Hi Victoria, your profile is private so I can't tell if you are still actively logging your food. Logging and periodic weight measurement are the 1st habits required to building a healthy lifestyle. Not everyone on the planet needs to log their food every meal, but those of us with consumption issues do. It must become a habit that you never forget to do. I tell my grandson that his dyslexia means that he must work harder at reading than everyone else for the rest of his life. No excuses. When he is 40 yrs old, no one should know or care that he has dyslexia, he has made it a habit to work harder at reading correctly. I like 16:8 fasting. Breakfast at 9am, lunch and dinner by 5pm. It is easy to sleep hungry. It is easy to delay breakfast until 9. Once you start logging, then you can start seeing where your fat/calories are coming from. Then you can start swapping one bad food for a better one. Once I realized mayonnaise had a high caloric content, it became easy for me to stop using it, or switch to mustard (which has zero calories and antioxidants). I also realized that I was drinking too many calories. So, I stop drinking soda and started drinking juice (a more healthy choice). But, juice still has too many calories. So, I added 20% water to my juice and hardly noticed the difference in taste, but cut the calories by 20%. Then I upped it to 50% water... then 70% water. Eventually, I switched to straight water. I don't crave sweet drinks anymore. I don't crave beer or alcohol anymore. When I don't drink so many calories, that meant that I could eat a lot more food which did a better job of filling my always hungry stomach. It is just one step at a time. Will power and deprivation doesn't work... never did, never will. What works is healthy HABITS. Habits are hard to break. But, you can break bad habits and replace them with good habits. It takes time. It takes effort. But, it works.
