 around the beginning of my cycle. Even those though, I eat around my calories.

    I understand that...I just know I can't force myself to eat if I'm not hungry.

    How did you get into the position to lose weight if you don't get hungry?

    lol...really?

    Yea, really.

    not very smart, huh? Age, genetics, activity level...I don't binge and I'm not an emotional eater. Do the math smart guy...I can eat like a normal person and not do any exercise and I'm gonna gain weight...gasp...I just explained how I gained my weight! :laugh:

    :D Zing!

    I will leave it at this. I know you're pretty new here and have enjoyed flat out calling people dumb, stupid, calling them not smart and all. That approach won't fly around here and you'll find yourself getting banned fairly quickly.

    And if you gained weight, you ate higher than your maintenance. It's basic math.

    ^^ This.

    I can become a pig in the evening if I'm feeling lazy and procrastinating something like a chore or just getting myself to bed. Sounds silly, I know. I'll be completely not hungry one minute and decide I'm craving something and dying of 'hunger' the next.

    Story of my life.

    I really can't comprehend this.

    Generally I am hungry before all my meals/snacks. But if I have calories left and am not overly hungry, you can guarantee that most days I'll find something to spend them on (dessert, a glass of wine...). Food is delicious and whilst I'm trying to eat a lot less in order to lose weight (17lbs down, 8 to go!) if I can eat something else, I will.
