What are your eating habits to stay healthy? Do you do portion control, meal planning, food tracking, have only 1-2 meals a day, don’t eat past 5 pm?

Shop the edges of the grocery store, cool as much as I can. Make sure half my plate is veggies, stick to high protein meals.

Everything in moderation. Eating intuitively when I’m hungry, stopping when I’m full. Personally I don’t eat red meat but if people do that’s definitely a moderation food, most Americans are eating way too much. Variety is a huge benefit to any diet - mix up the fruits, grains and veggies that you are favoring from a month to month basis. Drink more water, less alcohol and less sodas. Probiotic foods or add a supplement to your routine.
I think portion control and meal planning are great ideas if you enjoy that and it works for you. Food tracking, 1-2 meals a day, and not eating past 5 those are very restrictive methods and promote a negative relationship with food. I don’t think they’re sustainable methods long term.

Thank you for your insight. I have a friend who doesn’t eat past 5. I do food tracking. Lately i have been having 1-2 meals a day and thinking my stomach size shrank down or just not thinking about food as much? It’s a good thing.

Intermittent fasting. Mostly fruits and veggies. Shopping the perimeter of the grocery store even at Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s.

For both of you, a whole food diet would help — no processed foods/sugars, refined grains, alcohol, dairy, nightshades.

I had IVF process to get pregnant. During pre- embryo transfer we were told that girl embryo is being transferred. Currently I am 18 week pregnant.

Anyone had similar experience?

I recently got diagnosed with ADHD. I'm 31 and found this only because b school and post mba consulting job was/is much more challenging than anything I did before.

I just realised it now. My doctor has suggested treating depression (I was also unaware of this) with Wellbutrin first (contd)

I’m only about 5 weeks, but my sleep schedule has gone off the rail the last three nights. I’m sleepy/drowsy, settled in bed around the same time every night, and yet I cannot fall or stay asleep.

This was fine the first few nights since it was the weekend, but it can’t keep up. Anyone else experience this and have any recommendations?
