My heart feels like its pounding in my chest and I know I am unreasonable to feel this way, but anytime I get any kind of hint that my partner is hanging out with other people (namely, his friends) I get so fucking jealous and angry. I try my best to not let it show, but we have had arguments about this in the past because of miscommunication from us both and my inability to manage my negative emotions.

He was originally super clingy at the beginning of our relationship whereas I was aloof, but as I warmed up to him overtime we slowly started spending majority of our free time together. We had shared each other's locations at one point, and I notice he'd by out at a boba tea shop or fast food joint, and he told me he was with family. He much later admitted he hung out with friends behind my back and it hurt me so fucking much, especially because I told him how I feel like he's my closest friend and I'm sad that I don't have friends / a friend group like him. I felt betrayed because HE used to want MY time and affection so much at the beginning. I am envious he has friends which I admitted it to him, not in a way that I blame him but in a way that I'm just sad and wish I had close friends too.

I recently found out, from his fucking friend's post on instagram, that they hung out together again because he was constantly being posted on his friends page. I felt so hurt, so angry, and just betrayed. I did lash out on him, regrettably. I was just mainly upset that he does it without telling me because I am constantly monitoring for his message or when we can next hang out and it makes me sick - I feel like a stupid fucking useless puppy waiting for its owner. I communicated how much it upsets me, he apologized, but I still resent him for this. Its stupid that this triggers me so much but all it does is remind me how I feel like I am no one's first choice.

22F, 5'7 & 245lbs here. Genuinely tweaking. So for breakfast today I had 2 hardboiled eggs with 1.5 tsp of mayo, 1 whole raw carrot, and like a 4 inch piece of cucumber plus coffee with half a creamer and 1.5 tbsp of sugar -- about 324 cals and 14g of protein according to MFP. I know its not crazy high but this should stave hunger off for like 3-4 hours no?

Ate it at 9:45am. It's currently 12:00pm and I'm hungry again. Like getting lightheaded and kinda shaky almost - so thats how I know I gotta eat in the next 30min-1 hour or else I'm cooked and will eat fistfuls of crackers or whatever else is quick and easy to not feel hungry. And no I don't have diabetes or some sort of metabolic or thyroid issues - my blood tests have been normal (slightly low iron bc of my period). Im trying to avoid grain like bread & crackers bc i cannot just eat the serving size, I go 2x over which fills up my caloric need for the day which I do not need.

Hooow do I do it? How long are yall going before you feel peckish/hungry again? I struggle with this at night too. I try to stop eating past 7-8pm to try to fast but if I'm really hungry I just eat at 9-10pm sometimes which screws me over. I know I gotta volume eat and prioritize fiber & protein, so I was about to make myself some oatmeal as a snack, but I'm huuuungry. I think this oatmeall will only stave me off for like an hour or two again.

Edit: I normally eat 500-700 calorie breakfasts, I am trying to eat a smaller portion today.

I'm a freshly graduated 22 yr old with a BAS in Psych. I feel so fucking lost, anxious and just nauseous thinking about my present and future. Multiple nights I wake up with a gnawing anxiety. There is no school for me to return to after September.

Job hunting is a nightmare and I just feel pathetic. I have practically no useful or concrete experiences, aside from a part-time receiptionist and a retail job, especially when comparing myself to peers from hs. People I know were research assistants, getting internships, etc. but I let every opportunity pass me because I always felt incapable of meeting standards. I just constantly underestimate myself and because of that I don't put myself out there bc Im scared to fail - even though people who are arguably less capable of me jump for these opportunities and get them. Funnily enough I put off getting my license for 5 years bc I was so scared of failing, it was until my partner did his first test that I decided to book mine too (I passed my first try, he didnt haha).

The job market is miserable, I don't even know what I want to do yet, I feel lost, the economy sucks and I have no idea how I'll be able to support myself and live on my own, I want to have a committed life-long relationship with my partner but circumstances outside our control make it difficult, I don't have enough savings as I should, I have no concrete or technical skills that make me valuable, I want to support my loved ones but can barely support myself, geopolitics are a fucking mess, my city is ass... I just want to be happy.

Hi everyone. I'm a 22F who is 5'7 and weighs roughly 245lbs. I have lost 30lbs in the past before with a deficit and I'm aiming to be in a deficit again, roughly 1600 cals daily. I managed to mostly cut out junk food just by not buying it anymore (chips, chocolates, gummies) because I used to mindlessly eat at home.

However, after tracking my cals I notice that my biggest problem is with grain. Bread, crackers, bagels, toast, tortillas. These make up a bulk of my diet, and I am struggling to cut them out. I add protein and veggies along with it (eg. Tuna salad on toast) but I feel unsatisfied following portion sizes. For eg, a portion serving is 2 slices of rye bread - I can easily eat 3 or 4 in one sitting. This can easily run me up 500 cals off bread alone.

I like Polish rye bread the most. Not a big fan of whole wheat (whole family isn't and it eventually molds bc no one eats it fast enough). I don't mind low-carb or high-protein breads but my family doesn't eat it and they're usually expensive. If I get shaky after a workout I grab a fistful of crackers to try to stabilize my blood sugar (not diabetic but I get weak sometimes post weightlifting).

What can I do to stave off this hunger? How can I limit my consumption of grain, or what can I try as a substitute? Thanks.

Ok, hi. I am a 22F who is 5'7 and currently weighs about 245lbs. I have lost over 30lbs in the past via calorie deficit by tracking cals on LoseIt and stationary biking. I am trying to lose weight again after gaining it back in uni.

I didnt even use a food scale the first time I lost weight, I just measured proportions and used the nutritional labels to guide me. I ate at about 1700 cals daily and I used to high-ball my cals to be safe since I was usually eyeballing it. Because if like a package of toast says its 180 for 2 pieces of toast, then like, what do I need a scale for if its already portioned out?

This time around I am being more cognizant of grams and bought a food scale. Yet somehow it feels harder and I haven't been losing weight despite going to the gym, walking more, and tracking my cals?

My limit this time is around 1600 cals. I still have a habit of overestimating my cals. For example the past 4 days I ate roughly 1400 cals with tracking/portioning each meal, and then did 8k steps on top of that. Im like paranoid that I'm overeating still since I haven't lost weight. Anyone else is like that?? And no I do not have history of EDs or anything like that - I am just confused as I haven't been losing weight! Maybe I just need to stick with it longer.

TLDR: I track my cals and eat under my daily limit, aim for >7k steps a day and work out in the gym, but Im not losing weight and Im paranoid I'm somehow overeating my calorie limit. Anyone else?
