    IF they are raspberry filled then you are getting your fruit right?? Weight loss yes. Healthy. NO
    Maybe you'd be getting your raspberry ketones from that filling too....and we all know Dr. Oz says raspberry ketones make the fat melt right off your body! :tongue:

    Of course you could do this. That's how you can still maintain your weight and eat a piece a cake. Eating a piece of cake doesn't necessarily make you gain weight.

    However, the real issue here is that 1300 calories worth of donuts is not going to be many donuts. 4 maybe depending where they're from, cream filled, etc. Can you live off 4 donuts a day? I'm gonna say know. You'd be super hungry, so you'd either need to eat somthing else, or eat more donuts.

    So, I am assuming you like donuts since you picked that food, so, you can diet and eat a donut every once in awhile if you want. Even everyday if you want. As long as it fits in your calorie goal, it would be ok. If you go to a chain, like Dunkin Donuts, they have the nutrition info on their website. I honestly even think eating donuts (or whatever food you like) every once in awhile is a good thing and will keep you on track. If you depreive yourself of it, you might fall off the wagon and have 10 donuts! :happy:

    My personal experience: I ate 1200, then 1500 calories of processed junk and booze for 7 months. Lost 2 pounds at first and then NOTHING. Not a single ounce after that. The very month I switched to healthy food and cut down on booze I lost 5 pounds. Still on 1500 calories. Healthy makes a difference.

    Did you have to bring up the donuts? I just gave up 2 chocolate covered donuts everyday on my way to work. LOL Now I make my coffee at home or at work and bring something healthy to eat for breakfast. IT IS KILLING ME I am dying for my donuts but I can't eat just one I have to have two so decided best to just give it up all together. I don't agree eating just donuts and you would loose weight don't see how that is possible but to each is own. I hope giving them up will show next week at my weigh in but time will tell.

    Think about it logically, though. Would you agree that eating nothing but a single donut a day you would lose weight? How about half a donut? In fact you'd probably starve to death. It doesn't make sense to say you could eat less than you burn and not lose weight.

    By the way, if you have trouble when donuts and things like that are mentioned I'd probably stay away from the forums.

    Yeah it's like you eat one, then you have to make sure the first one was as good as you thought, so you eat another. :)

    How did you know how many calories of booze you were having? Most alcohol is very high in calories, and most of it isn't labelled. And if you were drinking it at a bar, mixed drinks would be even harder to tell. I think you would have been ok eating processed crap. I think it is the booze that did you in. I try to avoid it all together when dieting.
