@sweetkf adjusting to eating more because you have a much higher TDEE is a completely different mentality to having to adjust to eating less. that’s literally the opposite concept of what this post is about. it’s not “perspective”

@hisjourney ah that’s rough, not worth it then unless the rash would have only been temporary

@hisjourney i’ve had a long history of psych medications and some of them made me gain a ton of weight. i’m currently on wellbutrin which actually helped suppress my appetite when i first started taking it. obviously between you and your doctor what is best for you but that is a medication that...

@honra75 isn’t it also true that it takes like 15 mins or something for our bodies to feel full after eating? whatever the number is, i feel like that’s enough time for an average height person to finish a typical portion sized meal and not over-eat while waiting to feel full. but like you said...

@dawn16 i’m working toward becoming more active but i’m not quite there yet. i used to be very sedentary and depressed. i no longer dread working out and i can make myself do it but i still don’t find myself motivated to do more than 30 mins of lifting/body weight x 4 days a week and walking 30...

@kabriana oh yikes i didn’t know that!! i know with my car that if i want my seat close enough for my feet to reach the pedals my knees are practically touching the panel under the steering wheel which is annoying. and don’t get me started on never being able to reach top shelves in the grocery...

@johnjs37 i have thought this as well. and it’s not just portion sizes at restaurants. it’s also the serving sizes on nutrition fact labels that are based on 2000 calories a day

@slant i second the person above! i lost 100 lbs from CICO with minimal exercise but i always gave myself the weekends off. didn’t go crazy on the weekends but just didn’t let myself worry out about counting

@lovelylavern this. i started tracking my sodium because i was eating a lot of vegan frozen meals and i had a rude awakening

@caritasium protein waffles sound good, what brand?

@jarjj70 if you make it, definitely include the water. the isolate powder makes it super thick without water

@dawn16 i made a smoothie today with: 8oz almond milk (1g P), 4oz water, 1 scoop banana soy protein isolate (True Nutrition brand) (28g P), 1 tbsp powdered pb (4g P), half a frozen banana (1g P) tasted like a mf milkshake it was so good. with 34g protein and 233 calories

@dawn16 i just discovered powdered peanut butter and it’s sooo good and so much less calories and fat
