[crimsonthornedrose]

So..

I had been gone from here because I wasn't doing great! I will explain more in a minute, but some good things have happened since I've been gone and some not so good things have happened!

Not so good things -

🌿 The stiff person flare that landed me in hospital lasted an entire month which is the longest it's ever lasted, and affected muscles which aren't usually affected.

🌿 My ataxia was then triggered extremely badly for the first time in years, and I had intense vertigo with loss of balance for about a week or two.

🌿 I had an emg and nerve test finally but I'm still recovering from the pain of the needle going in multiple muscles as it's really sore still and I can't raise my right arm most days!

🌿 I had to call 111 as I had extremely intense abdominal and back spasms coming in waves and vomiting all night long at one point. Not sure what it was my condition spread into my abdomen or inflammation or what.

Though it kicked me up the butt to overhaul my entire diet.

Good things -

🌱 I have an app with a neuro close to me, it had to be rescheduled because of the snow, but should hopefuly now be on my way to getting a firm treatment plan in place mainly from having to go into hospital and the tests, so something good came from it! 😄

🌱- Once that's done I will be getting myself an electric wheelchair instead of struggling up the hill each day on the school run etc! 😅

🌱 I will have my entire overdraft paid off in May this year finally 👌

🌱 I've lost total of 1st 10lb as of today and I'm doing really well with my weight loss journey! I'm really taking my health seriously for the first time in years and have overhauled my entire way of eating, I'm eating lots of organic veggies and fruits and making things compeltely from scratch. I have also stopped binge ordering takeout.

🌱 TMI - In completely cutting out my intolerances/allergens even with cross contamination and overhauling my diet. My pcos has got much better and for the first time in a few years my last period lasted two weeks instead of months! Usually I don't come on for months at a time, and then come on for months super heavy. So that's made me very happy! :)

🌱 I've decided to buy my sisters house that I'm currently in, we have talked about this and so from July I will be opening a lifetime ISA and the extreme saving will commence haha but I should be able to put down a deposit around 2027👌

🌱 I am currently dating someone and he's extremely sweet and lovely and I'm seeing him again in February, but right now my sons father doesn't have a car at the moment to look after our toddler, but he makes me happy so we will see how things go, I have high hopes as he gives me reciprocated energy I've wanted for a long time! 😅

🌱 I am super into home decor at the moment and super focused on making my home extremely lovely, definitely found my vibe which is very bright colours and a little retro/quirky - dopamine decor haha :3

🌱 Me and my toddler had the best time in his school holidays we did so much crafting, playing and having fun everyday haha it was great! 😁

What's been going on -

🌲 The reason I've been all over the place the past few years, is because I've been 100% certain I have bipolar. It's become more obvious to me as the years go by and I recognise my own behaviours and patterns. I've been in denial over it over the stigma that comes with it. One of my family members has it and I didn't like the way some other family members talked about them, which kind of made me try and make it anything but, super long pmdd, seasonal depression etc. But I can't be in denial any longer and I'm ready to seek the help I need.

🌱 I have an app this month with the doctor but will most likely be taking myself privately because I want to get on the right meds asap and it could take a long time with the NHS.. It's tough having to deal with constant euphoric highs and rock bottom lows every few weeks/months as I rapid cycle.

🌱 I am just coming out of a really severe hypomania phase (but tbh I did get my entire house organised and sorted, have been ontop of everything, super happy) but then now I've been coming out of it the past few days, I've been extremely over the top irritable, sad and just bleh.

🌱 But.. Today I feel very calm, normal, stable and happy again! More like my normal self. So hopefuly I will have a nice normal period before I crash back into depression, ha!

🌱But, I have downloaded this app to track moods so I can print it out bring it to my psychiatrist.

🌱I've also downloaded a journal that I can do voice notes and it transcribes it into writing. So when I am crashing I'm not babbling it all on here ha.

🌱I will get myself sorted no matter what before the middle of this year with it, but atleast now I can recognise when I'm actually having an episode and I'm trying my best to put things in place to help me, like batch cooking and getting as much done as possible during my high phases to benefit me during my depressive phases ha! 😊👌

🌱 I also don't get paid until later in the month now which is an extreme blessing because during my hypomania episodes and even depression (where I can binge order takeout) I now can't physically do that and during my hypomania phase I managed to screenshot everything I wanted to impulsively purchase, and I have a list of about 60 things. So thank god for the change in payment schedule. I am determined to stick to my budget per month.

🌱 I've been looking up a lot of self help stuff on YouTube for bipolar and have a lot of new ideas in ways to help myself in the meantime, plus the guy I'm dating is very understanding of this too, so I'm very happy ☺️

What is the right diet for losing fat?

The right diet for losing fat varies from person to person based on individual factors such as age, gender, weight, activity level, and any underlying health conditions. However, there are some general principles that can help:

Caloric Deficit: The most important factor in losing fat is to consume fewer calories than you expend. This creates a caloric deficit, prompting your body to burn stored fat for energy. You can achieve this by reducing your calorie intake, increasing your physical activity, or a combination of both.

Balanced Macronutrients: Your diet should include a balance of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Focus on whole, nutrient-dense foods such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats.

Protein Intake: Protein is crucial for preserving muscle mass while losing fat and can help you feel full and satisfied. Aim to include a source of protein in each meal, such as lean meats, poultry, fish, eggs, dairy products, legumes, tofu, or tempeh.

Healthy Fats: Include sources of healthy fats in your diet, such as avocados, nuts, seeds, olive oil, and fatty fish like salmon. These fats can help keep you full and support overall health.

Complex Carbohydrates: Choose complex carbohydrates over simple ones. Whole grains like quinoa, brown rice, oats, and whole wheat products provide fiber, which can aid in digestion and help you feel fuller for longer periods.

Portion Control: Be mindful of portion sizes to avoid overeating. Use smaller plates, measure your servings, and pay attention to hunger and fullness cues.

Limit Processed Foods and Added Sugars: Minimize your intake of processed foods, sugary snacks, and beverages as they tend to be high in calories and low in nutrients. Opt for whole, unprocessed foods whenever possible.

Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Sometimes, thirst can be mistaken for hunger, leading to unnecessary calorie consumption.

Meal Timing: Some people find success with intermittent fasting or eating within a specific window of time each day. Experiment with different meal timing strategies to see what works best for you.

Consistency and Patience: Losing fat takes time and consistency. Focus on making sustainable changes to your diet and lifestyle rather than seeking quick fixes.

Mindful Eating: Pay attention to your body's hunger and fullness cues. Eat slowly and mindfully, savoring each bite, and stop eating when you feel satisfied, rather than full.

Include Fiber-Rich Foods: Fiber-rich foods such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes can help regulate digestion, keep you feeling full, and support overall health.

Limit Liquid Calories: Be cautious of high-calorie beverages such as sugary sodas, fruit juices, and alcoholic beverages, as they can contribute to weight gain without providing satiety. Opt for water, herbal tea, or other low-calorie options instead.

Be Flexible: Allow for flexibility in your diet to accommodate social occasions or cravings. It's okay to enjoy treats in moderation, as long as they fit within your overall calorie and macronutrient goals.

Track Your Progress: Keep track of your food intake and progress toward your goals using a food diary, mobile app, or other tracking tools. This can help you stay accountable and make adjustments as needed.

Prioritize Sleep: Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep per night. Inadequate sleep can disrupt hunger hormones and metabolism, making it harder to lose fat.

Manage Stress: Chronic stress can lead to overeating and weight gain. Practice stress-reducing techniques such as mindfulness, meditation, yoga, or spending time outdoors to support your fat loss efforts.

Include Strength Training: Incorporate strength training exercises into your fitness routine to build and maintain muscle mass. Muscle tissue burns more calories at rest than fat tissue, so increasing your muscle mass can help boost your metabolism.

Stay Consistent: Consistency is key when it comes to fat loss. Stick to your healthy eating plan and exercise routine even on days when you don't feel motivated. Small, sustainable changes over time can lead to significant results.

Seek Support: Surround yourself with supportive friends, family members, or online communities who can encourage and motivate you on your fat loss journey

Having a support system can make it easier to stay on track and overcome challenges.

By incorporating these additional points into your fat-loss diet, you can optimize your efforts and increase your chances of success. Remember that what works best for one person may not work for another, so it's essential to find an approach that fits your individual preferences, lifestyle, and goals.

Before making any significant changes to your diet, it's a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional or a registered dietitian, especially if you have any underlying health conditions or dietary restrictions. They can provide personalized guidance tailored to your individual needs and goals.

As the fat person who lost weight "easily" I didn't, not at first. When you're overweight sometimes there really is more to it than just what you eat and how much. I couldn't lose weight no matter how hard I tried when I was on the Depo-Provera birth control. I was 115 before I started it. When I got off of it I went from 198 to 172 in just 2 months. That was my first plateu and that's when I started a dieting app. A month later I was 150 and that's when I hit my second plateu. To get lower than that I had to work for it. Every 20 lbs for me seems to be when I hit a plateu. What worked for me was different dieting and exercise methods. What worked for me won't always work for others. I should know. The same method doesn't always work for me forever and I've had to switch it up and that's without weight-loss comprising medications.

To the overweight people reading this, you are valid. Your Weight-loss struggles are valid. I wish you all the best. Your medical conditions and medications making it hard for you to lose weight aren't your fault.

Now to everyone regardless of your weight reading this, take care of yourself, and go drink some water.

💙🩵🦋✨My Skinny Plan and How I Lost 30+ Pounds✨🦋💙🩵

🔴❗️❌TW: ED, ANA❌❗️🔴

My plan:

Calorie Limits: Daily calorie limit is roughly 800, but absolutely no more than 1000. This is high restriction. There should also be one day a week or every 2 weeks where you eat a maintenance/metabolism diet. This calorie limit will be what is required to maintain your current weight. This will allow your body time to recover from the restriction and your metabolism will not stall.

Exercise: We know that the key to weight loss is expending more calories than you intake. With any type of restriction, you will be doing this without exercise. This is why exercise is not as important as your diet. I only do light exercise, like walking or light weight lifting.

Stay Consistent: Do not get discouraged. It will take time, but it will happen. Just keep it up. Take your time and do it well. No cheating.

Vitamins: Daily vitamins are essential. You are not eating enough, so you need to make up for it. Protein is ESSENTIAL. It takes more energy/calories to digest than it costs in calories. You will burn calories eating protein! Shakes are easy and tasty! Make a matcha latte out of a vanilla one!

Fast Food: You can have it, but you have to be smart about it. A kids meal at Chipotle is an easy 300 calorie meal and it is full of protein. It is enough for the whole day. Grilled nuggets at Chick-fil-A are so easy and tasty! About 200 calories for 8. You can eat out, but you must make a plan for it and stick to it.

Drinks: There is no reason to drink your calories if you can avoid it. Why drink a Coke when you can have a Diet Coke? Why have Gatorade when you can have Gatorade zero? What’s the point? Protein drinks are fine, as they are extremely filling and good for you. Full sugar soda is a no! They make diet and low sugar everything, just drink that!

Keeping Track: Keep track of your weight. After sleeping and going to the bathroom is the best time to do it. You will be at your base weight. Record it every day, even if you have gained. It is vital to see your progress or get you back on track. There are tons of great apps for it. You can track your weight in pounds, kilograms, BMI, etc. Always record your food. It’s not hard. You can even plan your meals ahead of time in your app. It’s so simple!

I am currently in a week long plateau. It feels as though I haven’t lost weight in years and I am beginning to feel discouraged. I know it will happen, I’m just worried. I will stay consistent and I will achieve my dreams. I am not underweight, but I will be.

🪩🕷️🚬🖤I will be SKINNY🖤🚬🕷️🪩

I noticed theres not a huge fitness/gym community on Tumblr, but here's my beginner guide to getting fit at home in case anyone's interested. Best to start now so you'll look good for summer. Some exercises require dumbbells, but you can get creative with that. Hold a heavy book while squatting or curl a can of seltzer for biceps.

1) Workout

Upper body (repeat 2x a week):

10 pushups x2 - do them against a wall or leaning on a table/chair to make it easier.

12 standing dumbbell row x3

12 bicep curls x3

20 shoulder taps x3 (10 each side)

Lower body (repeat 2x a week):

Hold weight to increase the difficulty of these exercises.

20 lunges x 3 (10 each side)

15 squats x 3

15 calf raises x 3

15 glute bridges x 3

Core (repeat 1-2x a week):

Grab a mat or a rug and rest 20 sec between each exercise

15 crunches

10 leg raises

12 v-ups

20 russian twists (10 each side)

Repeat x3

Rest days:

Stay active. Walk to a coffee shop, go on a hike, maybe shoot a basketball around with your friend. Burning calories doesn't have to be suffering on a long run.

2) Nutrition

Even if you decide you don't want to work out, if you figure out your diet, you will still look like a completely different person in a few months.

First, go online to calculate your daily maintenance calories. If you want to lose weight, subtract about 500 calories from that to find how much you should eat per day. To gain weight, add 500 calories. If you are happy with your weight, eat your daily maintenance calories every day, but work on the quality of your food. I recommend the MyFitnessPro app (its free) to help you track your meals and make sure you're getting all the nutrients you need every day.

To build muscle, take your weight in lbs, multiply by 0.5-0.7, and thats the amount of protein (in grams) you should be eating per day.

Good sources of protein include: chicken, Greek yogurt, protein shakes, eggs, tofu, fish, pistachios, milk, cheese, turkey, and much much more.

Along with your protein, make sure you also have about an equal amount of carbs, and twice as many fruits and vegetables.

3) Additional health tips

Stretch daily, especially after a workout. Your joints will thank you.

Drink lots of water. 0.5 - 1 ounce per pound of bodyweight should keep you healthy.

Sleep 7-8 hours per night (depending on age). I was going to list all of the benefits of this, then realized there were way too many. Please sleep.

Walk 10,000 steps per day. Walking is one of the best methods of weight loss. It burns fat, not muscle, and it's so easy. Seriously go for walks, they're fun.

Sorry that was a lot, but you can seriously turn your life around with just a bit of effort every day. Try it for a month, I promise you will look and feel amazing. Lmk if anyone wants more tips, especially regarding gym workouts. I got a ton to share.

Week 1: Fatty's Slimming Down

(Photo taken of my body, first thing in the morning as soon as I roll out of bed, on an empty stomach)

I've been restricting my calorie intake to drop weight by eating only vegetables and lean meats (chicken and fish). I avoid carbs (eg breads, pasta), salt, sauces, sugars and dairy and eat as clean as I can. My main meals are salads with no dressing and a few slices of chicken meat or lean fish. My beverages are only water, green tea and home-made clean bone broth. Since I am not able to really exercise due to Vertigo, I can only walk a little around the home and unfortunately, I stay stationary often. So I can't burn calories like the others who exercise hard. To compensate for the lack of exercise, I try to restrict my calorie intake as best as I can.

(My groceries of what I eat. The Feta cheese I sprinkle only a few crumbs on some salads for flavor - about a tiny teaspoon worth. Otherwise, I stick to 95% - 100% dairy-free in my meals. Dairy is horrid for calories so I try to avoid it now. Next time, I will switch to plant-based cheese.)

My calorie restrictions may not look low, but compared to how I used to eat, it's a huge step for me. My old self used to eat 3000 - 4000 calories a day. I used to have 1 or 2 bubbleteas for breakfast, then mac n cheese pasta or burger for lunch, tons of potato chips throughout the day, a whole large pizza for dinner, then lots of ice cream and confectionary sweets. I wouldn't even be surprised if I hit the 5000+ calorie mark per day on some days of this glutton eating. Then I'd nap right after gorging on each big meal, which piled on more weight. So to go from 3000+ calories per day to 800 per day is a huge achievement for me. And I'll continue to work hard to lower the calories to smaller numbers. Here is my calorie intake so far for Week 1: Jan 22: 579 calories consumed Jan 21: 815 calories consumed Jan 20: 874 calories consumed Jan 19: 1423 calories consumed This was a fail day. My friends were having a hot pot dinner gathering, which I attended and ate more than I wanted to. This has taught me a lesson to avoid any meal meetups with friends. I'll meet friends BEFORE or AFTER their meals from now on, and use the excuse that I have dinner to eat at home, so they don't inquire about my strict diet or lecture me about my weight loss goals.

Jan 18: 817 calories consumed

Jan 17: 742 calories consumed

I use the app Cronometer to watch my calories meticulously. It has opened my eyes to my eating habits and helps me watch my intake.

I noticed I have dropped some 'flab' so I'm really happy. I'm still obese with my fat rolls, but I see that I do look thinner now. I'm guessing this might be my water weight that has dropped. I will keep this up while researching more on Tumblr on others' strategies.

Too bad I have vertigo. Otherwise I'd be exercising so hard everyday to burn the calories way faster and lose the weight quicker. I developed vertigo mysteriously a few years ago, about the same time I started eating super badly and got fat. Maybe the obesity caused the vertigo disease to develop, who knows. If you want to see photos of my obesity and fat rolls, just scroll 2 posts down. I can't wait to stop looking like the Pillsbury Dough Boy.

Long Time No See...

Happy new year ! New year's is my favorite holiday if I'm honest. Christmas and Thanksgiving tend to be overblown and very materialistic in my family and so I've never been particularly fond of them. But New Years is all about goal-setting and looking ahead to the future, and making plans, while also appreciating the good things from the year prior.

In 2024, I did a lot (although at times it didn't feel like it). I went abroad for 3 weeks to the UK and Ireland. I went to Italy with my husband for his best friend's wedding. I turned 30 and started my astrophysics/ocean tattoo sleeve. I was interviewed for an article in my local news about the Rubin Observatory and what I hope to use its data for. I applied for 11 post-doc positions and fellowships; I've already had an interview that went really well for one in Copenhagen, I have a good shot of getting an offer from Edinburgh, I have been shortlisted for MIT in Boston, and I have a strong application for a fellowship at UW in Seattle. I think that there is a good shot I will at least have some options available to me.(:

Some of my Resolutions are fitness-based, but a lot of them are for general well-being. I really want to try to knit a sweater this year. I want to wrap up my professional website (which I started last winter break and haven't gotten back to since, lol). I want to make a list of things I should do and see on the Island before we leave Victoria in the Fall. I'd like to get back to getting up early in the morning to have an hour or two to myself, and get back into journaling at night.

Besides these, I have some general fitness/diet-type goals for January. For one, I wasn't drinking much at all while applying for jobs, but after Thanksgiving I stopped being mindful about it, and I definitely drank more than I should have during Christmas break. So I am doing dry January. It's good enough timing too, because I do have weight-loss related goals and need to remind myself how good it feels to see the scale decrease. I haven't used a scale in a long time because it wasn't really important to my goals, but before we move in the Fall I wan't to feel healthier and better in my clothes. The second part of this January goal is that I have decided to kick-start the weight loss with a month of keto dieting, which I have done before and had good results with. The hardest part about keto is not eating fruit, but I am also trying to be cost-effective and eat veggies that are in-season now anyways, so it's not the worst to put it on the back burner for a bit. The last part of this January goal is 30 days of yoga, which is a good activity that I can do while still being very low-carb. You do not want to push your body when in keto.

Once I get through 4 weeks of yoga, no drinking, and a keto diet, I'll transition slowly to higher carbs and try to add back in weightlifting (possibly running 1x a week so I can maintain my cardio, but I will take it easy at first to adjust). The point of this combined method is to hopefully lose ~12 lbs in a relatively short time to motivate myself (this happened last time and I was about the same weight), and then I can focus on doing basically a cutting diet to lean down and maintain muscle. Especially after a month of keto, I think it will be possible to keep my meals high in protein and lower in carbs, which I usually struggle with because I do drink alcohol weekly, and often to excess. But I think this period of isolation with job apps has really helped me reframe where I want to put my energy these days.

It's the 4th now which means I've been doing keto for 4 days, and I've had decent success so far. A big benefit of keto for me is that I am not usually craving anything and I don't really eat unless I'm hungry. Also there weirdly seems to be a part of low-carb that enhances my focus ? I am not sure what that is. (Food sleepies due to carbs I understand, but I don't understand additional focus...)

Anyways, I will post some meals if they look delicious enough in the coming weeks. My SW for 2024 is 190 lbs and I am currently at 187 (water weight). We will see how this changes by next week.

[raideo]

Bruh ...... let me tell you, I actually started paying attention to my nutrition intake and I was not eating as healthy as I thought I was like goddamn...

I mean the things I was eating WERE healthy but like, the pacing/frequency of food intake, ratio of macronutrients and micronutrients were completely and utterly fucked six ways from Sunday, I had no idea my diet was so screwed up and thats why I felt like I was DYING ALL THE TIME!!!!!! BECAUSE I KINDA FUCKIN WAS, LMAO!!!!!

I feel like a whole different person this is the best thing ive ever done for myself omg

If you feel like shit all the time please consider getting a nutrition tracking app and DONT!!! DO IT FOR WEIGHT LOSS!!! THAT SHOULD NOT BE YOUR GOAL UNLESS YOU NEED TO FOR HEALTH REASONS, Just do it with the goal of trying to get the macro/micronutrients you should be getting and oh my god it will make such a difference if your diet is unbalanced I promise you.

I was not getting nearly enough protein or fiber before omfg. No wonder i could exercise as much as i wanted and i never seemed to get stronger and i always fucking hurt all the time! Jesus christ!!! 🤦‍♂️ i feel so stupid but also I cannot be the only one who struggles with this PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD BALANCE YALLS DIETS

Also extra note about the fiber- if you get very little you should not go straight to getting the full recommended amount you will have a BAD TIME. Im glad I knew about this already and did not have to learn it the hard way. You gotta give your body days or sometimes weeks to adjust to increasing it, because gut bacteria is responsible for helping you digest that stuff and if you don't have enough they cannot handle a large amount- you gotta give them time to multiply 👍 (i cant believe my fish tank cycling knowledge applies to my own human body this shit is wild)

Anyway nutritional education in this country is fucked so bad, overhauling my diet has only made me more angry that shit is so expensive and school/workplace culture is so hostile to you snacking often like you should be. How the fuck is a person supposed to get the nutrients they're supposed to to fuel their body and brains when they're only allowed to eat once like every 6-10 hours?! Im so glad my job doesn't have an issue with me constantly snacking on stuff because it's extremely physical and I have come to realize it's quite literally imperative to my body's optimal function that I have that.

🪓 capitalism die

[fkinavocado]

I just wanted some genuine suggestions for losing weight without burning out my body and harming it. Since you are one of the most mature Tumblrina I know, I thought of asking you. You don't have to answer if you aren't comfortable.

thank you for your trust hun❤️ and for the tentative approach to a sensitive subject.

i learned a lot when i was on my own weight loss journey and i can genuinely give some sound advice on how to approach it in a healthy way.

depending on your starting point, i would suggest skipping working out entirely in the beginning. you can walk, 10k steps a day i still swear by, and that's cardio almost everyone can do. again, i don't know your starting point so if we're talking severely overweight start off slow, don't force your joints. just regular walking, no sprinting, running etc.

working out, even cardio stuff believe it or not is more for toning towards the end of weight loss journey and afterwards. everyone thinks hitting the gym is gonna help them lose weight when in fact it can do you a lot more harm than good especially at the beginning. you burn very little calories with an extreme amount of effort, making you even more hungry and prone to overeat, you're gonna end up bulking up your muscle mass and not really getting rid of the fat, plus, again, it can be extremely taxing on your joints and overall health if you push yourself too much too fast.

nutrition is the key with weight loss and i'm tired of ppl trying to sell working out to those who are desperate to make a change.

however it's not as easy as "just don't eat as much", unfortunately. and if you're like me and have other things hindering your process, in my case, insulin resistence, then it's really not simple at all.

you gotta try and see what works best for you but there are some things that benefit everyone regardless of their specific needs.

first of all, you gotta be in a caloric deficit. there are a lot of online calculators where you enter your current weight, age, gender, height and your weight goal, and it calculates what your daily caloric intake should be for you to get there as realistically as possible while still mentaining a healthy dose of nutrients.

which leads me to number two on the list, macros (those calculators will tell you what your daily macros should be too). you wanna look up meals that are high protein low cal. you'll be amazed how some easy changes to your diet can make such a big difference! download myfitnesspal (an app) where you can track everything you eat, buy a food scale so you can weigh everything and this way you can ensure you reach your macros for the day (protein, fats, fibers and carbs) while staying within your daily caloric deficit. which btw, should never go bellow 1100-1200 no matter how fast you're trying to lose weight! there's no way you can reach your macros if you do that and you'll be malnourished, you'll lose muscle mass not just fat and you'll also end up with lose skin if you starve yourself.

which leads me to number three, don't starve yourself!!! you won't be able to sustain it for a long period of time and you'll end up binge eating every several days, which will erase all the "progress" anyway. trust me.

allow yourself a lil cheat meal every once in a while so you don't grow frustrated(careful to remain within your daily calorie intake, carbs and fats will probably skyrocket but at least try and get smth high protein)

drink lots and lots of water at least 3-4 liters daily (not all at once!!! this is very dangerous and i just wanted to clarify!) it makes a world of a difference!

try and get your 10k steps in if you can but even without that if you're in a defiict you WILL lose weight

you can also try intermittent fasting. i wouldn't recommend one meal a day. try at least two. the way it works is you try and not eat at all for as long as possible and then only eat in the ramaining timeframe. most ppl do 16-8 or 18-6. meaning you fast 16/18 hours and only eat in the remaining consecutive 8/6 hours. this eliminates snacking. which is important in terms of glicemic spikes. your body needs downtime between meals, if you keep feeding it and snacking however little every few hrs you keep getting spikes in your blood sugar and you won't lose weight. sometimes even if you're in a significant deficit. skipping breakfast is easiest, but you could skip dinner if it makes more sense for you. but make sure you hit your macros in the remaining timeframe. if you can't manage that, intermittent fasting is not for you

this is, in very rough lines, what i consider essential. keep at it for a month and you'll see results and will be motivated to continue! i hope it helps ❤️

How to Lose Weight Permanently

Introduction

Permanent weight loss is more than a goal; it’s a transformative journey. While many are drawn to quick fixes that promise rapid results, these often lead to a cycle of losing and regaining weight, leaving individuals feeling defeated and frustrated. Understanding why these quick fixes don’t work is the first step toward achieving sustainable, long-term success.

The Science Behind Weight Loss

Metabolism serves as your body’s engine, controlling how efficiently you burn calories. A slow metabolism can make weight loss more challenging, but it’s not an insurmountable obstacle. The role of calories in this equation is simple: consume fewer than you burn, and you’ll lose weight. However, your body has a “set point,” a weight range that it naturally gravitates towards. To change this set point, it requires consistent, long-term effort.

Mindset and Motivation

Developing a long-term mindset is crucial. Many individuals approach weight loss with the goal of shedding pounds quickly, only to be disheartened when the results aren’t sustainable. Understanding the difference between emotional and physical hunger is essential in avoiding the pitfalls of overeating. Building resilience, especially during challenging times, and maintaining consistency are key to permanent weight loss.

Nutrition for Sustainable Weight Loss

A balanced diet forms the foundation of any successful weight loss plan. Understanding macronutrients—proteins, fats, and carbohydrates—is crucial in creating a diet that supports weight loss. Protein helps with satiety, fats are essential for hormone production, and carbohydrates provide energy. Incorporating fiber and whole foods into your diet not only aids in digestion but also helps in controlling hunger. Meal timing and frequency can also play a significant role, with some finding success in intermittent fasting while others do better with regular, balanced meals.

Exercise: The Right Kind for You

Exercise is a vital component of weight loss, but it’s important to find the right balance. Strength training helps build muscle, which in turn increases your metabolism, while cardio burns calories directly. High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is particularly effective as it combines the benefits of both, offering a time-efficient way to exercise. Beyond structured workouts, incorporating more movement into your daily life—like walking, taking the stairs, or standing more—can also contribute to your overall calorie burn.

Healthy Habits and Lifestyle Changes

Small, incremental changes can have a significant impact over time. Start by focusing on one habit, such as drinking more water, and gradually build from there. Hydration is often overlooked but plays a crucial role in weight management, as it can help control hunger and support metabolism. Sleep is another vital factor; poor sleep can lead to hormonal imbalances that drive weight gain. Managing stress is equally important, as it can trigger emotional eating, which often derails weight loss efforts.

Behavioral Strategies

Recognizing and breaking bad habits is a cornerstone of permanent weight loss. Self-monitoring, whether through journaling or using an app, helps you stay aware of your behaviors and make adjustments as needed. Setting realistic goals ensures that you’re not setting yourself up for failure. Achieving small, manageable milestones can build momentum and confidence. Partnering with someone—whether a friend, family member, or coach—can provide the accountability needed to stay on track.

The Role of Support Systems

Support systems are invaluable on the weight loss journey. Involving family and friends can provide encouragement and motivation. Professional help, such as dietitians, trainers, and therapists, can offer tailored advice and support. Online communities and social support groups can also be a source of inspiration and guidance, especially during challenging times.

Overcoming Plateaus

Plateaus are a common and frustrating part of the weight loss journey. Understanding why they happen—whether due to metabolic adaptation or simply needing a change in routine—can help you develop strategies to break through them. Patience and persistence are essential during these times, as plateaus are often temporary and can be overcome with the right approach.

The Importance of Flexibility and Adaptability

Life is full of changes, and your weight loss plan should be adaptable to these shifts. Periodic reassessment of your goals and strategies ensures that you’re still on the right track. Staying motivated over the long term requires flexibility in your approach and a willingness to adjust as needed.

Debunking Weight Loss Myths

There are many myths surrounding weight loss, from fad diets that promise rapid results to ‘magic’ supplements that claim to melt away fat. These approaches are often ineffective and can be harmful. Understanding the truth about genetics and their role in weight management can help you set realistic expectations and focus on what you can control.

Long-Term Maintenance Strategies

Once you’ve achieved your weight loss goals, transitioning to maintenance is crucial. This involves continuing the healthy habits you’ve developed while being mindful of any potential pitfalls. Monitoring your progress, without becoming obsessed, ensures that you stay on track. Continued self-care is essential in maintaining your new weight and overall health.

Real-Life Success Stories

Learning from the experiences of others can provide valuable insights and inspiration. Real-life success stories highlight the different paths to permanent weight loss and the commonalities in what works. These stories, along with motivational quotes, can serve as a reminder that while the journey is challenging, the results are worth the effort.

Conclusion

Permanent weight loss is a journey that requires commitment, patience, and a willingness to adapt. By focusing on sustainable strategies and maintaining a long-term mindset, you can achieve and maintain your weight loss goals. Remember, the journey is just as important as the destination, and every step forward is progress.

Unlocking the Secrets to Effective Weight Loss: Your Journey to a Healthier You

Are you ready to embark on a transformative journey toward a healthier, happier you? Weight loss isn't just about shedding pounds; it's about reclaiming your vitality, boosting your confidence, and improving your overall well-being. Let's dive into the strategies that can help you achieve lasting weight loss and a healthier lifestyle.

1. Set Realistic Goals

Setting achievable and realistic goals is the first step toward successful weight loss. Instead of aiming for rapid, drastic changes, focus on gradual, sustainable progress. This approach not only prevents burnout but also increases the likelihood of long-term success. Remember, consistency is key.

2. Adopt a Balanced Diet

A balanced diet is the cornerstone of any effective weight loss plan. Prioritize whole foods, such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains, while minimizing processed foods and sugary snacks. Portion control is also crucial – listen to your body’s hunger and fullness cues to avoid overeating.

3. Stay Hydrated

Drinking enough water is essential for weight loss and overall health. Water helps control your appetite, boosts metabolism, and aids digestion. Aim to drink at least 8 glasses of water a day, and consider swapping sugary drinks for water or herbal teas.

4. Regular Physical Activity

Incorporating regular physical activity into your routine is vital for burning calories and building muscle. Find an exercise you enjoy, whether it’s brisk walking, cycling, dancing, or strength training. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous activity per week, combined with muscle-strengthening exercises on two or more days a week.

5. Prioritize Sleep

Quality sleep plays a significant role in weight management. Lack of sleep can disrupt hormones that regulate hunger, leading to increased appetite and weight gain. Aim for 7-9 hours of sleep per night to support your weight loss efforts and overall health.

6. Manage Stress

Chronic stress can lead to emotional eating and weight gain. Incorporate stress management techniques into your daily routine, such as mindfulness, meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises. Taking time for yourself can reduce stress and support your weight loss journey.

7. Monitor Your Progress

Tracking your progress can help you stay motivated and make necessary adjustments to your plan. Keep a food diary, use a fitness app, or take regular measurements to see how far you’ve come. Celebrate your successes, no matter how small, to maintain your momentum.

8. Seek Support

Don’t be afraid to seek support from friends, family, or a weight loss group. Having a support system can provide encouragement, accountability, and motivation. Sharing your journey with others can make the process more enjoyable and less daunting.

9. Stay Positive and Patient

Weight loss is a journey, not a race. There will be ups and downs, but staying positive and patient is crucial. Focus on the positive changes you’re making and the benefits you’re experiencing, rather than just the number on the scale.

10. Consult a Professional

If you’re struggling to lose weight or have specific health concerns, consider consulting a healthcare professional or a registered dietitian. They can provide personalized advice, create a tailored plan, and offer guidance to help you reach your goals safely and effectively.

Your Weight Loss Journey Awaits

Remember, weight loss is about more than just appearance – it’s about improving your health, boosting your energy levels, and enhancing your quality of life. By implementing these strategies and staying committed, you can achieve lasting results and become the best version of yourself. Start today, and embrace the journey to a healthier, happier you!

What is the absolute fastest way to burn body fat?

The absolute fastest way to burn body fat involves a combination of factors:

Caloric Deficit: You need to consume fewer calories than your body expends. This can be achieved by reducing your calorie intake and/or increasing your physical activity to burn more calories.

High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT): HIIT workouts involve short bursts of intense exercise followed by brief rest periods. They are highly effective for burning calories both during and after the workout due to the afterburn effect.

Strength Training: Building lean muscle mass through strength training can increase your metabolic rate, helping you burn more calories throughout the day, even when at rest.

Balanced Diet: Focus on whole, nutrient-dense foods like fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Avoid processed foods, sugary snacks, and excessive amounts of refined carbohydrates.

Adequate Sleep: Poor sleep can disrupt hormone levels and metabolism, making it harder to lose weight. Aim for 7–9 hours of quality sleep per night.

Stay Hydrated: Drinking plenty of water can help control appetite, boost metabolism, and aid in fat loss.

Manage Stress: Chronic stress can lead to weight gain and make it difficult to lose fat. Practice stress-reducing techniques such as meditation, deep breathing, or yoga.

Intermittent Fasting: This eating pattern involves cycling between periods of eating and fasting. It can help reduce calorie intake and improve metabolic health.

Increase Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis (NEAT): NEAT refers to the calories burned during activities other than exercise, such as walking, gardening, or household chores. Increasing NEAT can contribute to overall calorie expenditure.

Limit Liquid Calories: Be mindful of high-calorie beverages like sugary sodas, juices, and alcoholic drinks. Opt for water, herbal tea, or black coffee instead.

Protein-Rich Diet: Consuming adequate protein can help preserve lean muscle mass while promoting fat loss. Include protein-rich foods like lean meats, fish, eggs, dairy, legumes, and tofu in your meals.

Track Your Progress: Keep a food diary or use a calorie-tracking app to monitor your food intake and physical activity. This can help you stay accountable and make adjustments as needed.

Be Consistent: Consistency is key when it comes to fat loss. Stick to your diet and exercise plan even on days when you don’t feel motivated. Small, sustainable changes over time yield the best results.

Consider Supplements: While not a substitute for a healthy diet and exercise, certain supplements like caffeine, green tea extract, or conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) may have modest effects on fat loss when combined with a proper diet and exercise regimen.

Stay Patient and Persistent: Fat loss can be challenging, and progress may not always be linear. Celebrate your successes along the way and focus on the long-term benefits of a healthier lifestyle.

Always consult with a healthcare professional before making significant changes to your diet, exercise routine, or supplementation regimen, especially if you have any underlying health conditions.

Keep in mind that while it’s tempting to seek rapid results, sustainable fat loss takes time and consistency. It’s essential to prioritize overall health and well-being rather than solely focusing on quick fixes. Consulting with a healthcare professional or certified fitness trainer can also provide personalized guidance tailored to your specific needs and goals.
