    Have you entered your goals and stats into the website and gotten a calorie goal? You can eat what you're eating now -- you just need to eat at a deficit.

    Yeah, things like Herbalife don't do a great job of showing you how to maintain your weight loss.

    But once you know how to count calories and balance your calorie consumption with your lifestyle, it's a skill you can use for life.

    Give it a try -- enter your stats and goals into MFP, get a calorie goal, and begin logging your foods.

    Not at all necessary, and I say this as someone who is currently doing intermittent fasting.

    How long have you been on this intermittent fasting? I just started 3 days ago and I really want to know how effective this diet is.

    I found the hard way that there's no miracle cure. Trying all of those I slowly ate my way up to well above 110kg. I started using MFP somewhere around 104kg and managed to get down to 96kg now (without hurting myself), with roughly another 30kg to lose.

    You'll find a lot of helpful information in this post Quite a lot of them have helped me understand why I kept on failing and how to start succeeding in getting rid of the excess weight.

    Good luck to you!

    Intermittent fasting is not a diet. It is a way to control hunger for me. It is still about CICO. IF can be personalized to your time schedule, switched up and adjusted as needed. I really like to eat all my calories late afternoon and evenings. It is not for everyone but for me it works great! I hope you find it works for you as well.

    You're eating more than you think. You're clearly not weighing your food.
