I weigh 174 pounds. Yesterday, I was only able to consume 2100 calories. I could not eat anymore. I even had french toast, and spaghetti with a couple meatballs yesterday. I even added a slice of cheese to my turkey burger. I am not snacking as much as I should be.
Also it could be the hot weather. I do not have any A/C, so I have been sweating allot during the day, and even while sleeping. It has been up to 107 degrees here in Tucson a few times. I just read that exercising in hot weather burns more calories. So I am getting it both ways. However, my weight is remaining stable and even has gained up to a couple pounds. I find this interesting. Maybe I can lower my baseline calorie intake to something like 2200 calories for the summer. I am getting real tired of sweating indoors during the day and night! I will post yesterdays food diary today.
BTW I have been going through a pretty bad episode of depression that comes in waves. I am sure this is having some effect on my appetite.
