    Yes I hate dieting. And yes I hate it even when it's a lifestyle change. And yes I hate it even when things fit my macros. Yeah I can have cake or a hamburger or drinks as part of my diet, but I want multiple drinks and cakes and hamburgers. I want to go on a cheese rampage every day. I want to eat piles of lasagna and loads of chicken paprikas. I want to eat brunches and then be able to go and have a huge dinner seven hours later. I want mega meatballs, apple pies, and barbecue sandwiches. I want to eat like I ate when I was in Vegas. I want to eat all day every day, and no matter how you look at dieting, whether it's staying under a certain amount of calories, a "lifestyle change," staying in your macros, etc., the truth is for me if I consumed all the food I wanted I would be like those people on the 600 pound life. I just absolutely love food. It tastes so good.


    Oooh edited to add I want to eat whole pizzas for lunch and hot dogs for lunch dessert, with a post lunch pre pre dinner strawberry cheesecake snack. I'd throw some avocados and bananas in there too.


    This is totally me!!!!
    Although I ate a lot on my "date night" on Saturday and I realized that I would have felt much betteer the next day had I exercised portion control.
    Maybe my stomach is shrinking?

    Add for me too!
    I'm also on 1200 net now that I'm closer to my goal I'm really feeling it. These are days I really wish I had my boyfriend's metabolism. I'd love to be able to cut at 2400, but unfortunately I'm a small female who is very close to goal and I'm stuck eating 1800. I want the foodz!!!

    I hated it for the first few weeks and I realized just how much sugar and salt I was consuming was putting my body in to a withdrawal like state where I was cranky and always wanting junk. After some time and some back and forth with foods, my taste buds have changed. I crave hummus and cucumber now and pitas with feta and chicken and a ton of veggies.

    My sweet tooth has also gotten more sophisticated where I don't like the cheap junk so much anymore and lean more towards the higher quality much less often than the bad quality stuff.

    Yup, I always hate it. I hate counting calories.

    The only thing I love is exercise. But exercise doesn't negate eating too many calories (so I've learned over the past several years of exercising WHILE gaining weight)

    I try to make sure to do enjoyable things on the weekends, like drink a bottle of wine, and make sure it fits in my calories, so that I'm not totally tortured while doing this weight loss thing.
