GuyMontag 1,264 Posted August 9, 2013 Sometimes I think we have to dig deeper into the reasons why we overeat. It may be as simple as your schedule, or maybe you eat in front of the tv, or it might be something that you need help with like eating to cope with stress. I would recommend journaling and/or maybe seeking therapy just to get some professional thoughts on the subject. I know a lot of people freak out sometimes at the thought of therapy but sometimes it just helps to toss thoughts and ideas at someone that has insight into why we sabotage ourselves and our weight loss. Just my two cents! Good luck! 2 ☠carolinagirl☠ and knmcd reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dawalsh 919 Posted August 9, 2013 I love the myfitnesspal. to put the portion in it is right under where it asks you to enter the serving amount. I love my fitness pal too! I'm under the username dawalsh OR tutti517 if you want to be a MFP buddy. MFP keeps me honest with my calorie count and I've gone over my calorie limit 3 times since Dec. I hate when I see the red numbers but it keeps me aware. 1 knmcd reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
