It sounds to me like you are eating for a lot of reasons other than hunger. This was me all over. This year has been hard, with lots of ups and downs. Figuring out the reasons why you eat has to be the starting point, but it can be hard to face. A lot of the time it might simply be boredom. It could be that you're trying…

I started taking chromium. I have no desire for sugar or rich foods at all, any time of the month!

If it does I highly recommend this book "Overcoming Bulimia Nervosa and Binge-Eating" by Peter Cooper. Then read it. Then follow it. Religiously. It's the best $25 I have ever spent.

Does this describe you "Binge eating disorder involves eating very large amounts of food in a short period of time and feeling a sense of loss of control while eating. It often happens at times of stress, anger, boredom or distress and at these times is used as a way of coping with challenging emotions."?

Your doctor can check if you have problems with either the liver or thyroid by blood test. Iodine supplementation can help with mild thyroid insufficiency as mentioned I am not aware of any reason that your thyroid would need cleansing. If you have liver issues there are certain herbal things you can look into taking such…

I've had all my tests done. I need to take Silica, Chromium, Vitamin D, trace elements and Iron+C. Make sure if you take Iron to take it separately from other minerals particularly Calcium and Magnesium as they will not be absorbed properly if taken together. I also take fish oils and probiotics with prebiotics. I also am…

I had been stuck at the same weight for quite a few months. the 3kg in a couple of days was after I started the Dfine8

Thanks everyone. I've been giving it a go. Lost 3 kilos in a few days so it will be interesting to see if that lasts. I eat very healthy and stick to my MFP calories and exercise 5-6 days per week, so just looking for something to help me out of my plateau!

I assume because you haven't mentioned it, that you are not breastfeeding? If you are don't forget that you may need a little extra because of that. I find around 1600 a day works well for me. I don't get so hungry that I end up having a binge and lose weight consistently. I do exercise 5-6x a weeks, which consists of…

Do it, you will not regret it! I love the changes consistent resistance training has made to my body. Going to keep at it for life!

I have no idea what a spiral ham is but lasagne is a favourite of mine too, and a weakness. My recipe is as follows: 700g lean (95%fat-free or less) beef mince, 1 onion, 1 medium carrot, 1 celery stick, 2 garlic cloves, 1 bottle of tomato based pasta sauce (I use Leggo's napoletana 575g), 2 bay leaves, 1/2C beef stock salt…

Paleo makes a lot of sense from a biochemical point of view. Our bodies haven't changed much at all since paleolithic times yet with our popular fast food culture our food supply has changed vastly - and all you have to do is look around to see the effects of this on our waistlines. Try it, you will probably find it works

Going to give these a go, thanks looks lovely :)

I'm 5'11.5. Currently 157 lb (71kg - AUS size 12) and aiming for 145 (66kg - Aus size 10). At my heaviest was 202lb (92kg) and leanest 136lb (62kg). After two kids my tummy is my biggest issue, focusing on overall toning and to reducing BF from ~23/4% down to about 20%.

No. I'd get rid of all the processed stuff and replace it with eggs for breakfast with mushroom/tomato/spinach/garlic, lean meat/chicken/fish with veggies or salad for lunch and the same for dinner. Good snack choices are fruits (berries are the lowest in sugar) but always have a few raw unsalted nuts with it to give you a…
