I understand...and I too have those days when all I want to do is eat. However, I tried to stay ahead of myself by eating high volume foods on those days. Example - I will eat a huge bowl of air popped popcorn and a glass of milk before dinner. Then I may only want half as much of the bad stuff.

I'm 5'4"-130lbs too. When I got to goal...just recently, I decided to gradually up my cals. (I struggle w/ maint). I added a 100/day for a week or two and then more. I am currently at 1400/day base and it goes up with exercise. I am still losing a bit, but w/in 2-5lbs of goal.

I know it is hard when your sleeping, but try to make a concious effort to always stretch your legs with your toes pulled back towards the front of your body...never pointed!! I use toes-to-the-nose to remember...stupid, but it works! The calf can't knot up, when it is completely stretched.

Heavy fruit has more juice. Buy in season...it is usually cheaper and better. I found, when it is expensive you should buy something else...usually a bad crop and it won't task good anyway...save your money!!
