I just wanted to possibly support someone if they’re only starting their weight loss journey. Unfortunately, my relationship with food is deranged, I have anxiety issues and bad genetics too (yes, I do believe in bad genetics in relationship to your metabolic “profile”). I did lose a lot of weight in the past and I did gain a lot too. The hardest part always was the part that’s in my HEAD. There are so many valid ways to lose weight. I believe the best method is a healthy combination of all (reduction in carbs, calories, some intermittent fasting, some exercise etc etc). The hardest part is to pass through desperation of the “Day One” of weight loss. I managed to pass through Day One this time and after a week I control my appetite so much better. It only took 1-2 days for insane cravings to calm down. I still feel uncomfortable at times since I’m on 1200 kcal for a limited amount of time (plan to increase exercise and calories later). Yesterday I went to a barbecue party and enjoyed ALL the food. I didn’t fall out of wagon because I managed to eat a reasonable amount of food and STILL seen my weight decreased next morning. It’s so liberating to know that you enjoyed your food and not coming back home bloated and heavy. My long term goal is to be free of any overeating episodes, with or without weight loss. It’s absolutely true that you can actually enjoy food even the “forbidden” kind without overdoing it. Good luck everyone! I hope to be in my ideal weight this time next year.
