Breakfast slump 3 hours post - advice?
I am generally woken early. My day starts with 3-4 cappuccinos made with skimmed milk(1 pint altogether). I used to have cereal but now have a protein bar Atkins. Today I also had 2 slices seeded bread toast and an apple. Three hours later I felt awful. I initially switched from cereal (porridge milk and nuts) as I thought…

Oops I binged
I woke up early worrying about work, and switched on the lap top, had few creamy coffees then raided the biscuits. Then I Started snacking on the kids sugary cereal (treat cereal for the weekend). I felt great at the time. It’s odd I could go for days ignoring these foods and not tempted. A night of little sleep and a bit…

Holding off eating until mid morning or 12?

Finding it really tough/ mild depression.
When I was younger I could “get into the zone”. Now I must say, I find moderating kcal intake challenging. I eat when stressed and bored.

I’m doing a little research about the effects of fluoxetine (Prozac) on appetite. I have a family member who went onto fluoxetine and they gained a lot of weight.

Binge eaters only. Loving food, too much, managing stress hormone over earing
I love food. In the morning I think about my breakfast, then a snack then my lunch then my tea. It’s frustrating as as my stress levels increase or hormones (monthly time) go out of whack I just want the eat, a lot. I want to eat when I get in from work and it’s gotten worse recently. I have young children so can’t just go…

Today: Skimmed milk, 1 pint and a protein bar at breakfast…

I really struggle with tiredness, low mood and insatiable appetite before monthly time. It starts about two weeks before but the week leading up to it is a real struggle. I wake up thinking of food! Then, back to normal once literal phase is over. Obviously this is preventing me from getting where I want to be an…
