    That I had to eat when I felt even just a little hungry, or I'd get dizzy and fatigued...

    I wish that I could give up all the diet sodas and drink more water.... I need to cut them out so that I can get rid of some of this sodium and water retention. I even tried drinking one water to every soda... That lasted one whole DAY. Is it still as beneficial to drink water with MIO or another sugar free flavor added?

    I add MIO to my water. It's the only way I'll drink water. I need the damned stuff to taste like something.
    There's debate whether the artifical sweeteners will kill you, even in small amounts, but it's better than drinking sodas.

    That if I "broke" my diet with something "naughty" then the day was a write off and I could just eat what I wanted and get back on it the next day.

    So many misconceptions in one sentence!

    THIS!

    Actually if you don't go completely insane, or do it every day, doing that probably won't hurt your diet much.

    Cardio was the only way to lose weight.

    I thought that too.
    And it was funny because at one time I was doing great.. but I realized that in between cardio classes at the gym I was using some of the weight machines to kill time. It took awhile to figure out why I wasn't getting fit just walking 3 miles a day. :smile:

    That if I ate barely anything during the day and nothing remotely fatty/sugary/'bad' and did some tough excersize that I'd "done really well today!"

    No you silly girl. Go and do some research, you've grown up with big misconceptions about good health!!
