Need more friends who eat!

Hey y'all, I've been a member of the group for a while, though I'm pretty quite on the forums due to busyness in my offline world (grad school, work, family, etc). I'm in dire need of friends on here who eat more. I have a few already, and I am MFP friends with a bunch of my real-life friends who don't eat at all, and seem almost... scared? ... of how much I eat and the fact that I still get consistent progress. It's so hard for me to be encouraging and feel encouraged when all I see are diaries with 1200 OR LESS calories a day (I have one friend from college who's doing the HCG diet and her diary makes me cry!). So if you have room for more friends who eat more to weigh less, I'd love to add you :-D

P.S. I would especially love to add some friends doing NROLFW as I will be starting that plan next month after my school quarter ends.

    I do calorie cycling, but on the days I eat I eat a lot. I have a few friends that also starve themselves. They've gotten results, but I've also noticed when everyone pretty much went off their diets over the holidays I gained 3lbs due to not exercising, but my friends all gained 20-40lbs. I'll add you to my friends. :)

    I lost all my weight (36 pounds) and got to goal never really eating below 2,000. I always netted at least 1550-1600, which is above my BMR.

    I am now pregnant, so I get to eat even more and my body is handling all of the adjustments really well. I credit eating more and lifting heavy for how well I was able to transition into pregnancy and plan to lose the weight again with the same plan, just not quite as much weight this time!

    Feel free to FR me. :)

    I eat 1700+ cals/day.
    At the beginning, it felt like a lot but now pfff it's nothing.
    I can't wait to get to maintenance so I can eat 2000+ daily and be fine!!
    Can you tell me enjoy food verrrry much? Lol

    Anyone can add me. I log daily!

    I try to always net over 1700. Feel free to add me-- I know what you mean about having people on your friends list who hardly eat! It's painful to watch! I'd love to have more friends that aren't afraid of food!

    Like the OP, most people I know subscribe to the eat less calories + exercise more regimen. I decided to try this method after a lot of reading. Very simply put: it just makes logical sense!

    So please feel free to add me as well. Being surrounded by like minded individuals will be good for support!

    Hi everyone! Please feel free to add me. Up until this weekend I was eating very low calories as well as exercising without eating back (i know, i know). After loads of research i've seen the error of my ways and today I've ate 1900 calories (tdee calculated at 2300) and am feeling better than I have in ages! I feel so relieved that i don't have to continue struggling through each day on 1000-1200 calories and am looking forward to being able to enjoy my food again. I would like to meet other people who eat loads as well as those who lift heavy. I've previously been lifting low weights with high reps and i'd love to see what exercises everyone does with heavier weights!

    Love. Jenny xx

    I have had great success with EM2WL! Looking forward to even more. The energy level alone is worth it...feeling great and being active is what we are made for! Anyone can add me, I love seeing people succeed and being healthy! :)

    Add me! I eat 2000 a day. :) Seemed like a lot at first but now I love it and feel full of energy. I get so discouraged when I see my friends netting 700 a day. I need more friends who EAT.
  • 29 yrs old (in 2 weeks) 5'5 ...I average 2600 cal a day , but sometimes eat 3000 TO LOSE...that count? lol! Obviously...I am very active in my offline world so I may not reply to EVERY post and update, but do appreciate good eating support and giving it in return. I do still struggle mentally some days with allowing myself to eat as much as I do (coming from a 1200 cal diet), but i'm making it!
