Thank you I find this very helpful!

I currently stopped with the coffee it was raising my blood pressure too high and I take Vitamin b-12 every day. Feel free to look at my diary to see if there are any changes I can make.

I exercise between 30 mins and 1 hour every day between 3am and 4 am.

Sorry about that. I just updated my profile so you should be able to see my diary now. I'm over my protein every day now. I just changed my intake about 2 weeks ago.

I had pineapple chunks! It was only way i could survive not eating the doughnuts in the office.

Its because people are LAZY! Losing weight is Hard work. No one wants to put the effort in. They complain about being over weight and do nothing about it. There loss :) ( <- well actually its there gain haha)

well I guess we will have to see. I will start monday and do a daily weight and see if I gain, lose or stay the same. I will continue to do my daily workout and base changes off of my progress from this week.

Very serious! I'm going to try and prove the theory that the brain burns more calories.

Ha! Fixed it. Now i don't look completely retarded. Anyway what do you guys think? Do you think I will lose more weight the week I work out and do mentally stimulating activities?

DAMN! I thought it was beastie boys! ANY way to edit post? :sad:

I don't eat my work out calories. I just eat between 1000 -1200 every day.

@kylesmommy89 You burned 3158 calories last week from exercise. If you were not doing this level of activity you would be able to maintain your weight by only consuming 1200 calories. The article takes into account fat that needs to be lost with people who are already over weight. Starvation mode takes place when there is…

Thank you for this post!

Thank you to everyone who posted on my topic and not being harsh. This really is a hard thing to cope with some times. I'm glad to see others who have been there and I will take all the suggestions into consideration when I take things day by day.

How do you guys say no to your favorite comfort food? Some times its so hard. I know I'm not able to do one bite and walk away. One bite leads to a whole bowl of icecream or half a pizza! I need skills in will power. I know I can do this.

@gems4me I am here for support feel free to add me as a friend. I'm like you. I do well during the week and then by the weekend I totally fall off the wagon. I have a 6 month old and I'm exhausted all the time. He still doesn't have a set sleep cycle. I eat to stay awake and Its usually High SUGAR! Darn doughnuts should…

Do you know a gum that keeps it flavor a little longer than most? I tried orbit but after 5 mins I'm spitting it out because it has no taste and gets kinda gross.

I love to journal so this was very helpful. I have a desk job and some times at work I find myself eating out of boredem. I had to stop carrying cash so I'm not always at the vending machine.

Doughnuts! They are evil!
