Hi guys n gals my name is Kristy and I have made my NYE Resolution to loose weight and get fit.
I'm loving all the gym work and my PT is amazing, I love the way I feel after a workout.

My problem is...and it's a big deal for me, is trying to eat my calories per day.
I'm not an eater, I only eat once a day so having to eat 3 times a day plus snacks is killing me lol.
I've taken a liking to Oats so I will start them for brekkey daily but then only a few hours later its time for more food,
And the struggle begins....

All over I'm having the best time, finding strength and muscles I didn't know excited is a pretty good feeling.

Anyone else out there having the same issues as me? I would love to hear from you :wink:

Anyways, stay strong and motivated and let's come out of this fit healthy and living longer :love:

Kristy xx

    It's called developing habits. It takes time, but after you do it a while it will become old hat.

    Add me if you like honest upfront support. I will be glad to help yopu.

    I ALWAYS recommend reading Forks Over Knives to newbiew, lol

    Hi there!

    I've had the same issues-- not eating once a day, but being drastically under-calories which can put your body into starvation mode. Try eating more nutritious calorie-dense foods when you /do/ eat, even if it's not the "right" number of meals you're supposed to have a day.
    Honestly, poedunk65 is right; it really is about developing it into a habit. :)
