Nope. I count every calorie. I'm shooting for 2300 but struggle to hit that. I usually end up at 2600 or more. I cook 80% of my own food. I bake my own bread. I make my own snacks. I know exactly why I'm fat. I can't stop being hungry. I feel full around 800-900 calories, no matter what I'm eating. (pizza is an exception, because I feel full around 1200 calories, so I avoid it.)
Imagine walking, chest deep, against a slow moving river, every second of the day. You can push against it and it works, but it's hard. One slip up and you're floating backwards. You know how to make progress, but it's takes a shit load of effort and one mistake and you just. Fucking. Can't. Today.
Add that into everything else wrong with my life. I only have energy for so many things. I have to triage. Kids, wife, bills, personal happiness, other responsibilities. Can't do them all.
Trust me, I hate myself with every bite, but it's the only way to shut up that hungry voice.
You could try eating more fiber (beans, fruit, etc) it’ll help naturally increase GLP-1 (same as ozempic) but without the cost and side-effects. You also most likely have a Leptin issue (fiber helps with this as well). I urge you to both look at Leptin and GLP-1 with relation to fiber and or therapies that will help you resolve your hunger issue. There’s adequate scientific literature to support eating more fiber helping these two, but you might need pharmacological therapy if changing your diet would be too disruptive. Lastly, you’re doing great and individuals who are overweight but exercise will live longer than skinny people who don’t. Hope that helps.
Thanks.
I do eat fruit. Freaking love it. At least 1 apple a day, they are my fav, and often more. I try to eat veggies as much as possible and skip meat when possible. Fiber hasn't been a huge focus for me, but it's worth a shot. I've got a refried beans recipe I freaking love. I wish my kids liked it. My veggie chili is also great, but, you know, kids.
Stop. Eating. Carbs.
I lost 60 lbs when I finally managed to convince myself that carbs don't give a satiety response.
Yeah, there's a hard-wired positive feel-good response from eating until you're full. Unfortunately, when food is plentiful, that means you're going to be overeating all the time. Conversely, if you're eating at a deficit, that means you're not going to have that feeling of fullness any more, you're going to feel like you've still got room. You're not truly hungry, but you're not full either. There's a difference between being actually hungry and just not being full, and a lot of people lose that distinction.
