When did you?

I just realized that I have made a huge step...

I now "have to eat" to reach my calories, not exercise more to burn what I ate!

Who else has made this monumental step? :flowerforyou:

Yes. I have too... actually since I have done this site, I have not gone over my calories. Thought that was a good thing, till I started reading what everyone here said.
Tonight is the first time I have gone over.. I had subway for dinner.
But I still have my nightly workout to add.. so.. It will go back to normal.
I was not that far over

Its a good feeling
I have lost 7-8 lbs

hmmmm

I used to think a long time ago that if I had a lot of activity for the day I could eat more but now I see how little calories I was earning and how much of a reward I thought I should get. With this site I now see how reality works. I will never eat then promise exercise because I have two young babies and sometimes I can not forsee how much exercise I will do. More often than not my exercise is only my daily activities. The best thing for me seems to be controlling how much I eat to begin with. I am down 14 lbs since December 6th and this is the way it works. It seems like a lightbulb went off in my head. I love this site
