Does anyone else not enjoy cooking as much as I do?

    I've been doing this for a few weeks and I haven't lost anything, as usual. I've actually gained which is what happens when I exercise. So frustrating! I know I shouldn't always go by the scale but still....

    That is frustrating. If you just started or increased exercise, you may have some water retention that can mask weight loss for a few weeks. Also, exercise can make people hungrier and they eat more without thinking about it. If you feel like you can't stick to the calories, you may want to use a smaller deficit or stick to lighter exercise for a while. You don't have to overhaul everything at once!

    I will cook if something sounds good but to cook means to me dirty dishes and clean up kitchen....YUCK! Spent years cooking for family so now that everyone is grown and gone why dirty the kitchen?!
    Instant pot is a dream appliance!
    5 ingredient recipes can work.
    But....give me toast with mashed avocado or a bowl of cheerios.....no clean up...Woo Hoo!
