I definitely wish I could stop. I actually did stop for the past 3 days, but had so much anxiety about it that I logged back in this morning. Hopefully soon, I can learn to let go and just keep doing the healthy habits that I have picked up over the past year and a half. Until then, I'm with ya! Good luck!

Love this! Congratulations on your success and thanks for sharing!

Really awesome story! Congratulations!!

I'm 5'2". I went from 159 to 130 in the past year. I have taken it really slow and steady mostly because I don't stick to everything I should- I reaallly like beer and tequila! hahaha! Mostly I net between 1250-1500 and try to do some sort of total body workout. The 30 day shred is amazing. Good luck with everything!!

Thank you so much for this post! It is exactly what I needed to read today. The one thing that really stuck out to me is the phrase at the end "... If you aren't happy, you aren't healthy"---gah! That's the hardest thing isn't it..I am just like you were. Thinking that if I just get a little smaller, a little leaner, a…

This is perfect for me. I think I am going to email this to myself and read it every day. I completely understand about just wanting to be on the couch, sleeping, and being alone.

Completely agree with this!! Beating yourself up and starving yourself will only lead to another binge. I understand what you are going through and it is so hard to move on from a binge especially when you have been doing well and worked hard. My favorite quote is from Ralph Waldo Emerson. It really holds true for those of…

The servings sizes are set by the FDA. For each category of food item, there is a RACC (recommended amount customarily consumed). The food companies are not evil. The serving sizes have not changed in a long time, but our portion sizes in America have gotten a lot bigger.

I went to 2 OA meetings per week for over a year. Just being in the setting of people who did not want to eat compulsively was a great support in itself.

I will be increasing my cals by about 200 per day in order to net the required amount. Good advice about the scale..would rather worry about inches and toning but it's so hard to not be focused on that stupid number.

Thanks for responding! Should I prepare myself for any weight gain?

How do you do that on the FT7? I just recently bought one as well and haven't figured everything out yet. Thanks!
