I ate four friggen slices of bread last week on my I need carbs day. And like 300 calories in oatmeal. And rice. Annnnnd it was all delcious and I needed it. Either that or I can be depressed about depriving myself and end up binging. I'ma just eat the damn bread haha!

Rice and veggies with hot sauce 250-300 cal Fibre 1 bar 90-100 cal Sometimes I'll bring overnight oats, instant oats, various fruits or…

I don't think they have it in Canada... I just ate a cup of oreo ice cream though and it was so worth the 280 calories. :blush:

When it's raining I walk around my house at a brisk pace for 30 minutes. I walk everyyyyy day. Works for me I've lost over 30 pounds! Eat less move more, outside or in as long as you're putting in effort!

When my aunt was pregnant my baby cousin ran over to me and asked if I had a baby in my belly too. *cries* So hurtful a childs honestly is... That was about 60 pounds/7 years ago. Still upsets me. Sigh.

I get ravenous on days I don't run. (If I take a rest day) I could take bites out of my walls. Also I find if I eat a heavy meal late at night the next morning I wake up starving and can't get enough to eat. When I cut off my eating earlier in the evening, the next day I won't eat/feel hungry until 1 or 2pm.

If you can't fix it into you calories goal my tips are: Bake your own healthy goodies to eat and bring. You're less likely to want one when your full, so bring snacking foods. I bring atleast 2-3 fruits and a fibre 1 bar to work with me so I can snack when someone brings in treats that I know won't fit in and not feel…

I eat at maintenance or a little over because I can't deal, if I don't eat what I want I just end up binging. I usually take the first two days as rest days from exercise because of pain so I'm extra ravenous on rest days. If i go a couple hundred over maintenance I'll do some extra exercise when I feel better to burn some…

I put a mint tea bag in mine so good!! Or some cocoa powder and cashew milk. Mmm. I drink 3-5 cups coffee/tea a day. Stevia is a better alternative to sweetener, it's more natural. No calories, very acquired taste when I was used to sugar twin.
-
Reduce sugar oatmeal the instant packages, one pak is 110 cal! Cut up and small apple or banana and add it it. Or some powder peanut butter for protein. The powdered stuff I have is like 30 cal for a table spoon! Also laughing cow light cream cheese on crackers mmm.

I don't mind the fat being there I know It's going to go with hard work I just hate the jiggles, it only started about a week or two ago when I started running. I guess I was just used to it being a rock hard lump when I was bigger and now there's more room in there for everything to bouce around haha. :lol: As for spot…

Turkey bacon. Mmm. I like to make breakfast stir fry (lol) Scrambled eggs, chopped turkey bacon, diced potato chunks, and veggies like onion, mushroom, and peppers. Fried in olive oil and sometimes I'll use hot sauce and/or ketchup. You can also stuff this in pita shells or wrap shells. Add some cheese. I usually make…

Extra virgin olive oil. 2 tsps = 80 calories. I cook everything in it, eggs, turkey bacon, veggies, rice. I don't like the texture of raw veggies but I love them boiled/steamed or fried. I eat fried peppers with hot sauce almost everyday. Luckly hot sauce doesn't have many calories because I use a bottle a week. :blush:
-
I eat back half what fit bit gives. Lose 1lb a week!
-
My highest weight was around 210-215lbs and now I'm 160lbs. Ive been finding it tougher the last 4 pounds, it's not falling off like it used to! I get too hangry (hungry angry) if I lower my calories under 1500-1700 so I'm just exercising more and dealing with the slower process. I'm going to lower a bit soon with any…
-
Hide in my room and not go near the peanut butter or chocolate because I will have NO willpower what so ever. :lol: I eat a lot of fruit to keep the sugar cravings at bay.

Smart ones has a microwavable breakfast quesadilla for 230 calories. I think it has 10 or 12 grams of protein, they're good to have in stock of you wake up late and have to jet! The have a few more breakfast products Too, pretty good on calories you could check em out. I usually make an egg, Turkey bacon, and cheese…

Marilyn Manson is bae. :love:

I eat 1600-1700 to lose a pound a week and I'm only a little over 5 feet tall for crying out loud. Weigh your damn food properly is why they're not losing. As if that isn't said 200 times a day on these forums. :lol:
-
You have to weigh even the packages with calories. They're horribly inaccurate. For example my bag of popcorn says 1 package 270 calories for 50 grams. After weighing the bag contained 67 grams. So 1 package was actually 362 calories. Bread and other items premade and prepackaged this happens soon much with! You eat 4…

I knew a girl lost her weight too fast and got gallstones. Big ones. She had to get surgery and it was extremely painful. Plus your muscle loss. You want that to be there when you lose your weight. Easier to maintain than to get back once it's gone. Extreme strain on you're heart and other organs. All the things the…

When I'm hungry I exercise. Then I can eat the exercise calories and not be sad. Got cardio and weights in twice each today! Extra 500 calories to eat. Personally, if I don't have 20+ grams of fibre a day and a LOT of water I feel famished. Maybe try playing with you macros, see what works best for you. :smile: On days…

Thursday I ate almost 3700 lol. I was thinking about dairy queen all week and said frig it. Treat myself. Extra exercise for me this week yayyyyy!! It happens sometimes. As long as it's just a day and doesn't trigger you to completely derail. Just get back on the horse!
-
I started knitting to keep busy before bed so I wouldn't want all the foods. That was usually when I'd binge. Also I cook, weigh, and measure everything I'll eat for the day and log it soon as I wake up or before I go to bed the night before. That way I know only to eat the food I have put in place for myself and not…

My favorite is: Help gained 5 pounds!! I was 160 yesterday and today I'm 165 and I'm on my period and I'm so bloated!!1! Well. YA DON'T SAY. GO ONNNN. Gee whiz I really thought that extra water retention would make you drop 5 pounds. :blush: Wait a week and try weighing again. If it doesn't go down, adjust calories and…

My go to is brown rice, ragu pasta sauce, and any veggies I have on hand diced and cooked in a wok pan with some olive oil. Usually corn, carrots, onion, bell peppers, mushrooms... Then I'll use ground chicken, Turkey, or extra lean ground beef as the protein. Salt, pepper, basil and oregano. Weigh and split into about 6…
