I find this to be so true! I almost went over my calories last night because my mom made her delicious cookies! But I resisted :smile:

Do you agree with the saying that nothing tastes as good as skinny feels?

    Definitely do not feel that this saying fits me. I want to be strong. For me skinny means weak. Nothing feels as better than being able to lift, move, run, stand, dance, hold longer, heavier, faster than i ever could. Plus i love food. Eat the freaking cookie just dont have all of them. lol

    This. If I want a treat, I can have it....as long as I'm willing to sweat it out later. :) Good will power though!

    First, that saying is used in the pro-eating disorder world, so you'll see a LOT of distaste for it here. Second, it implies that looking good is more important than eating. And third, yes, being strong, fit and healthy is better than skinny any day.

    I have only been at this just under 4 weeks. i have have found that if I deprive myself, I get frustrated and binge later. So I just have the cookie or whatever and then just remember that I have to work out, no ifs, and or buts. And Im finding way to have the food I want and making them fit into my calorie goals by modifying them. By the way if you like brownies, I suggest trying black bean brownies! And make them in cupcake cup liner thingies for precise portion control and a feeling like you are getting a big giant brownie

    YES.

    I've been there and I don't ever want to go back.


    OH and have a frickin' cookie! It won't kill ya or automatically put on another pound. Everything in moderation.

    No - I could not disagree more.

    You might believe that if you eat low-fat, altered, diet food. But if you eat food how food was meant to be eaten, you eat less and are satisfied immeasurably more.

    I am not here to get skinny - I am here to get strong and fit and healthy - and eating delicious whole foods fits in perfectly with my plan.

    nope, not at all. But, then again, I came from a "skinny" background and HATED it. I love the new curvy, healthy, athletic me. I struggled to put the weight back on for years, so there is nothing off limits to me, except for right now, and that was just cutting back (a little) on carbs and a lot on fat in my "trimming down" phase, but that's only 2 and a half more weeks, then I can go back to eating whatever I want, as long as I budget it in.
