good at counting the calories...bad at healthy eating
So the title says it all...I am pretty good at sticking to my calorie allowance everyday. Ok so I slip up by a hundred or so every now and then but I don't see that a huge problem. What I do see as an issue is that all my calories are made up of unhealthy foods, I mean, ok so I will stick to 1300 a day, but when around 700…

I'VE SLIPPED UP BADLY! HOW CAN I HELP EASE THE EFFECTS?!

is 1300 calories too much?
So myfitness pal tells me that i should be consuming 1200 calories to obtain my weight loss goals, but this seemed at the time to be ridiculously low so i ended up setting my own goal of 1300 just to top it up a bit. However I am now worried I wont lose anything by eating this much =/ the thing i hate about calorie…

trying to get back into it
so i was doing so well, and then recently , over say the past 2 or 3 weeks i've been doing awfully - not excersising much, eating thousands (and i mean thousands ) of calories a day, not logging, being a lazy so and so. now i've put on so much weight i'm almost back into the 160 zone - a place i vowed i never would be…

taken me 5 months to lose a stone
I;ve been looking at my progress graphs over the past year , it seems its taken me over 5 months to lose a stone....that's really bad progress in comparison to some people that i've seen. Ive not always been on the straight and narrow but this realisation has really dissapointed me. :(

only a week off but motivation has gone entirely!
so i went on holiday last week for 7 days and knew straight away that I was not gonna worry about food - and thus I ate like an absolute pig. Somedays ( though I didnt track it ) I know I easily went over 4000 calories a day. Well now I am back home I want to get back into the amazing spirit and motivation that I had only…
