Over 1600 so I guess deficit. I have mfp set to 1lb loss and activity level set to active.

Yes I've been on vyvance it didn't help.

I've had a Fitbit since 2014. So it hasn't really helped....

I have been going to a therapist for 3 years about it. But I can try just logging. It's usually about 700-1000 calories over.

My picture in my profile is from 2 1/2 years ago. I am 5'2. I want to lose about a pound a week. So mfp put me at 1600 with my activity level.

Been trying guys..not doing so well. This sucks.

Thank you for the advice everyone! I appreciate it. I will defiantly try to start slow.

Well for 2 years I lost weight eating what I want. I was only on low carb for about 8 months to get to goal weight. But I agree with wasn't realistic.

Originally what causes me to start binging was I was low carb high fat for awhile. I dropped weight like magic but the second I went back on a normal diet ( or rather 'cheated' once ) it was game over and has been ever since. So I think I do need more carbs than I'm getting. Or I don't know. As carbs is what I binge on.

20% of my TDEE is about 1600. But I still find that hard to get to too as I go over every day by a lot. And thanks Emily .. I'm far too scared to stop logging though. Which is funny because I'm going over anyway! I might as well try to stop logging for a little bit or at least loosely log to try to get back on track

I know 1200 is too low to be honest but I just feel desperate. Even at 1600 which is what my current MFP goal is set at, I can't seem to hit that low. I'm always 400-1200 or so calories over. I do need to learn to kick the binge, yes. But I don't know how. I said I want to get back to 1200 calories but that's far from what…

Thanks!

Thank you so much guys!

maybe. I am always gassy and bloated. But that could do with how I'm eating way too much.

Sure I have a lot of muscle but I'm looking to cut down fat. But I can't stop eating and I just keep gaining about 1-2lb per week.

Yesterday night alone I had 3 bags of chips, an Icecream cone, bagel and cream cheese, banana, protein shake, and a lot of ground beef before bed...

That was like half my daily calories right there though. I know it doesn't sound like a binge but it feels out of control to me. I could keep going all day if I let myself.

I donno. It's like today. I had a slice of Ezekiel bread with peanutbutter and banana. I was still hungry so I had chicken breast and a slice of bacon. Then I was still hungry so I had two bowls of whole grain cereal. And this was all in the span of an hour. And I still feel hungry.

It just seems like the more protein I eat the hungrier I am. I try to limit carbs but I'm so hungry for them lol. But when I eat them I binge out. I guess I can try high fat again. I use to do paleo and did great but I crashed. Though don't I need carbs since I lift heavy 5x a week?

Thank you :)

Thank you. And thank you everyone else. These posts are extremely helpful.

This all started before I went on the meds but it is a good thought.

Thanks everyone! Yeah I might go get blood work

I have BPD, depression and anxiety problems. They never stopped me from loosing weight before though so :(

It's about 26% now last I checked. My stomach carries most of my fat and it's really bothering me.

Thanks guys. And no starwhisperer, my BMI Is on the border of overweight now.

Three years ago I was obsessively weighing food and eating junk food to lose. I was constantly hungry and shaky and it was easy to me SOMEHOW. I switched to Paleo and did amazing for 8 months - not hungry always full, happy -- and that's when I started binging out of no where..probably because I got down to a unhealthy…

I exercise daily whether it's walking or cardio or weight lifting. I've tried eating back exercise calories. Eating FITBIT adjustment calories Eating TDEE of my goal weight And intermittent fasting. Hell I even tried maintaining for awhile. This is all over the course of 2 years. Nothing helps. I know I'm eating enough…

Currently at 140 and looking to get to 115.

Trying to go back to 16:8 today. So hungry. :(
