Now i started the juicing and i'm trying to keep doing it, but my mouth always asking for food. I really want to lose weight everyday i wake up trying to do something new. I really want to lose some pounds by summer at least 30 pounds.


    I'm thinking i would have a partner to do it i would more into it and force myself to do it.
  • Welcome, Rahman07!

    One of your issues may be that you seem to not be sticking with any one plan to lose weight. Losing weight takes a lot of time, and trying something new everyday will likely hinder weight loss. I would recommend picking something you like, preferably something you can see yourself doing long term (because you will need to make permanent change to have permanent weight loss), and keep at it. There are a lot of helpful people and threads around here where you can scope out some options and ask for advice. There's also good information on old threads, too.

    It's hard enough to lose weight when you're on a plan that you like, let alone on one that you don't like at all. It'll be a challenge, but it shouldn't be torture every single day. It can actually be enjoyable at times.

    But you got this! You seem open to trying new things, and that's important.
  • Thanks, i think so too. Hopefully i can dedicate myself to one diet and thats it.
  • I definitely agree with chanticleer. Long term healthy solutions you can live with -- I had the same issue of my doctor wanting me to do two protein shakes a day and one meal and I was miserable and it failed. -- I finally found a plan that will work for me and I am sure you can as well. Just think after a few weeks *could I do this the rest of my life?* and it is not a diet but a change in your relationship with food.
  • You don't need to be hungry to lose weight. Eat foods that are healthy and filling, and you won't be hungry. Foods that are high in fiber, protein, or water tend to be more filling (per calorie). Some examples of filling foods are vegetables (e.g. broccoli, carrots, peas), fruits (e.g. grapefruit, pears, avocados), beans, eggs, chicken, whole grains (e.g. quinoa, barley, bulgur). Examples of foods that are not filling are sweets and white bread.
