UGH. Can't stop eating!

a lot of times people eat cause they're bored, stress eaters or eat when they should be drinking. While today was not the best example, if I'm looking at the fridge but not hungry I'll either have a glass of water, go on a walk or do something I've been putting off just to get over the "craving." Also, load up on fiber. I'm not one for fruits and veggies, so I take FiberOne and mix it into yogurt, tea, anything. hope this helps!

If you're under your calorie goal, you should be fine. If you gain a little, it's okay, really it is. You'll get there. Weigh yourself tomorrow just before breakfast and after you've used the bathroom, I've heard from others that it's the best time to do a weigh-in. Maybe your body has just been craving more food since you're working out? I don't know but just rest and drink water or you could go for a walk.

Whatever will be, will be. :flowerforyou:

Weigh in next Tuesday when you're back to normal eating. You won't like this Tuesday and it doesn't matter what it says this Tuesday.

Don't cleanse. That's just silly. False weight loss. I can make you lose pounds in hours cleansing.

Yeah just drink that in the morning when you get up-- just the lemon and the water. Then eat like you normally would on a diet- healthier than normal. Its not a fast- its a cleanse.

It's not okay. Ever since I started working out in October, I've gained 10 pounds. I'm sick of it. I'm sick of this body. UGH

Then something isn't right. If you are sure you've been at a calorie deficit then it might be something outside of that medically. Don't freak, could be, and probably would be, something that could be addressed.

Okay, forgive me if I am wrong....and please don't take this the wrong way....but I thought about you and your post A LOT last night and this morning. For some reason....it didn't quite sit well with me.
I see according to your profile you are 18 years old...and I saw your pictures...you are a beautiful girl and do not look overweight AT ALL in your pictures.
I think what concerned me most from your posts is your reference to yourself....you seem to be lacking some confidence in yourself....and some self-esteem. I saw that you mentioned on your profile that you have been to 8 years of Fat Camp? And now you mention a trainer and a nutritionist? Honey, it sounds like you know the right answers to the questions you are asking. You said that your trainer and nutritionist said you aren't eating enough....well, there is your answer right there!

I don't speak for everyone here, but I know that most of us are just your normal, everyday people looking to eat healthier and have a better lifestyle that includes exercise and nutrition. We aren't here for a quick fix, but for a lifestyle change. Our weight goes up and it goes down....because as we get healthier and exercise we are replacing fat with muscle. But, the overall trend is down when you are sticking with a proper nutritous diet and exercise plan and stay within our claorie goals. It's all about the math....but, there are definite fluctuations when dealing with the human body! That is where measuring inches can really come in handy! My first few weeks I lost only a few pounds, but lost inches on my body. That kept me motivated. The weight came later. But, it did come off....it just took time.

I've always been a "fat" kid....and I went through the self-hate because I wasn't skinny like my friends or like my younger sister. But,as I have grown, I have realized that I have other things to offer. Now, my weight loss isn't about being the skinniest, most beautiful girl in town....more about being healthy so that I can DO everything I want to do! Life is too short to spend it focused on weight! And it is too short to spend it over-weight and unhealthy so that you can't enjoy your life. I want to be healthier so that I can continue to do what I love! What is it that you love to do? What are your reasons for wanting to drop more weight?

Here are a few ideas and suggestions:
1) Follow what your trainer and nutrionist tell you. If you are not eating enough then that is most likely why you are gaining weight....your body is in self-preservation mode....trying to store every little calorie to keep you from dying!
2) Try to view food as energy and fuel for your body. Not as an enemy that must be destroyed.
3) Don't look for quick fixes or fast ways to drop punds over-night. They really won't do you any good in the long run.
4) Be sure to eat 1200 calories minimum every day!!! This is so important to keep your body and it's organs functioning.
5) Exercise, but don't over do it. Make sure that if you are going to exercise that your have "Fueled" your body in order to do so. Both before your workout and afterwards. If you eat 1200 calories in the day and then burned 1000 of them exercising...you are going to need to eat some of them back so that your muscles can grow and develop. And that is important because your muscle function will help speed up your metabolism which will help you burn more calories! See how that cycle works! But, if you don't eat and fuel your muscles...well then your body uses your muscles for fuel and then there goes the calorie burn and then you are in worse shape than when you started.

I'm not an expert....but I have been where I think you are....and I wish you all the best! If you have any other questions or you need help with something then feel free to message me. But, I think you have people in place, right there with you, who can give you the best advice. It's up to you on if you want to listen and follow what they have to say.
Good luck in your journey!
