Hey I'm Nay, I'm 20 and a female. Been exercising for 3.4 years [I count the weeks] only 2 of thos years I've been at a gym and the other year I was exercising at home [it was before the Gym]. Now I go to the gym 4 times a week, strength train, insane cardio of 40mins running [not straight] treadmill then 20mins eliptical then 10mins stairmaster. At home on the other 3 days I ride an exercise bike and do ab workouts on a dvd I have. I'm telling you all of this to tell you I've lost 110lbs [Doesn't reflect on this site b/c I was working out before finding this site].

My concern is my eating habits, ever since a highly stressful March [I was eating donuts] I've had an issue of sticking to my diet of healthy foods & snacks. First I got a grip in late march/early April but my new friends I met in April eat unheathily which triggered me to continue to eat like I did in March [not donuts but fast food and mexican food]. I've tried really hard the rest of April and all of May to stick to a regime. I even have a 6mos plan to be myself again by Dec but 12 days into that I was handed a brownie. Of course I ate it.

Me knowing my body, it takes 3 mos for any results to show [either loss/gain] I'm now seeing March's donuts and stuff on my belly and want to stop this from happening. I basically know what to eat and what not to eat, it's just those cravings I always surrender to. Any suggestions?

If you are like me at all, I can't give in even once. As long as I stick to it, I stop craving sugar and other crap and everything is good. But if I break for even one cookie, it takes me months to stop the sugar cravings. Its tough but you have to find that desire inside yourself that never ever wants to go back to your former self and then keep that fire lit. I'm a prime example, I used fatsecret for a while a long time ago, and now I'm back because I let everything slip. Keep your chin up! You can do it! Wink

This would be a good question for the nutritionist over on the atkins.com boards. Colette Heimowitz is her name. Post your question with her name in the title and she will respond.

Weekends are hard for me too, but last weekend I made sure to come on here and record everything and that helped. I don't know if you record on weekends or not, but if you don't it may help. I ...
