I took a peek at your diary, and you're above 1200 almost every single day?? Also, I don't see the "tons of veggies" you are referring to. Btw, your diary isn't up to date either. :)

I was on it a few years back, and I lost 40 pounds! But, it made me foggy-brained, soda tasted awful, and my hair started falling out!! I also got the tingling in my hands. I hated it.

I use a Polar FT4 and I LOVE it. It is extremely accurate and I never have a problem with it.

MFP is extremely generous with their exercise calories. I use an HRM now to be more accurate.
-
^^ I do the same thing!

If you're pair shaped, I can understand how you might be a size 16 still. Your hips and bottom are probably the last areas to lose the fat. Keep going! When I was 155 pounds WITHOUT hips and butt (my butt is flat and I have no hips), I was wearing size 12, so that's why I think size 16 doesn't sound abnormal at all. I have…

I don't believe there is any safe and healthy way to lose 2 pounds a week at your size. I am 5'0" and 128.8 pounds, and I am losing .5 pounds a week, sometimes 1 whole pound (yippee). You and I are just lucky (ha) to be small people that will not lose a lot at once. Btw, I also work out 6 days a week. I eat 1400-1500…

These are all such great ideas. Thanks for the responses!! :drinker:
-
Thanks, everyone. I will try some of these tips. I just have to force myself to get it down. Now if it were beer, I'd totally be able to get all my glasses in! lol
-
Yes, I am fully aware of the mechanics of drinking water. Now, your tip about setting a timer was a tip I could use.
-
If your calorie burns are accurate and you are weighing and logging your food calories accurately, you will lose weight even if you eat back your exercise calories.

I buy the Jif whipped peanut butter and use only 1 T. That's only 70 calories! :)

Listen to Josh! He is a smart man!

Being only 5 feet tall, I'd like to be at 128 at the most. For some reason, BMI means a lot to me. lol. I've been doing the TDEE for a week, I believe.
-
Yes. I am extremely anal retentive when it comes to accuracy. I weigh, measure everything.
-
You know, I really don't. I'm guessing 300 calories because it's 45 min of cardio, and 15 minutes of strengthening.
-
But, she said her measurements aren't changing as well...
-
Yes, you need to be eating much more than this. I am 5'0" and weigh 135 lbs. I eat much more than that!

I was struggling with a plateau, and I finally decided to eat my calories back. It made me nervous, since I didn't want to screw anything up, but doing what I had been doing before (only eating 1200) wasn't working. I had been on a plateau for 2 months! I ate back ALL of my exercise calories this week, and I dropped weight…
-
This is me too. Graphs are my buddies! Lol
-
Then, why does your profile pic say "Dieting Sucks"? What you're saying is the complete opposite.
-
I know, right?! MY peanut butter is calorie-free! HAHA. Oh, I wish!
-
I needed to read that! I'm also on a plateau, and it's driving me crazy! This article helped me a lot. Thank you!
