I have an aunt who lost 60 kg and got off meds by eating breakfast late and dinner early, and skipping lunch. Then she got a new boyfriend and started cooking big dinners for him and gained everything back and got back on the meds and added more meds.
That's pretty typical. Men don't understand why many women get fat once they have a partner, and why they then lose weight after a breakup, but it's like... there is only one factor changing in this situation. 😏
Trying to stay thin, when you have a family, is actually a never-ending nightmare because most children and men eat ginormous amounts of food and are constantly thinking and talking about food, and you spend hours every day in the kitchen. And men like big plates and bowls, and normal portions look ridiculous on them, so you'll invariably start increasing your own portion to fill the dishes.
My daughter and I have switched to salad plates and dessert bowls. That's like half the win, right there.
I prefer a breakfast and a late lunch combo. GM isn’t really a GM without breakfast ☀️
