  • I'm only aiming for 1 lb weight loss per week so not sure why lost 2.6lbs this past week. I had to go on clear liquids for a few days at the beginning of the month for health reasons, so maybe it just caught up? I also stayed at 206.6 for a couple weeks so maybe was just holding onto weight for a bit. I've started using…

  • This is interesting to me given most diets/eating plans require you to count something ie: carbs, macros, weight watchers points.
  • Mine is bread (any kind - bagels, buns, etc) and potato chips. I put bread in the freezer now and only take out a slice or 2 at a time. I generally don’t keep chips in the house anymore. I have popcorn and pretzels in if I want a crunchy snack. If I really wanted chips I would buy a small bag only.
  • Here’s a typical day for me. Breakfast (220 calories) 1/2 cup Fibre One cereal 1/2 cup 1% milk Small box raisins 1/4 cup blueberries Lunch (300 calories) Sautéed onion, pepper, mushroom & spinach in olive oil with 2 large eggs. Or Avocado, tomato, cucumber sandwich on toasted rye bread with mayo. Snack (200 calories)…

  • Some of my favourite batch cookings items are: Apple Breakfast Patties (my recipe is similar to this but I add 1/4 cup minced onion and I also mince the apple rather than shred.) I usually triple the recipe. https://www.everylastbite.com/2018/01/12/pork-apple-breakfast-sausage/ Greek Green Beans…

  • I find at the beginning of eating healthy or starting a diet I never feel hungry enough to eat all my set calories. Usually within a few days I settle into my calorie limit. As others have mentioned it’s probably because the healthy foods are much more filling than the chips, cookies, processed food I would eat if I wasn’t…
  • I did Keto for a little over a year and am sharing how I approached starting the diet. From reading your posts I’m not sure you actually did the diet correctly. When I started I did not count calories at all for the first few weeks. I wanted to give myself time to adjust and then afterwards I set a calorie limit and…

  • @deepwoodslady, aw, thanks for your message! I just saw it. I’ve been yo-yoing for a long time. I’m allowing myself higher calories (usually go down to 1200-1300) and hoping it will be more sustainable this time.
