@bigbandjohn thank you so much for sharing your story. I aspire to that level of will power and I know I’ll get there!! We can all do this together right 😇

@LiLee2018 I totally see your point, thanks for spelling it out. It can be hard on MFP because the drastic weight loss journeys are very promoted, but I guess eating more healthier and feeling better is also a good achievement!

@JeromeBarry1 I’ll try to get that bread, but I’m trying to have Vogel’s bread because it’s got loads of protein in it. However, a lower calorie alternative might be good if a bread craving does occur! Thank you so much

Yasss 😍 I know I feel so much better when I exercise! Got to get the endorphins flowing!

@RonRoff thank so so much, that’s really helpful. Now I can maybe understand why the binges happen. I’ll never try to compensate again and I’ll keep working through it!

Wow guys! I weighed how much mashed potato I was eating for the first time. Eye opening! I’ll be so much more careful with logging from now on, and hopefully I’ll still be able to fit treats in so I don’t binge. Thank so all so much for your advice - let’s make this one a success story as well!

@wmweeza thank you so much. That was really inspirational and interesting so read. Maybe I’m going too strict and that’s causing my binges. I’ll take your advice for a week at least and see how it goes!

Yeah thank you, I’ll definitely start to just log everything, even if it’s hard. I think that might be what I need to finally start to lose weight. I’m terms of the inaccurate logging, I use the recipe builder for recipes I make, but have no clue really what goes into things I’m served. However, I have to eat this or I…

I often can’t weigh all of my food as I have to eat food that soemone else has prepared because of the nature of my work. Although I will try to make the healthiest choice I can at lunch, I’m limited to what is served and my vegetarianism.

I use one every time I prepare my own meals but I’m sometimes forced to pick the closest thing I can find preprepared on the app. This I the issue, as I feel like I’m doing everything right most of the time.
