    @applegold Yea I do feel that I’m in the right direction just by forming healthier habits in general, not that I’m crazy unhealthy or even over weight I’d just like to lose 10 pounds but sustainably. I’m not sure about my resources for therapy as I haven’t looked into it. Im not rlly sure if I...

    @applegold Thank you for this! I did take measurements a couple weeks ago but I’m waiting until a month from then to measure again. I haven’t taken photos but I’m gonna start tomorrow and I guess take monthly. I do notice slight differences in my face and when I wear certain pants but it...

    @eliiya I started logging my food today in an app called my plate it said it works with Apple Watch so I just decided to use it instead of my fitness pal it seems pretty legit and I’ll take it from there, I’m probably eating way more fat than I think. I’m from Montreal and it’s around that or a...

    @eliiya I’m also vegetarian! Before covid I was very into the gym and I’ve taken a couple classes on nutrition in uni so I have a pretty good understanding on food and what I need to fuel my body, I haven’t tracked macros since I’ve been veg so maybe I’ll try it just to see but for the most part...

    Please reassure me my home gym isn’t dumb

    @evachristine I would love to have a home gym!! It saves so much time and in the long run money. You don’t have to wait for machines or weights and it’s also cleaner :)

    @christiandad Okay I didn’t know you could use Fitbit to log calories. I usually use my fitness pal but I do have an Apple Watch. Do you have any recommendation on an app to use?

    @christiandad Awesome! Good for you. It definitely does sound sustainable that way. How do you calculate your weekly calories? Just whatever ur daily is times 7?

    @christiandad I am definitely practicing being mindful. Since I have counted in the past I feel that I have a decent estimate of the calories in certain foods. I don’t log my calories but I do log everything I eat just to keep me mindful and I don’t beat myself up if I have an “unhealthy” food...

    @christiandad Thanks for the comment! You have the same mindset as me and I also have a google doc where I mark down my daily and weekly goals haha! overall goal is to just have a healthier lifestyle and I know the physical will come in time. I’m not super focused on the vacation but it would be...

    Is it true that you have to decrease your calorie intake as you lose weight?

    @ojiisanhikui For example yesterday, I went to yoga in the morning, I went on a 35 min walk (moderate pace) and did ballet for 1.5 hours and when I went to bed my Apple Watch told be I burned about 700 calories. This is a day with 3+ hours of exercise

    @rodneys Thanks for informing me! And don’t worry I don’t feel attacked I’m always open to learn something new. You’re 100% right about the prevalence of ED in weight loss and fitness though. I feel that where I am now in my journey I am able to do a lot of introspection and handle everything...

    @rodneys Okay no worries! I feel that I was exaggerating by saying I have binging tendencies and just trying to further explain my situation :) also yes I feel that counting calories becomes obsessive and unsustainable in general; not just for me (you can’t count calories for your whole life)...

    @rodneys I appreciate your response! I’ve never really thought about what you’re saying too much so it’s definitely good knowledge and important to learn about. I’ve counted calories in the past and stuck to it and lost weight healthily over about 5 months I just felt that it wasn’t sustainable...

    @rodneys Thank you. Yea I’m trying to be patient with the results I definitely feel better and notice slight changes as I am getting more physical activity and eating much cleaner. I don’t think I have a sever ed or anything I’ve just noticed that I have had binging tendencies in the past but...

    Hey everyone, so I guess I just need some encouragement right now. I’ve been trying to intuitively eat so as not to be obsessive over food (I have a binging problem) and working out for the past 6 weeks. From September-November I was eating out a lot and eating junk not really focusing on what I...
