  • Sweets in general but mostly chocolate and ice cream. It has been easier lately with the lower-calorie ice creams that are available (i.e. Halo top). But every time I go to a movie, I can not resist getting chocolate to munch on.

  • I replied before that my goal was to hit the 150s. I just met that goal this past week! Next I'm looking forward to hitting a "normal" BMI (I will cross that threshold at 154.8 lbs). Just 5 lbs until then! Hoping to hit that goal in the next month or so! :)

  • What is your calorie limit? Do you exercise? Are you eating back your exercise calories if so? Also what kinds of foods are you eating? Some high-calorie foods are infamous for not being filling (i.e. chips, sweets, etc).

  • I recommend eating eggs in the morning if you can! They aren't too high in calories and keep you filled for a good amount of the day. I also tend to eat less during the day, but eggs saved me from being starved all the time. For lunch I'll do a salad (you can get salad kits for 250-350 cals) or grab a Clif bar (not super…
