I take hyaluronic acid every day. Chia is a natural laxative and heavy wiping cream is yummy but needs a sweater. I love stevia. Next I will add some cacao. ( ask me about the evidenced based hyaluronic acid naked mole rat and transgenic mice study if you want to know about hyaluronic acids benefits).I use hyaluronic acid twice daily on my facial skin. I don't use any other stuff, just put sunscreen on top of it during the day, nothing at night.
Best,

One issue I have is that I have Hypothyroid, which makes things harder.
Fish and veggies is what I love, and what helps me to keep my weight under control. And than..... I binge on French Fries, and all that weight is back again, and I have to suffer for a few days as revenge to get it off again! :embarrassed:
Have you tried fries made in an air fryer? Although the fries will still have its carbs, maybe it will have fewer calories as compared to fries cooked in oil. You can also bake fries.Air frying is the best to remove oils. i tried all methods. I am a believer of air frying, but... I always make to many, and can't let them go to waste, can I?

Try to make fewer of them. Only make more if you must have more. Not having them handy to eat may make it easier to not eat them.That is the problem, if I don't put enough into the basket, I am afraid I will die on starvation or Fries withdrawal

I see. Food therapy is indicated for FFS (French fries starvation) and FFW (French fries withdrawal) syndromes. :)I am diabetic (diagnosed 25 years ago), I lost my taste for most sweet stuff. But I never was that much into sweets. But when you are intersex, you mostly don't get the good looks only, but also very bad eyes (I had lenses implanted into mine) and diabetes.
Enjoy your fries! So.... do not get started then on Albanese brand chocolates and candy.

I do weights 5x per week.
@Linde. Absolutely diet is equally important. Forgive me for not including a mention of that in my earlier post. I was simply highlighting a particular exercise routine that has worked for me personally. Obviously exercise is only half of the component for weight loss and overall heatlth. My Monday thru Friday routine is pretty boring for breakfast and lunch. Every morning I eat a ruby red grapefruit with stevia sprinkled on two halves. (Studies are mixed on the affects of grapefruit and it's weight loss properties. If anything it is a powerful antioxidant with good vitamin C. that taste good.) I also eat a bowl of Special K protein cinnamon brown sugar crunch with about 10 blueberries (blueberries are another good antioxidant.) I use low fat milk with the cereal. Oh and two cups of coffee with stevia and a teaspoon only of creamer. For lunch I eat a Chick Fil A market salad with either light balsamic vinegrete or low fat honey mustard. (No ranch or blue cheese..as this would add significant calories!) For dinner a protein, a green vegetable and a small portion of a carb. Saturday is my free day. I eat wings, burgers, fries, and have a desert. (Everyone should have a free day each week to reward yourself for being so darn disciplined all week!) Anyway that's my routine which works "for me." YMMV! Oh and if you love ice cream like I do you may want to give a low calorie dairy free ice cream a try. I eat a brand called "Enlightened" which I think taste great. If you manage to eat the whole pint (like I sometimes do;) you can remain relatively guilt free knowing the calories will total less than 400. Compared to a 1600 pint of Ben & J that's pretty darn good!Your diet sounds pretty healthy for a normal person. It would kill me, because i am diabetic. Eating a diet suitable for diabetics, is probably the healthiest way to eat for anybody.
An inexpensive digital kitchen scale will allow you to precisely control how much you eat.This combined with a calore counting app works well.
