1. thinking about how i'll feel afterwards (never ever not once for any reason have i ever regretted a workout) 2. my goals - visuals really help, not just words 3. COFFEE.

5'9 .. hello :)

hello emily, just added you - i'm also 21 and studying :)

ohmygod this sounds amazing !

low cal hot chocolate usually does it for me or otherwise dark chocolate (80% + cocoa) - it's pretty rich, so i'll only have a square or two, whereas with milk chocolate it's SO.MUCH.SUGAR and i can never stop :/

and fresh herbs are amazing :)

pickles! (if someone hasn't mentioned this already)

21 yr old design student, hi :)

amazing :)

hello hello! i'm also based in london, added you :)

added you, welcome :)

no. unless you really love special k .. or actually still no, 'cause you barely get to eat any. it's just another fad, and not something you can sustain in the long run.

Sometimes it helps and sometimes it doesn't. I've slipped between restricting and bingeing for years, so i use this site to both make sure that i don't eat too much or too little..I guess it's made me more accountable for my actions either way; too little is as bad as too much.

hey! i'm trying to recover and lose weight healthily too ..this has been pretty helpful so far with keeping me accountable about eating too little/too much, so hopefully you've come to the right place :)

yeah..upping my intake earlier in the day has definitely helped me with that, I used to do a similar thing with pre-dinner calories only going up to 5/600 and then overeating in the evening. It takes a while to get used to and might be initially difficult if you (as I did) don't trust yourself to not overeat later anyway,…

Also when I start the focus on the exact foods and quantities and numbers, it distracts me from the reason behind the binge in the first place..and then leads to restricting,…

I'm in too! ..fairly new to this, so feel free to add me :)
