something is wrong

Okay, this started today. I have been feeling hungry all day, even when I ate I felt like I hadn't eaten in days. I don't know whats wrong. I started to water thing, but, I haven't had time to really get serious with it. I don't know whats wrong. Seems like my weight either goes up or doesn't move at all even though I am doing most things right.

You have not mentioned what you are actually doing for a diet. You said you were starting one, but what type of diet is it? Excactly what do you eat, how much, and how often? That is important.

Having said that, it is common for people to feel generally "unwell" during the first week of strict diet. Your body is going through a lot of changes, metabolic adjustments, changes in your blood glucose levels, etc... Extreme hunger, fatigue, headaches, and other symptoms are not uncommon.

In regard to your inability to lose pounds, it would really help to know the specifics of what you are eating. How many calories? What types of foods? When and where do you eat?

The truth is that the only way the body can lose pounds is if it burns more calories than it consumes. This is accomplished in several ways - 1. reducing the calorie consumption, 2. increasing excercise, and 3. altering the metabolism in some other way. Most dieters use some combination of these.

If you give me more specifics I can give you some suggestions. How old are you? What is your current height and weight? Do you excercise?

Re: something is wrong

okay honestly, I haven't really been doing much of anything. Yes, I eat yes, but for some reason I just can't get into a diet. I know loosing weight is easy you just have to be committed, but I can't get committed. I keep planning great stuff to do but I can't stick to it. I feel really horrible about myself.


Another thing that gets me is coming home and being 193 and then coming home the next day and being 197 and just staying there. I know I am not supposed to weight myself that of ten but I can't help it. People don't gain 4 pounds in a day.

Re: something is wrong

My diet

I have really let myself go over the past year, and I really want to fix that. I will try my best to reach my goal of 150 pounds before this time next year. I will try my best to eat only 1000 calories per day. I will try to exercise at least two times per day.

BREAKFAST

200 calories including milk and coffee


Lunch

350 calories

I must drink a bottle of water during lunch each day

Snack

I can have a 100 calorie snack each day

Supper

350 calories


I will not eat after 8 p.m.


This is the document that I typed up for my diet. I think I cam accomplish my goal better when I write them down.
