I eat to live, but I do like to make choices I like.

Live to eat.

I’ve never been able to eat the same things over and over.

...unless it is French fries or potato chips and dip, which I think I could eat every day.

Food has always been fun for me.

@KingstonsMom So what caused the weight loss ?


 

@BeccaLou 

 

They have no idea, I got a clean bill of health, but no matter what I do I haven't been able to put any of it back on.

 

If I drop below 105 lbs., I try to start hitting high calorie foods, I'm not really into sweets, and too much sugar has it's own set of problems.

 

I keep hoping though, I can't make myself give away my size 8 clothes, even though I'm a size 2 now, LOL!


After serious illness I was losing weight unexplicably too.  My doctor recommended that I drink protein gainer shakes each day in order to stop the continued weight loss.   I started drinking them and got my weight under control and it gradually began to rise.  I still drink them today but drink a lesser amount than I did back when it was a real issue.   I drink them today to facilitate muscle growth after working out so it is not only to stop weight loss at this point.  I think I could stop drinking them actually if I wanted to now and not have that problem... but anyhow the gainer drink I like and was most effective for me is

OPTIMUM NUTRITION Pro Gainer Weight Gainer Protein Powder

 

It is kind of expensive though.  I usually buy it on Amazon.

I favor live to eat, but with many food allergies and intolerance, I accept the small pyramid of foods that work for me.

Re: Do You Live To Eat Or Eat To Live?

I eat to live and enjoy it.. When I was younger, I loved to eat junk food on most weekends, and Pepsi at least 3-4 days per week.The downside was becoming overweight and remaining that way over a decade. Adopting a pescatarian diet, regular exercise, and sweets every blue moon helped me to not only lose weight, but keep it off. Eating  to live is one of the best decisions I ever made.
