Obviously it's not good mentally to ever binge nor is it good to restrict food to enable binging. So the harm it would do is more mental than physical.

Temporarily yes, the scale would go up when you weigh on a Sunday, but over time no. You'd still lose weight. It's calorie input vs output over time, not just every single day

Does it only work on the full site? Just tried to "make a food" in the app but can't put minus calories :(

I was wondering how someone above did that! Thanks

Are you still eating mostly subway? Probably a good idea to up the protein for sustained energy release. The bread subway use it majorly sugar heavy I always feel full for an hour or two after them then crash. Maybe buy some porridge (oatmeal I think Americans call it) as well-if you have access to a microwave they're…

Yeah I used to do that when I did weight watchers-saving points etc. Definitely works well for weekends! I get the sense you don't understand MFP/Diets/Deficits much. Be careful you're not eating too little based on what you just said above.

If you're craving it and the fact you're on a vegan diet suggests that your body is actually wanting more fat. So perhaps start putting more fat into your vegan diet and the huge cravings will stop and you'll be able to control it better. Peanut butter is a classic craving when your diet is too low in fat. I am the same…

Cream cheese and salmon or butter are marmite *droooool*

The Atkins bars are amazing. My Favourite is the mint decadence and the cookies and cream. Quest bar are also good! I cut them into four and put them in my George Forman grill-kinda makes cookies

It's because it's based on volume. A volume of fat weighs less than the same Volume filled with muscle.

Yo! I'm from London and I like hiking although haven't been for a while! Too chilly!

Butterbuds 8kcal/sachet Butter = approx 750kcal/100g Lurpak lightest = 377kcal/100g

I get butterbuds for putting in mash/baked potatoes/veggies/soups etc and I use lurpak lightest for toast.

Schools need to have a food policy because sadly the entire nation (US or U.K.) is insanely obese. Teachers see kids everyday and therefore it's a good opportunity to instill habits like healthy eating. They see and talk to their teachers for a larger portion of the day than their parents and every kid goes to school. It's…

In the U.K. We don't have access to pumpkins or canned pumpkin all year round (usually only during Halloween-it's not a popular vegetable here) do you think butternut squash would be an okay substitute or just using more zucchini? Thanks

Metabolism is a really complex subject. It isn't just about calories and calories out it's how they're processed and where they are coming from in the first place. Like other posters. Find what works for you. I was doing keto, but I love vegetables way too much. It just made me feel bleugh. And quite honestly- a burger…

I am 26 and wanting to lose 40lbs. Is that close enough? :-)

To lose 12lbs by 3rd Feb as I have a posh event :)

Second the teas. Lemon and ginger with stevia tastes like a Sherbert lemons :)

It doesn't. It's a myth. You do burn calories generally a bit more for about an hour-hour and half after a workout but it doesn't matter what you eat.

It won't let me add in the link for the gummy bear moulds but a pack of 3 with the pipettes are on amazon prime for £7.99

Also all the Atkins chocolate bars are low carb and low sugar, high protein, high fibre. The chocolate mint and the milk crisp choc are amazing. Not particularly low cal though. Approx 220kcal/bar

Zero carb, zero sugar, low cal, high protein gummy bears are my go to. I have attached a pic (I made only raspberry ones as that's all I had in) They're super easy to make: The recipe is assuming you're UK based. If in the US the proportions may differ as we have different jelly/jello. Ingredients: 1x sachet of sugar free…

I always measure my weight loss in sausages. 8 sausausages=1lb so far I have lost 122 sausages

I find it frustrating too. However, I use him getting into shape as motivation to work harder. I don't wanna be the frumpy gf.

Carbonara 387Kcal

Homemade tomato soup with cheese toastie. 505Kcal Love that it is getting to Soup weather again! I can actually take it to university now. I hated making salads for lunches. It's so dull!

How can he get the facts in order if you didn't volunteer the info that you had an operation coming up in the original post? It's fair to assume that on a recipe post on a weight management forum that the reason you would choose to fast is for weight management reasons rather than for an operation.
