Need help kicking the fat girl mentality
I keep hitting this mental block when i get right under 200 lbs. Somehow i can go from 225 to 200 without even thinking about it really - i mean i put in effort, lots of it but it doesn't really phase me.

How bad is excess sugar for me long term?
I've noticed lately that I'm almost always over on my sugar intake. Granted most of the sugar comes from fruit, i'm still consistently over by a good amount.

must stay above 1,200 calories, net - why work out?
Team - I just recently realized (thanks to some super smart people on the forums) that I have to stay at 1,200 NET calories a day. For some reason I thought that as long as i consumer 1,200 calories (and then burned 4-500 at the gym) i was okay. Most days when I'm serious about being on track foodwise I have a hard time…

No chance what so ever of being pregnant and its usually really regular so i imagine its related to the eating change? and slightly more exercise. Is anyone else…
