  • I'm a student so this happens like ALL THE TIME. It used to happen all the time when I wasn't on a diet, at least... and might be one of the first reasons I'm overweighted for. (Plus emotional eating, you know, exams and everything). The only thing that really helps is eating well during the main meals (so that you won't…
  • If you just ate a single slice it's not actually a binge. I don't know how many calories it had, but yes it might happen that you weight less after a binge. In my opinion it might be because your body isn't used to eat that much anymore, so your metabolism gets active after changing your eating habits. As if it burned more…
  • As long as I really respect whatever you and your doctor are doing (just as I respect any other human) I think that solely basing on your weightloss plan there's not much to talk about on this board.
  • It's only possible if you're that kind of person that loses a lot of weight at the beginning. I lost almost 9 pounds throughout the first month I guess, but it was the very beginning of my journey. I was at my highest weight, never tried a serious diet, I probably lost so much because of the shock my body went through by…
  • Well you've only been on a diet for 2 months and already lost so much weight, maybe you just need some gym for that stomach. Unfortunately it doesn't go away by itself :/ but I don't think you're doing anything wrong, why giving up now? Just try some different exercise before giving up
  • This is very true and this is what I usually do to keep myself focused and "happy". I wouldn't have been able to resist 1,5 years of diet without this mental disposition. Unfortunately, humans are social animals and so we naturally try to communicate with people and keep in touch with them. I try not to get influenced but…
  • Well there are lots of things that I didn't eat and I'm not eating yet, while some things that I used to eat in moderation now are just allowed when I'm not counting calories (e.g. having dinner out, birthdays etc...). For example I only eat pizza when dad comes to visit me, so usually once a month (even though sometimes I…
  • I've been dieting since the end of May, 2012 so it's been more than 1 year up to now (17 months today? yay) and I've lost 13 kgs (28 lbs). I could have lost more I guess. But I haven't been intensively dieting and exercising all the time. For example, I lost several kgs during the first 2-3 months. I plateaued during the…
  • I don't think that's the best idea for you. If you've tried having 5 meals a day with not much success, I think that having just 1 big meal a day would leave you ravenous for the rest of the time. Especially if you're overweight and you've been used to eat, this would be pretty much like going on a crash diet. The only…
  • It's not impossible, you just have to eat carefully. I usually eat 1200 kcals or a little more and that's what I eat: Breakfast: coffee with sweetener + a snack (accereal bar or a croissant, or a few diet biscuits) OR a glass of orange juice with some kellogs classic cereals OR a diet yogurt and a piece of fruit -> I…
  • Well, now THAT'S an accomplishment. Great job!
  • I would like to lose another 5 kgs until the end of the year, so that I could reach my goal and focus on exercise more than weight loss. This means losing almost a couple of kgs each month - 1 until the end of October, 2 in November, and another 2 in December. I'm sure I can work hard and I hope I will lose it.
  • Ew no. I'd be at my goal weight already if I lost all that weight for real :(
  • I'm 165 cm so I'm kinda average :p
  • I used to have lots of workout playlists on Youtube that I once erased :( what a shame. Anyway here's my suggestions (alphabetical order) (any genre, but mostly alternative rock, indie rock, indie pop and electronica) : A Perfect Circle - "The Hollow", "The Outsider", "Pet" (I love this band and might be able to workout on…
  • This happens to me a lot. A few hours after dinner I get hungry and I still have some hours before bedtime ahead. So I always leave some calories for a bedtime snack. I usually have a couple of biscuits and a hot chamomile tea. Something sweet helps and I don't happen to ruin my whole day.
  • Either you deal with it by yourself hoping it won't kill you (both mentally and phisically) or you ask for help, which is the best option although I know it's not easy. It might just mean talking to a friend and ask for an advice. I've learnt that some of us have to deal with it and there's probably no way to make all the…
  • BMR 1528 TDEE 1833 daily calorie goal 1200
  • What about mantaining for a bit here on MFP? When you're ready to go you can just eat as much as you did (approx.) when you were on maintainence on here.
  • When I changed my weekly loss from 2 pounds to 1 pound it actually switched to 1420 or 1570 kcals - I can't recall which was, because it depends on the level of activity you set either. If you're at the beginning 1200 might be way too little, try eating 1500 and it should work. You're still at a deficit, no way you could…
  • Love your body in the "after" picture! Wish I could look like that :P Great job!
  • I went for a run during the afternoon so that no one was around. Sometimes I asked my best friend to join me so that I would feel less embarassed... Anyway, trust me, no one's going to think about you or judge you :) especially if you step in someone who's going for a run either.
  • CATSSSSSSSSS <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 *turns into some childish fangirl*
  • "Yeah, you haven't got a lot of hair, but I wouldn't notice if I didn't know you" I suffer from hair loss and I am very self conscious about it -__-
  • Wish it wasn't immoral and illegal to beat someone because of this. oops.
  • THIS! ^ Big boobs, small waist, soft tummy and round thighs. (no huge thighs, wide and fat tummy, chubby arms, stretch marks, red scars, and huge flabby bum as I do) :(
  • Yep. That's why they're aimed for people who cannot correctly expel liquids. Losing liquids wouldn't probably even make anyone look thinner, if their problem is having exceeding bodily fat. You can only lose that by burning it down gradually with exercise, unfortunately. On the bright side I don't think anything bad is…
  • I don't know if your question is if you should eat more or less than that, anyway... the best way to recover is to eat without counting calories :) I've never been anorexic but I've heard this from lots of girls who were. You should re-gain a healthy relationship with food, which means that you should be able to tell…
