HI I would love to join your group

Wow! now that is a detailed post! :flowerforyou: Did you cut and paste or type that in ? no deficit for me today. I ate all my calories today Every last one of them. By that I mean the calories it takes to maintain my current weight. One day is ok but I suspect I actualy went over my maintence calories a bit. Tomorrow I'll…

I didn't have such a great "food " day either. I've run out of healthy fruit and vegetables and I didn't go grocery shopping today (and I should have). So once again a lot of starchy foods were eaten. :cry: Planning really is the key for me to make better choices. I feel icky and still hungry even now after having eaten…

If anyone would like to be MFP friends let me know :)

Hi ! Great idea for a group.

Thanks! Concise Information. I think you should repost this and pin it. This helps me a lot because I've been going through the steps you decribed (more or less). I'm starting to feel less full and definatly more energetic and think more clearly than before.

Thanks for the advice. I'll give it a week or 2 to see how it goes before I do full reset.

Very encouraging! Thanks for sharing

Great advice! I'm going to spread them out more. We had a potluck at work today so my food journal is not good. I tried to just take a bite or two of a few types of food. I realy don't like to participate in pot lucks, but I also want to be social from time to time. My metabolism is so sluggish right now. I hope I can get…

I did read it. I realy did'nt think that I was cutting my calories that much. Now I realize I was mini yo yo ing over the last few months. . I had cut calories and lost a few lbs but my appetite came back with a vengance and I craved Wendy's chicken sandwiches and sweets uncontrollably at times. In addition, I went through…

I try to get to bed at a regular time so I can get 6-8 hours in. I've been getting regular sleep for several weeks now and it has helped tremendiously with my energy. Even though I feel full, the added calories has put my energy over the top!. I even want to work out. I've started using my weights again.

I'm having the same problem. I 'm feeling quite full. I've been eating about 1700 calories. Looking at my food diary , I have a habit of eating sweets in the afternoon--thereby upping my calories (and sugar). Today I did much better. I avoid most dairy so I use Jay Robb Egg White protien powder Vanilla Flavor . I'm…

You both look fantastic! Nice job with the one handed hairdo! :smile:

I'm new to this so I have no advice. I'm just wondering how your clothes are fitting? Years ago I worked out with a trainer and I did gain 7 lbs in muscle!

I know how that feels! I guess I would just say do your best to be genuinly happy for her progress and try not to attach it to yours because one has nothing to do with the other. Our value as people has nothing to do with our weight!!!!

Thank you! It seems people are getting steady results with this method and that it is truley a way of life.

Thanks!

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer. This is a very active group and a lot of people post. I figured I would get lost in the shuffle :) I think I'll start with the cut and see how that goes. This all makes more sense than drasticaly cutting the calories which would drive me to binging anyway.:happy:

Hi everyone. I've been playing WOW since before Wrath. How long has that been? Not sure. I 've played on and off over the years. I play Alliance <mostly>. I started playing as a way to be connected to the world while I was recovering from an illness. I really had no idea that I would enjoy the game as much as I do, having…
