I'm 18, 5'3 and 112 pounds! :) I'm trying to lose at least 10 by April. Thank you! I will consider doing research and seeing if I need to up it a little!

I seriously think it had many emotional factors. I just had a big heart-to-heart with my Mom (i have social anxiety & mild depression) because I've been holding in feelings and have felt lonely for so long. I finally don't feel alone any more. Even though I still feel sick from my binge I'm not going to do anything about…

Thank you. When i was first binging i had just moved country, to stay with my Father. We fought a lot and I ended up back in the UK. I felt like a failure, I felt emotional and my family made comments about my body - like that i was looking 'skinny' which i really wasn't, they're just all overweight. I don't know what…

Guys, no. I am talking about PLANT BASED. No unnatural sugars (so no oreos for me), no processed foods, nothing like that. It is about healthy grains like oatmeal, quinoa, brown rice, healthy fats like avocado and hummus, healthy veggies and fruits, natural almond milk, legumes, and my favourite...sweet potatoes! I am…

And yes I enjoy running - for me when I run to good music it helps me distract myself from the stress in my life :P thank you for all your suggestions!

Thank you - I checked this morning and had gained 2 pounds :/ hoping it comes off by the end of the week :)

Thank you, these helped a lot :) and yes I soon want to get up to an hour 3 x a week but simply am not fit enough yet :) I'm slowly building up, though.

my height is 5'4 and weight is 108 pounds. Yes I've only just started pilates. Am thinking of adding an hour of cardio in the week though

If you're going to be rude and unhelpful then why comment?

Trust me I'm not that thin. I need to get down to my goal weight and then I'm going to work on sculpting, toning and strength. And yes I suppose you're right - I just need to calm down and do what I've been doing. Hopefully the weight will come off :)

Hahaha yes I've been eating it there for years since I grew up there, not sure why I'm telling you this, but this restaurant is so important to me. I usually order the quesadillas (on the appetizers) so im sure it's not over 600 or anything. I'll try to limit the chips and dip, only drink water, and also lay off the…

Okay, will do! Thanks for the help :D

Yes, very true :) nothing worth having will come easy!!

Okay, so, is increasing to 1300 a better idea?

Thank you for your help. However, don't people normally eat under their BMR to lose weight??

It is necessary, trust me. Its not low, and 110 for my height is a healthy weight :) I would never want to be underweight or anything

I start C25K tomorrow! Will send you a friend request :D

Well said. Aha.

I'm 5'4 and weigh 119 currently. And no, I'm not skinny or aiming to be underweight. I've never had a bad relationship with food I'm just really serious about this weight loss! x (I'm aiming to lose 9 more pounds)

1200 isn't that bad everyone! My sister ate like 700-800 a day and maintained it for ages, but also got an eating disorder, because lets face it, that is really unhealthy. But I hardly ever binge or get cravings, it was just this weekend, and I was fine all day but I just got night time cravings I think! <3

I'm eating 1200! I've lost 11 pounds so far, 9 to go now! You can do it :D

I didn't hit my calorie goal lol - I went like over 400 (up to 1600s) :/ banoffee pie is very calorie dense!

Thank you so much. This really helped :) and yesss..it did taste real good :laugh:

I know. I just want to achieve my goal so badly. This wasn't like myself. I'm just going to move on and get right back on track tomorrow :)

Thank you so so much! I will make cookies this weekend :) way better than the lunch ladies ones you're right! I suppose i just do it out of habit...and because i can. I'm going to start taking a little pot of fruit salad to have after my lunch, therefore i wont need the cookies. Thank you again! :D
