This one just aggravated me! I don't understand why people are so against using a food scale?! I get not using one if you're having success without it but I LOVE knowing exactly how much of something I'm eating. I was losing before I started using one but I bought one because I really wanted to know EXACTLY how much I was eating each day!
Exactly. If I didn't use my food scale I'm pretty sure I'd still be around 250 pounds.
I pretty much weigh everything except for yogurt cups like Chobani, Dannon, or Yoplait.
Some of my protein bars/fiber bars can be 15-30+ calorie higher than they should & if you're at a smaller deficit with not much to lose it can hinder your progress greatly if you're off on everything you're eating. I also use it to weigh stuff like cereal, ice cream, & peanut butter since it's so easy to overestimate what a serving is. The first time I weighed out cereal on my food scale I thought what a ripoff & then put two more servings in the bowl:D. There are times I am shocked at how big a serving of peanut butter is, but if it's something like Cookie Spread or Nutella then again I am like what a ripoff.
I'll admit I've even weighed & measured one chip or cracker which I did today with my Triscuit cracker today.
At least I am not as OCD as the lady who takes her food scale to the grocery store.
I don't get people who use cups but think a food scale is too OCD either. It's easier, less dishes, and more accurate, so it just puzzles me. Plus it helps with eyeballing skills as at least you know what a 'cup' of broccoli is actually supposed to look like.
And packaged goods... gosh. Just my shortcake yesterday was 50 more calories than what the package said. Those delicious Graze flapjacks? I had one that was 80 more calories. It really adds up when your deficit is small...
What gets to me though is people who don't weigh their food then complain that their TDEE is so low. It's really not... they're just eating more than they think. I have some friends on here who have about the same stats as me, about the same activity, but maintain 400 calories lower. So either I'm a special snowflake, or they're really clueless about food portion.
But I guess if you keep a bigger deficit or underestimate your TDEE and don't weigh your food, it works too. People just have to find something that works with them. Me, I like having as much information as I can, because my relationship with food is pretty unhealthy in the first place (or I wouldn't be here!).
The funny thing though is that even when I know that I weighed all my foods, on days like today when I'm so full after 1200 calories (don't get me wrong, I still found things to get to my 1800 calories), I can't help wondering if I did something wrong.0 -
I know this isn't as deep as some of the confessions here but today I watched the first episode of The Newlyweds starring Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey. I heard the show's theme song and got goosebumps. It really hit me right in the0

So. Susieq... I am sorry you feel badly right now, you were MORE than missed (you know I missed you as I came looking for you so I could watch that you were logging in even if you weren't posting) and you will get through this. Fasting isn't going to make it better...it has to cause a fixation with food even if you think it won't. But once you are through this you can work on it 24/7 and find what works for you. Just remember... you are not defined by your weight or your looks. You are an incredibly special person, which is obvious from your poems, your writing, and your comments in this thread. In the end that is what counts. Do we remember Mother Theresa for her looks? Abraham Lincoln? Is Oprah any less a person because she struggles with her weight (not that I am a fan of Oprah but looking for modern equivalents). Never define yourself by that. Its what is in your heart that matters.
XOXOXOXO
Will check back in later and finish this when I get home!
Thank you so much. I wasn't hoping so much that it would help me stop overeating, more that it would show me that being hungry can't actually defeat me and I'm stronger than my hunger. Kind of like a confidence boost, if you will. I have hope that *that* particular thing will happen--handling hunger always becomes easier when you've fasted for a while. It definitely doesn't help with appetite, which is why I (usually) prepare our meal while I'm still fasting and eat only what I've set in front of me (We start with dates and water, then pray the Maghrib prayer, then we eat the prepared meal)--because by then you want to eat EVERYTHING.
I totally got the warm fuzzies when you came and added me here on MFP, because I was sure that it was because I went missing from the thread for a while! I even mentioned that to my husband.
I agree with you that looks should never define us, and yet I hold myself to a standard that I would never hold someone else to. I just feel so angry because I always swore to myself that I would never let myself get to this point again (heading for the overweight range), and yet here I am. I've let myself down in a big way, and I'm definitely not feeling particularly special sitting here in my new fat pants.
For those who have mentioned it: I don't think God is judging me for my struggles or taking away the reward of my fast because of them. In the Qur'an, we are told that every person will be judged by their true intention, and that God alone knows what is in the heart. He knows that I'm struggling but still trying, and that's enough. But *I* want to feel that special Ramadan spirituality and the essence and simplicity of fasting--and feeling bloaty and sick all the time is making that very hard.
I've just eaten a light suhoor, the one I pre-logged, and the fast has started--a small success for me, since I immediately felt an urge to abandon my log and eat a bunch of random food when I walked into the kitchen to prepare suhoor. Maybe I CAN do this.0 -

You are here, so that's something!0 -
Is anyone who hangs out here a volume eater who's also successful with their weight loss and fitness? I am referring someone over here to MFP from the 'loseit' subreddit on reddit.com (the 'loseit' community is fantastic, btw). She binges on junk because she just needs to feel full, but really liked the suggestion I picked up here about cooking a whole bag of frozen veggies and eating those instead. I'm pretty sure I've seen similar suggestions from other volume eaters but was hoping I could either get more suggestions or maybe even a name or two to refer her to.
I'm useless to her because I'm one of those 'three small meals and two medium snacks per day' people who's never been able to eat high volume even when I was eating too many calories.
Thanks kindly for any help or information.
I am sometimes a volume eater. You can eat a lot of cucumber, cauliflower, tomatoes, peas, broccoli, celery, or basically any veggie for small calories.
Dannon Plain yogurt is 100 calories for 225 grams & I will sometimes have two servings & add in cereal or peanut butter for a pretty big meal.
My lunch tomorrow will be brown rice, spinach, grape tomatoes, Kraft Fat free dressing, & a whole can of reduced sodium green beans.0 -
@Susieq_1994 you CAN do this and you have the support of everyone in this thread!0

me too, but to (kinda) contribute to the guacamole postings, I just want to face plant in a pile of it. LOVE it. I seriously think I like it better than ice cream. I've been known to eat a whole avocado with salt and a spoon. I want to eat ALL the things today, but by things I mean guac and cheddar cheese and sour cream.

I'll admit I've even weighed & measured one chip or cracker which I did today with my Triscuit cracker today.
At least I am not as OCD as the lady who takes her food scale to the grocery store.
I don't get people who use cups but think a food scale is too OCD either. It's easier, less dishes, and more accurate, so it just puzzles me. Plus it helps with eyeballing skills as at least you know what a 'cup' of broccoli is actually supposed to look like.
And packaged goods... gosh. Just my shortcake yesterday was 50 more calories than what the package said. Those delicious Graze flapjacks? I had one that was 80 more calories. It really adds up when your deficit is small...
What gets to me though is people who don't weigh their food then complain that their TDEE is so low. It's really not... they're just eating more than they think.

A lot of people; unfortunately, still think they have to eat 1,200 calories or less to lose weight which is just sad. Think about how many people post on here routinely saying they can't eat over 1,000 calories & have a 100+ pounds to lose. Most of the times in that case they aren't weighing their food on a food scale & are vastly eating over their calories & possibly maintenance.
Just look at health magazines & the bogus diets & claims they offer such as Women's World. Women's World a few weeks ago had a cover that said lose 30 pounds in 30 days. Yeah lose 30 pounds in 30 days & then gain 60 pounds back.
Usually with my Fitbit (I find it to be pretty reliable) I burn anywhere from 2100-2300 calories a day; occasionally, a little more if I am more active with exercise.
I always laugh at the fact that I can weigh something & then one minute later I find I forget how much it weighed & then just overestimate how much it was.0 -
During two interchanges this weekend I reacted defensively to comments that, on further investigation, turned out to actually be compliments. This has made me realize that in spite of a lot of personal insight, I'm still having problems thinking of myself as "ok".0

My most embarrassing moment.
Too funny! Breastfeeding, for me, was always uncomfortable. My son, the first kiddo, never took to it which was probably in part due to the fact that I wasn't that excited about it. I joked at the time that he was the first male to ever refuse...my chest area. LOL! I did BF, mostly pumped because I'm OCD, my daughter, the second and last kiddo, for about six months. I justified BF'd her because she had to go to daycare at six weeks while I was able to stay home with my son for the first eight months.
I didn't breast feed my son and sometimes I feel guilty about that especially because he was premature.
THIS so much!0 -
Went shopping for new (bigger) clothes. Bought a box of Crunchberry cereal on the way home and stress ate the box after reality hit me that the 25 lbs. Gained actually was noticeable. I did buy some PB 2 at the same time anticipating getting back on track. The small cup of Crunchberry left in the morning I made a PB 2 mix to coat it with and ate that for breakfast, that may actually be a good thing to do to a less noxious cereal. Took a couple days to reload MFP back in my phone and have done better for a week or so.0
