What has Obama done now??
 
After 2 days of binging I am snapping out of my funk. I'll still go to IHOP but I won't pig out.

I'll be off my diet for at least a week not counting calories or weighing. I need a break. Hopefully in a week I will be ready to start on another 1200/1500 rotation. I have yet to make it through a full week on my modified 1200/1500 rotation. I have binged every time before the 1200/1500 rotation was completed, but after all is said and one I have lost over 60 lbs in 4 months and I am proud of that.
 
hey free!!!

u did great so far and i understand when u say it s hard right now ... i think we all go through that ... it s ok


all we have to do is to keep the eye on the final result. \\


And u can eat as u want ... just dont go over a certain limit cause u dont wanna have done all this hard work for nothing...

I believe in you

Sorry you were feeling down, but I'm glad you're feeling a bit better. If the 1200/1500 rotation doesn't work for you and you end up binging everytime, then why not just stick to a flat 1500? It may be more sustainable to you and you'd get better results? Just an idea :)


Every once in a while I like to go to a buffet and pig out, at least with the baby now we can't go out as often, lol.

Thanks Sweety! That means a lot to me. I gained 4 lbs. on my week off, eating and drinking whatever I wanted and not exercising at all, but now I am back on 1200/1500 and exercising 60 to 120 minutes a day so I expect that I will lose those 4 pounds in a 2 or 3 days.


Btw, I didn't have any cigars during my week off either. I think I will go smoke one now.


:cool:

Thanks Risty! I have gotten my positivity back and I am back on 1200/1500 rotation. It has worked for me. I have lost an average of 15 lbs. a month even with the occasional binge.


:cool:

Thanks Risty! The hardest part for me right now is just staying positive mentally. I just have to accept that it is going to be 8 more weeks before I can take another break from dieting if I want to achieve my goal.


:cool:
 
Yeah I know it can be hard to stay positive sometimes. Good luck with that! I'm really frustrated myself because I feel like I'll never lose the weight, not because I don't want to, or whatever but because my baby is so high maintenance that the few 30 min naps she takes in the day, I need that to... eat, go to the bathroom and just relax a bit. When she's awake all she wants is me, and I try to entertain her as much as possible without carrying her, I don't want her to have to want to be carried all day, but eventually I have to carry her around. I'm exhausted by the end of the day and I can't even fathom working out, I just want sleep.
 
U hang in there too, Risty. I blew my diet last week so I am back to 1200/1500. I am very depressed about the state of United States now. obama has turned the USA into a third world country in less than 3 years.
 
1200 & 60 minutes Exercise 910 1500 & 90 Minutes 911. I hope I can make it through an entire 1200/1500 week without screwing up again. Going to have a cigar now. I didn't smoke many for last 2 weeks. Maybe that is the problem?


:sifone:
 
My Good American Neighbors had 911 Get-Together! So went off my diet a bit but it was worth it to be in the company of Good Americans.
 
I don't live in the US but I wouldn't call it a third world country by any means!


Anyways, good luck with your diet! I have a question.... are you eating the extra calories you exercise? Just curious because say you exercise and burn 200 cals, but you only eat 1200, well you're really at 1000 cals for the day which would be too low. Or do you eat 1400 cals when you burn 200 cals to bring the total to your 1200 cal goal?

I have traveled all over the World. The US is going downhill fast. It is not anything like it was 30 years ago.


Re: My diet and exercise. I am back on the 1200/1500 diet. Yesterday I had 1200 calories and exercised for 110 minutes.
