Have you been both overweight and underweight?
What do you think is more offensive, people commenting about you being too big or people commenting about you being too skinny? I’m neither overweight or underweight but I don’t think “skinny shaming” could ever compare to the abuse that fat kids and adults receive. Being skinny is still praised worldwide and even if you…

Losing weight if you have eating disorder tendencies?
Hey guys, I’m wondering if anyone has any experience with this or knows any good advice. I’ve struggled with disordered eating habits for a while (excessive restriction, binging, purging etc) and it’s pretty easy for me to slip back into serious self-loathing and self-abuse when it comes to my diet. But I have gained a lot…

Controlling intake at uni food hall?
Hello, so I’m currently living in residence at university and have a meal plan, which grants me access to a buffet-style food hall 7 days a week. I’ve really been struggling to get my eating right; the menu is always changing and there’s always desserts available which I fall victim to, and end up blowing all my calories…

BED?
I am literally incapable of eating normal portions. It’s never just a couple strawberries, it’s the whole box, even if I put them in a bowl I will always go back for more. I will eat until I am physically in pain every single day and I am quickly putting on weight. I’m a normal weight right now but it won’t be long before…

Hunger sensation even after eating?
Hey guys, this is a problem that I’ve experienced on and off the last 2 years or so. So I’ll eat a meal or snack and then within half an hour I’ll get this feeling in my stomach as if I’m extremely hungry which quite often leads to me eating more until I feel literally stuffed. Obviously not good for weight loss or health.…

Weight gain instead of loss?
So some background; I bought this dress for my graduation when I was at a lower weight than usual (F18, 5’11, 150lbs) and then over the last month or two I’ve put on about 10 pounds and my dress no longer zips up. I have about a month to lose it again if I want the dress to fit so I’m very stressed about the whole thing.…

How to get abs?
So I’m female, 5’11 and about 157 pounds (goal of 150) and I’ve kind of made a goal for myself to have somewhat visible abs by about February. Is this a reasonable time frame? Also, besides losing weight and doing crunches/twists etc does anybody have advice for how to define your stomach? I’d really appreciate it.

Late night snacking tip!
I’ve discovered something. If you’re craving something crunchy and salty (AKA chips) at night (or whenever) just have a few pickles!! And they’re only like 10 calories a piece. Been eating a bunch and they really satisfy that craving. Hope this helps somebody.

Shouldn’t I be losing more weight??
I’m a 5’11 157 pound female and I’ve been eating around 1200 calories or less and also working out without eating back burned calories, and I only lost 0.2 pounds this week. Frustrated because I’m constantly hungry and I wish it was paying off more. Any advice?

Disordered eating habits
I’m quickly losing hope, I don’t think I’ll ever be able to lose weight. Something must be wrong with me because I can’t stay under my calories for one day without binging and wanting to purge and restrict. I keep gaining weight. I feel hopeless and embarrassed of myself. I’m desperate for any advice.

What’s wrong with me
So for the last couple months I’ve been continually overeating and gaining back all the weight I lost last year. I keep telling myself I’m gonna get back into it but I can’t even manage a few days and I binge my way through thousands of calories. I think going vegetarian in January might have something to do with it but I…

Peanut butter addiction?
I know it sounds funny but it’s actually becoming quite a problem for me. A while ago I discovered a love for peanut butter and started eating it almost every day; with fruit, sandwiches, the lot. Now I just eat it out the jar with a spoon. I think it’s contributed a lot to my recent regaining of weight, and if I go a day…

Can’t stay on track
I started counting calories last year and lost about 20 pounds over the summer. I attempted maintenance in the fall because I was happy with my weight and eventually put on almost all the weight back over the holidays. Now I’m trying to lose it again but I just can’t stay under my calorie goal like I used to. Any advice?

Why did I gain?
So I've been losing weight successfully by eating 1200 calories. I recently reached my goal (5'10, 140 lbs) and so I decided to increase my intake slightly to 1400. I woke up 2 pounds heavier today. I ate lower than my maintenance, so why would I put on weight, even if it's just water?

Wrong calorie goal displayed??
So I have my calorie goal set as 1200 cals, but in my food diary it says my limit is 1700, my maintenance. Anyone else have this problem/know how to fix it?
