poanoi Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 i have found that the only way i can stick to a diet is to have no food at all in the fridge. i buy a blend 7/11 dish for breakfast and another blend 7/11 dish for snack until 5 pm, and 5pm i go and eat soup. that sums up my life, when i ever i buy food and stock up the fridge, i just keep eating every hour until the fridge is empty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robblok Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 What your talking about is (in a way) how i stick to my diet. I do have a fridge full of food but I just don't buy stuff like chocolate and other stuff. I make sure there is only healthy food there. This way its easier not to cheat. Luckily I don't have to go to extreme measures like you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontoearth Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Your idea is great and many people remove triggers that will hurt their diet plans. I know I am trying to figure out how to get rid of cheat days with some old friends. I just don't want the day anymore and hints didn't work. Confrontation didn't work. My friend is sick and insist it is his right to enjoy crapola food and his friends should join cause he is taking his medicine and getting well. He is completely delusional TypeII diabetic who has had a stroke. I really have problems with the whole thing. So I understand removing triggers that cause you to go off the diet. You have a unique plan and congrats to you for working it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully most are willing to compromise and go to places where I can order stuff that is reasonably healthy and they can enjoy what they want. I try not to eat out too much as its hard to really control what you eat then but totally avoiding social meetings is also not a good idea.

But as long as your losing weight I would not cut down on it yet. When you stall you could take less. Personally I dropped all fruit juices and sugary drinks. If you drop the cranberry juice and take an extra meal word 460-500 calories would that make you feel fuller ? But a diet that is not sustainable won't work, so if you live for cranberry juice it makes no sense to stop 100% otherwise you would give up on your diet too fast.

One of the worst foods for a diet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Google "foods that make you full" It sounds like you are addicted to carbs like I was. I used to never feel full unless i ate heaps and ate often.

altcar bob Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Starting weight loss is hard,for me, cheese, excellent filler, then over 4 to 5 days as appetite decrease so does cheese intake,just goes hand in hand,until cravings are gone. Lost over 8 kilos over 2to 3 week period. occasional take a bite when hunger strikes,but now mostly weight shedding mode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
