I normally eat about 1300cals plus anything I've worked off so on a day that I'm just sitting at the computer all day I'll eat about 1300cals but if I go to the gym and burn another 300cals then I'll eat 1600cals. |

Thanks for the advise, I went to the doctor this afternoon and he actually advised the same thing, to take multivitamins he said because I don't eat alot of meat that I am lacking some nutrients in my diet. |

| Weight Loss | Do you eat the same food you always did in moderation, or did you change your menu completely? | Mar 24 2008 16:11 (UTC) |

No my diet changed quite dramatically I now eat lots of fruit and vegetables, I don't eat much bread or rice as I can eat more vegetables than I can rice and I prefer to do that and stay full for longer |

I disagree my sugar intake and carbohydrate intake is always very high as I eat allot of fruit and Vegetables, I read part of that link and it states that Glucose feeds cancer not Fructose (found in fruits) so even though my sugar and Carbohydrate intake is high I still have a very nutritious diet. |

| Foods | What foods have you lost or gained the taste for since making changes to your diet? | Mar 10 2008 15:07 (UTC) |

I wouldn't say I've lost the taste for anything, I still like everything I used to eat I just don't eat it as much. I used to hate vegetables before my diet and now the majority of my dinners consists of them, I love Broccoli, Cauliflower, Peas, Carrots and Green beans. |

Hi I'm about 5 10 around 147lbs, goal weight is 138lbs (what I was this time last year) I don't really excersise anymore as I don't get chance so I try to stick to about 1300cals a day but I have a problem with bingeing at the moment so normally at the weekend I eat alot more than that as I'm prone to binges every Sunday |

Thanks for both the responsesOriginal Post by fluffydragon:
I don't normally eat that much during the day, I tend to save my calories for when I go home as thats when I get hungry, I know its not ideal but if I had anymore calories through the day I would go way over my allowance at night |

| Motivation | How do you motivate yourself to get out of bed early and go to the gym? | Oct 15 2007 11:57 (UTC) |

I tell myself a few things in the morning:
I think if you make sure you are prepared to go to the gym in the morning and have a few reasons to go you can persuade yourself, I hate getting up so early, its dark in the UK at 6.00am and everyone else in the house is still sleeping but I know I'll feel better once I've been. |

| I know how you feel, I get that every few months, occasionally I'll take a few days off but then I get bored in the house and realise I was better off at the gym anyway, I go every morning and night 4-5 days a week, I hate the place but a few days off normally sorts me out and I realise how much I prefer having something to do than sitting about in the house watchin tv. | |||

| How can that be safe? I used to eat 1200 before I went to the gym, I'm no eating 1600-1700 a day which is still low, from the posts I have read on the forum I shouldnt be eating as low as 1200 cals when I'm working out so much | |||
| Foods | Breakfast...how much is too much? | Aug 27 2007 13:59 (UTC) |

| I Don't think it matters as long as you don't go over your limit during the whole day, I try to limit how much I have for breakfast so that I can have more later in the day when I get hungary but everyone is different, If you can stick to 1200 cals a day using that amount for breakfast then its fine. | |||

| I find when I get stressed out I either binge or don't eat at all then I normally feel worse and think I've let myself down so I'll eat some more then there are sometimes when I just feel really fed up counting calories when my friends don't need to and I think why shouldn't I have that chocolate when they can, I later find out why when I stand on the scales |

| I never count, It would depress me far to much, When I binge its normally the fattiest foods I can find, like chocolate, pizza etc so it doesn't bear thinking about given that I can eat a whole pizza, 2 bowls of cereal and about 10 chocolate bars! |

| I think 3 days is a bit different from skipping lunch and breakfast, you might find you will be hungary later in the day. Personally I cant go without 3 meals a day, I get tired and extremely moody if I miss one meal so If you going to go through with it be prepared for mood swings and being light headed, I think by the end of 3 days I would be passing out :-( |
