Keep candy and chips out of your reach. If you can, go to bed earlier (maybe your body is tired, and trying to keep awake with food?). When we're studying, the brain needs fuel (sugar) to keep focusing on the task. When my mouth is bored, I eat small snacks like fruits and veggies. It's common to have cravings, and it's ok…

I used small goals. For example, it would be 10 pound decrement. Oh I'm at 168, I wonder if I can get to 160. And then when I'm at 160, I try to reach 150. When you start losing weight, it's best to be around people who support you and encourage you. For example, the mfp community, family, friends. They'll start commenting…

Yes! More protein. The food diary is a bit off. I would spend time making meals, and recording it ahead of time. But I haven't gotten around to eat some of those meals yet. Thank you! Congrats on getting a new pet! I'll report back to you later when I eat something. Thank you. I might have to check in with my doc. I don't…

Thank you. I'm not sure if eating less is making me lethargic, or if exhaustion is causing me to have lower appetite. I'll have to think about what I have to eat today. I need to be told this is unhealthy and unacceptable, or else I'll just continue doing it.

I split up 1,200 cals into 4-5 meals. Usually evenly 300 or under. Usually small servings. I don't really eat a lot of carbs, but tends to be whole wheat bread. Unfortunately I don't get as much potassium or calcium at times. The most oil/fat I use is 1 tsp a day. Breakfast: 1 serving of cereal and 2% milk, fruits and…

Planning a wedding is incredibly stressful, you're gonna have the time of your life. I know that you're feeling frustrated with yourself right now. You've honestly gone through a lot, so do what you can. There's no harm trying again after failing. You're doing something, getting support and motivated to try again. That's…
