I want to pay attention to my hunger, rather than just eating because it seems like it is mealtime.

    I find that a lot of times I am not hungry but must eat a meal to maintain my minimum calorie intake. I am excited to join this group, it makes a big difference when you are held accountable!

    I've noticed that on heavy workout days it can give me a ridiculous amount of additional calories and I find it hard to consume what it is asking me to without breaking out a pint of Haagen Dazs. Any suggestions on how to use those calories or do you think it is better to just not eat them?

  • Usually better to not eat earned calories. You should be able to loose faster just eating your normal amount without adding extras on exercise days, unless just a bit more protien.
