I've been on mfp since 2011. I'm only 20lbs down from where I started. I've gained back the weight so many times I suffer binge eating disorder.

My goal is to hit around 100g in 1200 calories. Easiest way I've done it is by making protein the staple of my meals. Have a look here for example meals. 10-12pm - grilled banana with greek yoghurt and protein powder 3-5pm - chicken omelette 6-8pm - tuna salad 10-12am - fish with refried beans (black beans, butter and…

Without a doubt, yes. I very much speak from personal experience. Around October 2016 to December/January 2017 I lost about 10lbs without exercise. I work in retail and it was around the Christmas period so I had absolutely no time to work out. I still counted calories though and I managed to get down to 117lbs from 127lbs.

First thing in the morning, after you pee and before you eat. My morning routine: - Wake - Pee (I suffer IBS-C so no morning poop for me! Or no poop at all for that matter. :() - Wash hands, wash face, brush teeth - Weigh self - Breakfast Weighing yourself after you eat or drink anything gives you a completely unreliable…

Silicone spatula Probably a weird choice, but it works so well at getting everything out of a bowl or whatever you use it with. It "licks" the bowls/pans cleaner than we could! :D

Consume your calories however you lie. When you eat doesn't matter as much as how much you eat! I usually save all my calories for 7/8pm which is when I actually have time to eat.

Speak to a doctor. Most people here can advise for those who have a BMR between 1000 and 2000. Because yours is higher than what most of us are used to, I think the general rules might be different.

I do it all the time at home. It's my favourite workout. Just get a yoga mat and make sure you watch yourself and you're careful with your body when you're doing it. In case you're a little doubtful on the yoga mat, I feel I have to mention that it definitely is a necessity for those who do yoga frequently. I went two…

Plastic containers will be fine for more liquidy dishes like soups/chili. What I now do is I when I buy mince (about 1kg of beef mince) I cook it all, let it cool, and then put 1 or 2 serving size amounts in sandwich bags, and then freeze it. I prefer sandwich bags to freezer bags because they're smaller. With burgers (I…

My LCHF Pinterest board (It says LCHF but they are high protein too! It's more like LCHFHP. o:)) Healthy recipes board These are still low carb, but not as low as my LCHF board which is mostly suited to a keto diet.

You can't eat endless amounts of protein and fat unless your goal is weight gain. I more than likely suffer gluten intolerance (having a blood test tomorrow to rule out celiac's) so I've been going low carb/high fat/moderate protein for the last few weeks and I find I'm eating more and actually enjoying the foods I'm…

Very, very, very, very, very, very, very true. It's mostly to do with insulin and blood sugar levels. Refined carbs are whole grains that have basically been bleached so all the good nutrients and fiber have gone completely. Whole grains are higher in fiber, vitamins and nutrients. They're excellent for your body and your…

Could be a whoosh effect, water weight loss, or just a looot of fat/muscle loss. It happens from time to time.

You might not notice any change, but those around you will. You're used to your body - you see it every day. Change will be unnoticeable to you until something happens, like you put on a pair of your old pants and realise how much looser they are now. I recently went from 144lbs to 130lbs and haven't noticed any change at…

You're over thinking it. In the most basic sense it means "control your diet, fatty!" To different people it means different things. Any smart person who has done their research (so, basically everyone on MFP) will know how important counting calories is for weight loss so to them this phrase means "count calories and…

I'm Asian so I keep my Asian clothes just because they're crazy expensive. They're really easy to tailor so I do that myself. With my other clothes, I've given most of my old stuff to charity but I keep my favourites even though they're a little big for me. Big clothes on small people look good depending on how they're…

Your meals are very carb-heavy. I'd recommend joining Pinterest and checking out their recipes for ideas on protein-based recipe. What are your macros set at?

That is pretty slow. You may have hit a plateau?

If you really want a change you're going to have to learn to get around your hatred and find a way of eating them. Curry them (I use a reduced fat/calorie butter instead of oil in my curries) if you need to or make veggie burgers or whatever, just make sure you find a way to consume them. Sure, people can and do lose…
