Going from less carbs to more fat (good fat) has reduced my hunger pangs big time. One meal replacement a day has been key to shedding weight. (I now make my own without any soy or whey or preservatives.) I am not a big fan of meals, so I have one meal a day, plus one meal replacement, and I allow myself a bit of whatever here and there throughout the day, whilst counting my calories at the same time. Using fat secret now is so much easier than 10 years ago when I first joined. Before I had to research myself: the calories, the food, and input everything in the system myself. This used to take hours. Now all the hard work has been done by the users and all the food with the calories is already in the system. All I need to do is control my mouth. Easy when I think of peer pressure and how much I want it to stop for good. M.Next I want to try fasting for 24 hours minimum and see if I can manage that whist being hunger pang free. I reduced carbs because of

Good luck. Hope your methods work for you. What do you take for protein instead of soy or whey?

I am not too worried about protein at the moment. Just whatever I can get from plants. I want to go as vegetarian as possible.

You’re very disciplined 👏 it’s inspiring, well done 😊

Thanks for replying Janapp. I think plant-based proteins are fine if you get enough variety. Also, eating proteins helps you to feel full and doesn't easily turn into stored fat the way that eating carbs and fats can.

Nutricali, not disciplined just pissed off by the many never-ending, annoying comments from my family and relatives. Some of whom are fat themselves. I have zero discipline, but I can enter my food intake on fat secret. I actually used another app to calculate my optimum calorie intake for weight loss. Fat secret wanted me on 1,800 calories. Thanks, but no thanks. 1,800 calories is maintenance for someone my height, not weight loss.

Chief, I use a coffee grinder not a blender. I grind cloves and much more. I make my own home-made powder, then I mix it with almond milk and that is my 1 meal replacement.

I’m sorry your family aren’t more supportive. Those sort of negative comments don’t help. Just always put yourself first, whatever works and it sounds like you’ve found it. I couldn’t have omad so that’s what sounds like discipline to me! FS is pretty bad with guessing calorie needs and mine were way out too but it’s still a nice supportive space to share things 💚
