Did I ruin my whole weight loss diet with this food..? I feel like crying please help and be honest?
Okay. So I’m 15, 5’3 and I started dieting when I am 120 lbs. I’ve been on a very good, healthy diet for about a week now, I probably have lost about 2 pounds. So I’m probably around 118 now?
Anyways. So I’ve been doing SO good. Today I went to my friends birthday party, not to mention it is the first day of my period (MASS CRAVINGS). She had SO MUCH GOOD FOOD! lol. She had stuff like chips and dip, burgers, fries, fruit salad, cake, cookies, brownies, etc.. ! Urgh!
As you know, I am on the first day of my period and my cramps were kinda bad. This also drove me to have really terrible cravings, to the point where I was obsessed with satisfying my cravings! I wanted it then and there. So, I gave in at the birthday party. I had about everything there. I’m planning to bounce back to my regular diet tommorrow, maybe start off kinda easy to get back into the groove. I was literally grazing on everything there. xD Will this make me gain a pound, even if I go back to my usual diet?
By the way, I am going to seriously be good about everything once I bounce back into the groove again. I just want to lose 10 lbs to get to 110 lbs. =/
Will this throw me off track?
Come on, you know how it is.. xD Your period can drive you nuts with cravings, especially with your favorite foods laid out in front of you! At parties, everyone eats and has a good time.. Which is what I did. ;_;
I CANT STOP EATING TODAY. IS THIS FROM MY PERIOD? UGHH!

Don’t stress about it. It was one day of binging.
And what is your weight loss goal? The healthy weight for you at your age and height is 115. Losing two pounds a week until you plateau is about right, but be wary of the scale, a normal person’s weight changes throughout the day depending on food and water weight, so expect to see fluctuation.
Way to be healthy, but you are already thin, so don’t get obsessed with it. You are allowed to have junk food, just do it spareingly. (Like only at parties!)

David asks…
How to easily add variety in my diet?
I have trouble having a variety of food / meals in my diet. I seem to eat the same thing all the time and I feel it is unhealthy.
What is an easy way to introduce variety into a diet? I don’t mean a weight loss diet, I just mean a normal balanced diet.

I try to cook with fresh local ingredients if I can find them. When I go to the market (Currently Costa Rica), I buy lots of all sorts of things with no real plan on what I will be preparing.
Later on, I look at everything that I have, and wait for inspiration to strike.
This is by no means an economical way to shop, it can get pretty spendy depending on where you live. But buying single ingredients and then playing in the kitchen keeps my diet diverse, and cooking interesting.
For lunch yesterday I made roasted red peppers and onion with seared pork and pineapple. It was a departure on the Hawaiian thing. It was a nice snack.
I have no idea what I will eat today, I’m stocked to the rafters with everything I could find at the market. The other day I made a simple marinara with fresh basil, tomatoes, and extra virgin olive oil, and then had mango crepes for desert. Those were just the ingredients that I felt like eating at the time.
Many times I do not see any protein that looks interesting, so I go nearly vegetarian for a week.
Anyhow, my advice is to buy the best ingredients that your pocketbook will allow you to get, and then figure out what to do with it later.
