Managed nineteen hours, broke the fast with soup and crusty buttered bread. Beautiful
Doing a liquid fast today (technically started last night)… broth, tea, clear jellies and things like kombucha are allowed

Not to be tmi but when you go to the bathroom in the morning and just clear out… such a great way to start the way and so validating that you made good choices the day before 😅

Think you eat too much to have a problem?
Many active people (women included) eat 3000+ calories a day and stay plenty lean.
The recommended daily calorie intake is 2000 for women and 2500 for men.
The recommended daily calorie intake for weight loss is 1500 for women and 2000 for men.
A 5-year-old needs about 1400 calories or more every day.
The minimum daily calorie intake for a long-term diet without medical supervision is 1200 for women and 1800 for men. Eating less than that eventually leads to starvation mode (a real–yes, real–state of biological stress characterized by decreased metabolism, increased cortisol production, and heart, brain, organ, bone, and muscle damage).
A 2-year-old needs about 1000 calories or more every day.
Most people can’t even imagine eating 1000 calories in a day. You’ll get 1,357 Google results if you search for the exact phrase “1000 calories is way too low” or “1000 calories is way too little”…but you’ll get even more results if you Google the same phrases for 1200 calories, because few people consider dipping below 1200.
A 3-digit daily calorie intake puts you at high risk for binge-eating, slowed metabolism, bone and muscle loss, nutritional deficiencies, gastrointestinal issues, infertility, hair loss, mood swings, and depression. Oh–and sudden death.
900 calories is less than what a completely sedentary, 5'0", 80 lb, 70-year-old woman burns daily (keeping in mind that your metabolism slows with age).
A very low calorie diet, also known as a starvation diet, is 800 calories a day or less. It is prescribed by doctors to obesity patients who need to lose weight quickly, is specially formulated to be nutritionally complete, and is monitored by medical professionals to prevent sudden cardiac arrest and death. It is considered an extreme diet.
600 calories a day or less is literal starvation.
500 calories is less than the daily calorie needs of the average 1-month-old.
400 calories is less than the daily calorie needs of the average newborn.
300 calories is less than what the adult brain alone burns every day.

I find the whole “wear a bikini! no one is even looking at you!” mentality on tiktok so fucking bizarre because you know who’s looking?
Me. I’m looking. If you’re fat, I’m looking. If you’re thin, I’m looking. I’m looking if you’re fit, I’m looking if you’re not, I’m looking whatever your gender. I am looking. I look at literally everyone. Everyone on the beach is getting a look. Because I am a naturally curious person and I want to see what and who is around me. Sometimes I’m judging, sure, sometimes I’m looking for my safety, sometimes I’m just bored but I am LOOKING at you.
So the whole No One Is Looking mantra is insane to me. Because I know someone is looking. Someone is always looking!!!!!

I don’t understand how pubs and restaurants are allowed to get away with having single meals that are on the menu listed at 1,300 calories a plate. And that’s probably an under-estimate. I mean, the fuck???? That’s my entire BMR. On one plate.

When someone three inches shorter than you reveals that they’re three stone (42lb) heavier than you and you realise just how easily that could happen… ngl it’s exhausting? Like she’s fat and unhappy (she’s on a weight loss journey) and having to cut out so much of the stuff she enjoys. When she could have just watched her diet three stones ago and not ended up in this state of misery where she can’t eat an Easter egg and has to religiously walk 10k a day
There’s no rest for the person on a weight loss journey. I refuse to end up like that.

It’s still a deficit but not as much as it should be. Difficult not to get frustrated but slow and steady wins the race!!!

Screaming over this person (who is being roasted good on Twitter)
A protein cookie has 192 cals and 25g protein. Yes it’s low in fibre but that’s why you eat veggies and fruit. A 200cal snack for a 25g protein pay off is not all a person eats in a day.
And that shredded cabbage looks disgusting btw

it’s kinda bogus how majority of excess vitamins and minerals are just filtered out by your body but excess calories get turned into fat

Spent three days away for work eating and drinking with friends and colleagues and on one day alone I consumed 2700 calories. Don’t get me wrong I had a great time and ate some delicious things but it also felt like I’d ruined my progress (and I couldn’t work out for those three days either)
Back on the horse IMMEDIATELY now I’m home. Away again this week coming but I’m alone so I’ll be staying well below my maintenance calories and trying to max out on protein and work out where I can

My mother has always been overweight and is apparently trying to lose the latest stone she’s put on since Christmas and it’s impossible to listen to her
She stays in the house all day apart from going for one short walk. That is the crux of her issue. She doesn’t move enough. Her maintenance is probably something like 1200.
But every single suggestion anyone comes up with for moving more is met with resistance. Oh I get pains. Oh I hurt my shoulder once. Oh I don’t like the gym
Ok so you need to make peace with being fat then because if you’re not in a a deficit, the weight is going nowhere woman

Weighed myself today for the first time since Christmas, and I’m below the 9st mark for the first time in about a decade.
Fucking thrilled tbh, I know weight isn’t everything and I do want to keep building muscle but I feel so much better for all this effort.
