Agreed! It was the same for me. I just ate whatever I would usually be inclined to, and logged it all, and was surprised and disgusted. I had gone over my calories that first day by 622, for a grand total of 2422. I'd had issues with portion control most of my life, and stopping eating when I was actually full. I'm down…

Awesome job so far! :)

My favorite snack lately has been 2 tablespoons of Trader Joe's White Bean and Basil Hummus with 1/2 - 3/4 cup of raw snow pea pods. Really good, and only about 100 calories!

I'm set to lose 1 lb a week, eating 1830 calories a day. I've been at it for 21 days now, and I tend to weigh myself every Thursday. So far I've lost 5.8 lbs! I tend to come in under my calories for the day, just because I'm full enough eating less than 1830, but sometimes I'll go slightly over but have earned back some…

Yes!! I think that sums it up nicely for me, too. I've dated lots of emotionally/mentally immature guys and it's really draining.

Congrats!! Isn't that great, when you no longer feel like the punchline of a joke? :)

In 2009 I was at what I thought was the heaviest I'd ever be, at 5'5" and 189. I didn't want to hit the 190+ mark, so I'd started working out, eating more sensibly and going on 3 mile runs, 3 nights a week. From the end of February 09 to about the fall of that year, I'd lost 34+ lbs and was feeling good and looking good…

I so know what you mean! I'm not really hungry with my new caloric intake, but because I was so used to overeating in the past, I feel like I haven't had enough unless my stomach feels uncomfortably full. :( Hang in there, it'll get easier!

I've only been doing this for 5 days so far, so time will tell haha. So far, I've majorly cut back on my intake of sugar, which seemed to be the bulk of my caloric intake previously. Also, moderation with everything! Because I now weigh out my foods according to the actual recommended portion sizes, I can see that…
