Weight Fluctuations: Why Do They Happen?

One of the most frustrating moments for many dieters is the weekly weigh-in. Sometimes, the results on your scales seem to bear very little relation to the week you've just had. Maybe you've been really good - but not lost anything. Or you've had a couple of meals out, and eaten more than a few candy bars - and yet...

Food Finds Worse than a Fly in Your Soup!

Okay, we all know our food is full of trans-fat, high-fructose corn syrup, artificial flavors and preservatives, but it could be a WHOLE LOT worse. Like these unlucky people who found used bandages, a dirty knife, mice, stones, metal shards and even--I'm NOT joking--a condom in their food! ...

grr

GodIswithmethistime added an entry about lose weight : This is ALOT of food for me. I used to be anorexic and I am having a hard time looking at this list of food knowing that it is still only 3PM and look what I have eaten. I never used to eat more than 200-300 calories prior to 7PM. I don’t want to be the way I used to be, but I have gained 30lbs since then. I would like to lose just 8-10 lbs..and I will be happy at this weight…I am scared because I don’t have the security of knowing that I could potentially eat later, because I used up most of my calories early on….ugh stupid eating disorder thoughts. YOU SUCK . I won’t binge tonight i promise myself i wont binge tonight!!!

Mcdonalds... Grrr

Pretzel Face added an entry about Lose weight : I hate that I love Mcdonalds so much. Why does it have to taste so good?? I went in today with my friend and I only let myself order fries, which was still 375 calories (sob) But so much better than usual when I have a 600 calorie deli sandwich, with fries and a chocolate muffin.. :/ Overall I think today went pretty well until about 7pm when I always fudge up. I think its because Im not keeping busy and the chocolate cravings kick in and I try and find any food to take my mind off it.
