Granola, oil/butter (in cooking, otherwise, butter on toast may be worth it sometimes), sugar (I just replace it with stevia or buy sugar free versions), full fat anything, rice, eggs and cheesecake.

Hm. This actually isn’t a bad idea. Eat the lower calorie and filling foods first, then allow small portions of the craving foods. I might just try this and see how it works. Thanks!

I hate how right your advice sounds. 😅 I am by no means fat, but I do just want to lean up the rest of my body a bit. I honestly don’t care if I stay at 140lbs. The weight was just a measure to see if I am making progress with fat loss. If I stay 140lbs but lean up in my stomach and arm area, then I am happy. I still feel…

I recovered. I am 140lbs at 5’6. I am no where near underweight, and my goal is no longer to be underweight. I am happier not be stick thin anymore. I don’t restrict heavily, but yes, I am cutting some calories to try to lose some of the extra weight. I am doing everything like a normal healthy person would. I understand…

I am aiming for a pound a week. I want to drop 20lbs off my frame (I am currently 140lbs). I am eating around 1800-1900kcal a day, and workout about 60-70min a day and walk 10-15k steps. I have not lost an ounce in four weeks, so I don’t think my deficit is too small, even though it does feel like I am in a deficit.

It’s just high reward foods. I enjoy my apples and carrots, but they don’t fully satisfy me. I am always wanting more sugary and fatty foods, like pancakes, ice cream, peanut butter, pizza, etc.

I am definitely not that lean. I carry more fat around my midsection. I would guess I am somewhere around 18-20% BF. I understand why our brains love the high calorie food, I just don’t understand why my cravings are so extreme is I am above a normal weight and not starving.

I saw a professional briefly, but it did not seem to help me. I also don’t have the funds to continue it for a prolonged period of time. I am on medication for my depression, so that does lessen the major binges for sure.

I have tried the weekly cheat day or refeed day before, but it just does not satisfy my cravings. I only use the term cheat day to refer to the fact that I will be eating unhealthy options. Basically anything I crave. A refeed, to me anyhow, is a day where I would eat more but still choose healthy options. It is a l out…

It is kind of new, kind of not. I used to be an avid endurance athlete, but had to take about 6 months off of exercise. So now it is sort of new form the past 6 months. I am hoping it is just fluid retention because otherwise I don’t understand how I am not losing. And I definitely would not have really noticed any…

Thank you for this! I am always worried that my large appetite is just something abnormal about me. My friends and family always tell me that I should force myself to shrink my stomach, because only obese people have large appetites, and that’s how I will end up. Yes, that picture of me is current. I have more fat on me…

5’6 and 140lbs right now. Overshot my pre-ED weight by a lot. My goal is around 110-115lbs, maybe 120lbs if I have more muscle. I have a small frame though, so probably closer to the lower end.
