I’m back at it. I regularly meet with my amazing dietitian so she has given me a few meal plans to use. I find that 1400 cals daily is plenty for me. I’ve been making more of my meals and eating breakfast at home. One thing that I struggle with is that I feel I don’t get enough calories at breakfast. Breakfast is typically 300 cals or less. While I don’t get hungry between breakfast and lunch, I find myself fighting the urge to eat in the mid-morning. I’m doing great at not eating after 8pm. The meals are satisfying too. After the first week, I’ve lost 2.2lbs. That’s great! My dietician says that weight loss is a by-product of eating whole foods. Maybe it’s the outcome? What I’m struggling with is the weekends. Date nights, for example. Hubby and I went to Applebee’s last weekend. I got the 6oz sirloin plate with coleslaw and mashed potatoes. I started with a salad though. I didn’t like the coleslaw, ate 5oz of the steak, and just a few bites of the potatoes. I don’t think I made bad choices but it was hard!

One thing you could do differently (changing the lifestyle is also part of weight loss) is make date night an activity instead of a meal. Go to a festival or a concert in the park. Go to a club and dance. Day dates are great, too, as you can hike, swim, play miniature golf, shop at a farmers market. Endless possibilities that don’t involve food!

We do an activity but just start with dinner.

Congrats on the recent weight loss and all the changes you’re making, like cooking more at home. I hear you on the 300 cal breakfast. That wouldn’t be enough for me either, especially if something like 100 cal needs to go toward coffee with milk, leaving ~200 for the actual food. I’d rather scale down dinner or snacks than skimp on my breakfast

I eat between 200-300 calories for breakfast but sometimes I too get hungry midmorning. I grab something protein heavy. It will curb your hunger.

Eating 3 meals a day with generally an equal caloric and food density works for me. Not someone who snacks. But some times my body does occasionally signal it needs more fuel between meals so I do eat. I also eat my meals whether I am hungry or not because I think the body needs to be regulated and responds better having a full tank and a regular feed and digestive cycle. I rarely eat after 5:00 pm and breakfast is early usually around 5:00 a.m.

I agree with honeebuns on eating regularly whether you want or not. I used to subscribe to the idea that one should eat only when hungry but in my case that was a recipe for disaster. Diamondgirl, I also want to add I’m glad you have (and like) your nutritionist. It’s smart to have one if you’re trying to lose a lot. I’ve never had one and now I wish I had. It would have saved me a lot of time and frustration. I was so arrogant and dismissive of nutritionists in the past, I thought I knew it all anyway. Then I had to rethink everything. Things are going ok now but if I hit a wall again, you bet I’ll be sitting down with professionals to figure things out. With age comes a bit more humility…a good thing about aging for me.
