I have been eating sooo well , and workingout for the past few months , I have lost 7 lbs , I want to lose like 5 more , this past month has been hard , bc I workout like 6 days a week , and then Ill do good eating for like 4-5 days or so , then Ill have something bad , Like last night , I have done good the past 4 days , and then I was soo hungry bc I felt like I was depriving myself < I grabbed a snickers ice cream bar on my way home , got home had my dinner of skinless chicken , then waited a half and hour and was still hungry so I had some sugar freee oreos and graham cracker sticks , and now today I feel so guilty about it , and plus my weight went up 2 lbs , which cant be possible since , It was just last night I ate that bad stuff, Im sad today .

Answer 1

Don't beat yourself up for that! Everyone has their bad days (and should be entitled to them). Just get yourself back together and back into it. I have found that the weight watchers ice cream bars & Skinny Cow brands are very good and an awesome chocolate and ice cream fix. Keep snacks on hand like the 100 calorie packs. They are great, I love them.
Make sure that you are switching up your routine at the gym. Your body gets used to the program that you do everyday and you don't exert as much energy to do the same workout.


Good Luck & Keep Up the Great Work!!!!

Don't be too hard on yourself. Dieting is not an easy thing. It takes alot of will power and discipline. Some of those items that you mention that you ate have high fructose corn syrup in them. That ingredient fools your brain into thinking that you are hungry. Your body has a difficult time processing it and therefore stores it as fat. Check your sugar free oreos and see what kind of artificial sweeteners they have. If it is aspartame, throw it out! Your body is constantly trying to process the foods you eat and if it cannot break it down it, the only way to eliminate it is to hide it in fat cells. Cleanse your organs that help you process and eliminate the waste in your body(liver, bladder, kidney, and colon cleanse). This will help your body to eliminate the toxins and waste that have accumulated in your body more effeciently. Think of your body like your car. In order for it to run effecient, you must give it a tune up and flush out the fluids before you put new fluids in it. What goes in your body must come out. What doesn't come out gets stored as fat cells. Drink plenty of water(at least 64 oz daily). This will help you eliminate waste and will help you feel full. Keep up your excersise routine although if you change your diet to organic foods, eliminate high fructose corn syrup and other pesticides and toxins that are put in your neighborhood grocery store food, you will not have to work out as much and enjoy your time doing other things. This website has some interesting articles about high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated oils, and aspartame that are worth reading. There are also diet and health supplements that can help you stay healthy. I started my diet a little over 4 months ago and have lost 38 pounds and only work out 3 days a week for 45 minutes each day. I feel great and have so much more energy. Take care ofr your body. It is the only one you have. Good luck!

No candy. Sugar is addictive. If I buy a 1# bag of candy, I can't stop until it is all gone. Buy a bag of apples and oranges. Yes they are sweet, but you will only eat one at a time. I know I bought five 1# boxes of cookies and gained 10 # in two weeks. Where did it come from. Sounds like you are doing OK, Just keep trying. Good luck.

Answer 4

Have you tried green tea . I have the same problem. I try to drink allot of water every day and have 4 cups of green tea . The tea has helped me curb my hunger and it is very good for your body. If it makes you feel any better....I totally slipped on my diet to (reese peanut butter eggs) I had 2 of them !!!!! But I got back on the exercise train today and kicked butt! Do not get down on your self because Hey you've lost7 pounds ...that is SO awsome.Do me a favor and stay as far away from that scale as you can .. The scale will make you obsess. just keep up the good work .Your doing great!!!!
