| Weight Loss | eating 1600 cals and gaining??? | Feb 04 2009 14:16 (UTC) |

1) I definitely don't think i've been undereating, 2) I've definitely gained some weight in muscle (i notice i'm a lot more toned but my measurements are the same 3) on days that I eat around 1200, i notice my weight finally shifts back down - is it possible that since every body is different, that 1200 - 1300 is my magic number? |

i need to eat 1800 to maintain, but i've been eating 15-1600 for about a month - so if i cut down my maintenance by 500-700 cals it ends up being 11-1300 |

I just finished reading this book and (not that i was eating a lot of fake food before) after making sure to eat real whole foods with meat as more of a side dish, I lost 2 pounds after 2 days |

thanks! the first 7 were because i went from working 9-5 with a bowl of candy on my desk to going back to grad school - so I was busier and walked around the city more, eating only at mealtime - the last 8 came from taking spinning classes 4-6 times a week and eating 12-1400 calories/day (AND making sure not to cheat!) - so now I am back to my high school weight (and a size 4) - i think the biggest weight loss boost i got was from increasing the activity and watching what i ate, but definitely not depriving myself of any type of food Good luck! |

| Weight Loss | HELP! How many calories should I be eating?? | Sep 22 2008 00:12 (UTC) |

nevermind! I found out what was wrong: 1) i was cheating and neglected to log every piece of candy that I eat throughout the day at work (my estimate was 50 it turned out to be 200 cals) and 2) it was my TOM and I usually gain 2lbs of water weight with that....SO now that I'm not cheating, I should hopefully be back to normal! |

| Weight Loss | Another plateau - help! | Sep 17 2008 02:27 (UTC) |

does that make sense that I will lose weight if I eat more than I did to go from 138-132 lbs? because 12-1300 was the magic range from 138-132 and the only thing that has changed is the frequency of my workouts. Could it be that because I work out less I'm retaining more water? |

i recently switched from yasmin (i was on it for 5 years) to yaz and coincidently gained 4 pounds - however, i think it was coincidental because I started losing weight recently and have gotten down to a lower weight than I had while taking yasmin (without trying any harder) - if you are concerned with it though, you might want to try the nuvo ring which only releases hormones where you need them rather than throughout your whole body |

good ideas thanks - no i eat real food - lean meats veggies and lots of fruit - i love the taste of real food too much to eat fat free sugar free "diet" food! |

yeah its definitely not a fear of gaining weight - i love food - the problem is that my stomach is sensitive to high-fat food - i feel so nauseated after I eat it - plus im genuinely full - i think maybe my body got used to eating 1,000 a day. anothe rproblem is i try not to have snack foods in the house b/c i could eat an entire box of wheat thins in one sitting. maybe i'll eat more sauces... |

i used to do that but i would plan my binge for days - i designated wednesday as "eat whatever you want for dinner" days but would eat half of my daily calories sunday-tuesday, and wednesday barely ate anything until dinner. It worked in terms of weight loss but it was so unhealthy (mentally too). eventually i realized i'd rather eat healthy 7 days a week than plan every bite that went into my mouth. the guilt about eating so badly was enough to make me think twice about my next binge - now i keep them to once a month (unplanned) which won't derail my diet |
