CW205 SW205 GW150, // Female // 5ft3
I feel like I am just being stupid with this and just feeling tired of so much conflicting information. I am currently at my highest ever weight from a fun cocktail of antidepressants, comfort eating and whatnot. My mum told me about the NHS weight loss programme online after she saw it on the news, and feeling awful with hitting my highest ever weight, I thought why not give it a shot. I have tried all of the fad diets before, the under 1200 calories one and just none of them have ever worked for me. I always end up absolutely starving and giving up fast, or if I go over my calorie goal my stupid brain just convinces me I am a failure and should just give up.
The NHS programme suggests aiming for 1400 for women, but again it just doesn't seem enough for me. It doesn't seem to take into account different activity levels (for example saying to aim for 150 active minutes a week when in my case I am usually doing between 200 and 300 daily). It just feels like daily calories intake isn't a one size fits all. I don't know if I am just being greedy, but I hit my calorie goal with just a healthy breakfast and lunch then can never have dinner. Despite my size, I am a very active person. Currently walking between generally 15.000 and 25.000 steps a day, I'm a dog groomer so spend all day on my feet at work, go running several times a week and so on.
I am just tired of the conflicting information. The eat 1200. The eat 1400. The never eat less than your BMR. The never eat less than your TDEE. I don't know how I am supposed to find a realistic number I can stick to without constantly feeling hungry, that is enough to fuel a what I consider quite active lifestyle and still low enough to lose weight. I am tired of always being told something different about what I should and shouldn't be doing.
