Intermittent fasting and CICO: The keys to success
Reddit user alreadytryingmybest lost 60 pounds in just 9 months using a combination of intermittent fasting and CICO (calories in, calories out). She ate two large meals per day consisting of protein, veggies, fruit, and carbs, and avoided sweets and treats. When she did indulge in treats, she opted for anabolic or low-calorie options. Although intermittent fasting and CICO can be effective for some, it is important to always consult with a healthcare professional before starting any diet or exercise routine.

Despite her success, alreadytryingmybest struggled with binge and stress eating. One Reddit user suggested trying the free trial of Noom, which offers tips and tools for dealing with emotional eating triggers. Another user reminded alreadytryingmybest that every time she resists the urge to binge, she wins the battle against her disordered eating. Self-love and patience are key to overcoming binge and stress eating.
