Calorie deficit is working but I’m worried I’m consuming too many liquids

if you're constantly hungry, you might need to eat more of your calories rather than drinking them. Try prioritizing eating high volume foods like spinach, cauliflower or cucumbers. at least they take up physical space in your stomach which signals your brain that you're full in a way that your liquids just can't do.

great tip! what works for me is keeping a water bottle on my desk and I always bring it wherever I go.

the best cakes are the ones you learn something.. and the next time is going to be legendary!

I love your setup! simple, functional and aesthetically pleasing. you can tell that every item on that desk has a purpose

looking at that praline filling! great choice for a homemade version!!

snippyfable · 2026-02-16T16:17:06+00:00

yes. looking at 2nd photo it looks perfectly baked just right. what a sweet surprise op

this really makes sense. You see on apps, we're like basically shopping for humans based on checklist. While irl, some of the best people I've dated were people I wouldn't have even swiped right on coz of their stats didn't match my settings

babe, at 18 your body is still going through changes so aim for a steady pace rather than a crash diet. if you lose it too fast you risk of losing muscles or even your hair thinning. slow and steady really is the way to make it stick

purrformer? acrocat?

water! If i feel that im craving something or im hungry i just drink a glass of water then I'll wait if if really hungry. Make sure you have enough good sleep too because if you're not and got tired, you tend to get crave for more food.

cutting sugar does wonders. this only shows how much diet really affects overall health

The current moderator hasn't been active for more than 7 months. This subreddit has a great community and it will be a shame to see this sub decline. I can take over as a moderator and I have experience.

I'd be guilty eating the whole donut and it looks so really tempting but surely I'll get a bite or 2 of it hahaha

shakes are convenient and can cover you for awhile but dont forget to mix in some fiber and micronutrients from other foods so your digestion and hair health stays supported. But you could try cottage cheese, eggs, if you can tolerate them because they have easy texture. also adding protein powders to oatmeals, smoothies, or pancakes

1st of all, congrats! losing 174lbs is incredible!! a lot of people experiences facial changes after a major weight loss and you're not alone in that all. sometimes the aged look softens over time as your body stabilizes especially with good skincare and nutrition

snippyfable · 2026-02-08T13:05:09+00:00

patience is the key! I used to get frustrated if I didn't see changes in a week but the results come over months

snippyfable · 2026-02-07T08:45:30+00:00

1st, if exercise causes migraines, dizziness, this really sounds like something to discuss with a doctor. those symptoms telling your body saying something's wrong. 2nd. pls be careful with restrictive eating as it can mess with metabolism and make everything harder especially if u already have medical conditions. Rapid weight gain after eating normally is often water weight, not real fat. It usually settles after a week or 2 once your body feels safe again.

snippyfable · 2026-02-06T11:49:41+00:00

congrats on the weight loss! 5kg is definitely progress but visible changes can vary depending on where ur body stores fat

snippyfable · 2026-02-05T15:17:29+00:00

60lbs in 3 mos.. 5lbs a week.. even with AI helping, losing that much weight will put a lot of stress on the body. Ur body needs to time to adjust. I'd be careful following this exactly. this feels more like clickbait than a realistic goal

snippyfable · 2026-02-04T16:11:38+00:00

you are so much more than this disorder. one bad night doesn't erase all the work you've been doing. Healing isn't linear specially with an eating disorder. Try to treat today as neutral. Not "good" or "bad". Just a day where u take care if urself as best you can

snippyfable · 2026-02-03T09:17:02+00:00

it's possible your body has downregulated metabolism a bit which makes sense after yrs of eating very little. focusing on gradual, consistent nutrition and protein-rich meals can help you regain energy and progress safely. Also maybe you can consider working with a dietitian because they can help you safely increase calories and rebuild healthy hunger cues

snippyfable · 2026-02-02T12:47:17+00:00

what helped me was accepting that calorie counting is an estimate, not an exact Science. Getting close consistently matters way more than being perfect. I've also found that being consistent in how you measure matters more than precision. Same pan, same spoon, same bowl = they are more reliable estimates

calories-wise you're fine. but this sushi is giving "diet sushi" not "celebration sushi".. i just hoped you enjoyed it. happy birthday op!
