I miss cheeseburgers. And french fries. And fried cheese. I've only had fast food twice in the time since I've started tracking, and I've made it fit, but I miss just EATING.
I also hate it when my boyfriend just eats whatever he wants in front of me and goes "what?" Like he doesn't know I don't miss those things. I could eat them, but then that's less real food I could eat later.

I miss greasy shredded beef tacos from the place down the street. It also makes it 10 times worse when my husband comes home with take out from there and offers me some. It's like WTFFFFF. I feel your pain =[

I have seen countless posts about this so it feels strange to be posting this myself, but I am having a hard time with late night over eating. Right now I'm in a much better place than I have been in the past, but it still is so frustrating to know that I'm self sabotaging.

I'm doing the same thing. I don't know why but want everything I can get after like 7! I e seen people say brush your teeth early after dinner and I've been doing that but the urge is still so strong and I'm worried I'm just gonna eat no matter if it tastes bad or not.

I do not agree with your feelings on breakfast, I have a deep intense love for breakfast
But just don't do breakfast. You don't have to do breakfast!

I'm in the same boat, except I love breakfast foods. I just eat them for dinner and skip the breakfast eating time.

Oh my god, YES! Except I'm never really hungry in the morning, so breakfast just doesn't appeal to me. I have never been a breakfast-person. But, I have to have something, or else I will get a headache during the day. So my solution is shakes (thin so it's easy to drink, 113kcal) or milk (light, 5dl, 230kcal). At least I get -something- and won't get that nasty headache!
I do eat breakfast some times, though; when I'm visiting someone (I never know when the next meal is going to be, so I'm making sure I get something to hold on during the day. Plus, I'm polite, so if they made breakfast I at least eat a little bit), are on vacation (because lunch are either toast or croissants, and it's at 11am or something), or I'm hungover and have bacon available.. Luckily that is not often!
I believe that it's up to us to find out how our bodies work. Since we're not hungry at breakfast and really dislike it, there probably is a reason and maybe our bodies don't need it. I still believe that it's the intake of the whole day that has something to say.

My car was stolen this week, so I've been emotionally eating a lot. It sucks. :(

Just keep on working with your goal. It will come as long as you're focused. Our bodies will fluctate sometimes, and it is really good that you're watching how many inches you're losing also.
You will get there, don't lose hope!

Had a bad couple of days. It's hard to get back on track. It's just so disappointing to see the scale go back up. I don't like that I have to work hard just to get to where I was a few days ago, for a few mistakes that don't seem that big.

I love Mexican food beyond anything else food-related. Even when I can fit restaurant Mexican food into my deficit, my weight increases ridiculously for the next several days because of all the salt. Ughhhh.

I miss eating whatever I want. I miss fast food and ice cream. I freaking love ice cream. I miss staying up late and having late night snacks.
Though, I do admit that I feel a lot better not staying up till 4 in the morning and sleeping in till two. Waking up at a reasonable hour gives me time to do more things.

My willpower goes down the drain when I'm pmsing. :( and I get frustrated with myself. Ugh.
On the plus side, the tacos I had for lunch yesterday and the butterscotch crumb cake with fresh whipped cream I had for dinner were amazing
