Hey! I just wanted to check in and say; it is going really well!
I now feel like I am "on habit" because the cravings for seconds and sweets are gone - most of the time - and if I feel them they aren't as strong as before. If I keep this up until the end of the week this would be my first 3-green ...

Re: Newbie here and scared as h3ll!

This just seems too easy to be true, because it's too much common sense for even me to handle.


Yes, it sounds easy. But don't mistake simple for easy! For me it has been very hard at times - and it still is. Because when food just becomes food again you have to deal with the stuff that this ...

This!
This really helps. I think I want to live like this too, regardless of where this will take/leave me with my very idealistic weight goals. Thank you!

thank you Liz!
I think I will be back now. Had some bad weeks but I am glad that I kept tracking my failures and very few successes.

Is there someone who experiences the same pattern as I do?
I tend to have some very good weeks in a row, with very few failures. And then suddenly, I feel that I can ...

Well, usually my day looks something like this:

breakfast 10am
lunch 1pm
dinner 6pm

I had to work 6pm until midnight and I only get a 10minutes break to eat some sandwitch or something. But I know.. my body can perfectly go without food for 6-7hours, it's just that baking popcorn is pretty heavy ...

That does sound terrifying.. But between stimulus and response there will always be the factor 'human decision'.

Today I decided badly again. I had to work (baking popcorn for the cinema) 6 hours so I couldn't really have dinner. So I had some bread in between, but it obviously wasn't good enough ...

Had half a burrito for lunch and never got hungry again, but went ahead and had a light dinner at 8 p.m. It bothers me that I can't just let food go when I'm not hungry and/or that I don't get hungry for my three meals if I eat anything the slightest bit rich.

I know that. I am always baffled by ...

Hey! I experience the exact same pattern (losing and gaining about 4 pounds..) and I've been doing this for more than 2 months now.

I truly do hope so! I started obsessing about my weight at an age of 14-15. Now that I am almost 20, I am really sick of those food and diet-related thoughts and all the binge-eating that I can't imagine going on like this.
So.. that's why I can't put into words how grateful I am for finding this ...

I don't know what that was today, I had some cereal directly after dinner. Wasn't really hungry, but I felt kind of empty.
Next time I will just go and take a walk. So today was a failure. But I am glad that I left it at that.

I promised my sister to send her a message immediately in case I screw up. That way I created an instant "punishment" for eating snacks/sweets/seconds, that outrules the instand ''reward" I get from eating this stuff.

Since I did this I am doing much much better. Really makes me think twice!
