Also, if your diary was open it would be helpful in giving an opinion, but most likely water retention.

Don't listen to ED at all! Don't worry about if you will gain suddenly. You won't. Just nourish your body. It wasn't junk food, it was all good stuff. Peanut butter sammiches are the best! :) Also, are you supposed to be counting calories in recovery? Trust me, it will be OK! :) *former ana/mia/emo eater

THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

I TOTALLY get this NSV!!!! Amazing job!!! (Former gross binge eater as well.)
-
YES!!!!!!!!! I had 2 last Saturday and still lost .7 this week!!!
-
Awesome NSVs everyone!!!
-
Great NSVs!!!!!
-
only 600 ish calories over for the day but still on track for a 1/2 lb loss for the week so not bad. :)

We saw you! I did a River Song costume from The Big Bang episode a few years ago, but I don't think it will fit this year for Dragon*Con. :( I have an Osgood costume from the 50th that I LOVE because it is fun AND comfy. (my new criteria for costumes, comfy AND fun.)

FREE Donuts are the worst! lol. Sometimes I split one with a coworker, but if I don't want to give up the calories I refrain. OR...I go over which accomplishes nothing.

What has worked for me: Eating less, making better choices, moving more. It really can be that simple. I still eat junk food on occasion, I don't cut carbs, and I DO eat packaged foods sometimes. BUT I try to make my snacks all fruits/veggies because the snacking is what kills my mojo. Check out my diary from this past…

What I've done the couple of times I've had to travel since joining MFP is set my intake to maintenance during the weeks I'm out of town. This way I know that I'm not actually OVEREATING, just not eating at a deficit. AND if there is activity be sure to log it. Enjoy your vacation!!

This times 2!!!

Does MFP take breast feeding into account? Because I know you burn a lot of calories breast feeding so it could actually put you in a place where you aren't eating enough and therefore stalling your weight loss. (I know it sounds backwards but it is an actual thing that happens.)
-
Woot! Congrats!
-
Just work it into your calories and you'll be fine. :)
-
Since it is always at my house I can control most of what is offered. BUT I still plan on having a burger, chili dog(s) and s'mores! All in moderations, with hopefully outdoor activities to balance it out.
-
It depends on your willingness to keep it to 1 day or 1 meal. I've been doing this since September and had to train myself to keep from making it an all weekend thing. Look at my diary from last week. Great all week, over on Sunday and still DOWN this week. (Sunday I went over more than I intended. But it does keep me from…

I actually save some calories just for this reason. I've made a habit of saving 200-250 calories for after dinner snacks, because I WILL eat at night. My progress hasn't stalled because of it.
-
Hey, if you can do it without getting cranky then go for it. Why can't I skip breakfast? Because I get hungry/spacey/mean if I do. lol.
-
bump to try later. Thank you!!! Finally a "low-cal" dessert without artificial sweeteners!

1. Hopefully your artist will place it where it won't fade, as foot tattoos too close to the bottom of your feet will fade because the skin there replenishes quickly. 2. It depends on your shoes. If you have something open on the sides where it won't aggravate your tattoo it should be fine. :)

This. I'm an ex-binge eater as well. Also ex-ana/mia. The only thing that helped is prayer and therapy. AND accountability. I started telling my husband EVERY time I would go on an emotional binge and tell him the triggers. It seemed to help. I'm happy to say I've only had 1 slip up in a year. But it took a LOT of prayer.

I'm very very late to the conversation, but I've been testing going by the "weekly" goal this week. I've been VERY good at never netting below 1200 by eating most of my exercise calories back. Problem is...WEEKENDS I tend to go over. This week I've been "saving" up my exercise calories to see if it will help me not go over…
-
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! I've seen that restaurant. I actually like the one in Turkey Creek better. The Thalis Dinners are always a good option because you can try several things and see what you like. Tandoori chicken is a like a cross between roasted and grilled chicken on the bone and is very good. Flavorfull but not too…
-
I'll look at the menu and get back to ya. I LOVE Indian food. :)
-
I've found that when I add more veggies and fruits that are very low cal I tend to stay full longer because I get to EAT MORE! lol. My snacks for today for example - an apricot, a mini cucumber, and baby carrots for under 70 calories total and it is 2+ cups of food. Protein and fiber are important for feeling full as well.…
-
NOT THIS!!! If you are able to cook most meals for everyone that is the best place to start. Also, maybe take walks as a family? My hubby is a SUPER picky eater so I had to be creative, but I never tricked him. He always knows when I'm hiding veggies in dinner. We started by taking walks together and getting froyo. Now we…

as someone who has a ****y resting face I get this.

HAHAHA! I figured out what it is. I've been wearing my hubbys old rock tee shirts. Apparently the old ladies in my town don't like his In Utero T-Shirt. lololol. I got several dirty looks AGAIN last night while wearing it.
