knowing and awareness that you struggle in a pattern I'm guessing helps to be at least objective of the vicious cycle,,, i like watching you tube vids that promote health so I can keep myself brainwashed towards health or at least try to balance out the incredibly saturated food addiction triggering media and streets out…

Hi my name is Tamara, I'm thirty seven .. and ready to get fit :)

desiccated liver tablets.. four a day

well I didn't say no to dessert , but I didn't go for seconds or thirds ;) ! and I put the running shoes on today .. :)

I don't know how your diet is, but huge sugar cravings and hot flashes can be signs of something that has nothing to do with how your will power is... hot flashes are associated with kidneys and adrenal glands, sugar cravings to that degree candida or a deficit in protein.. it does work sometimes to have a few almonds or…

good luck ... its so fun to find our personal pathways to success and health :smile:

and I snack harder on days I repress emotions for sure

yes your on to something .. I could never quite pin my need to feel satiated .. you've given food for thought :) if i don't eat a square meal .. I can snack all day

do this for yourself and straight up tell him he's being unsupportive and ask what u need :) resentment builds negative emotion appetites ! just coming from my experience :) take it with a grain of salt ..but donughts really ? that would be annoying, good luck !

night time is tough for me too.. especially if skimp during the day ! Im trying to have bigger breakfasts and lunch but the plan might backfire lol

I hear you.. especially about being athletic and yet there is the other side with the food.. thats been me forever.. and my emotional eating does block a fitter me..

ricebowls :)

soups :) fresh juices, crock pot recipes...

yep we would work :) feel free to add.. open diary

Hi Im new to the group and I luv to eat healthy in good quantity to fuel up.. learning balance and getting into exercise more.. theres no way Id start eating to few calories while increasing exercise ! Doesn't make sense to me .. looking for results.. but priority is energy :) now hopefully both as I get fit

Hiya

nine days no sugar, refined carbs.. pasta bread etc, dairy.. feels awesome.. 14 day reboot cleanse.. Id like to stay eighty five percent like this in the future min. funny how sweet things smell

pepsi max can't be 5 Cal.. thats probably the only thing I saw.. your meals look healthy just add a bit too them .. you'll probably won't want to reach for soda with more food nutrients in ya to keep energy levels up... but yeah i guess its a bit rude telling u what and what not to to eat ! My opinion :)

Possibly free toxins now coming out

sounds like he didn't want you to succeed in your own personal goals... Good thing he's an ex.. but put away the guilt or validation u need from him... this is about you !! as it sounds u probably will never get the words you did want to hear from him, the power in the scenario needs to be moves back to your self.. I know…

Average 1300- 1600 .. My Diary is open

nice 20 by the way :blush:

I agree with all of the above :) Feel right at home in this group and Im not perfect but I love good healthy food..even if I eat a little to much of it sometimes ... helps that Im an organic Gardener.. Diary is open

good luck !

I woke up last night at 3 am had two tablespoons of peanut butter, some pineapple juice to wash it down then went back to bed.. as if my body woke up to say what are u doing to me ? lol logged it as snack today :)

I have suffered on and off from depression since 19. Like mentioned above I can sway either direction if Im in a depressive episode... binge or no appetite at all. I manage way better these days but I have had to go through the unpleasant weight gain with meds over the last eight years... I'm on smaller doses now and…

I empathize with you.. meds are so difficult and a vicious cycle in that situation. Although not for bi polar I have gained weight through medication .. it was hard when the appetite wouldn't shut down, energy levels low, and yet u can't seem to see a way out.. not t o mention metabolism and med dynamics ...

meds for depression... even though I was actually anemic, not depressed... eight years later a better doctor and the pounds are dropping back.. can't wait to feel how I did before that nightmare

I was down at a 2 for ferritin at one point my late twenties due to heavy periods... diet (and believe me I ate everything from elk meat to plate fulls of cooked spinach ) wasn't enough alone when your that close o anemia.. feromax is a great elemental iron supplement that didn't hurt the gut to much .. expensive but worth…

my juicer :)
