  • Just an update: I’ve gotten back on track and my caloric suggestion from MyFitnessPal has helped me with not feeling hungry. I didn’t gain anything from my 4 day binge. Actually, I lost weight. That was a surprise. I appreciate all of your advice. It has helped me get back on track. Thank you all so much for your kind…

  • Thank you for your reply. I have found the whole process of losing weight to be extremely overwhelming in itself. I see a therapist twice a month for my bipolar depression, anxiety, and OCD. I have never really brought up my issues with food, because I already have so much to discuss that it feels like too much. I guess it…

  • I use the Calm app to relax, per the request of my therapist. So I'm sure she would love the idea of me doing guided breathing. Thank you.

  • Thank you for your reply! Things have definitely been stressful here lately. I am also only getting around 5 hours of sleep a night at most. I really want to get my motivation back and I feel like taking a bit of a break might help with that. I set my maintenance calories and then went down a little from those, because I…

  • To clarify, I get to eat those calories back because MFP already builds in a deficit depending on how much weight I want to lose, correct? Sorry if I’m asking too many questions. I’m trying to make sure that I understand everything lol.

  • Basically, that would mean whatever I do normally besides the exercise? So if I spend most of the day sitting at a desk I would be sedentary?

  • Thank you all for the help! I looked up my TDEE and calculated everything based off of that and what MFP is suggesting. I am aiming for a 1lb a week weight loss now. I really appreciate all of your replies. :)

  • Thank you! I appreciate your help! I adjusted my goals and set it to lose 1lb a week. I am just worried that increasing my calories is going to lead to a weight gain. Or will it just speed up my metabolism and help with the weight loss at a healthier pace? I apologize if I seem like I’m not understanding it. I’m still…

  • Hi, everyone. First, I just wanted to thank you all for your kind words and support. They mean a lot. I had to get myself back into the mentality necessary to achieve my goal. I think I just lost sight of it after indulging. I have stopped drinking diet soda and realized that it was causing me to crave sugar. I've…
