    actual food advice:

  3. #3

    - drink a LOT of water. especially before meals. i drink about half a liter of warm water (gross but yeah) before every meal and try to have a glass of cold water every hour.

  4. #4

    - practice NEVER finding ur whole meal. always leave a few bites. idk what’s the science behind this, but it makes me want to eat less knowing i can’t eat it all.

  5. #5

    - eat more fiber. protein also fills u up more, yes, but yall need to get on the fibermaxxing journey cuz fiber is most of the time very low in calories and high in volume so u can eat a lot for less.

    - eat less processed stuff. i know💔. but eating whole foods DOES actually make difference and makes you less hungry, have less cravings, and is a lot of times less in calories.

  7. #7

    - slow down bro. obviously, but slowing down to eat your food does, in-fact, work. it takes ur brain about 20 minutes to realize ur full.

    how to trick ur brain into thinking you’re eating more than you actually are:

  9. #9

    - use smaller plates & bowls.

  10. #10

    - when eating, wait a little (i personally wait 10-20 seconds) between bites.

  11. #11

    - cut your food into smaller pieces so there are more individual bites.

  12. #12

    side note: hot food fills you up more than cold.

  13. #13

    mental side of things:

  14. #14

    - thinspo. obvious again, (like most stuff in this thread), but find a person that’s ur height and look at thinspo of them. works wonders if u find a kpop idols cuz they have fancams and it’s very easy to find thinspo of them, but it doesn’t need to be a kpop idol lmao.

    - grossspo. a lot of it doesn’t work for me, but i found some actually gross ass grossspo with like hair and food in the sink and bs like that. is DISGUSTINGGG. works wonders.

    - imagine all the cute outfits you’ll get to wear at ur gw. make a pinterest board and scroll through them while eating, or even just when u feel like eating but maybe ur fasting or u hit ur cals for the day or what-the-fuck-ever.
