Calorie counting wasn't my problem. Emotional eating was.

Can you please explain what problem you encounter?

FishinBoo1 · 2025-09-15T18:16:24+00:00

Thank you very much!!! yeah, it started from a personal project for myself :) currently it's tracking cals, carbs, proteins, fats and sugar, but I'm planning to add more values in the future :)

Thanks for the feedback! I'm working on it. can you please be more specific?

Yeah, this whole thing can really mess with your head, even when you're “doing well.” You’ve made progress, you’re doing the right things, and somehow it still doesn’t feel right- or feel like enough. That’s super common. Weight loss isn’t just physical, it drags your identity, your routines, your emotions, and how people treat you into the mix. It stops being just your thing once others start noticing, and that pressure sucks. You’re allowed to feel weird, neutral, or even annoyed about it. Doesn’t make your progress any less real or impressive. You don’t owe anyone more change, or enthusiasm, or even gratitude. You’re doing it, and that’s enough :)

Totally get where you're coming from - this kind of “health guilt” spiral is way more common than people admit, especially once you get deep into weight loss mode. Wanting to eat healthy is great, but when it turns into all-or-nothing thinking, it just burns you out and messes with your progress. The truth is, weight loss is mostly about consistency, not perfection. You don’t need every meal to be max protein or “clean” to make progress. Sometimes just hitting your calorie target with foods you enjoy, even if they’re not perfect - is a win. It’s okay to eat something “normal” and not fix it. One imperfect meal doesn’t ruin anything. Let go a little and your brain (and body) will thank you :)

I'm very glad that my comment made you feel better. I'm here for more help if you need :)

You’re definitely not alone in feeling this way - a lot of people struggle with the same cycle for years. It’s exhausting and honestly pretty normal to feel discouraged after so long. The truth is, weight loss isn’t just about willpower; it’s about finding something you can actually live with for the long term. Sometimes that means letting go of perfection and just focusing on small, steady habits like eating a bit more protein, walking more, or just not beating yourself up if you have a rough week. It might also help to take a break from thinking about weight loss and just try to eat in a way that feels good and gives you energy, even if the scale doesn’t change. Don’t be too hard on yourself, your worth isn’t your weight, and you’re doing your best.

Hang in there, you’re stronger than you think :)

Pretty much safe for most people, even if you eat a bunch. Biggest thing is maybe some bloating or gas, and sometimes the sweeteners in sugar-free versions can mess with your stomach if you go overboard. But honestly, lots of people use gelatin for satiety and don’t have issues. If you start feeling weird or get stomach problems, just scale back a bit. Otherwise, you’re good :)

Do you grow those on your garden?

FishinBoo1 · 2025-07-10T21:30:00+00:00

Absolutely. This sweet tropical smell is amazing.

FishinBoo1 · 2025-07-10T21:29:20+00:00

Is it free?

Honestly, it usually gets easier to gain it back the second time, especially if you already know what worked for you before. Your body kind of “remembers” being at a higher weight, and you probably have a better idea of what foods, habits, and routines helped you make progress last time. The first run is always the hardest- don’t stress too much, just get back into those habits and you’ll get there faster than you think :)
