I know exactly how you feel. 60 pounds down, wearing smalls and mediums.... and i see myself in the mirror and just want to sit down and cry. Maybe it's like how you don't notice yourself grow up. You see yourself every day, so it's like nothing has changed, because it's little by little.

800 is perfectly fine-- trust your Doctor and make sure you spend those calories on healthy choices so you get your nutrition for the day. Your body stores fat to use to supplement times when you don't consume the amount your body needs to function. Eating at 1200 works for some people when they need to eat 1800 because it…

^What about fasting on vitamins, minerals, supplements and lots and lots of water? There wouldn't be those illnesses.

Did you even read that article? They used that man as an extreme example. Then he talks about alternate day fasting and other ways to do it and be healthy, and other benefits besides weight loss. It's a good read, I promise. But hey, if you're hungry and want that banana then by all means! (:

I fasted for only a week back in September and haven't put on any of that weight again. Absolutely none of it.

bump!

BUMP!

Bump!

It's interesting that you're more motivated... how does your wife feel about your body's changes? Is she giving you more attention too?

It just doesn't work for me...

buuuump

How much sugar do you recommend I intake? My goal is 25g and I never reach that... I always am around 50g, even without sweets-- because of fruit. I don't know what it ~should~ be, though, since my sugar limit was manually entered.

Bump.

I'm sorry, I thought it was public. Fixed.

Actually they eat quite a bit. It's mostly the time devotion to physical exercise.

YOLO. YOLO YOLO YOLO, YOLO YOLO. Pulling an all nighter, YOLO!!! Eating an entire pan of brownies, YOLO! Punched my math teacher in the face, YOLO! Bought an iced coffee!! YOLO!!!!!! Facebook all day!!! YOOOOLLLOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Watching Boston/Washington right now on the tube. (:

Augh these look amazing

Ugh must try

The bread looks interesting!

Thank you! Yeah, I know it will be. D: Right now I get home from school at 5pm, and with homework it's hard to work out even now... but I'm going to try and do more. I love walking, and every day I do push ups and jumping jacks, but it's not much!

Thank you! It's really frustrating... but that's why the support on this website is so fantastic. :) I hope I can meet some people who are in a similar position or have similar stats to me, that'll really help keep me on track!

I've dealt with binge eating my whole life. Even when I was a little kid, I had no food meter. I ate as much as I could until it hurt because it tasted good and I went from chubby toddler to fat child to obese pre-teen-- and then I started calorie counting/restricting, and in the last few years with symptoms of anorexia…

I've set my profile to Sedentary, so I'm not sure whether I -should- be adding all the little details like that or not. I usually only care if I've accidentally gone over though and try to justify it, to be honest...haha.

Thank you, this is exactly what I'm going through (dancer situation)
