in Introduce Yourself
Hi....I need some people that are like me-LOVE FOOD. I started at 1400 calories a day back in March 2011....I was dying. I have lost a bit of weight-60lbs and am stuck because of my love for food. I went to the Doctor and she actually tld me to up my intake to 2000 cals/day! I would like some motivators and cheerleaders who can relate.....I am 35 SAHM mom to 2....I love to workout but hate to starve.

    I'm eating between 1400-1600 right now but I might change that.... it's so hard to know what's the magic number! But it drives me crazy how many people are only eating 1000 calories!!!

    I love food and eat in excess of 2000 calories most days, but I'm in maintenance. If that works for you, feel free to send a request.

    My son is in college and I work 50+ hours per week, but I'm around most nights and weekends.

    I'm not coping very well today with friends that are starving themselves so yes I'd love more friends that actually eat so they can be healthier not just skinnier.

    Have a look at my diary. I burn 1000 calories per day on the weekends so that I can eat (and drink--love wine). Feel free to add me.

    I am 33, I stopped smoking 4 months ago, then stopped taking the drug Seroquel about 6 weeks ago. Over the course of treatment, I gained 25 pounds. I NEVER felt my hunger was satisfied. It was a confusing, miserable experience. I still feel my cravings haven't stabilized, so weight loss feels virtually impossible right now. I eat good foods, but it's still difficult to feel satisfied. My metabolism seems just shot!

    Three words: I. Love. Food. 1300 cals a day? Did not work for me. I've upped them to 1600 but I still don't feel like it's enough some days. Feel free to add me! My favorite thing to say to friends who think losing weight is about starving yourself is "I'm not on a diet, I'm just making healthier choices" :)

    Me. My name is MinMin97 and....I love to eat.
    I am eating at maintenance, and will be making a few adjustments this week, to do another round of weight (fat) loss.
    I also LOVE to lift weights.
