Gina1010 86 Posted October 4, 2013 I am down 170 pounds and can't stop eating. I feel like I want to sabotage myself. I have much more to lose and find myself eating too many carbs. They go down easier. I am stressed and going to good for comfort once again. I started going to the gym to off set some of the calories but I am headed in the wrong direction. I eat anywhere from 1000 to 1500 calories and I should be at 800. I feel like I'm hungry all the time. I've got to get back on track. 10/10 is my 1 year anniversary. I need to lose at least 50 pounds. Uggggggh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know for me it took me a whole to figure that out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gotta stay away from those excess carbs, because they make you more hungry. The old carb monster! I have to say though, I am not a doc or nut, but 800 at a year out seems like too little. I would guess closer to 1200 and maybe just a little more if you are exercising a lot.... Did your nut actually tell you to eat only 800 a day until you get to goal? I eat between 1200-1400 5 days a week, and 550 two days a week (5:2 semi fast days) and this is how I got to goal into my third year.... No wonder you are hungry. Best of luck! You can do it, just try and stay with low glycemic index carbs, that will help with the hunger. 1 Georgia reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
