I think it all boils down to what YOUR goals are. My goal is to lose 0.5kg a week. So if I am under my calorie goal, daily, I will lose more than that in the week. I don't really bother being super strict as long as I am satisfied! I think as long as you're satisfied then you are doing fine! For me, it's all about balance…

Honestly, Iced coffee is not the best for you. But balance is key! I say if you're going to drink it, drink it the way YOU like it! Then take the calories into account when planning your whole daily intake. Like if it's a morning or afternoon snack, have a smaller or less calories dense breakfast or lunch before hand.

No, do not abstain! That is proberly why you binged in the first place. Just start over tomorrow. Everyone falls off the wagon! Just get back on track, don't deprive yourself.

I have only had water & green tea every day for 11 days in a row (one day I had a couple of glasses of wine also). The peeing slows down once your body is used to it! I have found it suppresses my apatite too! I have at least 2 mugs of green tea (2 servings in each) & aim to drink 3 litres of water (not including the tea).…

I like simple rice & veggies! It is soooo filling & I often find I don't need an afternoon snack when I eat it. I use basmati rice mostly with corn, capsicum, spinach, peas, broccoli... Whatever you feel like!

That sounds so ludicrous! I have a friend who's experienced hitting a wall in weight loss & she actually upped her calorie intake, changed her exercise regime.

️Breakfast: Banana & a double green tea (didn't feel well as it is shark week haha) Lunch: rice & vegetables Dinner: Spaghetti with grilled prawns & chorizo with a home made, home grown dressing made from lemon, lime & basil. Also contained grilled cherry tomatoes, sugar snap peas & capsicum! Was amazing! Snacks: I had…

I was the binge eating queen! I just learned not to deprive myself. If you feel like something then have it but in moderation!! Still count the calories & ulter your meals around that for the day. If I am craving bacon & eggs I have it but I poach the eggs & use short cut bacon & make sure I have some spinach & veg! Also,…

If you have drastically changed your diet this is a normal part of your body detoxing. If it continues much longer than a week look at adding more protein for sure! Also, remember not all calories have the same value! A prepackaged snack may have 70 calories but 70 calories of protein, veg or healthy fats will keep you…

Scrambled eggs (or egg whites depending on your goals) with veg! Mushrooms, onion, capsicum, tomato, corn, peas, spinach, broccoli.. & if you have roast veg left over from dinner you could always make a frittata? bit of salt & pepper or garlic (or any fresh herbs)

Would love some healthy lunch & snack ideas! No seafood suggestions as I am allergic ☺️ I have breakfast down & dinner I am getting better at but I am always stuck for lunch & snack ideas! thank you!

Hey there! Water retention does suck & weighing yourself at random times of the day is super discouraging! I heard that for the most accurate weight you wake up, use the bathroom & weight yourself first thing in the morning. Also, I have also been told to only weigh yourself once a week, not every day. These are just a few…

I am in the same boat.. only two years ago I lost between 10-15kg! since then I have put it all back on. I am just focusing on changing my habits slowly, being mindful of what I eat (the reason I am using MFP!), & just slowly changing goals. I set goals like: drink 3L of water every day this week, have at least a serve of…
