Feeling pretty discouraged this week. Can't seem to make any progress. I REALLY need to be more conscious about my snacking. Hoping to get on track by next weigh-in, so I can at least get close to my June goal0 -

Figuring out maintenance, imo, is a bit of a sliding scale, particularly with fluctuations and what not, and honestly what you need day to day. Seeing as it's your first few weeks, just keep an eye on things/the trend and reassess next week as to whether you need to add another 100 cals a day or so. The problem with MFP calories for maintenance is that they're so general. For me, they were roughly 200 cals under what I actually needed. I eat a basic 2000cals and then add in my exercise calories after and eat them all back. My estimation of ex. cals burned, not MFP's inflated rate. It works for me.
My roundabout point is that you shouldn't feel like you're failing because you don't have it figured out yet.0 -
@glassofroses thank you. I will.0

I totally feel your pain. Snacking is one of my favorite hobbies. I noticed snacking more throughout the day in every 2 to 2.5 hour increments keeps me full and then making sure not to snack after dinner of course helps a lot.

I'm the same as you, I get to the point where I'm so hungry and tired I just eat whatever is quick.

Scale is finally pointing in the right direction again. Happy to see that its not still going up.
I have adjusted my end of month goal to be 178lbs
I don't know if it's technically acceptable to adjust your goals, but I am trying to be realistic with myself based on my progress thus far. I still think I can lose a little weight from where I started at the beginning of the month.
In the last two days, I have really paid attention to my eating. Cutting myself off after about 7pm. I've been thinking all the time about my portions. I've climbed twice this week and went to my fitness center at work once! I plan to go again today. Definitely a step up from last week. I notice SUCH a difference when I can get my food under control. It's all mental for me. Spacing out my meals/snacks. Not going too overboard in the morning, so that I can still eat more throughout the day and feel full.
I am meeting a friend for dinner tonight and it's this really great mexican restaurant. I was wondering if any of you have tips for eating out at mexican restaurants? This place has an incredible cheese/queso dip that is free and comes with chips and salsa. I'm wondering should i steer clear of the queso all together? Sometimes it gives me stomach aches (normally because I overindulge). Should i just have chips and salsa? Also for dinner, I was thinking of just ordering one fish taco or a tostada a la carte. If I am going to be eating chips, I don't need rice and beans with my meal. Anyways this may seem a bit over analytical, but I am really hoping to move into the 170s in my weight next week, and i don't want to blow it over the weekend! Any eating out tips and tricks are greatly appreciated.
Happy Friday everyone!2 -
No advice really on Mexican food, maybe fajitas? You could have maybe only 1 wrap?1

I'm a bit late but I've been extremely busy with work. I've stayed at exactly the same weight as last week. I have to say I think this time it's probably a small muscle gain, as I have 1cm less around the waist and thighs plus zero bloat.
On the other hand, I have been completely slacking on cardio (only 10-15 mins a couple of days) and just weight lifting so I have to stop pretending I can get away with that. Yesterday I did 30 minutes of elliptical and it wasn't bad at all! So hopefully will get that going this week and see the scale move again.

I have been a bad girl around sweets lately. I guess I need a stronger incentive for staying away from eating sweets. My clothes fit very well (size 2) and I think I need to buy a pair of shorts in size 0 to get my motivation back!!!
Good luck to all!

@2tall4thisworld Try to stay away from creamier sauces? Salsa is always good. I'm a terrible bet when it comes to Mexican because I love refried beans, usually in quesadillas, and sipping tequila. Actually the whole style of food is amazing to me. But I always like to get a plain salad because a) I like my salad without dressing/you can ask for it on the side and add to your liking and b) you can fill up more on that and then enjoy whatever you order until you're full.
At the end of the day, you can and should enjoy your food and your date with your friend. Just be aware of your choices and when you're actually full and it should be fine.2 -

Okay, this is not good. I really did not fall off the wagon so much as have "too much of a good thing." (Do you know how good the fruit is this time of year? Do you have any idea how much I can put away?) Sigh. Next week will be better!0 -

I lost a bit because most of the weight I gained from 150 to 154.2 was due to me eating a lot of sodium.1 -

I can completely relate to this, I love fruit. The season is so short though it seems like such a waste not to gorge on it
Winter currently here in NZ so I'm hoping to be at maintenance before I hit this issue again.1 -

I survived mexican food night! @glassofroses you are 100% right. Salad always helps me feel full, and salsa is definitely a better alternative to queso/creamy sauces. Next mexican food date night I will be mostly sticking to the salsa. I didn't get too out of control this time which is good! No binging at all this weekend. I had a long full day in the sun on Saturday hiking and climbing. Then Sunday, I walked to my gym (1.7 miles one way) and then did some weight training and walked home. Needless to say, my whole body is sun burnt and sore. I'm ready to kick off the week in the best way! I'm going to try to hit my work fitness center once a day this week. I'm really feeling a lot better about being able to control my portions. I think I can do so even more if I really put my mind to it.
Happy Monday!1 -

Struggles/Success: I totally feel you @xelsoo . I Still have a cough but I am feeling better. I have got to stop the bites, licks etc. Tighten up that logging this week as well as start the program in the new environment. Make it as much of a habit here as at home.1
