I now eat what I want, I don't focus on a calorie limit but am usually in 1200-1300 range, I have taught my brain what it wants and craves now and is different than before. I follow a hunter gatherers diet eating all natural no processed foods except for protein bars, meats, cheeses, REAL butter and whatever else I feel…

Rule of thumb if it goes into your mouth, pull out your phone and log before you eat it, get in the habit of doing it and it's not bad.

I can do 1200 a day consistently, I wasn't logging for months and started recently and found I was at 1175 consistently and have since bumped it up to 1200-1300 a day, I have plenty of energy now, never drink coffee or energy drinks like I used to and can go longer and harder than I used to, long story short protein is…

This is a touchy subject for sure but I figure I might as well give a bit of in site as to how this issue is viewed threw my eyes, I have been a big guy my entire life, when it comes to women I am absolutely not attracted to a women of my size and the women I was attracted to wasn't attracted to me which I didn't blame…

Sounds like you need to fix some things first, take all the things that upset you and get rid of them, than stop worrying about the rest and stay calm, you binge to release dopamine, it's the feel good chemical in your brain, when you feel bad you feel the need to release more dopamine and you have taught yourself the…

I didn't read all the responses but I read the main post and I will say your spot on. I have found that I had to retrain my brain what to crave, not letting it even think about cheating because that wasn't a option any more, I cut certain foods out completely, I used to eat and binge on pasta, it's filling, cheep and can…

You need to understand a few things also, when people binge it's more of a food addiction just like a drug addiction you eat for your brain to release dopamine, the more you eat the more dopamine is released, usually bingers have a smaller production of dopamine so you instinctively eat more to get the same effect, This is…

I am always on my program and am here for someone if you need tips or advise, I'm on a hunter gatherer base program which is lower cal, lower carb and high protein. I'm very easily only eating 1100-1400 cals a day going over on my iron and vitamins, around 56g of fat, 100+g of protein and usually around 110 carbs. gained…

Stop looking at yourself in the mirror, listen to what people on here have to say and read about how they were successful, come up with a plan and start your own program and after a few months look at the new person in the mirror, it doesn't all happen at once so be patient and try not to get discouraged.

Try to revamp your diet and exercise routine, pack more protein in and as much or more cals, most importantly stop majority of cardio and just focus on weight training, eat nothing but Eggs, Turkey lunch meat, skinless chicken, green vegetables and low carb/cal high protein bars, Cut out processed foods, breads, pasta,…

I haven't been in a gym in 7 or 8 years, my only reason for working out is to keep or gain muscle and lose only fat, a good 85%-90% of your weight loss happens in the kitchen and not the gym. Sit ups, push ups, planking, squats ext can all be done in the comfort of your own house and no need to spend the money on a gym…

There are many tools a person can use to lose weight, it all depends on that person, I really thought about surgery, I was big my entire life and maxed out at 375lbs which is morbidly obese, I had tried a lot of times to lose weight and ended up gaining more. Surgery for me was more than I was willing to do, the possible…

You can never have too many friends

It's tough but first find a substitute to binge on, I use vegetables, when the urge to binge hits I make lots of green beans or corn, start in than I will get tired of eating and stop, if you only let yourself binge on healthy food not only will healthy food taste better but the urge to binge will slowly go away for…

That's fantastic! I see more and more of these, seems a lot of people I know has made the change to loose weight and get healthy, I started my journey just over a year ago, broke the triple digit weight loss but last few months fell off the wagon and lost it, I will be back in triple digits soon enough. Lol great job! It's…

Feel free to add me, I have lost over 80lbs so far with another 80-100lbs togo

Most importantly you need to make working out fun, I lost almost 85lbs net and gained 40+ lbs of muscle without stepping into a gym, what I do may now work for all but I still have a long way to go lol add me if you like.

First off weight loss on a fast pace is dangerous, you can do major organ damage if you loose too fast, no more than 2-3lbs per week, most doctors recomend no more than 1-2lbs a week. That being said I have been heavy all my life and the only thing that helped me loose so much so far is a complete lifestyle change! No more…

Very well said, I am on the same jurney of loosing 100+ pounds. I have my own motivation that may not work for everyone, mine was a picture of my future, I see myself with a loving, beautiful Christian wife with a few healthy kids running around the house. Right now the only obtainable part of my picture is the house, but…

Just my 2 cents, I have been over weight my entire life, being a kid hungry and being told I have had enough when I just got started played a role on my weight, when I got older and could eat whatever I wanted was great, nobody to tell me when I had enough is when I put on most of my weight, im a person that is never…

There is 2 I take Phentermine 37.5mg and Cr-Picolinate 200mg the Picolinate is more for fat loss the phentermine is more for energy and hunger suppresser, I have been taking them on and off for the last 3-4 years, they really do help me, takes the nasty hunger edge off while giving some needed energy, as long as I loose…
