I recently stopped breast feeding. While I was, I had upped my calorie goal due to the calories lost and per my doctor. Now I'm not, and haven't been for about a month. I just last week adjusted my calorie goals, and my mind is going crazy!
I've lost weight every week since having my son (5.10.16) and now that I've cut back on calories, my mind just doesn't seem to comprehend it. I find myself craving foods I've never craved before, like the other day it was the greasiest buffalo chicken pizza I could find. It's like I'm craving specifically high calorie foods. I've never had this issue.
I'm drinking enough water to drown a fish, I'm not sure what else I need to do. Is this just a power through it and figure it out type thing?
