i did the cabbage diet, the original version from Poland, and i lost 7 pounds in 6 days. it's an unhealthy diet since you don't eat carbs, but you should only do it for 1 week at a time. And most people say its impossible to keep the weight off, but I prove them wrong.
advice
I have a problem. I am not anorexic or bulimic, I have never gone a day without eating, and I usually eat 1000-3000 calories a day. I am 5'7" and 131 pounds. My problem is that I think I am very chubby even if everyone says I am not. I obsess over calories and weigh myself a few times a day. I get so depressed if I feel I eat too much and hate the feeling of my stomach being full. I eat very very healthy and exercise regularly. My mother and my sister both have eating disorders. I would never starve myself, but I am so sick of thinking about calories all day and pinching my fat spots and making sure I can still feel my hips. I guess my question is how can I stop obsessing and be normal and eat without hating myself? thanks
I know exactly how you feel. I'm 5'7 and 133 pounds, and I use to have the same mind frame as you do. The first thing I started to do was to love myself. I know it sounds so corny, but instead of looking in the mirror and pointing out all the things that were wrong with my body, I would try to find only positive things. By focusing more on the good parts of my appearance, it steered me away from all the negative things, and I really started to see that I wasn't fat, I was healthy, and theres no need for me to count calories. People are like confident people who like themselves, so you just need to learn to love yourself.
