    It happens to most of it. The important thing is that you TRY really hard to at least net your 1200... if you aren't feeding your body enough (whether you feel hungry or not) it WILL retaliate...

    I have found that if I am eating the same things all the time that I eat less.I think that there was just a study posted that found that to be a fact. I'm losing weight quickly though and I think that it is partly because I am eating my calories. If you don't then your body will start holding on to everything you eat and you won't be losing. Could be one of the reasons why the one person said they had hit a plateau. One of the things that I do to make food more interesting is look up recipes online and in my cookbooks. I have started getting into the slow cooker again since I don't always have time and it smells yummy when I get home. Try to change things up and get creative. It makes it more fun that way I think...
