I still enjoy food but I find investing in better quality things makes so I'm less likely to chow down on the entire thing (ie when I'm wanting chocolate, getting a bar of Cadbury/Godiva vs. some kind of cheap hershey bar at the checkout). I also enjoy eating out so my partner and we make time once a week/every other week…

1. My dance studio membership. I hate working out in a gym (seriously will not set foot in a traditional gym, after spending hours upon hours in the gym as a form of purging in college when I was struggling with bulimia) but having a variety of different dance/yoga classes (including pole/lyra/aerial…

I love yoga - I do at least 1x/week (I go to a physical class but also practice on my own) and have been doing that regularly for the past 2+ years. Since I can't go to my studio atm because of COVID-19, I've been using Down Dog and YouTube (yoga w/adrienne), I also have adapted poses that are part of my PT regime (like…

Coke Zero energy drinks (I've heard they taste terrible tho), Cheetos popcorn

* Breakfast: everything bagel + cream cheese, coffee * Snack: Coffee crisp * Lunch: 2 homemade spring rolls with chili sauce, 1/2 apple, 1/3 banana * Dinner: Pulled BBQ chicken, fried okra

I usually estimate or find a close-enough substitute to log. I also opt for healthier options when eating out or split an order of something with my bf (things like nachos or a sandwich - he usually has to end up ordering something else but it keeps my cal count down lol).

As someone that used to struggle with BED/bulimia, I don't do cheat days/meals. I feel like that's just a recipe for disaster. I think it's much better to incorporate all sorts of foods within my daily calorie budget/going over slightly when I want to indulge some days. That being said, I've also found…

Nah. As someone that used to struggle with BED, I feel like it's just setting yourself up for failure if one day you chose to start switching over to regular pints. I think it's better to just use portion control and budget in reg ice cream or find other substitutions for your sweet tooth. Plus reg ice cream is soooo much…

I don't really consider the workouts I do "exercise". I used to spend hours at the gym and hated every second. Now, instead of that, I go to a dance studio and take various classes there (aerobic dance, modern, ballet, jazz, ribbon dance, salsa, pole dancing, etc) + do aerial acrobatic stuff for strength training (lyra and…

* Buffalo chicken lettuce wraps (can be made in crock pot or instant pot - changes up the flavor a lot from reg ol' chicken. Literally just chicken breasts + ranch seasoning + buffalo sauce. I add Bolthouse ranch and chopped green onions on top for extra flavor. If you have non-dieters in your house, they can add the…

Height: 5'6" CW: 180 lbs CGW: 165 lbs UGW: 145 lbs NS Goals: Be able to do an unassisted pull-up by the end of the year (currently struggling with assisted ones), fit comfortably into last years shorts this summer (gained 15 lbs at the end of 2019 due to depression, my main priority is to shed that weight)

Instant pot buffalo chicken lettuce wraps (chicken breasts + frank's buffalo sauce + powdered ranch seasoning + lettuce leaves + bolthouse ranch + diced green onions)

Mountain Dew Zero (haven't had regular Mt. Dew since high school). It's definitely not as horrid as diet mt. dew but it's not as carbonated as the reg soda so it tastes quite syrupy.

* Breakfast: Everything bagel w/garlic & herb cream cheese & 12oz black coffee * Morning Snack: Banana & more coffee * Lunch: Butter chicken w/2 naan rounds * Afternoon snack: Sliced orange & another cup of coffee * Dinner: Chicken breast & broccoli stir fry
