Hey guys, I, like lots of people, have gained weight over quarantine (50 lbs) and I'm extremely sick and tired and overall just over with being overweight. Same goes for my mom. We've tried keto, although I wasn't doing it religiously, we lost a couple pounds. My mom losing about 20. Me losing about 5-ish. But, I just didn't feel satisfied with the food we were eating. For some reason having, let's say 1 piece of bread as opposed to having 0 bread, was much harder than just not having any at all. So, I saw a video talking about a diet called the carnivore diet, and I thought to myself, wow, this sounds like the perfect diet for me. I love chicken, steak, fish, whatever. Perfect. Now I need to find out how can I break the bad habits I've built up over quarantine and create better habits. Such as, not eating any food late at night out of boredom. That same video spoke about ghrelin and how people today in the U.S eat like kings 1000 years ago and how he lowered and ignored ( don't know if that's the correct wording for that sorry ) the ghrelin levels so he could I guess balance it out and just eat whenever he wants to. Now, I know that this a very extreme example of fasting and that it doesn't work for everyone. But, I really want to at least attempt it, maybe not as extreme but, still want to try.
If anybody has any tips or advice on-
Breaking bad habits
Making new good habits
Diets
Exercise
Anything that would be useful in my journey to being down to a healthy weight again
Would be greatly appreciated :)
I am 16 years old, 6,1 265-ish pounds not 100 percent sure.
