what do you guys find works the best? eating more and working out more...or eating less and working out less? because i tend to try and eat barely anything and work out LOTS and i get super fainty and nautious...any tips?

hey girls (and guys) i was just wondering if you think this is a good idea...eating ONLY breakfast and then nothing but green tea and water for the rest of the day (plus gym 4 times a week at least 500cals) I think im alot better at fasting then restricting, and at least this way i get my metabolism going in the morning and it helps keep me from feeling faint until LATE at night. any opinions or tips would be awesome guys!

ok well im starting a minimum 10 day fast today...only drinking green tea, water and diet coke to fill my stomache up! wish me luck! if anyone has any tips that would be awesome!

ok well i am now on day 2 of my fast, i plan on going to the gym again tonight and burning around 750cals. then its off to the tanning salon and home for a quick shower before my BF comes over and hangs out until we go see a movie. after the movies we're stopping by a party and then going home to go to bed since i have to get up early and go to my cousins baby shower which is a 4 hour drive away. im hoping ill be so busy that i wont even have time to think about food. im planning on weighing in tomorrow morning, i cant wait to see how much weight ive lost. Tomorrow will be day 3 of my fast so im going to eat something little just to give my metabolism a quick boost so it doesnt go into starvation mode. GO ME!

its 6pm and still had an intake of 0cals today. im punishing myself for last night. im doing this again tomorrow, and then saturday i will go back to eating a max of 500cals again...ill prolly fast again next week sometime for a couple days. i feel great so far

i messed up bad last night and binged. so pissed off, things have GOT to change. I'm fasting today to clean my system out of that sh*t. only water and green tea allowed today. tomorrow im doing my 500 calorie MAX plan along with exercise. if i dont feel really hungry tonight when i go to bed, i may fast tomorrow too. Does anybody know how long of fasting it takes to start to slow your metabolism? i dont want to slow it down but i want to fast for as long as possible without doing any damage to it.

this is the community i have been reading for months and months and i finally found out how to join! heres to getting to 105lbs by sept.2!!

k so todays the first day of my plan to get to 105lbs by sept.2. It is almost 3pm and ive had about 250cals so far today. ill have another 250 after i get off work sometime, im not really that hungry but ill eat that much just to stick to my plan and prevent a late night binge! im thinking ill have a fat free french vanilla cappuccino (100 cals MAX) and a piece of fruit or something im not sure. i wont have time to work out today cuz i have to work tonight, but ive worked out the past 4 days in a row and im going again tomorrow. hoping ill lost a pound or two by the weekend!

ok i went on a website to see how much calories i should consume to get to 105pounds by sept.2. it said to eat 918cals if i DONT exercise and 1417cals if i do. that seems like alot to me and theres also a chance of plateau. my plan is to eat up to 500cals a day (MAX) and exercise 4 days a week (burning 700cals each time) and that way i should be fine. do you guys think thats a realistic plan?

sorry i havent posted in a few days guys...im so mad at myself i didnt feel like i deserved to come back on here...but its my thinspiration, i need my LJ. i lost control and gained 3lbs back so now im 122lbs! i was 119.5 but then this weekend i just lost some of my willpower. im back on track now though, all ive had so far today is 180cals, and i only plan on eating an apple later so ill probably reach 250 cals or so... im going to calgary this weekend to see my cousins new baby and i wanna look thin because all my cousins are going to be there and they are "beautiful" and i need to be beautiful too.

im really craving a banana chocolate chip muffin! ive had 300cals today...should i give in!???

alright so i had to weigh myself this morning because i was super curious. im at 119.5lbs
thats past my STG...now i just need to get to 110 for my LTG and then 105 for my REALLY LTG haha. im not too disappointed i understand that going from 130lbs to 119.5lbs in just over a week is pretty darn good...and its probably going to slow down from now on and i cant lose motivation. just gotta be more patient!!

ok im kind of mad at myself. last night i was in a bad mood because of some personal shit and i kinda binged....but then i pretty sure i purged it all up and then some! but i still feel guilty and gross. I didnt weigh myself this morning because i was worried it wasnt going to be a pretty number even though i dont feel any larger. in a way im kind of glad it happened because it made me realize how easy it is to lose track...im not letting that happen again.

k so i weight in today at 120.0 lbs. yesterday i was at 120.5lbs so thats half a pound in one day..not bad. my total cals ended up at +35cals yesterday. i ate about 755cals but i burned 720cals at the gym. im hoping to be at least 115lbs within a week from now. hopefully i dont hit a plateau soon.

Todays a pretty good day, i had some cantaloupe and a fat free french vanilla cappuccino for breakfast (total about 150cals) and then i had some of my sacred heart medical diet soup (0 cals), some baby carrots (35 cals) and a diet coke for lunch (total about 35cals) and then a regular coffee (50 cals max) so far thats about 235calories. Im going to the gym in an hour and im going to burn around 600 cals and then ill have another cappuccino and an apple (150 cals) and perhaps a sugar free red bull (100cal max) if im weak. anyways at most my calorie intake today should be -115cals at the worst which is nice its a negative number! i weighed in this morning at 120.5 hard to believe i was 130 last week. must have been mostly water but its nice i feel so much lighter and im not stopping this until 110 at least! go me!!

Sorry i havent posted in a few days but im so ecstatic!! ive gone down from 130lbs to 121 in 3days! it must have been practically all water weight but i dont care, its a start! im so motivated now. what ive been doing is having a small breakfast in the morning like some cantaloupe or an apple, and then ill have some of the "sacred heart medical diet" soup for lunch with some baby carrots and a diet coke (totally fills you up and the only calories are in the baby carrots) and then later on in the day ill have a red bull when i get that "weak feeling" so ya im pretty motivated at the moment! im hoping to get to at least 115 by next sunday

Ok so far today all ive had is a small bowl of the sacred heart medical diet soup (it apparently adds 0 calories) and a coffee in the morning (90 cal), then an apple around 5pm (80 cal). so thats about 170cals and thats all im having today. im feeling strong just thinking of food makes me wanna be ill. i didnt even feel like the apple but i had it because i want to keep my metabolism going....but neways ill keep posting later!! GO ME!!

K well i havent eaten anything since that damn salad, ive had a greet tea diet pop and a diet coke, both have 0 cal in them. And ive chewed 2 pieces of gum...i cannot let myself have any more calories today, my limit should be 500 a day not flippin 1000!! what was i thinking earlier i dont know, im going to learn to love the feeling of being hungry and weak. i cant wait to start to see my body shrink, and finally stop being scared of stepping on the scale and being self conscious everywhere i go thinking about how fat people must think i am getting, drives me nuts when i see girls skinnier than me...i should be that girl! theres no way they eat much if they are that small, i need to be as strong as they are! and i will be. im craving chocolate sooo bad right now, and i refuse to give in. im not that girl anymore.

just at a f*ckin salad at boston pizza, not a healthy one! a chipotle chicken salad with bacon, dressing, nacho chips mixed in....like 750cal. i am so ashamed i cannot have ANYTHING else today ive already had about exactly 1000 cals today..NO MORE!!

Todays May 24/06...i am super behind on my goal to lose 20lbs by August. Never really got my motivation back until now. I am 5'5 and at a sickly 130lbs. Only 3 weeks ago i weighed 116lbs and then i just lost control. My normal weight was usually steady around 125lbs...why it went up so high i dont know but im not going to let it get to 131 or ill probably die of depression. Im planning on only eating breakfast ( a small breakfast) and then just silly little things like baby carrots and mbe the odd apple whenever i NEED something and just to keep my metabolism going. I was thinking about going onto the sacred heart diet again. thats how i got down to 116lbs last time so quickly...but i dunno its kind of hard to stick to for more than a week, and last time, i ate tons and tons after the week ended. For me..being TOO strict makes me rebel against myself and then i do more harm than good. wish me luck guys! going to be 110 at least by aug.1!!!!
