    You need to make sure to eat throughout the day. It's more important that you be eating and satisfied than starving. If you are eating too little your body will start eating muscles instead of fat. It's the worst thing you can do to your body. Really.

    Please make sure you are eating. Don't punish yourself for having a little treat. Punishing yourself or talking down to yourself will not help you lose weight.

    You need to love yourself. The more love you have for yourself the higher chances are that you will make better food choices and can get yourself out for excersise.

    Don't worry, be happy! It's ok. Walk it off but remember to eat in the future.

    Are you over your calories? If not, then I don't see what the problem is. What is your calorie goal set at?

    IF you are really 18 (which it doesn't seem like you are), then:

    Plug your numbers (weight, goals, etc) and eat within the calorie goal that it gives you. Then you won't freak out over every little thing you eat, and hopefully you won't do dumb stuff like not eat all day.

    I ate a king sized Hershey's Special Dark chocolate bar and don't even for guilty for the calories or the fact that it is a piss poor excuse for dark chocolate. It's to dark chocolate what 100 calories are to eating healthy...

    I eat something chocolate almost every day, usually ice cream, its fine as long as its in your calorie goal. Don't think you have to be miserable and starving to loose weight. Follow the suggestions you have gotten on here and don't starve yourself.

    Food is not bad.

    Eat what you want, fit it in your macros. I'm assuming you're not eating enough, because you don't really seem like you're eating enough based off this post. Since your diary is private, we can't look at it and help you.

    So many thoughts.

    1.) You need to eat. For your health, and so you don't burn out and give up.
    2.) There's nothing wrong with M&Ms. But you do need to try to get enough nutrients, so start out with some actual meals first.
    3.) Life is too short to eat bad food. I hate those frozen dinners and it sounds like you do too. Just work the food you actually want to eat into your calorie goal.


    Read this and follow the instructions:

    Please read the links that we've posted. It doesn't sound like you plan to figure out what your proper calorie intake is. If you're eating 500 calories a day, and you increase your intake to something more sustainable, like 1500 (just an example, I have no idea what you need to be eating), you may see some gain until your body realizes this is how it's gonna be, and then you'll start losing. An increase in carb intake will cause that, anyway, but you'll be fine. Get a food scale. Weigh your food. Be accurate. Don't starve.
