  • I don't keep junk food in the house at all. I also withheld any pasta or bread for about 3 months. I have been VERY SLOWLY incorporating healthy amounts of grains, pasta, and breads back into my diet. Of course when I say those terms I mean whole wheats and grains, also things like quinoa and the like. I actually don't…

  • Yes, you certainly can lose weight without the exercise component. It all comes down to basic math, CICO or calories in, calories out. Does exercise help you burn more calories in a day, sure....but it isn't the only way. Make sure your settings are reflecting your activity level.

  • I have a hard time eating all those back as well. So, instead, I find a happy medium and eat back about half of those calories to give not only my anxiety about over eating to rest, but also to help curb any extra hunger I might feel. It might not work for you, but it has for me! Good Luck!

  • Hi there! Officially diagnosed with OSFED a few months ago. If you find a group I'd love to be a part of it, I haven't seen any here. If you haven't been to see a professional I HIGHLY recommend it.

  • I can honestly say as someone who makes/designs clothing for a living it really is subjective from person to person. People honestly carry their weight in different places, not to mention that the way weight is distributed is different depending on muscle vs fat. For example, the last time I weighed in I was 184 lbs, waist…

  • You got this! The important thing to remember is that when you feel like giving up, you gotta keep going because even if you feel like you haven't made progress-you really have! You are working on yourself, and it isn't easy. Hang in there!

  • I agree with classes. Depending on where you go you can get anything from yoga, zumba, spin classes....try them out, see what agrees with you. Don't push yourself too hard too fast! The worst thing you want to do is injure yourself and not be able to work out effectively. Focus on eating right and getting 20-30 mins of…
