Yes. Overestimate calories in, underestimate calories out. Easy peasy.

I'm also having trouble with finishing/eating average portions of most meals, and getting full (too?) quickly. It's a new phenomenon for me and I'm getting a little frustrated. I might start having six smaller meals.

Hi! Based on your outlook and post, I already know you CAN do this. You clearly understand what needs to change in your life and that's awesome :) id love to be friends with you on this journey!

Friend me if you'd like! I'm also battling mental illness (anxiety disorder) while re-losing weight :)

My partner got me a beautiful ring... That I was only able to wear for a few months before it became noticeable too small. I'm determined to fit into that again :)

I want to get back where i was running-wise. Waiting on a doctors appointment to see whats going on with my knee... :(

900 calories a day, plus working out 30 minutes a day, isnt safe or sustainable! i wish you all the best but please make sure youre eating calories to at least hit your BMR!

smaller plates if possible is a huge help. small snack (fruit, light yogurt, egg etc) for breakfast & small snack for dinner if necessary. Also continue to save up your calories throughout the week- even an extra 100 cal per day can make a huge difference. also exercise ;)

Congrats on your transformation OP!

add me :) I also describe my height as a hobbit, and started with C25K and then 30DS. Down 45 pounds with more to go. I loev walking dead, game of thrones, firefly, and doctor who (I even have a doctor who tattoo) :)

i find that eating no sugar added pickles satisfies my need to chew something...

Im also looking for motivation. Ive lost over 40 pounds since the spring, but this week has become very difficult! Good luck!

thats awesome- reminds me of my own story! keep on keepin on, and congrats on the running achievements too :)

lmfao

escargot, grapefruit, oysters... blech xP

When I got my septum pierced, the piercer looked at me and gave me the smaller gauge because "I have small features". Nicest words I'd ever heard... :)

Hi! I'm 5'3" and started off 180, now im 133. Down 45 pounds since February, still with about 20 pounds to lose :) feel free to friend request me :)

PREACH. Thank you for saying what I was feeling. Also I feel like your my food twin...

...... so you mean its NOT working then? If the scale hasn't budged, obviously you DO need to change something else besides your meals. Cutting out snacking is not your way to success, because that hasn't been enough. It's CICO, no way around it. Being short isnt a curtain to hide behind.
