I have been overweight so I HAVE to use time-restricted feeding as mentioned above to keep my weight down and it likely helps with a chronic illness. Read Valter Longo.

Once you've gained 60 pounds and then lose it, you can never eat a regular amount of food again. That is just the way it is.

That's why I am very careful not to give my child hangups about food because it is so much harder to stay healthy once you gain a lot of weight EVER.

What is Russian skinny? Skinnier than the rich women here?

I lived there for six years. Russian skinny is MUCH skinnier than American skinny: long, graceful bodies that are naturally quite thin, but the ones who marry oligarchs and minor business men diet to become even slimmer, and they take plastic surgery to a whole new level: the Botox is meant to be strong and visible, and they like their giant filled lips as big as possible, to the point that looked cartoonish to us. My dh once picked up ds at the international school and then announced that the oligarch wives who were waiting for their kids all looked like they were wearing those huge wax lips we used to get as kids around Halloween. Those women's bodies look great forever, but their faces age at a shocking rate, probably due to the fact that smoking is almost universal among them and they drink a lot. However, you also see a lot of normal (ie, poor) Russian women walking around the city, and many of them have enviable slim bodies (natural, but also enhanced by smoking). Of course there are plenty of fat Russian women too, but there does seem to be that naturally thin body type that is more common there. Russian men in general become chubby and drink a LOT, which is why they die so much sooner than Russian women, and also why Russian women who want to marry a man who isn't quite so much of an alcoholic as the drunk who smacked her mother around need to remain hot to compete over the relatively few good marriage prospects available.

I eat protein (eggs or fish) for breakfast, and a glorious heaping dish of pasta that I cook for myself for lunch, then protein and vegetables for dinner. Unlimited berries and sliced raw veggies for snacks any time. I drink water, coffee, and whatever I feel like juicing.

If I stopped running, I would have to give up my pasta, and I can't do that. Runner's high and pasta bring me joy. Plus my breath doesn't stink.

I don’t get the breath comment... bulemia?
