1. Tell yourself, “If I’m really hungry, I’ll eat something in 20 minutes.” And grab a glass of water in the meantime (you could be thirsty, not hungry). By setting a short delay, you give yourself time to figure out whether it’s real hunger or just a food craving.
2. Is your brain focusing on eating just one very specific thing? That isn’t hunger, that is a craving. It’s normal to have cravings, but it’s best to ignore it. Ask yourself, “Would cold chicken/boiled broccoli satisfy me right now?” If yes, then it’s real hunger.
3. Is your stomach growling after you just ate a meal? Your stomach can growl while digesting! Try to eat slower. Drink more water between bites. Give yourself a bit of time to digest because a growl doesn’t always mean hunger.
Bonus: Are you dizzy/shaking? Eat some fruit! Your blood sugar could be low, and fruit is the good kind of sugar your body needs (and low cal).
Guys... I have an elevated chance of having pcos... I cant lose weight... I've tried losing weight... I can't.. no matter what I do... so the pinned rules will be changing.. if anyone has tips or lives with this please reach out..
Idk if anyone has tried this, but I love the taste of fire noodle buldaak ramen (500+ cal). so i replaced the noodles with shirataki konjac noodles (30 cal for entire value sized pack) and it’s a pretty decent replacement! Really satisfies my spicy cravings while being 50-100 cal for a HUGE bowl.
If you’ve never had shirataki noodles, it has a similar texture to Korean glass noodles? And it similarly has no taste, which is why I feel like it suits the buldaak fire noodle soup version (탕) since it really soaks up the spicy soup flavor. But it can be used to replace any kind of noodle dish, soup or stir fry.
To prepare the noodles, I followed this guide and then just prepared the ramen broth how I would for any instant ramen.
This meal isn’t packed with nutrients, so feel free to add anything to the soup base like tofu squares or even huge handfuls of yummy crunchy beansprouts. They’re low calorie, add nice texture, and really bulk up the amount of food. Stay safe everyone!
Hey guys! Let’s cut to the chase: a large serving of yummy, filling pasta with THREE INGREDIENTS!
You will need:
1 Package of 0Calorie Shiritaki Noodles
(78 grams or 5 tablespoons) Marinara (50 cal)
(8 grams) Nutritional Yeast (30 cal)
I topped mine with Kimchi for another 15 calories.
First thing’s first..
Strain and rinse your noodles from the package. You want to rinse them extremely well, until no odor can be detected. Pat dry.
On medium high heat in a small saucepan, you want to put your noodles in and cook until they are less translucent and more opaque.
In a small glass or bowl, stir together your marinara and nutritional yeast. You can also use salt, pepper, thyme/oregano/parsley, really any spices. Cajun seasoning would be good.
Add your sauce to the pan and stir into your noodles until evenly distributed. Plate and serve with a little bit of kimchi and you’re good to go!:)
Notes
If you don’t like or have access to shiritaki noodles, you can ABSOLUTELY sub it out with some zucchini noodles, or even spaghetti squash and your end product might only go up about a hundred calories. Implement your own ingredients for a twist.
I recommend using this as a base recipe for a balanced, nutritional meal or a snack as part of a balanced diet.
Organized by cal because I wasn’t sure where anyone’s limit was in case people need it, so it’s gonna be very drink-heavy at the top of this! But I think you’re gonna be surprised with the cals
These are done according to the recipe with no changes, but I included the calorie content for any potential changes at the bottom to help make modifications a little faster.
Sorry about the drinks and food being put together! I thought there would be a lot less drinks lol
Also, here’s to show you that McDonald’s will not kill you!! There is good food that can still be safe! And you deserve to eat!
Beverages are made with 2% milk
>100 (mostly drinks...I don’t recommend you drink your cals, but sometimes you gotta)
