    just to clarify... you dont believe that people need food to survive?
    Yes real talk.

    i dont even know what that means....
    You said i dont think food is neaded for survival right??? I said yes. But listen to me people i dont think food is beneficial because i dont think its beneficial. The only reason why i eat is because in order for me to stay alive. AGAIN!!! in order for me to stay alive.. I have to keep feeding this body to live (when it dosent deserve food) like you people said. But that dont mean i love food. I HATE IT WITH MY SOUL, HEART, MIND, EVERYTHING!!! AGAIN EVERYTHING! otherwise i wouldnt eat if there was a another way for me to survive.

    you do know you just contradicted yourself in the space of those 6 lines...?

    and honestly, you need to speak to a professional if you dont think your body deserves food.

    In any case, OP, you really need to get some professional help and do a little reading up on how the human body works.
    Listen like i said bump science and how the human body works give me proof that we have to eat to live. Now if you dont mind please tell me how to fix my leptin im bout to go insane over here. I could really use your help.

    How do you know your leptin needs fixing? Did you have it tested through blood work?

    Yeh, I think the help we're offering you is that you go and speak to a professional about your diet. This kind of thread is well beyond the realms of general public MFP talk and it's getting to sound quite a serious issue. If anything, a lot of people in this thread are here because they love food too much - like me! To be exchanging conversation with someone who has a passionate disliking for food and just sees it as something that is needed to survive despite the hatred, is strange for us all, and it's quite a serious psychological issue. The actual thread subject has become completely irrelevant.

    Again stop trying to tell me about my situation. I hate food and i dont give a flip about what anybody say. The only reason why i came here so i can get help with my body making me crave things thus stalling my weight loss. Which is pissing me off because my weight loss slowed.

    No but i read the symptoms of low leptin and i have all of them. Also again when i first started cutting this wasnt happening and i am a person with alot of willpower. But my body is taking my will strength away by making me crave which i hate. Didnt you read where i said i been cutting 10 months straight and working out alot???

    I think we're long past anyone being able to give you any advice you're likely to take. My post doesn't tell you to do anything. It suggests you get professional help, like many other posts on here. They may be able to help with your cravings. But if we all had a miracle cure for that none of us would be fat!

    Sorry, enough already. This is typical teenager attitude. I know, because I have two of them. You do not know everything. Some of us on here have been doing this for longer than you have been alive and in some cases double the number of years you have been alive. So get over yourself. Everyone is trying to help you but you refuse to listen.

    Get some professional help. Most of us are just a bunch of people that love food and got fat and are learning how to lose weight and keep it off while still loving food. You cannot live life with an unhealthy relationship with food.

    I'm going to try to take your request seriously....

    Try this site for some leptin changes: http://wellnessmama.com/5356/fix-your-leptin/

    Also, the more you stress about food vs cravings vs exercise, the less likely you'll be able to change your leptin levels. Honestly, the more you work out (workouts add stress to the body) and the more you defy your craving for sustenance (also adds stress to the body), the more likely your leptin levels will resist change. If you truly don't "like" food, then focus your sustenance intake on those foods packed with protein and healthy fats (nuts, lean meats....) Also, keep this in mind: the changes you were able to accomplish at 228 pounds are significantly different than what you can expect at 158 pounds.

    On another serious point, talk to a professional to seek advice specifically related to your body -- talk to a personal trainer about getting the most out of your workouts to achieve a less than 20% bf if that is your goal. Talk to a nutritionist about how to provide healthy nutrition to keep your body functioning well (this may mean a change in your macros). Talk to you physician to be certain there isn't another hormone issue that is preventing you from achieving your goals. At the same time, if these PROFESSIONALS give advice, then be ready to actually try it rather than disregard it because you think you know better.

    OP is looking to increase leptin, not reduce it.

    You people man.... didnt i just say my body is craving not me i can give a care less if i eat or not but let me ask you a question since everybodys a know it all. I going to use the answers you gave me. You said i hate food but craving. I didnt say i was (AGAIN I) i said my body and psychological mind is making me crave. But im not hungry my body is because i lost weight and my bf is not below 20% and my weight loss slowed thus making me crave. All im asking how do i boost my weight loss back up to lose the rest of this fat and to stop craving because once i hit my lean body mass im not eating no food like i was ever again im going to eat little.

    Besides your body and psychology, what else is there?

    Until you stop thinking that food is evil, I'm not sure how you are going to solve your problem. I remember your posts from last week as well. Your body fat is going to drop in time once you continue to do the right things to gain strength, burn fat, and eat at the point that your body doesn't need to store fat. Starting different threads isn't going to help you solve the same problem.
