Hi Jilly,

How's your tummy? I hope u feel better

Hun I think you should take the opportunity to meet with Donna, explain to her your situation. It is very much a mental thing with me too and my food issues. I have been doing good though eating higher carbs and lower fat, I mostly ran into binge problems because I was limiting carbs too much. If I eat plenty of good carbs I don't crave the sugary ones at all....but if I cut my carbs too low I get wicked bad cravings! (Something I finally figured out about myself).

04/05

~6 am cardio, 1 hour

MEAL 1: 1/2C oats, 1/2C cottage cheese, 1 ew, protein, 100g strawBERRIES

MEAL 2: 4.5oz chix, sprouties, peppers, diet yogurt, digion mustard

MEAL 3: 1C ew's, cukes

MEAL 4: 4oz sirloin, 1 ww pita, peppers, sf jello-dispite the still minor tummy ache!

MEAL 5: Trail mix

MEAL 6: Bite of cheese, veggies, diet yogurt

No binge today . Minor amounts of sugar in the t mix, over all, quite happy with my meals. I dont know about counting macros, kinda stressfull and annoying, everyone here knows proper portion sizes.

Thanks Greeky-my last meal was a diet yogurt, veggies, and a bite-JUSTA BITE, of cheese. I just read in the new oxygen cheese is one of the most addicting foods, I STRONGLY agree!

Hey Greeky-I was thinking today that fats MIGHT be making me fat....WHY? A year ago I was lean eating protein, carbs<----NOT COUNTING, and my fat was VERY low. I maintained a much lower weight than what Im at now.... Just a thought.

I agree with NT and Jen, I can honestly say I never eat cheese and dont crave it at all. Now CHOCOLATE that's a different story!! and peanut butter....

OMG Jill this is exactly what I have found to be true about my body. Low carbs really make me cranky, hungry, tired, depressed...and for me low carbs is like under 200g! I have been eating a lot more carbs lately and low fat and I am losing fat and even better - I feel great! Now don't get me wrong I am not a fat-phobe but this way of eating just makes me feel more energetic as opposed to lowering my carbs and eating more EFAs. I will have some PB every few days but the rest of my fat is from the lean proteins and good carbs.

I will be carb depleting though in a couple weeks for the contest though.

Im really trying to watch my fats Stacey-although I did have a bite of a detour bar....and a couple of gummie candies just a few minutes ago. I always screw up! Atleast I stopped after 3 that is the upside I guess. CONTROL.
