Anybody ever feel like they cheated but didn't?

  • I am on WW and only ate my allotted points today, but I'm so full I feel like I MUST have cheated. I keep going over what I ate in my head to see if I calculated my points wrong, but I know I didn't. I guess I just have this feeling that if I'm dieting I should feel deprived. Weird!
  • i feel that way often. and then i never know if im doing it right or not.
  • I did that just today! I am 500 cals under today! I keep thinking I ate some more stuff, but I didn't! And I'm not really hungry... But i'll probably eat a little something in a bit, I don't want to stay too low!

    But I know what you mean... some days are just weird!
  • Yes, sometimes I overestimate my calories and i'm pleasantly surprised. Sometimes I have the black hole problem......lol
  • It's such a pleasure when you can get over feeling guilty about being satisfied. Sometimes it just takes a little time.
  • I know how you feel. It reminds me of all of those diet commercials where people say they're dieting and they don't feel deprived, etc. I always think to myself, "Me too! And I didn't have to pay an extra $49.99 a month to do it!"
  • oh man, I WISH I had that problem! I eat all my calories and am still like "wat else can I have???"
  • I'm glad to see that so many people can relate!

    But I also have the opposite problem too--sometimes I eat all my points for the day and am still ravishingly hungry!
  • I have totally had that feeling too i think its due in part to me thinking healthy foods arent as good as greasy fast food lol. But now I look at a grapefruit and my mouth waters lol, don't get me wrong, those mcdonalds commercials still get to me, and occasionally i have to change the channel lol.
  • That's a great thing, Peatrix! That means you must be having filling foods instead of junk. I know when I first started, I struggled so much to get in all my daily points. I was just so full I couldn't eat any more points. It's better now though.
  • My fav treat is frozen chocolate cool whip but sometimes when I'm eating it out of the carton with a spoon in the kitchen I feel like I'm eating ice cream and I freeze for a second because I think 'oh man, I'm gonna regret this.'

    Then I realize, oh, it's just a few carbs.

    I've been like that lately. I eat all of my calories or close to it and I'm still wanting more. I liked it better when I first started because it wasn't so hard then!
  • Yeah, so just yesterday I started this thread, but TODAY was a mcuh different story! Lol! I ate all my points at the beginning of the day and was not satisfied at all. Luckily, it was the start of a new week for me at WW so I had all my weekly points to use and didn't go off plan. I didn't plan on using them, but ended up using a third. Just one of those days!
