That's loads. Wow. How do you manage to walk that much in the day? Is it done via work?

Definitely continue tracking. Keep downloading that knowledge :smile:

Sounds you had a different answer in mind lol. The man enjoys his fitness :wink:

Something I discovered I enjoy. Pepperoni dipped in mayo or Garlic Bread, Pepperoni and Mayo. For either a meal or snack. Yum!

Unless you're allergic or intolerant to those foods there's no reason at all to forgo them. If anything that'll cause more stress via willpower burn out and ultimately binge eating. You don't need to eat a no carb or low carb diet. All you're required to do for weight loss & health is eat at a caloric deficit with…

How many calories are you eating in a day?

I probably shouldn't have be so definite with my time frame however I say that because I'm confident that applying the correct approach (which they probably haven't been aware of or tried) will be that effective. Everyone's different of course, you're right. And it's also not a race either.

I used to be addicted to bread too. White bread. At one point eating one = 4/5 slices. Funny enough I was eating the most bread when I was trying to restrict myself from it. One day I decided to scrap the restriction on bread and other things and over a 2 weeks or so the urge to eat more and quite frankly binge on it…

Interesting comment. Sounds like you're working alongside your hunger. Awesome.

I wouldn't say years.. I feel it can be achieved inside 12 - 18 months. It's really about being mindful and attentive to what feedback your body gives you over time (+12 months is long time). Eg: If you eat more in one sitting for lunch and you're not hungry until 8pm. That's listening to your body. It's actually easier…

I fully understand where you're coming from here. As a society we're so far removed from this form of eating that it's probably a wise decision to first gain knowledge on cals & nutrition etc with time spent dieting. Otherwise you're right, you could feel like a fish out of water without the probably knowledge to go with…

Yikes, that's rough. Glad you're over that.

I think you're right about some people being successful at it and others not so much. I'm of the idea that everyone is at least capable of eating this way with enough experience. You made an excellent point about being observant with volume food and the body thinking you ate more than the actually calories consumed that…

Hunger cues alone? No mindless eating, boredom & emotional eating etc?

I enjoy carbs far too much

Day 2 Commences! Hope everyone's does great today too :smile:

Day 1 done here too. Although I have my sister coming over and she notoriously carries snack food with her.... I should be fine though. Was a higher calorie day today :)

You won't get a 100% accurate log but it's still good to register it. Search for Chippy Chips. Compare the size with McDonalds chips. As in how many large McDonalds fries do you reckon that portion of chips equated to. Get that reading then log a chippy item with similar stats. That's how I do it. Also log a tablespoon of…

Sign me up. It's kinda convenient this post, I dabbling with a no sugar week for bants this week. This should be a fun week :)

Hey brother, I've had great results from IF too. For years I've lost weight pretty well all over my body however my lower stomach and love handles have still been somewhat an issue (albeit minor) to me despite the weight loss. The fat just wouldn't go around my midsection. Fast forward, I stumbled across IF through a…

You're eating too much. Simple as that. Re-evaluate your caloric intake and ensure you're in a caloric deficit daily/weekly. Doing this your body has no choice but to lose weight.

Vegetables. Namely lettuce, cucumber, peppers, onions, kale, broccoli, spinach, mushrooms etc. I don't eat any of those vegetables in super large amounts at any one time so I decided against tracking it. It has no negative effects on my weight loss results whatsoever. For me, tracking to the gram is a means to an end. I…

I think I needed to hear this too. Wonderful wonderful words of advice.

Simple. You're not ready yet. Only when you decide to commit to your new habits consistently will you be ready.
