  • I genuinely enjoy "healthy" food, I'll often choose to have carrot soup instead of chips just because I love it. But I'm not going to feel guilty for having ice cream several nights out of the week either since I know it fits into my day calorie wise as well. Basically I just go with what I like and fit in "fun" stuff with…
  • I don't nessicarily believe in "metabolism" jumps from eating more, But I do think there's more subconscious movement or something. I've been able to squeeze out an extra 200 calories a day after I stopped losing without express effort.
  • This is very true! I've recently had quite a few off the rail days due to some parties/pms cravings and today I'm 0.6 lower on my trend than my usual weight because I didn't let things slide and ate at a small deficit the rest of the week. It's a whole balancing act and gaining a half pound here or there isn't going to…
  • My most "fun" scale experience was when I ate in a deficit for a month and gained a few pounds according to the scale, only to then eat at maintenance(or slightly over) for 2 weeks and dropped 4 pounds(The two I "gained" and two extras). Technically I lost then maintained that loss, but the scale didn't add up to the…

  • My favorite "pickle" is more of a cucumber kimchi, It's sweet, salty, sour and spicy all in one! But yeah bread and butter pickles are weird to me, They're like dessert pickles!
  • Funny enough Mac and cheese is actually one of the pastas I WILL eat if I have to, But it's no where near a "comfort" food. It's just "not horrible" haha. I agree with pasta tasting cardboardy, Cardboard with a slimy texture(Sometimes homemade/fresh can taste doughy for variation?!) :s . I really like pumpkin gnocchi, it…
  • Strawberry icecream mochi! They're only 100cals for a sweet treat
  • Thanks for the insights everyone! I've definitely thought about the losing slowly approach, if I ever decide to go that route it could be interesting.
  • I have a super controversial opinion, One I've literally never met another soul who agrees with me. I. Hate. Pasta. There's a small amount I can stomach if I have no other option, but pasta/noodles are dead last on my food hierarchy. I've tried fresh, homemade. Different kinds of sauces, soups...No I just really hate…
