Thanks for all your help girls, i do appreciate you all taking the time to speak to me. I'm gonna clean up my loggings and try to make my target more often. My scale is as good as bought. I'm not really dieting i've no intention of changing the way i eat now. I've really just made a lifestyle change and i've yet to perfect…

Ok let me just clear the air a little. I haven't been eating take away meals daily but i have been on the road a few times and needed to pick up a meal quickly. I do belive in CICO. On the days i did have fast food i ate less so as not to go over my calories. A meal like that simply meant for me that i had fewer calories…

What is CICO?

I'm pretty sure an off day shouldn't offset an entire month of work.

Well when i say gaining its not a ton of weight it's more like 2 ponds more than the day before and stuff like that. I must say i appreciate the help but do some of you have to be so mean about it geez.

I cut bread, cheese, soda and a few other things. I'm an island girl so my stuff is almost always homemade. I'm not used to weighing meals so that's why i don't own a food scale. I eat lots of roots, what we call provision, trying to eat clean.

I'll look into the scale, your right. I have been eyeballing stuff like that.

Well actually i don't, the measurements i inow are sometimes incorrect but i use larger measurements just to be on the safe side. I'd usually rather under eat than overeat.

I lost at in the first few weeks and tried to up my progress by eating less but it clearly back fired. I use measuring cups.

I had a dietitian some time ago who told me that i needed to increase what i ate inorder to lose weight and yeah it sounded crazy at first but it worked like a charm. I did some research and starvation mode is probably not the correct term but it exist. I'm way under my calorie count and it's slowing my metabolism down. So…

I also don't crave anything so i've no desires to binge eat. I'm pretty much made up my mind to kick the weight so it's really just about finding a way to get it done and nothing else.

Read everyones comments thanks for all the info. I don't use condiments i try to keep it simple as much as i can. I do agree though that i am eating way too little. I do think that i've put my body into starvation mode. Its gonna be a challenge but i'm gonna try to consume more and see what happens.

Likes comics ;) ;)

I'm in u can add me ;-)

Trying to get to 130 and I'm currently at 206. I have to incorporate some exercise. I've already changed my diet and I'm also doing the squat challenge but I kniw better can be done so count me in ;-).
