urrgghhhh..... i keep yoyoing around this weight and its starting to do my head in!!! i'm up one whole kilo over the weekend :0( ok so i know my food choices wernt great but i still had a decent calorie defecit. i know my registration of offods is acurate as i'm anal about the weighing and so forth so much so that i'm rounding up just in case.
looking over my food choices i think it must be something to do with my macros my carbs are just way too high and my protein way too low i need to start thinking about these a little more and planning my meals a little better. i know i'm also going to have to change my exercise routine but i keep putting this off i HATE the gym and until i can turn this loathing around there is no point in starting it as i know i will not keep it up just need to find something to get me motivated...Any ideas?????

I hate the gym too and would love to go more but can't. I think it's mostly what you eat and from what I'm reading that's true. I'm not saying stop exercising because it is so good for your heart, muscles, and bones but I really think it's 80% food choices. That is good news!!

I have some ideas, thank you for making me your buddy! I means i am now allowed to kick your butt once in a while (*grin*)
1. first change internal dialog, stop saying i can't, stop saying i hate. Start thinking in solutions!
2. If you know what is wrong with your diet, what is keeping you from making better choices? forget about carbs, just up the protein, lower fat (not too low, and use healthy fats), think about fiber, and then calculate how much calories you can have in a day, and fill the calories up with the carbs... Like Kingkeld always sais it's not rocket science...
3. The exercise WILL become easier, trust me! You just have to man up and keep doing the damned stuff untill it does. I now even start to like it at times, and miss going if i skip a day. Me, an obese exercise hater for over 40 years!!! If I can learn to like it, anybody can.
i hope this helps... if not, sorry for kicking you.
maud.

Dark green vegetables are great for protein and are low calories! Broccoli, spinach, etc. Try adding some nuts or raisins to your breakfast/snack a well for extra protein.
If you've gained 1 kilo over the weekend, you're probablly carrying quite a bit of water weight - maybe too much salt or something like that in your diet! Have some detoxifying teas like green tea, fennel tea, cayenne pepper and lemon tea...
For motivation - I've heard doing even 15 minutes of exercise in the morning before eating or doing anything can give you a lot of energy throughout the da. and is psychologically proven to make you happier!
Personally I do 1 hour of intense yoga a day, because for me it is a pleasure and a challenge. Find something that really feels good for your mind and body - and stick with it!
