The change is calories is huge though and making dietary changes in the short term is far easier than gaining the mental fortitude to change snacking habits, especially without access to mental health care.
Which amounts to like <500 calories
I wasn't specifically referring using fruit, just the idea of changing the binging food vs stopping the binging. I realize that wasn't clear reading back on the reply chain though.
I never disputed any of what you're saying. I was strictly speaking from the point of view of substituting the foods with fruit. Obviously I recognize the differences but at the end of the day, fruit still won't provide a feeling of satiety. Protein-rich foods are better suited for that.
Protein rich food is also incredibly easy to overeat. The amount of calories in peanut butter is just cruel (I love peanut butter)
Everything is "easy" to over eat if you have a habit of doing so. But protein is undeniably more filling than carbs
Yea, but over eating spinach nets you an amazing 100 calories. Overeating peanut butter could be more than your entire daily recommended calories.
Sounds like you'd benefit from delving deep into food youtube. And buying more spices :P
Work off of that. Try different temperature+cook time recommendations. Chicken breast is easy when you get it down, but a bit tricky just because it's easy to slightly mess up. Start adding some spices, too. Start simple - a bit of salt and some pepper's a good jumping off point.
idk how yall are so naturally muscular. I have tiny baby wrists and a huge belly
I'm going to try not to be too judgemental so apologies if anything comes across as patronising! So:
Yeah, body types are just different. I'm a lot less meaty than most men. My dad and brother are also of the dark souls "bean pole" type. We all lift, we are all hard gainers of muscle mass, and we get bellies when we overeat. That's just how it is.
You have a gf. Why are you so obsessed with your body? Does she make you feel bad about how you look ?
