[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have lost weight using Myfitnesspal before. The problem is, I always always always gain it all back because it is not sustainable. I have this mindset of "I need to weigh/measure out and log every last exact gram of food that enters my mouth"- which is not realistic because, you know, I'm not always at home when I eat and I can't pull out my food scale at a restaurant and weigh my salmon. LOL. It's just a mental block that means calorie counting is not going to work for me. I have a significant amount of weight to lose (i'm 5'7" and 240 pounds. No judgment please.) But then I also have this mental block of like...if you're not precisely counting calories you can't lose weight! I like the control that comes with knowing exactly how many cals I'm eating for cals in cals out. But it's not feasible for me. But...I need to lose weight. If you've lost weight without cal counting (like...a lot)...tell me about your experience. I will not do intermittent fasting, keto, etc. [/quote] What you need to lose is your excuses. You are very obese because you over eat. You are probably someone that in order to maintain a healthy weight will have to calorie count. I’ve calorie counted for years. We ALL gravitate towards the same things. I’ve been counting for so long I know what a good portion size is and know when I’m lying to myself. I can only eat 1700cal a day to maintain. I know exactly what I can eat for a 400cal breakfast, a 500cal lunch and a 500cal dinner. I then get 300csl in snacking. I also know I can get a potbelly salad for 485 cal and know if I want to indulge in chick fil a for lunch I need to keep my breakfast at 250 cal. You need the structure of calorie counting because you sure as hell won’t be able to stick to a no carb diet If you are eating at restaurants so often this is holding you back no diet in the world is going help you. Chronic restaurant food is not something a healthy person can indulge in constantly. Ina nutshell drop the excuses or accept your size.[/quote]
