in Introduce Yourself
So, can you really eat things such as, donuts lol... in moderation as long as it fits into your daily calorie goal?? Now its not often, maybe once every 2 months or so, i induldge in a donut, like today, and i'm under my calorie goal still, so this is ok right? I'm feeling extreme guilt as you can see! I've also been hovering at the same weight now for the past 2 and a half weeks! and it's driving me crazy and making me more self concious about what exactly i'm eating.

    yes you can

    if you are not losing weight then you are probably not eating at a deficit, however its hard to pinpoint the reason without more information. If you would like help figuring it out make a post on the "diet and weightloss help board", make your diary public, and include stats such as you height, weight, age, goal weight, current calorie goal and selected rate of loss, and any recent changes in your routine

    typically weight loss stalls come back to inaccurate logging:
