The eating disorders are actually in EM2WL. It is simply the disorders some of us have had by counting cals, over exercising, Low cal, Low Carb, Low Fat....eat this not that....drink this drink that....anything really to excess. That is what they consider an eating disorder. It really is the same thing. Just EM2WL, talks…

The juice I like - the Dr. Oz has only apples, lemon and lime as a fruit and charts at 207 cals a serving. I am feeling safe about that I think :) We shall see how it goes.
-
Understanding obviously that no 2 fruits/veggies are the same of course. Ok, I will be sure to allow for this is cals.
-
The recipe site has the calorie and nutrient breakdown though....thoughts? http://juicerecipes.com/recipes/

I joined this group too on Facebook ETF-well one of them for support, because there was no private EM2WL groups. You do have to watch your language there, cause they do not like to hear alot about cleaner eating or organics etc, because of the reasons stated above. It is about the same.....I think the re-set is sorta…

Kristen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My favorite gal!!!! I am week 11 right now. And let me say this. Every time I messed with my TDEE, I gained. I have gained 18 lbs in these last 11 weeks....each time I did it was because of 1 week not eating right. Generally under my BMR most days. Or not eating throughout the day. So though…

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!~

<<< No patience. LOL. I have been feeling under the weather since the week of TOM. I attribute the first week of feeling yuck to that, and in that week I did not do well in preparing healthy food choices. Well what I consider healthy anyway. I had alot of processed foods, and determined that Gluten/carbs/processed make my…

I intially thought I would do 8-10 weeks of reset. But I really damaged my metabolism with a very very strict diet and hormone. So I basically thought at least 12 weeks would be best. By week8 I realized upon using a new TDEE calculator that I had been eating 400 under my TDEE for the entire 8 weeks and decided to up to…
-
Hey - I realized 8 weeks into a re-set that my 2400 cal TDEE was an incorrect TDEE for me, so it was a mutual decision that I would go an additional 4 weeks. TOTAL 16 Weeks of Reset. 8 weeks of 2800 cals. I do workout when I am feeling well. But do basic Strength training 15-20 mins. I have noticed some changes in my…

All due respect given. I am a meat eater. I live in cattle country and I am not planning to change that. :) I am not sure I understand your post. Are you doing the EM2WL plan? I am in the RESET phase. So I am not trying to lose right at this moment. I am just trying to maintain and get through the mental ISSUES !!!!!!!!…
-
This was awesome! I am taking notes. I actually am feeling 200 times better. The last 5 days I have been staying away from processed foods and I feel so much better for it. Thanks for this info!!!!!!! All your ideas are FANTASTIC!
-
Just as I was headed to the store to pick up some healthy choices, my car battery died. I had $140 to last us a week in gas, food and bills and I had to spend $94 on a battery. Needless to say, I got some V8's (Low Sodium) some frozen fruit and bananas from the 99 cent store, some Almond Milk, Hamburger, Beans and Sweet…

It can be freaky....hang in there!!!!!

I wish I could say it was a vacation. I am out of town 1 time a month for work. And it has me running all over for clients, and staying on friends sofa, eating her food. So it makes preparing difficult. I brought snacks, but just was not a good week. I think I will have to bring a cooler with food next time round :(
-
Be sure to follow the forums here - that is a great start. Consider going to eatmore2weighless. com and joining also. THE WHOLE THING IS THERE!!!! It is a great group and tons of support! Friend me if you have not already :)

Got your request!!!!! Thanks for the kudos! This is a totally different journey.....never in my life would I have thought just eating would scare me to death!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR ENCOURAGEMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't wanna buy new jeans....but had none to ride my pony in. I am greatful that winter is coming and I can wear jeans, stretch pants and big sweaters, cause I am not wanting to buy anymore clothes at this size (I have over 30 pair of jeans in sizes 17 - 14 I cannot get into) I have an entire closet of nice things I can…
-
I hope to keep at this weight, but going away for work again at the end of the month (every month 5 days gone). This is when I gained it last time. I think it is NOT eating enough food while away that caused that last gain. So I will be trying hard to keep my calories UP UP UP, even if it means 2-3 protein shakes in a day…
-
I have not been doing my HIIT like I should. But bought some great foods this month and I am planning on getting through this season........this to shall pass <3
-
Thanks guys, I am stable here at this 8lb gain......not losing it....yet. Sticking with EM2LW, not giving up. I hate being this size but I understand the process and I know that 245 is not where I will be forever........hangin tough at TDEE at least another 8 weeks.
-
I have not gained in 1 week. I am stable at the initial 8lbs gained in now 25 days. I am almost positive the initial 3 lbs was from the re-introduction of carbs - was carb free almost (20g a day) for close to 8 months, and the other 5 came on after a week of being away and NOT eating enough cals at all. In addition, I…
-
I appreciate the input everyone. I am confident I.am doing what I am supposed to do.....I.am just so.shocked at gain and the bloating I.feel....
-
I thought I did answer. No, I am logging everything I eat, have gone over a couple times or 5, used your spreadsheet and another calculator to arrive at TDEE. Yes I started new workout program, strength training, made sure TDEE reflects those workouts. I am a lot confused about what you talking about though :) Thought we…
-
sorry repeat....dumb phone

I was on several yoyo diets. No loss or gain for 8 months no matter what I did. Came to EM2WL already eating TDEE - used your spread sheet. And another calculator. I rarely go over, but have, and rarely eat big Mac foods. Had to get macros in order. Initial 3 lb gain. Went outs town last week and DID NOT eat enough, for…

I already have a bag of 20 in the fridge! Those and eggs I do believe :P I love the mexican market here - I get 6 avos for $1, so I pick the hard green ones and buy 30 and put em in the fridge and take em out a couple every other day!
-
My goal is to eat as clean as possible. I see no reason to eat anything processed. I can't say that I will not on occasion but I don't wanna if I don't have to. I do not work out of the house most days, so cooking is not impossible, also no kids, just hubs and I. So there it is!!!!!!! EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!
