^Thanks for that info... So are you saying that I am eating too much or im not? The snacks that I had were spread out throughout the day as well. I should have mentioned that. Today looked like this: B: special k with skim milk, tea S: banana L: toasted egg sandwich with cheese, tea S: diet pepsi, g...

Hmm, so I probably overdid it on the snacks today. Even though they were healthy (for the most part) I should cut them out I suppose.

I'm glad you did too! I just recently found it as well (as you can see from post count). Oh and btw.. I'm Leah.. 24 years old living in the Uk right now. I'm originally from Canada but I moved over here 3 months ago to teach. goals are to lose about 20 pounds and just gain an overall healthier lifes...

Ok, I don't expect someone to find out caloric needs for me (as I know it differs with everyone) but if someone could look at what I ate today and tell me if you think I am eating too much i'd really appreciate it. I am one of those people who gets really paranoid about eating too much and im so sca...

I agree with Sarah you sound very motivated!!!

Good luck with all of your goals.. with hard work and your kind of determination im sure you will reach them.

What is your favorite fruit? You could have a small serving of your favorite fruit after a meal when you are having this craving. Also, are you sure that you are eating enough good quality carbs and drinking enough water? Make sure you are really satisfying your body. Sarah I try to eat the best ca...

Thanks to the two of you. I guess it comes down to really making sure I listen to body and not try to restrict but keep everything balanced so that im not caving with the sugar cravings. I like the idea of 6 small meals a day.. I know it makes sense to keep your blood sugar balanced so that it doesn...

Wow it sounds like you are doing great! I wish I was in your kind of shape. I hear you on the sweet tooth.. isnt it awful? Espec' since it was just Halloween that hasn't helped! I'm going to try your idea with sticking to 6 small meals a day and see how that goes for me too. Good luck!

^ do you mean unrealistic?

I tried this for a few days, literally.. and got so bored with it.

I've done lots of fad diets, they do not work!!

That's a good idea about the fruit. Chances are im not getting enough in.. I try to restrict myself a bit and maybe it's possible that this is causing me to crave more. I find this weightloss so hard sometimes you know? Thanks for the reply Sarah.. I took a look at your site by the way. You are doin...

Interesting! Thanks for that. I may order that book online.

How are you doing? I'd really like to know if this has been working for you! I'm in the same boat..gained weight and now im really trying to lose it. It's difficult!!

Hi everyone..im brand new to this site and i've been working out and trying to eat well for quite a while now but over the past couple weeks ive really been having trouble with sugar! I find that I have a sweet tooth after I have a meal and its quite frustrating, or around 4pm thats when I tend to r...
