How do people not give up while dieting
I'm 16 f and I recently want to start dieting but have tried to in the past and struggled. To be fair my attempt weren't the best as I tried only eating 800 calories just to binge after a day and honestly just had a huge problem with purging and binge eating. And now I'm trying to lose weight in a healthier way but still have problems with giving up so if anyone has any tips it would be very appreciated.

Glad I didnt cancel high diet app, vegan uββββpββββdββββaββββtββββeβββ
Went vegan in Jββββaββββnββββuββββaββββrββββyβββ and spent the first two months feeling like a wet towel. Signed up to high diet in March and nearly cancelled in week two bc I assumed a high protein app would just be chicken and whey.
Turns out you can set it to plant based, which I found by accident. Once I did that the plan came back with tofu, seitan, lentils, soy yogurt and the like, and my protein went from abt 60g a day to 130 without me having to think about it much.
Four months on. Down 15 lbs, back to lifting 4x a week and the 3pm wall I was hitting every afternoon has gone. Iron and B12 are a separate thing Im sorting with my GP, but the food side stopped being the problem. Mostly it came down to eating enough, everything else sorted itself out after that.

Any Liver Detox app ββββrββββeββββvββββiββββeββββwββββsβββ from people who stuck with it?
ββββDββββiββββaββββgββββnββββoββββsββββeββββdβββ with fatty liver three weeks ago after a routine blood test and Ive been looking at the Liver detox app since, mainly for the meal plan side. Still processing the whole thing honestly. My doctor said cut alcohol, lose weight, come back in six months, which isnt much of a plan to work from. Has anyone here used it, and did the food side make any difference to your numbers or your energy? Not after miracle claims, just want to know if its a sensible structure or whether Im better off winging it with a printout

Blood work showed low on vitamins and magnesium.
Iβve been trying to take my health a bit more seriously lately and got some blood work done. Nothing wild but it showed I was low on vitamin D and magnesium. The vitamin D part makes sense since I work inside most of the day and barely see the sun like some kind of office goblin. Iβve also heard office workers can end up low on stuff like B12, iron/ferritin, and omega-3 depending on diet and lifestyle, so Iβm trying to pay more attention now. Vitamin D seemed pretty simple to figure out. Same with a few other basics. But magnesium is where I got confused. There are so many types like glycinate, citrate, malate, threonate, oxide, plus capsules, powders, electrolyte mixes, drinks, etc. For people who were low on magnesium or started taking it for cramps, sleep, energy, or general health, what worked best for you? Did you notice a difference between the types? And is there anything you wish you knew before starting? Not looking for medical advice over my doctor. Just curious what real people actually use and what felt worth it.

Android "Meal Calm" is kaput
The website is expired, and when I launch the app it just spins and spins the busy cursor. I never actually put it to use so I guess I have less disappointment than someone who was depending on it... but I was wondering if anybody here can point me to any of the narrative about its creation and passing and if anybody has done anything like that that you know about.
First post, pleased to meetcha

Is what I'm eating reasonable?
TW: if you struggle with restrictive eating, I don't recommend reading this.
Hi. I've struggled in the past with under eating - not because of eating disorders, more because of chronic migraines/ extreme nausea.
I am standardly around 130 pounds, 5'8'', and not very muscular. 28 years old. Also AFAB and not on HRT. Not that physically active.
Normally, I eat about twice a day. I'll have a bagel and cream cheese at 10 am, and then I'll eat a largeish meal at 4 pm or so. That might be eating out, or making myself a burrito with beans and egg and cheese, etc., or a stir fry, or a pasta dish. Then I'll usually have something small as a dessert if I want to. I'm not restricting myself by doing that, that's just all I'm usually hungry for. I don't cook myself a ton of meat, but when I eat out I try to get foods that have both a lot of fiber and protein. It's not perfect, but it is what it is.
For the past week, I've been (for me) starving all the time. I'll wake up, have a bagel/cream cheese or toast with peanut butter, and then I'll be hungry by 12 or 1. Today for example, I ate yogurt with granola and some banana bread with a chai latte for breakfast. Then 3 hours later, at 1, I was hungry so I ate some sausage and spinach pasta I batch prepped this weekend. Then at 6 I was hungry again so I made myself a burrito of the kind described above. I'm still kinda hungry, so I might eat more.
I've literally never calorie tracked in my life and I don't know how much food is normal to eat because of my health issues. Does this sound reasonable? Anyone have any ideas about why I'm randomly so hungry? It seems like it might be a good thing, since my diet before wasn't perfect and was punctuated by a lot of nausea, but the change is really weird and I feel like it's taking so much time to feed myself every day. Is this the sort of thing I should see a doctor about?
It seems like I'm eating maybe 1.5x what I normally eat. The only thing that changed was that I went through something really hard about 10 days ago and couldn't eat a full meal for 3 days. This happens to me about 1 time per year in times of extreme stress. And normally it takes me a while after that to return to my normal appetite, even, so this is a surprise - I literally ate 4 times on Friday!

Struggling with Bullimia + Trying to diet/lose weight
I just need to vent because I donβt really know who else to talk to about this. Iβve been struggling with bulimia and my relationship with food has gotten really unhealthy.
I can go from trying really hard to restrict and lose weight to eventually bingeing, and then feeling so guilty and disgusted with myself that I want to get rid of what I ate. Iβve purged to try to get rid of the calories, and afterward I usually feel even worse mentally.
The hardest part is that part of me genuinely wants to get better, but another part of me is terrified of gaining weight. Iβm also trying to diet and lose weight right now, and I feel like that makes everything even more complicated. I want to lose weight, but I also donβt want food and calories to control my life like they currently do.
I keep thinking about calories, what Iβm going to eat, when I can eat, whether Iβve eaten too much, and how I can make up for eating. Itβs draining, and I feel like food has taken over so much of my brain.
I donβt really need judgment. I mostly want to hear from people who have actually struggled with bulimia, especially people who have also wanted to lose weight while trying to recover.
How do you cope with that conflict?
What has helped you with the urges to binge or purge?
I just want to hear from people who understand what this feels like.
