one word SODIUM!. more food usually equals more sodium.. check your sodium intake and the pounds will magically drop ;) |

Hey everybody. My apologizes for not updating much latley. My eating disorder took a huge toll on my these past 3 weeks, and I've managed to jump up to 152 lbs.. :/ I promised my self for the last and final time to stop this. I've been constantly neglecting this site because of the disorder, but I am back now. With this friday's weigh in, I will update everything.
Glad to see everyone is doing good though! |

Yes! Finally Edited the posts of the last two weigh ins :) hmm starting next week, I'm going to post last weigh in and total weight lost so far on this challenge.
GREAT JOB EVERYBODY!...as for me? I've been binge free for 6 days so far. That's the longest I've gone since summer back when i was 125 lbs. :) |

| Weight Loss | 1200 cals...Is this right? | Jan 27 2008 16:27 (UTC) |

| Somewhat similar thing happened to me, but I only gained 3 lbs ish and was stuck on that forever. Looking back, I'm SURE it was my sodium intake. When some people increase theircal intake, sodium intake goes up to. your body might react to excess sodium and store all the extra water. so try reducing your sodium intake to under 2000ish, and drink some extra water.
good luck! |

| Weight Loss | Does inline skating really burn 700 something calories in just one hour? Can that be accurate? | Jan 26 2008 03:28 (UTC) |
|
| CCs numbers are always off, and overestimated. For one hour inline-skating.. I'd estimate around 350-400 calories tops. | |||
| Foods | I'm at 9.1% protein for the day that's not enough right? | Jan 25 2008 21:52 (UTC) |
|
try edanames. (soybeans) they have 8 g of protein per half cup of beans(just the stuff inside though) and they're delicious! mushrooms have protein too.. fage 0% greek yogurt has 20 g of protein per 120 calories..

Day 2: Binge Free! Wooh. It's so hard for me at night, because I could eat loads of food and still not be satisfied ( due to my ex-late night bingeing galore). I could eat an apple for breakfast, and lunch and feel full but dinner time it's really hard. But i resisted once again.. |

Original Post by stretchd1: actuallyyy....it's quite easy. just gotta find how to work your way around the food. i was at high sodium for about a month, which caused me to not lose a single pound.
watch out if you see that you're not losing anything, cut the sodium down. if you're not trying to lose, have good blood pressure(which you do), and drink plenty of water(which you say you do), then you`re fine :) |

| hun, the weight youve lost is probably just temporary weight. it's called water weight. eat up to 1200 calories a day, because thats at least what your body needs to function. trust me if you eat at least 1200 cal per day, you're body will lose fat instead of the muscle and water you're loosing right now. | |||

| Browneyes, you have you use the about.com version of cc rather then the classic version to quote people. Go to cc.about.com. (this is how i think its done..never learned how to do it on the classic) | |||

i weighed in at 145.9 today. I know its all the retention from the sodium and food that i ate, and that most of it will go away. but still its not nice to see the scale high. anyways ill update the first post later tonight, to remove some of the people that arnt posting at all, and add the weight! |

Original Post by koilady63: Congrats hun, thats a big accomplishment!
I think what triggers the bingeing is that if I have one bite of a "bad" thing, then I start to "punish" myself for eating that and continue to eat more and more.. :( |

| Weight Loss | I need help. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. | Jan 11 2008 20:03 (UTC) |
|
| are you getting enough sleep? that is also a factor in some cases. what exactly is your sodium intake? even one day of going over the salt intake can cause water retention. also..seems like you might be gaining some muscle mass! | |||

Hmm if thats just an average day of the week for you, then id say you burn 2500 cal Easily per day.. maybe even more. 1400-1600 hundred looks good for a 1000 cal deficit per day equaling to about 2 lbs per week lost and 10 lbs per month. But since you said you lost 4 lbs last month, that probably means that you burn more then 2500 cal and your deficit is too high. Try upping your cals by 200-300 see if that works better.
btw im a soccer chick too, so high five to that! |

| just try to get any sort of exercise in your day. any.. even a brisk 10 minute walk will do. it's a great way to start the mornings, because then you have the whole day ahead of you. I'm so glad i started this challenge. it was really the motivator i need to stop the binge-eating. I have not binge-ate since last saturday. over-indulged, maybe yes, but its a whole step up from the binge-eating. I've been at or under my calorie-intake since last saturday. wooh. thank you guys! | |||
| Weight Loss | Is counting calories REALLY worth it? | Jan 11 2008 00:52 (UTC) |
3 |
| Backtracking to about 6 months ago, i was OCD about calorie-counting. I wrote down everysingle thing i took in and would dream about the foods that i was going to prepare next day. My day was built aroudn the times i had to eat. It was pretty bad for about a month since I was determined to break out of the plateu.
I promised myself I would never go back to being like that. Now, my plan is calorie-count 5 days a week, log in most of the things i eat. Saturdays and Sundays I'd just practice portion control. This has become easier for me because the 5 days i go to school, and am usually bored in class, so i log in my food using my home :D
But hey, if you believe you can eat healthy and exercise and lose weight.. go right ahead! just now that in the end, its the numbers that count =] |

| Sure it is.. it all depends on how you look at it. If you've done good the whole week, a cheat day is good to get in a bit of the foods that you've missed out on. Just make sure to be right around maitenence calories. | |||
