I used to believe that ACV would make me loose weight, when it did have an impact, psychologically. I literally subconciously convinced myself "I'm not hungry because I took acv" and it worked that way. So calorie deficit, no magical properties of acv made me loose weight. If you apply the same principle to the water you'd…

I used to think like that, and I developed bulimia that lasted for a year. I used to purge myself after I ate "forbidden" foods and took me a long time to let go of such distorted thinking. It's scary how crucial your perception is, when comming to weightloss.

Lol, NO. Excess protein goes trough our kidneys and it's basally peed out, while fats are stored as triglicerydes and too much carbs can be converted to triglicerydes in de novo lypogenesis. Don't preach woo here.

I stopped because it was hard counting calories and tracking every meal. I didin't put on weight after I quit, but just maintained what I had. Now I am experimenting with portion control and eating less than I think it's enough and I started loosing weight again. It's easier for me this way since I'm not restricting…

Indomie noodles. I could eat that every day..

It's mostly based on pseudoscience and woo, trying to get you to believe how everyone is conspiring agsinst vegans...etc. The big bad meat industry.. They had a potential to do it way better, but they turned to already paranoid audience that hates modern science and spews this bs. p.s. don't get me wrong, I am aspiring…

I usually drink Turkish coffee, no sugar. If I want something sugary on the other hand, I take those 3 in 1 coffee baggies estimated around 75 cals, and mix 'em with water. Keeps me happy and my cravings away.

Well, swiss is the most expensive country in europe, therefore never go to resturants. You pay like 25 € for just the seat, in some resturants. I only drank coffee and ate in the morning,breakfast time when I went there on trip. Still I managed to spend 50 euros in 5 days :/

My biggest "sin" is eating anything with ketchup or tomato sauce/juice. I'd created salads,meats, soups with some tomato juice for the taste. And I've stoped eating bread, or pasta (not bc I can't have it) but because I don't actually crave pasta or bread, only salty,sweet tomato flavour. And it helps me cut my calories…

Woo for posts that encourage anti-scientific belief (aka ACV, diet pills, starvation mode..etc)

I used not to eat "mixed" foods like pasta and cheese, it needed to be completely separate or I would not eat it. I hated russian salad, and still do to this day, never liked mayo and would't touch anything if it had mayo on top of it. But on the other hand I think cooked chicken tastes better when unsalted and unseasoned,…

What 'bout MN system? Or any other bloodtype system ppl are not familiar with? I guess it was not cool enogh to get a woo diet baste upon it.

How long did you do this? If it's not longer than week, then it is fine. Have you logged accurately, ate your exercise calories back?..etc It may be initial water weight that is still there so give it time and patience.

If you do this for weightloss then -no, don't go on a juice fast hoping you'll cheat calories. Because if you don't have usual ritual, or are uncomfortable with it, you're gonna have a bad time. But if you do this and it makes you feel good and you don't feel deficient in any way, then go ahead.Opt for veggie juices and…

I would.

What does it mean to eat 'clean'?

No, they don't work.

Everything. I'm surprised the most by how calorific some fruits are :(

I'm good at gaining weight. Lol

They are the ones that everyone stumbles upon at least once. Freelee is selling veganism as a weightloss plan, a "lifestyle for life" and recommends eating 3000 cals per, tell me who wouldn't want to believe that? Many people end up believing them, at least partially especially if you used to yo-yo diet for a long time.…

Vegan gurus like Freelee the banana girl (or today gofreeyourself) Fullyrawkristina, heck there is one other guy called Durianrider who promotes eating raw sugar and drinking sprite for weightloss. There is "That vegan couple" "Bananiac" etc all are for HCLF,30 bananas a day diet. Lots of people like unnatural vegan have…

I liked the kitten version more.

That's why I buy only the *kitten* breads that taste like cardboard. I had the same issue here, couldn't stop eating the bread so I don't buy the "healthy" ones.

Eggs, meat, fish, rice you can combine them with lots of green veggies and some freshly squeezed fruit. Eat what makes you feel good not what you deem 'healthy' that feels like chewing a cardboard.

I've read it can have benefits to satiety and it's cool, so do it if it helps you feel better. For me personally, I don't smell a thing, good or bad, so I wouldn't know.

What everyone has said already. It's nit sustaibable and it's a fad. It doesn't teach you to live, just gets you starving.

I have simmilar issues. It's better to measure yourself, the progress is more visible like that. I do that every week..ish.

Ther is absolutely no reason to follow that diet at all. Just put it in the "bs" bin and carry on with eating what you like at deficit.

There's body fat calculator online. I do think you have to measure your waist, hips and thighs in order to work properly.

Some of us can eat 1200-1300 cals, makeing it half of our daily alowance. Just' sayin'
