So bad for your teeth :#

Get the kitchen pro app. It's awesome. Does it all for you

Exogenous ketones like the "raspberry ketone" supplements? They do nothing except lighten your wallet.

I see! Like a car park BBQ! Got it :)

You cook out of the back of your car? That's gotta be some kind of witchcraft! How do you cook? Don't your cars smell? So many questions...

I see this on American telly all the time-but what exactly is "tailgating"?

I don't do cheat days coz tbh I can eat until the cows come home if I put my mind to it. And I'd eat the cows that came home too on top of that. Mmmm steak. However I very much know that at weekends will eat out at least once and I may have a couple of glasses of prosecco. So I am strict during the week and do some extra…

Oooh! That's *kitten* hilarious

Can someone tell me what *Kitten* means?

I can pack it away. Tbh if I'm having a treat day or a meal out with the OH I don't log it. I don't wanna stress over a meal I should be enjoying. Or be one of those crazies who insists on only dining at restaurants where the nutritional info is displayed. I used to be one of those crazies! Can't go back to that place lol…

Drink more water (if you don't already) . A lot of time we think we're hungry but it could just be thirst:)

This looks so tasty. So gonna make it!

Fillet steak with jewelled tabbouleh whole grain rice

I eat about a 1/3-1/2 of them if I'm hungry. I won't eat them if I'm not hungry though :)

They're kinda pricy but the itsu nori sheets are nice. (Available in the U.K.-unsure about other places) 22kcal/pack

Apparently the most accurate way is to go use a bodpod but at £90/session it's a pricy way to figure it out

It was an example. And it's all about personal choice/body autonomy :) Ps the shakes actually taste quite nice lol

Anyway OP don't read them if you don't want to. It's just strangers on the internet.never let it get to you. Chin up! Keep doing what you're doing and I hope your weight loss journey goes swimmingly! Night x

Oh opinions are great and anecdotal info is awesome. But what I thought OP was trying to say (or was annoyed with) was that these opinions are stated at inappropriate times when someone asks a question for e.g. About slim fast diets and then someone comes along to discredit the slim fast diet and say "it's all just cico…

Still doesn't make it scientifically/medically/dietitian accredited qualified I'm afraid. It makes it a very well formed opinion. That's it.

The annoyance and disheartening effect of saying "it's all cico" is the entire point of this thread :D I, for one, couldn't care less how anyone loses weight. Do whatever works for you, but don't listen to those who aren't qualified, telling you what's right and wrong (unless,of course, you ask what could be wrong in the…

But it's not useful to them at the moment they ask a question about the plan they chose to start and are potentially struggling with. Instead answer their question/give support/empathy/understanding.

As an academic I will wholeheartedly say it's not. But when someone is struggling on a plan they decided to start (which is very hard for some) and they ask a question in reference to aforementioned plan the last thing they need is someone saying "why cut it out? It's all cico" It's not helpful or useful and it's…

Why do they need to understand It? If their plan (with out knowing it's cico) works why on earth do they need that information? And more importantly why do strangers on the internet feel compelled to ram it down their throat? Live and let live. If someone wants advice on their structured plan give it. Don't point out info…

It's putting everyone's "expert" opinion about calorie counting down-*Ahem* the henched men and women who think because they're muscly and achieved a goal that suddenly they know all about weight loss and nutrition ergo "it's all cico". They don't. They know what worked for them, and them only-they're entitled to opinions…

Yes like I said, some people need that. And that is fine. Re-read my posts and tell me where it says it's not okay

Literally no one said that calorie counting or requiring structure/plans to do so is bad....

I know that all plans are essentially restricting calories in the end but some people need the structure of a plan to achieve a calorie deficit instead of just calorie counting from the off. Some people can just simply log calories. Some people need a new structure plan like low carb, or slim fast etc etc

Do whatever works for you. It's better to do a plan/program and get out of dangerous weight bracket than to try CICO and not succeed because your mind ultimately needs the plan/program to follow to succeed. Lots of armchair dietitians/doctors on here. Do not listen to them. Even nutritionists are just glorified calorie…
