I also think it may have something to do with my hormone imbalance. This didnt start until i played with BC. Ah!!!! I am so upset and frustrated by this!!!

EXACT SAME HERE!!! When ever i loose the weight i alwaysss bounce back like my body is holding on to something that is SO unnecessary!! Thats why i am saying it is self sabotage and complete insanity. It drives me nuts you are not alone.

Same here! But how much do you reccomend i eat? I already bumped it up to 1800 cal a day!

Wow! thank you so much for taking the time to write this - Very interesting story you went through! I do have the modvation and will power but for some reason when ever i slim down i bounce back like my body want to hold on to the unnecessary weight.. You are very strong wiled and are very determined. You succeded only…

Ok i will check it out - How do you take these tests you are mentioning? I am very interested in learning about the chemistry and balance of my body and brain. Something is not quite right, I was also on birth control pills and they didnt agree with me and completely screwed up my body - Could that be another trigger that…

Great! Thank you! Exactly- something i want to pinpoint here - Do i have low serotonin/ dopamine levels? Is that why i am doing this? To feel those emotions. I feel like i could be depleted in them and that may be what causes these episodes.. How can i balance them out - I am avery happy person though! Could there be…

.. Its not like that at all.

Yes. Were you able to overcome this? It is repetitive thinking i think. And when you are in the business of self image it makes it that much worse. I think i may need to take a break from all of it until i figure myself out - great advice. Thank You

Hi, You are right. I would love to see a therpist and trust me I have tried - i have been dealing with this for a year now in different ways. The thing is Therpists are extreamly expensive as well as nutritionists. I think i have a bad body image because of the industry i am in and the way i have been treated in the past.…

Yes I agree - Thank you for the kind words and taking the time to read/ write back to me - right now everything helps. it is very comforting to read some of the statements people take the time to write and know that people care.

Ok - I will reply to all your comments separately - thank you for your feedback.

Maybe you are right.. :( I took everyones advice.. maybe i am just having a set back? I wish i was stronger then this.. I keep falling back in the same pattern. I just want it to end. :./

How long have you been doing this? Keep it up and see where you are in a few weeks if its not working then try to maybe ad more to your workouts.

WOW!!! THANK YOU!! This is EXACTLY my problem

Thats VERY helpful Thank You This is the advice i need and am looking for!!!

HEY!!! YOU COULD REALLY HELP ME!!! Check out my post: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1318840-under-weight-in-need-of-help-with-goals I have the SAME problem!!! - Please can you help me with my goals PLEASE! :) Thank You

BTW I DONT LOG MY EXERSIZE!

Because for my body type IIFYM says to only have 40g of fat a dayy.

So what should my goal be? I am confused VERY confused. I have a tummy yet i am under weight? I need a lean stomach with muscle and i need to know what my goal should be to achieve that.

Ok - Fair enough- I am 5ft10 My goal weight was 115 (but that would be underwight which i find strange because i do have a bit of a belly - i just need to gain muscle and turn my belly into a lean flat stomach) So i am not so much worried about weight as i am about my measurements.. I have a 300 calories defict right now.…

Thats a great idea. - I KNOW PLANNING AHEAD DOES WORK. I am just not sure how to do it. I know you will tell me its simple but i dont buy the grocerys i never know whats for dinner and I am always out running around never knowing where i will end up. i dont have a 9-5 job where i know exactly what my day will be like. For…

Want to message me?

Yes i am in no denial that maybe i am over thinking it.. I really dont want to be though.. I just want an eating plan i can follow for my goals rather then me always over thinking about what im going to eat and being stressed out if i have already run out of my fat and carbs for the day and im left with just protien and im…

Sorry everyone if i started some "bickering" that was not at all my intention... And i want you all to know i am NOT a troll... I am just trying to figure this out for myself.. I was curious to get some opinions on this diet.. Right now i am at 125 pounds I have a 1600 calorie diet 30% carbs 30% fat and 40% protien I also…

Really? - Sorry im new to this.. But if you go over your allowed amount of carbs for the day and still have calories left over you will still loose weight? Because i am at 1600 calories a day and i find it very difficult for me to be able to eat all of it because im already done with my carbs for the day :S
