    in Find Friends: Charge / HR Owners Comment by lottieouroboros January 2019
  • Same here! (Currently in the eating machine phase right now, lol). Before my period I'm super hungry and crave anything dairy/fat related, then once my period starts I'm not very hungry for the first day or two and can't eat anything carb-heavy (like bread or fries) - this is especially if I get nausea. I also retain a lot…

  • Thank you for all your answers! I haven't been taking measurements, I'm basing it more on the way my old jeans fit... if patience is the answer then I guess I'll just have to wait it out!
    in Not Losing Thigh Weight, Help? Comment by lottieouroboros January 2019
  • I know what you mean. I don't have an eating disorder but I think I could potentially if I didn't keep checking in with how I feel about food and watching how my mental health is. I currently estimate calories (I don't weight food, I estimate to the best of my ability) and I deliberately don't weigh food because I think…
    in Avoiding eating disorder Comment by lottieouroboros October 2018
  • I was debating between alta HR and charge 2, I ended up with the charge 2 and absolutely love it – at the moment the charge 2 may well be cheaper (because the charger 3 is coming soon) which was mostly why I picked the charge 2 over the alta HR, especially considering how many more features the charge 2 has :)
    in Fit Bit Alta HR vs Fit Bit Charge 2 Comment by lottieouroboros August 2018
  • If you wear the fitbit all the time, and you have synced the fitbit with MFP, you don't log exercise manually – the fitbit does it all. If you also manually log your exercise, this is why you're off track – because your exercise is being logged once by the fitbit and once by you, so MFP thinks you are doing double the…
    in Fitbit Charge 2 and logging Comment by lottieouroboros August 2018
  • I make sure to schedule in some snacks, because I *know* I will binge if I try and restrict/resist the temptation to eat sweet things. I've also begun drinking water much more regularly and I think this will help. I also try to shift more towards pure protein and avoid carbs (depending on what I crave – basically I don't…
    in (LADIES ONLY!) What do ya do when you're overly hungry because of that time of the month? Comment by lottieouroboros August 2018
  • I used to be on 1,200 calories but I found it incredibly difficult to stick to it – I've since raised my goal to 1,500 and I've lost nearly 4lbs in a couple of weeks, but most importantly I don't feel hungry all the time or get the urge to binge. I'm 5"3 and 147lbs (started at 151) for reference.
    in Weight loss for people 5’3 and under Comment by lottieouroboros August 2018
  • I want to be able to go shopping for jeans and not hate my thighs. I'm only slightly overweight but my thighs have been a deep insecurity for a long time and I just... want to be able to feel good in whatever I'm wearing without my weight getting in the way.
    in What is your "Petty" Reason to Lose Weight? Comment by lottieouroboros August 2018
  • Thank you for everyone who's given me advice! I set my goal of 1lb per week, I'm currently at 144lbs and I ideally want to get down to 120lbs (although I'll be happy with being anywhere within 120-129lb range). I put my activity at the lowest because I'm a student and I spend a lot of time sitting, but then I log all my…
