The only way I was able to stop emotional eating was logging. I saw a counselor who told me to stop logging "what I eat" and start logging "why I eat." Oh, boy this was hard! I didn't want to stop the what because I was afraid I would totally sabotage my efforts, but you know what - IT DIDN'T I started losing more. Here is…

I too have picky eaters in my family. My husband insists on drowning everything in sauces and no my kids too. We can not change the habits of those around us, but we can call on them for support. Sit down with your husband and calmly discuss your concerns and problems. Come up with a solution TOGETHER! Maybe it can be…

First off, it sounds to me like you don't need a bunch of people telling you what is wrong, how what you did was wrong, how to fix it. You need support! I want to say that it is a good thing that you feel terrible! Why?, because it shows you are changing. I am sure in the past you have done this and not even had a second…

If the calorie deficit is low enough your body will go into starvation mode. In this mode it will begin to store intake foods as fat anticipating the potential long term starvation. Also, when consuming high sugar foods (be the sugars in simple carbs or in raw sugar forms) it will spike insulin. At this point the body goes…

Completely agree. What it does to your body physiologically is much worse than fat. Both should be eaten in moderation, but sugar will spike you insulin. When your insulin spikes your body goes into fat storing mode and usually around your middle. Fat does not affect insulin like sugar does. It can add to your stores if…

HEATING PADS!!! This and I started taking camu-camu and royal macca. Get them at a vitamin health store if interested. These two helped TONS. The heating pads helped when the cramps came but the other two supplements made it so I very rarely get them anymore...good luck!!!

After about 15 lbs lost 2 years ago I plateaued. I DID NOT believe anyone who said to start eating more, but when I did I started losing again. As long as you keep consistent with working out, it is good to add about 200-250 cals a day. I am not the type of person who can put the time and energy into staggering my cals for…

Hi, I just have to say that what you experience (as you can tell from responses) is very typical. Especially for those of us who are addicted to food and we eat without thinking. First of all. One thing I did that helped was to be mindful for three days as to why am I eating (log it mentally). Am I eating because I feel…
