It must be close to 500 calories I'd imagine. Log something similar.

But how did you gain weight in the first place if you're struggling to eat now?? I don't mean to be rude, but it's baffling. I've eaten <500 calories in the past, for months on end. I always managed to lose weight (of course I definitely do not recommend that, but just saying, you're probably eating more than you think you…

For me, the temptation to binge isn't something that just happens for a day or even two days. It builds up over a week, sometimes weeks. I can't sleep at night thinking about it, then I can't take it anymore and I binge. It's difficult to distract yourself for days, or weeks on end. I know I should exercise so I can eat…

I suffer from binge eating too. I thought I had got over it as I'd stopped for a year and a half, but it seems to have come back in full force over the last half a year - just as I was within a few pounds of my ultimate goal weight! I binge when I feel hungry and also when I feel fat and think what's the point, I'm fat…

I'm currently at 1300 calories, my maintenance it just over 1400, so I don't have much choice but to eat 1300 if I want to lose weight. I did 1200 for around a year and I got used to it I guess. At 1300, I don't have lunch. I have a small snack instead, usually a piece of fruit/some crackers/a rice cake/carrots and…

Best to keep it to yourself because it can be terribly annoying. I have to really bite my tongue when others talk about some miracle cleanse, or fruit diet or soup diet that someone they know has done and lost lots of weight with. Sometimes I can't help myself and say what I think, but 9 times out of 10, it falls on deaf…

I'm probably one the few people that have never had an account. Never liked the idea of people spying on me and what I do, not interested in following others either. All the people I care about, I see on a regular basis, with Facebook I'd most likely be adding people that I knew years ago or people that I would barely…

It works for a lot of people, but not me. I eat so much on cheat days (2500-3500 calories or so), I just get myself ill. I definitely couldn't have one once a week - I know it would only lead to weight gain. I only tend to allow myself a cheat day once every 4 months or so. I've gone 9 months without one and didn't really…

About 500 steps! :neutral: I don't track much but generally I walk very little. I work from home, doesn't help.

Being John Malkovich. I liked it, bit weird, but I don't mind weird.

1300 calories to lose, which is what I'm currently eating. Maintenance is around 1400-1500.

I'm in the same boat. Have about 10 lbs to lose and it's really slow going. But I am just sticking to what I'm doing, am aiming to get to my goal weight by the beginning of August, but if I haven't quite hit it by then, that's okay too. I'd rather take my time than try drastic measures.

I agree. Diets do not work. I did so many over the years; I started out in at a normal weight, with around 7 lbs to lose, but over years of dieting, then binge eating, then back to dieting, I ended up gaining weight and becoming obese. I now realise that if I want to remain slim, I will have to always be mindful of what I…

I wish I could motivate myself to be more active and eat more. I lost most of my weight on 1200 calories. Now losing the last few pounds very slowly on 1300 calories. I tend to join the gym for a month and then give up once the month is up. I just can't stick to it. Eating less is just easier, I hope someday I could make…

I have a naturally slim sister. She's always been very small and yet she's always eating fried food, has takeouts almost daily, and has chocolate, crisps daily, can eat a packet of biscuits in one sitting. She does have three little girls, so perhaps running around after them keeps her fit, but even when we were young, she…

Not much shocks me nowadays, all the food I usually eat, I know approximately how many calories they have. But, I tried to eat a whole baguette today for dinner, well, I weighed it out and realised it was over 600 calories for just the bread, without any of the fillings. So disappointing. To be fair, half of it filled me…

So many things. But I don't really miss eating like that, so mindlessly.

I lost close to 60 lbs without any exercise. It's taken quite a while, but I didn't mind the slow weight loss. I think I must have done about a month of the 30-day shred, other than that I didn't do much. I'm a student and I work, I don't drive so often spend hours on public transport (it takes me 4 hours to get to work…

I am, but sadly don't eat desi food.

The Bourne Ultimatum

Veronika decides to die

I don't even know what it is. I think I'm the only person who always refuses food from others, maybe I come across as rude, but I hate when people suggest I have something they've brought in. It's a habit now. Only water is acceptable, sometimes tea or coffee.

I'm reading the novel at the moment. It's just heartbreaking. Glad to hear the film is good too. The last film watched was The Bourne Identity - pretty decent.

I'm currently a UK size 8, been the same since last May - although have been unsuccessfully trying to lose a bit more weight. I have kept all my old clothes and will hold onto them for a while yet. I've lost weight many times before and regained it all back, with extras. The last time I lost a lot of weight and got down to…

The light between oceans

Took me over a year, eating around 1200 calories, without exercise.

I had 8g of Meridian crunchy peanut butter this morning. Sooo delicious, but sadly not anywhere near the amount I wanted to wolf down. Given the chance, I could eat the whole jar in a sitting :disappointed: I've tried PB2, hated it. It's just processed crap, doesn't taste anything like real peanut butter and not healthy at…

A few people have told me that, despite still having weight to lose. I'm in the normal weight category, definitely not skinny, so I take it as a compliment. Especially as I used to comments about how fat I was from a lot of the same people before I lost the weight.

The ones I remember: Edward Scissorhands The neverending story The goonies Flash Gordon Bill and Ted's bogus journey Beetlejuice Jurassic Park Home alone Death becomes her The shining The witches Gremlins Last action hero Child's play

I do plan to have them, they keep me going, but they are dangerous for me. Once I have one, I'm usually very tempted to have another and then another. I find the next week or two after a cheat day is the most difficult for me as I'll often feel like another one, especially as I get super hungry after them. I am planning on…
