Don't deprive yourself! Once in a while won't hurt! I used to love getting the spicy chicken sandwich, with cheese and fries! Now I get the Chargrilled sandwich, and a fruit cup (sometimes I skip the fruit if I want to save a .66 cents.) :P I always ask for two packets of Texas Pete sauce and pour it onto the bun. I don't…

Height? 5' 6" Starting weight? Joined MFP January of this year - 252 Lbs Current weight? ~177.5 Goal Weight? I'd like to move out of the obese BMI category - thinking I should reset my goal to 170. Age? 29 How many calories you eat a day? 1200 - 1800 (non-holiday season 1200-1300)

I've been on 1200 calories since March. September and October I went over 400-700 cals, and I'm still loosing (struggled mostly to meetings, parties and Halloween). Right now, I'm trying to stay between 1200-1400 calories. I eat a variety of food, I don't deprive myself. I try to lighten and modify my food. I like to keep…

South Texas - Rio Grande Valley! :D

Only if they insist on knowing .... I really don't like talking openly about it. :-s

I have bad days ... having them more frequently now that the holidays are nearing but like some of the posters said, healthier food makes me feel better -- energy level is up, drag less, run faster. Bad days -- even if I stay under the goal, I feel like crap. Everyone is different -- what ever works for them, it's their…

Avoid cheeses...they usually overload on cheese -- if you have to have it, ask if you could have it on the side (if possible for the dish you order) Avoid chips and tortillas -- if you HAVE to have tortillas opt for corn instead of flour. Tostadas/Chalupas are a great option Grilled chicken Chicken fajitas Some sort of…

For those who may not have a fancy phone like me... walkjogrun.net is awesome!

Congratulations! You look AWESOME! :)

I usually say I've already eaten breakfast and I'm stuffed or if I am feeling obligated or tempted I eat half or quarter portion and discretely throw the rest. This morning was one of those for me, I was "stuffed" and greasy kolache was not worth it.

When I was a size 22/24 I didn't feel fat, I was aware, I felt normal and accepted it. Now at size 12/14 I'm feeling the "fat girl" mentality and still manage to end up in the Plus dept. Starting a whole new journey of acceptance...

After dinner settles around 8pm if I'm running outside, 9pm if I go to gym.

Forgive me MFP for I have sinned, My calorie deficit is becoming smaller and smaller, and I'm snacking on not-so-healthy foods. :-[ Stress is making me want to go back to old habits. :\

Some days, if I'm craving a not so healthy food.

Rio Grande Valley :)

Ditto, there have been times after work when I don't wash my face and go to the gym. Then I regret it, because my face gets irritated. :( I could care less if people are wearing make up or not, but deodorant is a must. Also in a crowded gym, watch your breath. I hate it when I work out next to someone with bad breath. :-|

Congratulations on all your hard work! I recently entered ONEderland, so I know the feeling.. :) :)

I never thought I'd read an entire thread about poop. LOL!

I like to workout most of the time. There are days when I'm not in the mood or my body is sluggish. But I feel so much better afterwards,as long as I change my routine and I don't get bored. Helps me with stress. :)

I wouldn't count it. But if you really want to know, invest in a heart rate monitor. It will come in handy for any physical activity you want to measure.

Yup, that was me today! Party at work, amazing food = way WAY over my calories. I just ate 2 days worth of calories. X_X I haven't been this bad in over a month....so I'll be ok! There are days when I'm like that and I'll munch on carrots or a few low calorie crackers.
