Can you work in a piece of chocolate to calm the urge? I hear ya' but good for you for not giving in to the urge to binge!

Now I want pizza, bagels and beer. Thanks, y'all.

Weigh once a week. Your body can hold onto water and salt. It's normal. :)

I've added cycling to my exercises (outdoors, anywhere from 5-12 miles each time) and have noticed my knees are definitely better. My right knee "clicks" a lot after jogging...I jog usually on weekends on the treadmill. Since I started cycling 3 weeks ago I've almost forgotten about my knee. Good luck!

Me toooooo. Can't stop eating them, which I guess is better than chips...
-
I love this site but I feel like the exercise totals are off...I think the estimates are too high and it causes me to over eat. I now low ball my exercise totals.
-
Not to discount you but that's really not much of anything. I can fluctuate up to 7 lbs if I eat certain foods, usually containing gluten. My daily fluctuation (if I don't eat gluten) is 2-3 lbs at most. It's normal, a lot comes into play, sodium, changes in diet, weather, etc... You're all good.

It's totally normal. Sad, but normal. I don't know many females who feel the way they look, including myself!

I know this is an old topic but holy crap am I happy to hear I'm not the only one. It's been like this since college and though it can be controlled sometimes other times I need to lock up my food. It sucks for weight loss. Sorry/happy to hear I'm not alone.
-
Congratulations!!! You look great!
-
You're supposed to eat them but it's okay to keep a deficit, just be smart about it. If you exercise vigorously you should definitely eat more than you would on a non-exercise day. The point is to eat less, but eat enough to sustain yourself.

Weekend mornings, after the gym, before shower. Naked. (and YES, wet hair DOES make the scale a lb heavier)
-
When I was in better shape I allowed myself a cheat meal...it keeps me sane. A cheat day is too much for me and would tempt me to carry it into the next day. Since I have more weight to lose I allow a cheat snack. This weekend it was a piece of cake. I am not a dog but I do support rewarding myself with food. I don't…
-
I've found that once or twice a week in helpful. Saying that...I'm nuts and check almost every day but I can tell you that is NOT motivational and completely stupid and maybe (definitely) an OCD thing.
-
Can you add your favorite fruits? A banana, some strawberries...anything to alter the flavor?!
-
I just got a bike after 20 years. My train ride is about an hour each way...it's been nice to come home and ride for a bit at night and on weekends!
-
It's not personal, some of us want to be left alone. I don't think it's about being bigger or smaller, it's about getting the job done. Keep doing what you're doing because you want to, not because you want the same in return.

It's great if you can enjoy/tolerate the juices. I'm actually doing one right now, it's probably my fifth one and finally found a brand I like. I would suggest strongly to not do this for weight loss. You'll lose a few pounds that will most likely come back immediately after you start eating solid food again. I'm not sold…
