Someone needs to lock me in a room for a year and pump in an endless supply of raw veggies and water because clearly I can not be trusted to diet on my own!

@freemo
Try getting creative with your meals and start meal-prepping

@freemo Try restricting your meal times to only specific hours during the day

@Mote I do, I restrict them to just the times when I'm awake, though I will make the occasional exception to this rule

@freemo Just raw veggies and water? No wonder you don't stick to your diet. :P

@freemo The availability of biscuits, bread, butter and jam in the kitchen cupboard destroy my 'do not eat after diner' plan. My mind i snot so good at regulating my food intake.

@freemo Not gonna lie, I'm jealous of my cat in a way, since I've got him on a fixed diet and he has no way to cheat on it.

I need to exert "willpower" when *I* go on diets, and he just needs to wonder why no one around him is giving him food when he's obviously starving 😅

@freemo I gained a lot of weight last year. My diet didn't really change I just didn't have good reasons to go walking places all the time like I used to. As far as I can tell exercise is much more important.

@swiley @freemo Treadmills and elliptical machines work really well in my experience.

Getting 30 minutes in without having to invest much thought into it kept me thin during these times.

@jmw150 @freemo Unfortunately I can't handle walking and not going anywhere, otherwise I would use the ones in the gym on the roof of the building I live in. My current solution is to just walk up all 23 flights of stairs every afternoon but it's not quite enough.
