Mindfulness

Hi 👋
Hi I’m Helen, I’m hoping to lose 140 lbs, but I have MS and my ability to exercise is limited, so I guess my calorie deficit will be 1,200 per day. I have recently taken up Qi Gong and do a little yoga. I put on weight over the past year or two and can feel it becoming a problem if I don’t keep it in check now. Cravings…
Restarting the Fitness Journey
Hello, I moved abroad during the height of covid in 2020 and put on about 30 pounds as a result of depression and social isolation in a new environment. Of course, food was one delivery order away so the pounds piled on. Now that I'm settled in and addressing my mental health, I've restarted the fitness journey and hope to…
We are all psychically capable! Experiences to share?
I know this is very off topic, but this is a thread for different off topics & I had a feeling/urge to post this so I thought why not! We all were born with psychic capability whether folks acknowledge or not is another thing. I’m have experienced so many spiritual or psychic things unintentionally and didn’t even realize…

Binge eating
Any tips or advice to avoid binge eating ? I do indulge in small treats that fit my calories most days, but there’s always that one day where I go nuts, realize what I did, and get upset with myself . It’s slowing my progress from losing 1lb a week to half a pound or to even no weight loss. It’s been a month of this…

What do you eat/drink while cooking dinner?
What do you eat while you cook dinner or do you manage not to snack/pick the entire time you're in the kitchen? Painting the picture: between 5-530pm when my workday is over, my spouse is picking up kids, and I have 30 minutes of silence to unwind and cook dinner has become a daily pain point. I have a mid-afternoon snack…

Craving/feeling hungry
I just got back into cutting calories and exercising. I had used MyFitnessPal previously and lost some weight (about 40 pounds) but have gained it all back plus some. This time around I am more hungry even after meals or a healthy snack of fruit or raw veggies. Any ideas on how to curb that and resist the urge to snack.
Mindful Eating, Exercise and Meditation and still not losing weight.
I've been tracking calories, meditating and exercising for over a month now. I've only maintained my weight. I'm not trying to lose much but it's frustrating. Anyone else have the same issue.

I have decided to try loosing weight again, and this time I am wanting to become more involved and focus on this goal as seriously as I take my job, and academics. So I decided to set…
INTRODUCTION
Originally into bodybuilding then switched to triathlons and finally the Iron Man before being struck with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. After much stress, self doubt and failures I’ve decided that though exercise, complicated as it is for me, it’s time to take back control of my life from this disease inch by inch. Could…
Deja vu with a touch of evolution
I originally was using MyFitnessPal back in 2019 and lost around 28 or so pounds after having our third baby in Aug of 2018. After going back and forth about my weight and what I was going to do about it, I finally put my dang foot down and took a stand!!! :) I am targeting the loss of 65 pounds and am being generous with…

Does anyone else experience mental struggles in intermittent fasting or ADF
Intermittent fasting is seemingly as simple as a diet plan can get: Eat. Stop eating. Eat again. So, why all the mental struggle around eating or not eating within a short window? For me, there are two distinct struggles. 1) Calming myself that I'm not causing any damage from loss of nutrients during the fast. 2) Calming…
