Looking for weight loss buddies and motivation
I'm not looking to just add friends and then never speak other than liking each others status updates. I really hope to find friends that can chat with me on a daily basis about our lives, our progress, etc. So that we can keep each other on track and motivate each other. I've been trying and failing for 2 years now, and…

Calories vs macros?
Just wondering, which is more important to stick to for weight loss? (I know both are important but out of curiosity) if I ate 1500 calories of junk like processed food vs 1500 calories of clean food, will there be a difference in the weight lost? How important exactly are macros in terms of losing body fat? (This is a…

How do you cut food cravings?
I just can't stop thinking about food and acting on those impulses even when I'm full. Food kinda just acts like an appetizer to me and I still feel the urge to eat after a meal. Even when I eat meals with more protein, the only way I can truly stop the temptation to snack is by eating a large amount of that snack before…

Paleness and dizziness
Since young, I've always been pretty pale. Not pale as in fair skinned, because I am pretty tan from swimming as a child, but pale as in looking bloodless in the face and, idk how to describe it, just one shade? It's like I don't have pink or red in my cheeks and lips, just one shade of yellowy beige and people often ask…

Going 9-12 hours between breakfast and lunch?
So I have breakfast at around 6.20am on weekdays, then I head off to campus. Depending on the day, I'll have lunch at 3+pm and sometimes I'll skip lunch completely and have dinner at 6 or so when I reach home. It's because I can't bring packed lunches out since the lunches I'd normally eat (chicken, eggs, cooked veggies,…

Cheat meals for weight loss?
Is it true that having a cheat meal once in a while is able to help you lose weight? Or will you lose weight faster without cheat meals? I've read a bunch of articles about hormones released when you lower your calorie intake and when you have a higher calorie meal, and a lot of these articles say that cheat meals boost…

Frequent night leg cramps
Not really weight loss related but it's something that I'm pretty worried about. For the past few years (maybe for the past 3-5 years?) I've been dealing with night leg cramps. It's those excruciating leg cramps that happen in the middle of the night when you're sleeping. In the past, it wasn't that frequent and only…

Does eating certain foods at certain mealtimes affect weight loss?
I've been wondering about this for a while. Does eating certain foods at certain timings in the day affect weight loss? For example, will weight loss be affected if I eat oatmeal for dinner instead of breakfast? What difference does it make to switch around the foods I eat at certain mealtimes? Currently I'm eating chicken…

Help, I have eating problems
I don't know if anyone will see this but here goes... I've been trying to lose weight for years now and I've only been gaining. I told myself I'd finally stop being unhealthy and actually work towards losing weight properly. It's currently about 4 months into that decision and I'm still at the same weight I started. This…
