You can splurge and still loose weight

I'm not going to lie. I go over my calorie limit at least once a week although i doubt even when i splurge i go past my maintainance calorie limit. I count calories but i don't add every little 20 cal here 40 calorie there which in a days time would probably equal less then 200 calories if i bothered among all the other things i do count. What does splurging mean? It means typically on a Friday night that i'm going to consume a 6 pack of Bud Light or a mixture of Bud Light with some Crown Royal n 7s. In the process i'm going to eat junk of some sort and i don't even bother counting. The next day i return to my daily calorie plan.

Truth be told is that you don't have to give up a damn thing when your on a weight loss plan as its all about discipline and the amount of calories you put in your mouth. I personally am 6 days a week under my calorie goal by 2-300 cals. That puts me over 1000 calories under my daily maintainance calorie intake that would be roughly 2700-2800 calories per day on a 2lbs a week weight loss plan.

I think thats something important that fellow weight losers need to consider in that you really don't have to give up anything you love. You just have to be more moderate at consuming what you love. I'll have supreme pizza tonight you know the fat kind at about 400 calories a slice. But i'll only have 1 slice and probably a side spinach salad that i could eat to i puke at under 100 calories lol. I've lost 32 lbs since i started in January. I don't exercise intentionally although i do get plenty of bending , climbing, lifting , walking in my job. I've got about 30 to go as my goal is 185-190 which i hope to reach by June-July

You know losing weight is akin to somebody wanting to give up smoking. It's never EVER going to happen until you decide its REALLY what you want. Good luck to you all.
