Low intensity activity, like walking, is what tends to use fat as a fuel source, but this is in conjunction with a nutritional protocol that supports this. The old rule of “you can’t outrun a fork” comes into play.

I am genuinely curious if you have considered it.
I already have a counsellor ![]()
Old habits die hard I suppose.
I had no idea. If you don’t mind my asking, is it specifically for food? If not, if you are comfortable discussing, I feel that would be quite eye opening for those of us on the outside trying to assist.
I meant you guys,joking though.
I couldn’t afford counselling. I suppose a weight watchers group could be possible .

What help do you need?
Thanks not sure really. I will be staying home for a while which should help. I have had a few of my wife’s treats too though.
I am fed up steak too. I will reassess. Gained nearly a kilo. Probably water weight ,as gained quickly.
But not with vending machine chicken. What makes that so enticing? Perhaps its something you could make for yourself for a fraction of the price and calories
just bought 2.5kg of chicken breast so maybe yes.
I think you missed my question
I always hungry there and it convenient I suppose.
This is why you would prepare meals ahead. Then you have what you need. I think 95% of your compliance issue is just that. You’re not prepared to eat the right foods.
