150g of Greek yogurt (about 130 - 160 calories depending on brand) which keeps me full until lunch

I'm trying to lose part of the weight i regained, and will wait at least after the first month to indulge in a cheat meal
-
Hiii ! Feel free to add me too guys and share the motivation & support :)

@klbidder Thanks :) the first 3 months were the worst (but cravings disappeared rather quickly 4-6 weeks) but i don't regret it and a year in I don't miss it at all (maybe the odd craving will appear if i'm super stressed out or angry but it quickly disappears). Another thing that really helped was the support from the…

Congrats on quitting :) I quit last year and to help through the first few months was munching on veggie sticks, gum/sugar free candy/lollipops (but then had to give up those because they got addictive lol), blowing bubbles, picked up a new hobby that kept my hands busy (music instrument, sowing...)... I was also afraid on…

One of my favs is homemade oven baked Falafel (requires basically blending ingredients) with hummus, pico de gallo or tzaziki (using Greek yogurt) dips. - lettuce-which (sandwhich replacing bread with big lettuce leaves) when I'm too lazy to cook / "fed up" of salads but want a low cal meal . Treats : - A frozen banana -…

Thanks everyone! Makes lots of sense (especially about restricting which could be risky and trigger another binge). I made peace (or piece lol) with my dessert blowout, so today had 1100 worth of calories on soupe, toast and fruit. @WaterBunnie Yeah the ravenous hunger and intense craving for sweets&carbs usually happens…

Same here! back on the wagon after re-gaining half of the weight i had managed to lose :/

Not to worry :) I have a doctor's (and dentist) appointment set for tomorrow so going to get the full check up and blood tests ! The length of the flu I think is related more to my body getting rid and coughing up all the toxic crap I have been smoking this year. Otherwise I've had a few EDs in the past (mainly bulimia -…

fruit mixed with greek yogurt + a bit of oatmeal or granola

You look fantastic!!! So inspiring :)

Thanks guys :) ! I'm trying not to obsess (but I'm pretty sure I did eat over 2000 calories too much this week) like im sure quite a few of us are too and yeah this is definitely all about lifestyle habits and quick fixes just dont work on the long run. I'll try to incorporate a bit of carbs in my eating patterns (which I…

Everyone, thanks for your insight! yeah I think it could definitely be related to just not getting enough calories. With my previous week's binge/prepms symptoms I gained 3 kgs (probably most is just water weight) so crossing fingers to get back to my regular weight by next week and increase my calories to 1600 to avoid…

Ban sugary drinks like the Sarsbucks frapuccinos I saw people walk around with and placing in the cup-holders of the elliptical machines.

Way to go!!! Congratulations :)

Up to now I only used the calorie log part of this site, and when i first started, i didnt think of taking those "professional" progress pics ( i wish i did now)... but ill cook something up for you guys to satisfy your curiosity :p ! just dont expect a super…
