That probably is the best thing I can do for myself. It would be nice to have a nutritionist, so I might look into that. Thank you!

Thanks for the help. Although it spooks me, I guess I can try to increase them a bit, and perhaps exercise more.. Not exercising would set me on edge too much.. But, I guess in the long run I'd rather be eating like a normal person, so that's my best bet!

I used to, until I got super obsessed with it, so I don't have it anymore. Also, as a side note, if anyone decides to look at my diary, I still ate on the days that aren't completely filled out. Those were just days that I ate out somewhere and already knew I was over my calorie goal.

Fair enough. I guess I should've been more clear. It's not that filling, but it makes me at least less hungry than an apple would. I eat the serving size of whatever cereal it is, plus half a cup of skim milk. Same here, I have acquired certain tastes-- black coffee, for example. I guess I just have to go into it with mind…

Diary is open. My goal is set to lose .5 pounds a week. I'm not even eating my allotted amount, but still gaining weight. If it helps, I did go through a period with disordered eating for about a half a year, which I'm in "recovery" from now. It seems that I either go from one extreme to the other: eating normal amounts of…

I've actually reached my goal weight, I just haven't updated it. I reached it, started not tracking what I ate (but still eating healthy foods), and then gained back 4 pounds, so now I'm paranoid.

Thanks for all the ideas, everyone. Maybe I'll have some eggs in a bit, and a chicken salad for dinner. I used to be a control freak about eating nutritiously, but that's slowly diminished. I just need a push in the right direction.

You're right, but I'm picky. Apples make me feel hungrier than I did to begin with, so I pair them with peanut butter, which makes the snack more calories than cereal. Oranges aren't as filling as cereal, etc., etc. But I will try to start eating things like this to acquire a taste for them, again. Thanks!

Commenting so I can remember this. So excited! I don't know why I never thought of this.

Personally, it took me awhile but I eventually acquired a taste for black coffee. Now flavored coffee tastes funny to me. Drink it black everyday and sooner or later you won't want it any other way.

Blueberries! They go great with everything, and they're just as good frozen as they are fresh. Couldn't live without them. Bananas are amazing, too!

It's never too late to eat. Especially when you are so much under your daily calorie intake. Eat up!

I'm almost 2 weeks into the routine and I'm a senior still, so I also do high school level cheer leading on Tuesdays and Thursdays and I do a competitive squad on Mondays and Wednesdays, so I do see that I'm most likely in a deficit. I only have a bench with a 20 pound barbell and the lowest plate weight I have is 2.5…

I eat anywhere from 70-100 grams of protein on lift days and let rest days fall where they want to. I try to hit 1550 calories a day, and I've been thinking about increasing that, but I'm not sure? I do the typical 8 cups of water a day and get about 6 hours of sleep every night with the occasional nap during the day.…

Ask yourself this: Is it disgust or jealousy? I used to be "disgusted" by people's overeating, but thinking about it now, I was just jealous that they could eat that much without a care in the world. I still do get disgusted (read: jealous), but I've also struggled with disordered eating, so I would say no, it's not normal.

Grilled chicken, peas, carrots, and a baked potato!

Blueberries, peanut butter, steel cut oats, eggs, and bell peppers!

I would love to have a smorgasbord of Poptarts. Blueberry, strawberry, chocolate, cinnamon, red velvet, ice cream sundae..every flavor known to man to put it shortly.

Red meat usually, ice cream (only like it on rare occasions.. Moose Tracks is my weakness though!), pop, most dips, only like cheese sometimes, ranch dressing (used to love it, but can't stomach it anymore)... I used to love most of these things, but now that I'm eating healthier, they're just.. blah... to me.

Dippy eggs! I always either break the yolk, get most of the egg stuck go the pan, or undercook it. Sigh.

As a person who has dealt with many of the same things, I completely understand. However, you MUST eat more than 800 calories a day. At the very least, eat 1,200. I lost almost 20 pounds on under 800 calories, but the mental struggle of upping your calories just isn't worth it. Start now the healthy way so you don't have…

Grape Nuts with some sort of fruit! Most of the Kashi cereal brands are pretty good, too.

Hi! I'm 5'3 and went from 127 to 109 pounds. I alternate between strength training and cardio daily and I'm currently in the process of upping my calories from 1,200 to 1,500 and maybe even more, if I can handle it without gaining. Anyone can feel free to add me; I'd love to have some new friends!

PA represent! Checking in from Westmoreland County!

Anyone can feel free to add me! I'll be on vacation for a few more days, so what I'm eating isn't the best but I'll be back on track soon and I'm always happy to accept another request! :)

I use milk and add a sweetener packet, oats, and cinnamon in once the oats are boiling. Towards the end I add frozen blueberries and chopped up apples. So good. I also use milk to boil the oats and I add in a sweetener packet, a tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder, and a tablespoon or two of natural peanut butter. Then,…

I ate a whole 12" Hawaiian pizza by myself in one day, which is a TON for me in early June. Would probably do it again though if that was all I was going to eat all day.

Feel free to add me (anyone)! I'm on vacation now, so this week won't have the best entries but I'll be back on track next week!

Hi! Feel free to add me (this applies to anyone reading this). This week won't be so great because I'm on vacation, but I'll be back on track next week! :)
