Hi all!
I know it's not the CICO group but the post will not be about it directly.
I read a post earlier this morning about why calorie counting really matters. And it is. Here is why:
I thought I know the calories of every food I consume because I mostly consume the same everyday.
But before you think it will be the same "I consumed much more than I thought" it won't. Apparently I thought I eat a lot and I felt miserable AND hungry all the time in the past two weeks. And since I thought I ate a ton I felt like failing this diet thing again. How could I eat so much calories (in my head) and still be hungry?
So I failed. Yes. My past week was more than a cheat meal, I didn't drink enough, I ate sweets, potatoes, everything I usually don't. Because I was like I can't maintain that feckin' diet, why would I try? I'm always craving and hungry and mostly hangry all the time. Also I lost 1,5 lbs in a month and gained it back. All of it. Before I started to eat trash again. (Probably my period had it's own effects bu still).
So after reading that post today I was like: okay, stop this. Even if I just maintain my weight I still need to get back on track. So I counted my breakfast and what I thought would have 30-40 g of ch solely in the vegetables it was just 2-3 g. I could eat more of them in the past week to feel fuller. Also my whole breakfast was about 280 calories.
So apparently I fucked up myself with thinking I eat so much and at the same time I was hungry for a reason, I didn't even eat my 1200 calories so after weeks I binged so hard for a week.
I need to get back on track and now I know about one more potential mistake I can make.
