WOw nice to see that calorie increase... are you feeling any different by eating more nowadays?? Just curious because I know I saw an increase in my workouts after adding some more food

Fantastic progress Roons, though honestly, you were so tiny anyway! I can't believe the change! Just shows what hard work and consistency can do

I can’t specifically pinpoint any difference to my workouts because I’ve just been getting stronger over time, but I will say the increased food intake has put me in a generally better mood overall…which makes me more motivated if that makes sense. I’ve also discovered some food combos that fill me up better or hit my comfort spot. e.g. 1 tbsp of peanut butter in the morning does wonders in suppressing my appetite and getting me through the morning. My Ezekiel bread slice with 1 laughing cow light wedge cheese is my comfort food that totally hits the spot, much like real bread and butter

Thanks, Merm! Being tiny is not the same as being lean or taut sadly – in fact, sometimes I think I face a harder battle because of my smaller frame and body fat piling on in very specific areas only. I still have a long road ahead of me to lean out my lower body the way I want. But I am hopeful <fingers crossed>

So, is eating that many calories hard mentally? I'm always so scared of eating more!

No, it hasn't been too hard for me. It's only really been a 200-350 calorie jump for me at most, so it hasn't been a terribly huge adjustment. I'm feeling a lot more satiated and happier with the food choices I'm able to make now. My body seems to appreciate it more, as does my head.

I suggest making the progression to eating more somewhat gradual and it won't be that scary - increase by 200-300 cals/day for a while, see how your body responds and then go accordingly from there.

Eating more has been easy after my glutton-filled break. I'm just scared I'll get fat. Your pics and journal have definitely made me feel more at ease, though! Thank you!

Glad you C the difference with the calorie increase, and are mentally and physically on! I knew the other cals were 2 low by just your posts, and binge's.
Will2B it is some of a mental adjustment. I don't actually think about it any more. Just eat what's on the plan. I know SBT had an issue at first with upping her cals and decreasing her cardio. Like Roony said.. take it a day by day and you will see the difference. Like SBT who upped cals, decreased cardio, and also decreased body fat... So it's all trial and error.
Ohh and about that fit camp thing bring it on!!! Did I ever mention I almost became a drill instructor for basic training when I was in the military LOL
