Okay, I’m 5’3 189 pounds, my goal weight is 160. I am a 20 year old female
I struggle a lot with food noise, and have mental battles with food. Unhealthy foods are a comfort. But I’m trying to eat in a deficit without changing too much of my eating habits so that I don’t crash and burn and just give up on the deficit. So I’ve been eating somewhat the same despite smaller changes, less snacks, when I do eat fast food I eat less than I usually would and I track everything in my app. I make small switches for less calories. I’m trying to eat 1600 right now. My main problem is the mental battle. I’m almost afraid to eat now. I struggle with seeing food as anything other than numbers, I can’t enjoy food bc I get anxious seeing the numbers get less and less throughout the day. I am afraid of hunger, it makes me anxious to be hungry because I’m scared of fucking it up. How can I stay in the deficit and fight these mental battles I’m having? My goal in life is to be able to eat in a maintenance when I do lose the weight without having to track calories my entire life. I guess my goal is to just be able to eat less and do it naturally so I’m not so obsessive all of the time, but idk how to get there. Only on day 5 of actually trying but I’m scared. Any advice is appreciated
