MacMadame 81 Posted April 22, 2008 And tell us whether any of that stuff you are eating, taste better than being thin feels? I've been biting my tongue about this, but I can't hold it in any longer. I hate that expression with the passion of a thousand fiery nuns! Maybe a million nuns. That's because every time I join a diet program, the people in it and the leaders say that. And then half the people drop out before they make goal and the rest gain their weight back. The truth is that food not only tastes great, it fills emotional needs. So in the short run, it often tastes better than being thin (an abstract concept that is far in the future for many) feels. My own motto is: I can do anything for 1 day. Or sometimes it's I can do anything for 2 hours or even 1 hour because that's all the willpower I have at that particular moment. I plan to use this motto a lot during the liquid and mushy stages.

Hastings 3 Posted April 22, 2008 Nothing tastes as good as success feels and every pound lost is a success. I try not to enable my addictive personality. :glare: Slimmy is that enough weight to be considered a gain? Does your weight ever fluctuate? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luscious 1 Posted April 22, 2008 1 kg after a 62 pound loss is hardly anything to get stressed about. There are so many variables, and unless you have consumed (or not burned) in excess of 7500 calories in that week it is highly unlikely to be weight in the form of body fat. You need an excess of approx 3,500 calories to gain 1 pound of body fat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ragdollx19 1 Posted April 23, 2008 If you ate terribly today or all week whatever at least you realize it... get to the gym and back on a healthy diet. YOU CAN DO IT (as evidenced by your weight loss so far!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slimmy120 2 Posted April 23, 2008 After reading your comments realise 1lb not that much weight, was eating between 1000 to 1200, but 3 days this week 900 and the rest between 1200 to 1400. i didnt do any walking this week as heavy rain, normally walk 30 to 45 min a day. no excuse i should have used my treadmill inside. I have 32 -34 pounds to get to goal.Will keep at it not going to be a gonna, am going to be a doer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
