No rewards not really, no. I got some new clothes but am quickly realizing the futility in getting more than a few things at once. I've lost 3 pants sizes (and they're starting to get huge) and 2 shirt sizes, 2 underwear sizes. even my shoes fit better.

I still can't eat grains or fruit, I might be able to in a few months. That will be a good reward.

I was on track to stay under my calories today, but then I got too lazy to cook because the fish was still frozen, and even though I could easily cook it from frozen, I wouldn't be able to make the exact recipe that I wanted to make that called for fresh or thawed fish. So I ordered in and had a huge cheat meal.

Honestly, it wasn't even that good. Not delicious enough to justify the calories.

I'm in the 800-1000 cal range but of course it's easy for me. However I am starting to get hungry again which sucks a lot, plus I can eat a lot more than before. Not a lot compared to most people, of course... but 3-4oz of meat or whatever, which is way more than before. I was eating a lot of protein bars/chips/etc to get my protein in but I think I need to focus more on calories now. I can't eat a lot but I can eat often which I really need to not get in the habit of doing.

I drink coffee on weekends which I'm not supposed to do, and I get this low cal/lowfat/low sugar ice cream sometimes (320 cal a pint) which is definitely cheating (20g sugar in the whole thing, most is supposed to be 5 per meal) but I'm not eating any chips/candy/baked good/etc. But I need to not get in a snacking habit and I've been failing at that. Which will be a problem in the future if I don't figure this shit out now. But I'm talking to my therapist about it.

I'm sure you and your medical professionals know which eating habits work for you better than I would know, but I thought it might be worth pointing out that some people actually have more success snacking throughout the day. I guess eating smaller portions more often keeps them from ever going too hungry, or maybe it has something to do with keeping the blood sugar more consistent so that they get fewer cravings or something. I wonder if you feeling like eating often means you could try to make that habit work in your favour by eating small portions often, so that you feel less like you're fighting your body?

For me, fewer meals definitely helps me, because it's hard to get myself to stop eating once I start. If I'm eating more often, I will end up eating more overall.

Also, one snack I've come to be fond of is that low-cal strawberry Jell-O that's, like, five calories a container. And it tastes just like regular Jell-O, although maybe slightly less firm.

Yeah, there's some evidence that some sugar substitutes negatively impact your gut flora, I think.

I noticed that I'll feel a bit queasy if I have aspertame-products after taking my meds and having an otherwise empty stomach. Other than that, I've had no negative reactions to sugar substitutes.

The standard plan is 3 meals a day, no snacks. They really discourage multiple meals because I can only eat so much so more meals are more calories no matter what. However, I see them in another month or an I'm going to ask if I can do 4 instead of 3 since I'm getting hungry between meals. I've heard of them modifying it to 4 before.

That makes sense. Yeah, hopefully four meals will work.

I wonder if having tea or non-calorie things with some sodium in them will also help you feel satiated.

What the fuck, it's literally playing again. The second time in, like, an hour.

I wish I were joking.

I do drink Gatorade Zero which has a fair amount of sodium, and also diet green tea. But I need to really have a plan for my drinking, like a minimum, so I can be sure I'm at least doing everything I can with hydration and it's not something that can be solved by drinking more.

Can you tell us what specific sort of exercise you were doing while posting on Netphoria, because I really want to get the full effect in my head

Were you jogging on a treadmill with both hands on a tablet, were you checking your phone in between each Romanian deadlift, what

If these trends continue, reprise will become a being of zero mass by 2020.

Seriously though good work, reprise. It’s great you’re sharing this and I hope it’s making you more confident too.

thanks guys!

i would say it's making me more confident, but mostly i'm no longer thinking of how big my body is all the time. of course i'm really invested in losing weight and what/how much i'm eating, but man just having to navigate the world at 400+lbs is terrible, physically and mentally

I take ~1.5 minutes rests in between each set of five reps of a lift. The first post was made during a rest between bench press sets. The second during a rest between overhead press sets.
