      Yes binge eating & overeating is often linked to emotional deregulation. This makes it harder to lose weight or maintain it. The root of the issue has to be dealt with. For my friend it was childhood SA. The minute a man would show any s3xual interest in her when she was getting skinnier she would get triggered & start binge eating. She was never able to get her weight under control until a therapist made her connect the pattern. She is now doing great.

      We have to acknowledge that whole picture to be able to address it, it's a reality that you can get visual results on crash diets, however, you've lost more water weight than you accounted for, and you've put unnecessary stress on your body, especially your heart and liver, You haven't changed your eating habits in the long term and your body has just experienced a hunger episode so you're statistically doomed to gain all the weight back and more. None of the facts above is going to tramp over that crash diets can show results and this is the sole reason this method of weight loss has been around for the last 80 years.

    I rather lose the weight slowly because I know I have a better chance at keeping off long term. I'm not a professional, but I feel crash dieting sets people up for long term failure. Losing weight should be about changing your lifestyle long term, not to lose 1 stone in 2 weeks without really learning how to change for a healthy balanced life.
    So far I've lost a bit over 10 stones over the last couple years. I do not follow fad diets. I learned to eat smaller portions, I gave up none of the foods I enjoyed, I just enjoy them in moderation. And for me this method has worked well. (I'm working with my doctor to make sure I'm doing my weight loss in a healthy way.)

    As someone who is technically dieting, this show is the most dangerous one I’ve seen ever. Fad diets are not healthy no matter how you dress it up and the majority of people won’t keep that weight off because the eating habits have not changed for the better, just changed temporarily to something unsustainable. Lose weight slowly but changing how and what you eat to something you can sustain and live by is the best way to diet. You won’t fit into the pair of jeans a size or two smaller in a week but with sustainable lifestyle changes you can in a few months and stay that way.

    If you only eat a certain way to lose weight and then go back to how you were eating before, it won't stay off, obviously. You also have to address emotional issues and trauma or you'll just keep getting reeled back into dysfunctional eating. Otherwise, I don't see a problem with eating a certain way for a short period of time to lose weight. But you really have to be mindful when you eat and also make sure to honor your hunger. Being ravenous is only going to cause you to sabotage yourself.

      It's amazing how different all our bodies are. My boyfriend struggles to gain weight. One of his life's dreams was to join the army but no matter what he eats he is still under weight. He's tried supplements and diets from doctors, diets from the internet, eating 6 peanut butter sandwiches day along with regular meals and nothing worked. For me on the other hand, especially since being on my meds, if I try intuitive eating I eat too much and gain weight. I also crave sweets and junk food. The only thing I've found that works for me is a keto diet because it cuts out sugar and carbs which for me reduces cravings. I don't really consider it a crash diet though because it's long term. I make sure I eat mostly veg and some clean protein and some healthy fats.
      I really think that all our bodies are different though and what works for some people might not work for others. If I do intuitive eating then I hover between 80 and 85 kgs which for my height is over weight. I'm on a bit of a health binge at the moment and hoping to get down to 60. At the moment I'm at 74.
      I'm incorporating intermittent fasting and a bit more light exercise like walking.

    Why not simply reduce your caloric intake by sheer 500kcal per day, start walking, hiking, swimming, light cycling, even 15-30 minutes of light excercise every day will result in a weight loss in a month. Why do people always go to extremes, do dangerous unsustainable diets that are impossible to sustain over longer periods instead of little by little eliminating bad habits like sodas, candies, fried foods... combine it with light excercise and higher intake of vegetables... You'll develop healthy eating habits over time, stop your craving, get in the better shape and be actually healthy and fit 🤷 it's extremely easy to lose weight and keep it off, people are just lazy, stupid and want express results just focused on the appearance instead of their health and well being....

      They don't, most ppl try doing that, and it doesn't work. If you will just cut calories you will be hungry, add exercise to that, you will be even more hungry. Your body will reduce your BMR so you will likely have to reduce calories even more, also body will release hormones that will make you want to move less. It can work for few kg for somebody that is healthy but doesn't work for most ppl. Think about it, why would you need to restrict calories? What controls how many calories you are eating? Your hormones do, if you will arbitrary limit calories you work against your body, and that isn't easy or smart or sustainable in the long term.

      You're not supposed to not consume any calories at all. The fasting that's recommended is intermittent fasting, which just means you don't eat after a certain time (usually 5pm), and then start again the next day at, like, 7am. Even a hardcore fast is not 0 calories, but you're right that it's very low-calorie and not good for you.

      I’m on 1500 calories a day and tbh, it’s rather easy as long as you make sure your meals are below 500 calories and you add tons of veg to make sure you feel full and satisfied. But also… no 8 year old should be on a diet. I was put on multiple diets growing up and none of them would stick because I wasn’t in the right frame of mind to do it. It’s only now at the age of 26, I’m finally capable of following through and sticking to it. All the foods and sugary drinks I’ve cut out aren’t even missed anymore. Lost over a stone in weight in less than two months and by the looks of it, it isn’t stopping anytime soon.

I don’t know, nor do the doctors, whether correlation = causation, in my case. I stopped the juicing immediately and began eating my regular food to control the Crohns Disease symptoms, while waiting for my medication. That was 12 years ago. I still don’t know if the juicing components in themselves caused it, i e too much acid; chemicals in the soil; or I was set up for it for other reasons. Now I just take my Rx meds 3x daily and try not to speculate too much, just feel grateful that the medication works.

    Eat normally for a week and track the calories
    Take off 250 - 500 calories a day off the total so if your eating 3000 a day eat 2500
    A deficit of 500 calories a day can lead to 3500 calories a week or 1LB of weight loss
    Do this with some resistance training to maintain muscle mass and you’ll achieve your goal slowly but safely

    I came to this after listening to RoyTaylor's diabetes diet. Basically, he says prediabetes or diabetes can be put into remission by quickly dropping 15-20kg. He advocates 600 calories of shakes and soups plus a small 100 calorie meal (a salad etc to break the monotomy of a liquid diet)...so 700 cals/day and no exercise for a max of 12 weeks or until blood sugar is normal. He doesn't seem to recognize that it's a crash diet (he's an endocrinologist) and therefore does not address these kinds of issues raised here. Watching this to see if it can be done safely and maintained.

    This is how you healthily lose weight. Caloric deficit and weight lifting.
    You can either measure how many calories you regularly eat in a week and drop 500 calories from that or do a macro calculator which is more of an estimate. Stick to those calories for at least 2 weeks and see how you do. A healthy goal is 1-2lbs a week. Start with minimal cardio but heavy weight lifting if possible (this is also good for your bones). After at least a couple weeks if you hadn’t lost weight, drop ahout 100-200 calories. Once you are losing weight keep those same calories and cardio until you stop losing weight for at least 2 weeks. If you stop losing, drop calories by 100 and/or increase cardio by 5-10 minutes. Continue. Do a max of 4-6 months in a deficit, and then do a reverse diet for at least 6 months. After that you can go back into another deficit

Don't over fill the plate , don't pile food up . Don't eat from a bowl you would increase portions . Walk 30 min a day at least and you are good .
