I think that too Yve, but im eating a lot more than other November ladies and they are losing it at a nice rate, I've put on 10lbs practically overnight. Don't know what's going on with my body!

I think that too Yve, but im eating a lot more than other November ladies and they are losing it at a nice rate, I've put on 10lbs practically overnight. Don't know what's going on with my body!

BUT, you are heavier than them to start with! Your bmr, like mine will be much higher as our larger bodies need more cals just to power the basic functions, of which breaking down fat is not!

 

[pooh71]

Still feeling RIDICULOUSLY hungry. Im 100% sure its because I am due on, but its a bit alarming. B: Warburton thin lf cheese and bacon toastie. S: 0% fat greek yogurt with berry compote. L: 1/2 tin tuna mixed with light mayo with salad. S: 1/3 chocolate brownie. D: Chicken, bacon and mushroom sauce with pasta. S: Apple and 2 babybel.

Me too Fiona! I think it's the weather your menus are lovely though. Nice variety in them. I need to get more variety in as I seem to go for the same things everyday at the mo which Im finding boring, then end up seeing what else there is when I'm nibbly! I've decided today will be a good day.

I agree with Yve Ceecie, please don't compare to others. I could (still can) eat so much more than others at the same stage due to my size. Always have done, and I've still lost! If you think, even 2000 cals is far less than we had before! I try to stay around 1400-1600 if I can, but I'm moving more towards not counting cals and eating what I'm comfortable with so I don't become obsessive over it. I just need to control my nibbles in between! Keep at it chuck x

I know its hard, but please dont worry. Its not fat weight, its water weight. Its IMPOSSIBLE to put that kind of weight on and it be fat mass.

We all know how difficult it is not too compare, but I promise - we all loose in our own time. But I am also someone who has always been able to eat more, and its a blessing in disguise. Nutritionally you are getting a really good variety, so its good for your overall health. I have not doubt that you are not overeating. It may be worth calculating your BMR/RMR and comparing it against or kcal intake. I have always done that. I currently eat about 750 kcals under a day, so that should equate to 1.5 lbs a week. But because bodies are funny things, I dont loose for ages, then loose 3 or 4 weeks worth in one go.

Just keep plodding on, it will be fine. We are all playing the long game here
