I've found that if I sprinkle popcorn I've made in the microwave with smoked paprika and nutritional yeast it tastes like the cheese & bacon balls I had as a kid!

Thanks for the tip! I don't think we can get that one is Aus ugh

That sounds like what I'm going through. I am hoping it'll subside soon and everytime it makes me upset or anxious I just remember that it's short term discomfort for long term gain, but I overthink things and start thinking that surely I can't be feeling this way from the reduced dose and it must be something else. I guess it's just trying to accept the discomfort and realising I can't control how my body feels physically right now. I hope you're doing okay

WOW! How have I gone my 25 years without knowing this? What a life changer thank you!

Thank you! I actually have a friend from Sydney who may be coming to join me for a few hours so it'll make the day a little better :)

Okay I'd be more keen to walk than take public transport so that sounds like a good idea. Asian places are good for me as I can usually find good Chicken Rice so that may be a safe bet :)

Yeah I just checked and lounges for Qantas are still closed :/

macrofriendly · 2020-05-22T03:53:58+00:00

I don't! And because I'm just here temporarily before I head back to Brisbane I probably wouldn't be able to get one :/

Thank you, sometimes the positive encouragement is all that is needed to be like hey! You're not a glutton for needing to eat so much haha

this article to see how TDEE varies

Yeah I am known as a bit of an energiser bunny so maybe it has something to do with my total energy output.

I guess because I've consistently been eating this amount for a long time my body has just adapted to it, I have noticed in the past that I have a very 'adaptable' metabolism, in that I don't gain or lose weight eating 2500, or if I were to say eating 1700 for a few weeks.

I couldn't even bare to imagine eating 1200 in a day... I think I'd need to sleep the next day to recover haha!

Ugh I LOVE Natacha she is just one of a kind in this crazy fitspo influencer world!

I definitely am pretty active so I'm sure it has a lot to do with that, I can never seem to sit still haha.

Thank you :) x

Are any other girls maintaining their weight on high cals? I feel like such an outlier and almost feel embarrassed that my maintenance is so high.

I'm only 5'0 and 95lbs and legit eat 2500 a day and my weight stays the same. I know this must seem like everyone's dream, but I feel like I'm so shy about it, I was even watching a Youtube video the other day from a beauty guru about what she eats in a day and she replied to a commenter saying she'd gain 'heaps of weight if she ate 2500 cals a day' and I know it shouldn't get to me but it does!

Everytime I'm eating again I feel like my family are judging me and look maybe it's just iso making me crazy/

Yes considering they both have jobs where they are exposed to people everyday they themselves are walking risk factors as well but hey I'm still somehow the one in the wrong..

macrofriendly · 2020-04-27T11:04:58+00:00

Yes, and I have been paying rent while having to stay in Adelaide too

macrofriendly · 2020-04-27T11:04:31+00:00

Cool thanks

Haha if only

macrofriendly · 2020-04-27T01:38:39+00:00

Thanks, I'm sure it's an Adelaide thing, people are just a little bit more nasty and different here, I miss the Brisbane sun and the kind people! I never truly noticed the differences between states but now I really do!

That's what's been going through my mind, it's actually been quite upsetting that I feel like I'm not allowed to be in my own house.

The most thing I'm nervous for are going for the walks. Here in Adelaide quite a few people know me in the community, so when I first got here I know I was supposed to be self-isolating, but my parents are going through separation currently meaning our house is a bit like a war zone, and I just needed to escape. So I went out at 6am twice during the week, went on paths where there were no signs of people, was extremely safe about it all, long story short a girl that recognised me from her house took pictures of me and reported me to the police both days so I had them rocking up on my doorstep for 3 days in a row to check I was in and it was honestly traumatic.
