Your best bet for Chinese food is to cook it yourself!! Restaurant fare tend to go overboard with the salt and sauces and oils... Your sodium and calorie count would be off the charts! Chinese food is still healthy because it's usually with some veg! Google chinese food and cook them yourself! Real easy, start with stir…

Sweet potatoes, kabocha squash, corn, cabbage/carrot slaw, or just have another veggie side? If you need carbs maybe try some quinoa? Or maybe a nice filling soup?

1. Patience 2. Positivity 3. Learn to love yourself regardless 4. As long as you let go, move on, and pick yourself up, you still have a fighting chance 5. This is not a competition 6. I don't need to lose as fast as possible 7. I didn't have to sustain on that little and worked that much 8. You don't have to be great to…

I'm not repulsed by fast food but I don't like the taste of oil/oily/greasy foods. It's just how I've changed my taste buds through the years of dieting... I love and can eat tons of choc, cake and the like (basically sweets or anything you can't taste the oil even if it uses a whole lot of it) but the taste of oil like…

I'd have to disagree with this. Meal frequency and timing do not matter, it's total calories that count for weight loss. For optimal body composition, I believe macros do matter too. Eating frequently may help some to keep within their caloric goals but it is not necessary to lose weight. OP maybe share your height,…

Why don't you try eating a little more? Maybe say up your daily caloric goal by 100cals, and see if you feel less hungry? You shouldn't be feeling hungry all the time if you're eating at a reasonable deficit! Are you very active/do regular intense work outs? Are you stressed? Are you getting enough sleep? How are your…

Aww this is too cute!!! You guys look amazing! Congrats :')

Yay!!! I love water so I didn't need the lemon, I down water like mad hot or cold!!! But the lemon wakes me up in the morning, and gives me a vitamin C boost ;) I control myself from drinking too much because constantly having peeing urges is annoying lol!!
-
a slice of lemon :) or soak a cucumber in a pitcher of water overnight! I find cold water the easiest to drink!

How did you lose the weight in the first place? Was it through a very low calorie diet and/or overworking yourself or a reasonable calorie deficit? If it were the first then you might be suffering the side effects of deprivation! If it were the latter then I'd say focus on the positives and making gradual progress. Little…

Binging is a battle you (and I) have to fight constantly. It is daunting and yes I have many times wanted to just give up and eat everything I want all the time. But so what if you get binges here and there? You also have those good days in between, and as you press on and continue picking yourself up after a binge you…

It's a combination of comfort, depression, habit and the sort. It is emotional. It is a disorder. It is like anorexia. Nobody understands psychological problems well. I think I know where you're coming from but since tone can't be conveyed virtually, it can come across a little harsh, like you're insinuating that comfort…
-
Maybe try daikon radish/carrot/cucumber/cabbage slaws and the sort? Pickled veggies are also yummy!! Most of them require sugar, mirin (sweet rice wine), vinegar and the sort!! Maybe you could tell about what veggies you like so that others know what sort of recipes to share? :) A sample recipe would be something like…

Not so much healthy eating but more of eating lesser. I have problems controlling how much I eat, and I tend to eat quite a bit of carbs too.
-
I so agree with this! I used to get frustrated with people telling me about how you have to starve like crazy to lose weight or not eat past 5pm or all that crap... Now I just ignore and not say anything because they are so doubtful about stuff I say and that just irritates me haha. If they don't wanna learn, why should I…

I really liked reading this!! I am the same, I cannot do cheat days because I'll abuse them! And YES healthy foods tastes really good!! Congrats on the amazing progress and transformation!!! Great inspiration :)

While I'm not sure about the lifting, I'm almost certain the 4hours of sleep has to do alot with feeling weak. In addition you are working out quite a bit. I know I get really groggy and lethargic when I run on little/no sleep for a long time regardless of how much I eat and/or exercise. If possible, sleep more. Else,…

Eating 500 calories was in the past when I was suffering with anorexia and bulimia :/ I'm definitely eating way more right now!! Struggling with binge eating to be exact... But anyways, I haven't had my thyroid checked, but am pretty sure it's fine because I started losing again when I increased my calories from 500 and/or…

This. You initially married him because he accepted your daughter, but now it looks like your daughter ain't very happy with her 'father' too. If you're not intending to work on it, then you're no different or even better off single.

To burn more, increase the length or intensity of your workouts! Almost any other activity burns more than walking, per minute. You could start with running maybe? Also, when you try something out of your comfort zone, it will be tough at first. But that is the only way you can improve your fitness levels! It will get…

Firstly, it depends on how many calories per day of juice you had. If you had more than 1000calories, the weight gain will not be that drastic once you upped your calories. Whatever changes you make to your diet, you have to keep it up for life to maintain it. Unless you are going to maintain eating the calories you did on…

A cute little tee and the adidas curved-cut shorts I have! I used to like wearing it at home/dorms because it kinda shows off my figure and enhances my strengths (small waist, thin arms, collarbones) and complements my thicker in proportion legs!! It's also my default comfy homewear and I can't wait to wear them without…

Awwww :') Reading this made me feel so happy inside! These things make me regain hope for love.. I hope I find true love someday too!

There is no need to stop eating by 7pm as meal timing and frequency does not matter, as long as you have a calorie deficit. If you really don't want to eat past 7pm though, the only way is to get hang in there and force yourself to curb the urge. You can try gum, water, fruit, non fat yoghurt, a few pieces of dark choc,…

His theory kinda doesn't make sense if you look at anorexics who try to eat as little as possible and move as much as possible and still continue to lose weight, and thus have a pretty low body fat level, even if not at athlete body fat level, right? I've been there, eating 500cals or less per day, walking A LOT, and…

My workouts sound so boring and normal in comparison lol. I do at least 30minutes but usually do 1hour of workout daily. I usually walk up and down stairs and/or run (if there's good weather!). I sometimes add in a little HIIT stairs or interval running to mix things up! I don't have access to a gym so the only heavy…
