I understand what your problem is, and not only changing your diet because of the macronutrient ratios will help. Because you've lost weight, you feel justified in eating something that you would have restricted yourself eating if you were dieting/exercising. Numerous celebrities' weight loss became their amount of weight gained plus more because of this justification.

I've found that the best thing is to simply not have anything tempting around you for weeks. Please don't underestimate this tip, because a person's common sense like you said will just shut off they merely see what is tempting.

What ever you do, do not let yourself fall into your own traps. A package of Oreos (anything tempting that you like, really) is not speaking to you to buy it an then eat it.

I agree with puh8suwrux, those girls will probably experience something emotionally and physically distressful in their life that'll cause some weight gain and they won't know what to do about their bodies because they've never had to try hard to achieve their figures.

On a more positive note, just imagine yourself at an ideal weight. Just try this scenario. You're happy, maybe out with friends and family at a beach wearing a bikini. Little do they know that you were working out virgorously that morning, maybe pumping iron or running for miles. You've come out out of the workout with a huge smile and renewed sense of self. You're off to the beach in that same mood after getting ready and you're very proud of all that you have accomplished.

Doesn't that sound like something you'd love to feel like? It can put you in a different mindset if you just believe that one day it'll happen, because you deserve for it to happen. :]

One is too many and a thousand is never enough. 

boy, are you right. i could not have said it better.

in addition, it's almost as if since i KNOW the amount of calories in it, i'll go over a serving size's worth. especially if it's something i concocted through experimentation 'just for a taste test' but then i go nomnomnom.

Today I was scratching an itch on my arm and felt a hard lump. First, I was afraid. Maybe it was inflammation from an injury? But no, it's too hard for that and I didn't get hurt recently. I looked in the mirror, and would you look at that, it's just strong muscle. :] I felt pretty awesome. 

It's one of those little asian warehouse types of things you can only get at ethnic markets and whatnot. i threw the rest of it out..

I went through an unhealthy binging phase on..healthy food. Like whole grain cereals, nuts, apples (fruit of all kinds, really). I second the oatmeal thing. I used to eat oatmeal like every morning for a week or so. I also had a beans phase. I avoided meat at all costs, even though it was not for a vegetarian or vegan purpose.. I just kind of hated meat and replaced it with beans. Lots of beans. 

i totally died when i looked at the calorie count for the crunchwrap supreme at taco bell. it was so good! D: eh, it's okay...one of their fresco tacos have under 200 or 300 cals, I don't remember. 

Starbucks. I was so shocked. What goes into the coffee that makes them so high calorie?! 

Dunkin Donuts..I expected high calories but for one cookie, giantish as it may be, it was 600-something calories!

oh, wow. i'm in complete agreement with the whole largeness on top and smallness on the bottom clothing arrangement. D: even though i'm apple shaped, thank god i lose weight as quickly as i gain it...which may be a curse and a blessing. i've been told i have rather nice legs and i do like them as they are, but i would so love to be rid of my gut. i have small breasts too. -sigh-
