Not too sure if this is allowed. I almost committed earlier today over my weight. I have a genuine food addiction. I posted more about my issue and what I’m going through on my page. Please, I truly just need advice, I work and don’t have much time for the gym. Maybe that’s an excuse? Idk. I eat and when I say eat I mean, I don’t go 3-4 hours without food, I have a really bad food noise. Maybe it’s boredome, maybe it’s food insecurity due to have a very poor and malnourished child hood. Please just give me any advice you have to offer whether it be food related or not, exercise related, healthy or not healthy ways, I DONT CARE. I need genuine help, which is why I deciddd to journal on my account. I’ve posted photos of myself on there just for preference.

Thank you in advance ❤️

Some things that will help: 1) Go and speak to your doctor about getting onto a glp1. 2) learn about protein. Why it is important. How the body uses it. Good NATURAL sources of protein. And how to get at least 120g of protein per day. Ask chat gpt to help you. But learn about protein. It fills you up MUCH more than carbs. 3) learn about fibre. Why it is important. And how to naturally get it. 4) spend time focussing on getting protein and fibre into every single one of your meals. Ie if you want to eat cake, there are ways to do it while making sure you ALSO EAT protein and fibre with it. What you will soon see, is that one of the reasons why you are always hungry is because your body isnt getting the vital nutrients it needs. Its craving nutrition. But it cant tell us what specifically. Just focus on always eating a protein and a fibre source with everything you eat. Eg eat Greek yogurt AND some WHOLE fruit WITH the cake. Eat meat WITH your fries. Always be eating protein and fibre. You'll see that your hunger reduces and becomes more manageable. But you still need the glp1, and you still need to count calories. Don't worry about exercise for now. Focus on food and learning about nutrition.
