So remember how a lost 30 pounds? Remember how I promised myself I wouldn't gain anything when I got married? Okay you probably don't remember that promise but I do. Well, I broke that promise. I'm ashamed to say I have gained some weight. I'd prefer not to tell you the number, just know that I am sad. I am not far from what I weighed after losing 30 pounds but still.

The point of this post is not to whine and complain (like unfortunately many of my posts have been). The point is to get some advice. We got an iPod touch (YAY) and I got this app (thank you Steph) called My Fitness Pal. Well, I entered in all my information and it told me my net calories a day should be 1340. I have not yet found time to get back into a workout routine yet, so right now I am trying to only eat 1340 calories a day. I am STARVING all the time! Seriously, I eat a pretty good balanced meal: protein, fruits, veggies (sometimes), limited bread, etc. and I try to eat every couple hours but like 30 minutes to an hour after I eat, I'm starving again. Not just a little hungry, like painfully hungry. My question to all of you (please help) is: is this healthy???? 1340 calories seems like a super small amount to me. When I was working out really hard I was eating a lot more and still losing weight. I know my ability to eat more came from the calories I burned working out, but I'm just confused. I'm confused about if it is healthy for me to eat such a small amount of calories a day. Should I listen to my body and eat more? Or should I listen to this little app telling me to starve myself?

I always thought it would be easy for me to lose weight again after I figured out my system from before. But it's reeeaaaly hard. I can't figure out just what I did before. I know I worked out a TON but I'm either too busy or not motivated. I'd really love any and all advice, even if it's small. Thank you. :)
