attempt at losing weight

I've been tracking my daily food count via http://www.sparkpeople.com/ and am distressed to find out that a normal days worth of food is like WAY over 2,000 calories for me. Since my idea of working out is a "Walk Away the Pounds" DVD, clearly I am not doing heavy weight lifting or training for a marathon that would justify this level of food consumption.

Sigh.

Choices need to be made. As of right now I am hungry. Very hungry. But I've already reached my 1550 calories for the day and have no room left for even a snack. So I'm sitting here. Hungry. Daydreaming of a small chicken Parmesan sub with extra cheese. And not the chicken Parmesan sub where the chicken isn't breaded... that's crap and not a REAL chicken Parmesan sub. I want the true thing, the breaded chicken, the marinara sauce, the mozzarella cheese.. the toasted bun. I want it all. God I want it.

Damn diet. Damn it. So I'm sitting here having food porn fantasies that largely consist of mozzarella sticks and chocolate fudge cake. It's a sad day when you realize that your deepest and darkest fantasies consist of forbidden, deep friend, chocolaty food.

Update: a friend of mine just reminded me how yummy a Thanksgiving sub would be! There's one by my old work which is turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce and GRAVY on the side. God I'm actually DROOLING into my keyboard now! I may cry.

I lost 70 pounds with Weight Watchers~before I went and got pregnant. I've been very very naughty this pregnancy and eating whatever I want because I have missed so many of those types of things you mention. It will be back to WW after the baby though. It's worth it all in the end, but it's a complete and total change of lifestyle to make it work. Since I've stopped, Travis has gained a bunch of weight too. (o:
