"One: ditch the scales Two: hunger can often be a sign of thirst/ dehydration, so drink more water " I drink like 3L per day. Not including cups and cups of green tea I hate the scales but I also am that neurotic bitch that needs to keep the numbers in check | |||

"So I’ve been noticing that I’ve recently gained weight, and yes it’s going in the right places like the ass and thighs but I’m really finding it stressful to see the numbers getting bigger when I weigh myself on the scale For whatever reason, I’m always hungry lately. I think my progesterone is really making me feel that way. I feel like could literally eat the fridge, the couch and my neighbours too I think I do plenty of excercises, I walk fast everyday and try and do 12-13k steps, and plenty of glutes excercises almost everyday . And Pole once a week. Anyway… The scale says I haven’t shed a thing Is it time to go on a strict diet? Also how do you deal with hunger suppression??? " My advice is "stay off the scales"! Only half joking as weight is irrelevant if you're happy with your body composition. Maybe all those squats and pole dancing mean you've developed more muscle tissue? But on the hunger - I get it! I feel like I can always eat! I chew a lot of gum to stop me snacking... | |||

Thighs +5cm And hips +4cm which is appreciated as waist (about 27” waist and hips are about 38”) Is same as used to be but yeah The eating part is what scares me cos… it’s like this feeling that I just am hungry all the times and could eat and eat and EAT! I need someone to lock my fridge and cupboard | |||

"I never weigh myself- ever! I think it’s a slippery slope to get into. I usually judge my weight on my clothes if they start to feel near I cut back on snacking or increase healthier foods. As a dancer I know I carry a lot of muscle particularly in my lower half so the scale numbers could appear higher due to muscle mass but your head is still telling you ‘I’m heavier’ it’s not always the case - muscle is good You look bloody awesome also! Xx" Awww thanks lovely x u are right maybe I’m worrying on numbers when maybe I’m just putting muscles on my lower part of my body. Number wise I’m not really too happy but maybe I should just not worry too much about it … It’s hard cos I picked up really bad habits from my teen years so it’s very an odd relationship I have with the scale… | |||

"Kylie, if you're walking, working on glutes and doing pole then there is a likelihood that you are developing muscle mass to replace fat stores that you are burning off. You can lose fat and gain muscle and therefore your weight will be the same/increase. Fully approve of the 'measurement aporoach' taking regular readings of your waist:hip ratio and any other body parts you want to pay particular attention to. Ditch the scales if you can but if not, stick to a 'once a week' weigh in and weigh yourself on the same surface, with the same scales, at the same time for consistency. With regards to hunger, look for foods that have a high glycaemic index score, these are foods that release energy over a longer period, battling those hunger episodes. Alternatively look for good 'snacks' like nuts and oats rather than sugary fruit bars for example. Good luck x Charlie " Thanks for this answer! That’s very insightful and I’m glad I don’t appear like a total crazy bitch to say that I keep my body measurements every month If I didn’t, I’d have not necessarily known the gain on hips and thighs from 6-7 months ago Im gonna research into food. I don’t think I’d need to do a diet for now with the excercise I do daily but Ill try cut down on crappy snacks… Im a sucker for crisps | |||

"Finally something I shine in Hunger management is about 2 things. Habits and food choice Food choice is easy. All that matters about weight gain is calories. All calories are the same in that regard. But you want to look at calories vs volume. A pizza is high calorie low volume. A salad is low calorie high volume. Pick foods low in calories and high in volume to help keep you full. That plus a big glass of water will help. Habits is harder. Try to find times when you snack. Times where you feel cravings. Find the patterns and find ways to fix them. That’s what intermittent fasting does. It helps fix habits Don’t get too bummed out on a scale weight. No one looks at you and guessed your weight. They look at your body your way it is. If your happy looking in the mirror, don’t change. If you had the perfect body, but stood on the scale and it said 12 stone instead of 11, would you change it? Obviously not " Makes total sense. It’s not a huge weight increase. A +5kg from like 6 months ago Definitely need to probably pick my food better, and be okay with good fats vs bad fats hmmm As said, I’m happy with where the fat Is depositing and that I’m toning with the right excercises. Could I do better? Absolutely | |||

"5kg in 6 months is a fair weight gain, but are you including your new enhancements? They must weigh a little. Plus if your liking the way you look, plus the hormones who knows. The mirror doesn’t lie. Scales can be confusing. " I’ve not included them but they are about 700g I do like the weigh I look overall . I guess the boobs and the big ass are making me look kind of slim curvy Before the boob job I felt like I looked more slight and thin because of the tiny boobs | |||

Everyone has a 'sucker' food, mine is Toblerone! Diet has many meanings but if you mean engaging in a calorie defecit lifestyle then be careful because you'll end up not consuming enough calories to continue exercising at the level you're at. There are plenty of apps out there than can help you track calorie intake and you can always buy a smart watch to roughly track calorie output through exercise. Perhaps do that first and then you could already explore if you're in a calorie defecit already. If not, then you'll know which food sources cause you the greatest intakes of calories. Sometimes it's as much about portion size as it is about food. Fruit is healthy for you but if you ate 10 apples and 10 bananas a day for a month, your sugar intake would be through the roof and you'd probably gain weight. Little victories sometimes are all you need. And don't ever neglect the psychological benefits of exercise. That endorphin rush can't be matched sometimes | |||

"As said above, low calorie high volume foods to fill you up. Courgette spaghetti, riced cauliflower and broccoli, loads of options, bit of salt and pepper and some seasoning and it's nice. I'm always hungry, sat at 3500 cals daily now maintaining weight and I'm ravenous even with stuff mentioned above, just get used to it and ignore it." Courgette spaghetti tho… I never got on with them | |||

Low calorie, high volume Also new research is confirming that very high protein diets are great. Aim for 2g protein per 1kg you weight at a minimum | |||

"I make weight management powder (Hion pure living). It's pretty good, tastes like shit though." If it works for you, mate, all good, but what is it designed to do? I personally would be wary of any powders or potions offering to help "weight management".

It's scientifically designed to support optimum health and effective weight management, by working with each individual's own energy, digestive and metabolic processes. It is designed to be taken whilst living a healthy lifestyle, along with exercise. Took it from the packet, but I'm guessing there's more information on the website. *I do not work for Hion pure living*. | |||
