  • Well I try to surf the urge rather than going under. Next time you get the urge, tell yourself you need to ride it like a wave. :)
    in Why do i ruin it Comment by xbrains October 2016
  • I honestly just Google Image Search 1 ounce or 6 ounces or whatever to find out how much of something I ate. If it looks like how much I ate then I pick that. It seems accurate to eyeball it and log that guesstimate because I've lost weight that way when not drinking all my calories before.

  • Mine is 1700. I stay under but not losing too fast. I think MFP thought my exercise was more exerting but for now it's just some decent sized walks.

  • Well, you don't have to eat out. You could cook a steak in your hotel room. Lol. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMbD7Qjm2uM I try to choose "healthy" food for take out from a restaurant or buy sandwiches when I'm in the "Food tastes better when someone else makes it" zone.

    in Need friends for motivation. Comment by xbrains April 2016
  • This is true! The first taste of something sweet or a good pizza is gonna signal the reward system in your head, but it's gonna dull down really quick. You really don't need to eat an entire pizza. Or, I keep telling myself that. ;D

  • Yes! It's easy to say "Oh, I can just eat less food if I'm gonna drink today." Nope. Doesn't work for me. Lol. 6 drinks easily turns into more and/or food cravings. Plus, drinking is so addictive, it's easier to just cut that out of your life if you have it in you while you're trying to lose weight. I lost 22 pounds in…
