Menus and Miles Wed. June 8th
Morning Everyone! I haven't posted on fitday.com for awhile so I decided yesterday that I should see what my totals were and I was shocked! Not because they were to high but because they were too low!!! I was under 1000 calories which is about 600 calories less then I was getting in when I was maintaining my desired weight. About 4 pounds have creeped on and I know some of it is summer swelling but I'm sure the other part of it is from not eating enough...something I have told other people they should do "you have to eat to lose weight".
During the honeymoon period "Bad" carbs will slow down our losing but most of the time we don't realize thats even happening because we are still losing and we "think" we are getting away with it, but worse than that, "Bad Carbs" lead to bad habits and then when we get to maintenance we start gaining.

Some things just can't come into the house (or to work for me) cuz they have to be eaten until they are gone. For me it was peanut butter melt aways and NAS choco-dipped ice cream bars (this past week, they have since been eaten or trashed since I learned my lesson) I told my husband to not let me buy those evil things (he shops with me) and he promised to help. He loves my new body as much as I do :)
if i'm totally off base, ignore me, just wanted to share what i learned in case it might help you :)
have a great day!

I do fine during the day, its at night when I sit down on the couch and watch TV. Its just old habits creeping back in. I won't totally deprive myself but will be much more cognizant of what I do put in my mouth.
tonight I want to make a chocolately protein drink with SF pudding - and i may put a splash of SF peanut butter syrup in it. I've not made one before and have heard others talk about it and it sounds SO yummy. That will fill me up, give me my extra protein and not give me the empty calories I've been taking in with the beer and wheat thins. Its just changing my eating habits and holding myself accountable.
Thanks for your input. I do know what you mean by starving yourself then overeating later cause you're just hungry. I just do it because I'm bored.

do the ww strawberry chocolate dipped bars become a compulsive eat for you? might try them if you say you can stop after one... then again might not... ice cream is one of my weaknesses. I'm working on it though.
I bought this coconut milk based ice cream (cookie dough in flavor) because 1- it comes in a pint so if i over eat once it's over with anyway, 2- because i am trying really hard to overcome my crack i mean ice cream addiction and learn moderation. it is soooo good that i have been able to curb my eating of it since i want to savor every bite :)

I LOVE bbq soy crisps!! Glad to spread the joy!!
So far I have been good with only having one ice cream bar, they are very yummy and I can see wanting another one but so far I haven't, so I think it's ok. For me it was fig newtons this last week... even had more than one package a couple times and gave myself a belly ache...did it stop me the next day...NO! Yeah, we are all human and like you said as long as we recognize it and correct it...
I was glad to have found the WW and carbsmart bars, b/c esp during the summer when everyone else is having ice cream, I can feel normal!
