"Try the carnivore diet, if lost 2.5 stone so far this year. " I do this when I'm cutting for holidays for a month. Plus I fast once a week for 24hrs. Great little rest for the body. | |||

"I just wanted to see if anybody else has had the same issues as me. I have been doing the weight loss thing for the past few months for health reasons but I find that it's actually killing my body confidence as I go. It took me an awful long time to accept and love my plus size body and now I find that as I'm losing the weight I really dislike the changes. I haven't put up new pics in a long time because of this. Any tips to help change my mindset?" Easier said than done but remember that your body deserves love and respect no matter its size. Losing weight is going to come with its own challenges regarding loose skin etc but it’s still the same body that you can learn to love as much as you loved your bigger body. Don’t be hard on yourself, change is always hard. I would say, since you used to like taking pics, buy some new lingerie and have a photoshoot for yourself, even if you don’t post the pics. | |||

Any tips to help change my mindset?" Well the first thing I will say to you is well done on taking the step to train and to stay at it. That's a massive achievement in itself. Most people quit after a few weeks and fall back into the bad habits. You've shown that you have the willpower to keep training, so maybe this just needs a little tweak to help with your confidence. Maybe speak to someone professionally is the best thing to do. | |||

Any tips to help change my mindset?" It sounds like you’re at the start of your journey our skin elasticity doesn’t shrink as quick as weight loss resulting in some changes you may be referring to, especially if you are loosing the weight quickly 1-2lbs per week. The loose skin won’t fully go nor will the stretch marks. The skin will get smaller in time and stretch marks will fade. Weight training can help with the loose skin if this is what may be a concern to you! Keep up your weight loss journey and congratulations on losing the weight as a lady who fluctuates between being bigger and smaller I know it’s tough to loose weight and takes a lot of will power to change habits…… So kudos to you! Don’t worry about the changes you are seeing your overall health is more important. You will learn to love your new body overtime and the skin does decrease but will always be a bit of loose skin left…… this can be turned into muscle! Also you can be overweight and solid muscle and have a good resting heart rate (through cardio exercises) , BMI isn’t the only indicator of heart health x As someone mentioned above talk to others who are in a similar stage of their journey or who have gone through it before, they can help you with your concerns xxxxx | |||

Any tips to help change my mindset?" Hi _adylace, hope your keeping well. Fair play to you finding the confidence to even speak out about it. Doing that alone shows how much you really want this journey to be successful for ya and trust in the work you've already put in already and trust the process. If I could recommend adding a bit of moderate workouts to your meal plans, 3-4 days of good moderate sweat pouring exercises are absolutely good for the and brain needs those exercises gives you great dopamine and makes you want to get up and kick that challenge butt the next day. If there's anything I could do for you in this situation pls feel free to Private mail me and there's plenty of help from like-minded people who I believe could help aswel. Always self-love is key. Do it for you, not for people's impressions, well-done and fair play to you for finding the courage to want to take that life changing step from thee beginning 😊 | |||

"Hi _adylace, Tony here and I'm in the same position as your self. Trying to lose weight and as a couple on here get message from couples saying they only want to meet wife ( Jane..Naughty Milf) and it really affects the confidence " Don't mind them tony, from a gent to another gent, Carb and sugar is everymans weakness at some stage. If you cut down a bit on your carb and sugar intake, get out there with the misus now and again for a good walk or if you can find the type drop into any fitness center and get some laps done swimming or even any cardio machines. Something moderate you can get into an habit of doing and I promise you in 2-3months time, you'll be a changed man physique-wise. | |||

Any tips to help change my mindset?" I have no experience of your situation but very interested in the topic. Fair play to you for taking a step to what I understand to be you wanting to improve your physical health. You say that you are happy with your plus size body. If you are addressing weight through dietary changes - restricting foods or food groups, eating different foods, eating less etc - then I do wonder if your body confidence is taking a knock because your body may actually be releasing less dopamine, which is a feel good neurotransmitter released during pleasurable experiences like eating, sex etc. Less neurotransmitter = less happiness, less confidence. If this is the case, there are many healthy ways to increase the release of dopamine, like exercise, meditation, getting back to nature etc. Maybe a medical professional, a nutritionist and/or mental health professional might have more insight and be able to give pointers and help. I wish you all the best on your journey. Mrs | |||

"Thanks very much for all of the comments. Some very good points have been made and I definitely think the Dopamine could be an issue for me. I will also look up that book that was suggested. Thanks again." well done on the weight loss. Weight bearing exercise will help the body changes more than just cardio. And to keep the weight loss can I suggest slimbiome medical on Amazon. Scientifically proven to suppress appetite. | |||
