Hello Everyone.
A question I would appreciate some help on, please. How friendly is your diet? What I mean is it a radical change from your "old normal" way of eating? Or is it a variation?
I don't want to end up on a yo-yo weight up and down. So I would like to know from people how friendly your diet is to long term sustainability of your weight loss.
Thank you!

Thank you Mbhali :) I think the harder part is going to be sustaining the weight loss, so I don't want to do anything too radical.
My diet is also "-ish"... Cut most of the added sugar, but still chocolatey-ish. Not giving that up - ever! - but limiting the carbs, so carb-ish too.

I just track my calories, when I first started I ate the same thing everyday (not sustainable) now, every week I introduce new foods and mix my meals up to create variations.. I do have cheat meals and when I feel like having something I indulge in moderation. It’s important to find what works for you, don’t be too hard on yourself. Hope that helps?

Biggest change for me is how much I eat, which is now between 1300-1600 calories... I was quite mindless before, eating waaay too many calories too often. So now I practice IF 16:8 and eat two meals a day + snacks but I don't really avoid any particular foods. It's very flexible for my lifestyle & has helped me maintain for much longer than any formal eating plans I have previously tried.

Portion control and planning meals in advance. I don't cut anything out. Any left over calories goes towards a treat (either candy or alcohol... depending on what kind of day I had 😂)

@JustAnge30. Thank you so much much and yes, it does help. :) I think variety has helped as well as learning to actually eat set meals, rather than eating throughout the day and then sitting down for dinner. Counting calories does help because I have some idea as to what I am eating.

@Shereen. OMW! I had ZERO idea of how many calories in anything until I signed up here. I am shocked at what I was putting in my mouth mindlessly! Probably around 500 calories a day on sweet stuff: coke, chocolate, sweets, chips, cake. Shocker! Counting does help as I need to plan to stay within my limit - and a treat needs to go in there too. I had a Magnum Death by Chocolate for lunch once... It counts!
So much more important to concentrate on healthy vegetable options and COUNT because it is really working for me. No more eating without thinking.

@Yvette.. Haha I can always make an excuse for a glass of red or a candy bar! But it counts - for me it goes in FIRST and I can have it later :) ... I plan around my treats. (My bad!)
Portion control is something I need to work on so thanks for that reminder. I do plan in advance as to what to eat / cook and it does help, so thank you very much for the tips :)

@Msalicat1 Yes! Thank you. I definitely want to do this for health reasons. I have NO health complaints, but I am in my early 40s and I need to change to prevent problems later on. Thank you - I will schedule in a cheat meal, because now it is generally a cheat snack and I do feel somewhat cheated. Maybe I can "save" calories on one day and then cheat on the other. :)

Yvette Bam I am with you on this one. I track calories and left over goes to candy or wine. I eat everything but try to eat in moderation. I don't cut out any food groups as this must be sustainable for me in the long run. Because of this weight loss is very slow 200g a week I would say or even less but it is a marathon not a sprint

I also try not to eliminate any food groups. I have seen a great change by monitoring my calories, couple that with gym, I should reach my goal soon🙏

Hi. I started years ago very overweight. I followed counting calories, and I went from 108kgs to 87kgs. It took about 2 years, but then I gave up and had too much nice nice. Now I'm 94.6kgs, and I am just starting again. I'm 54. For me it's not about looking sexy or anything like that, just feeling more healthy and more comfortable. I WILL be sticking to it again from now on. Xxx xxx xxx.🤗
