    Does Losing Weight Make You Happier?

    October 14, 2022 /

    For most people, losing weight does seem to make them happier, because then their weight is one less thing to worry about, it provides a sense of accomplishment, and can allow the individual to feel more comfortable in their body.

I had been away from home for my first extended period of time, I studied abroad there. I was away from my Mom’s home cooked food, and in the school dining hall ate everything in front of me. Kind…

    September 29, 2022 /

    To lose weight when you feel hopeless, you can identify the root cause of the hopelessness, which may involve seeking professional help, take the process one day at a time, and not beat yourself up for backslides. I certainly know what it feels like to be hopeless. There have been multiple times in my life where I felt absolutely and completely hopeless. I was in so much agony that I did not know how I would ever come out alive, or have anything resembling a life again. Sometimes, I still feel a bit hopeless at times. But I think that I have gotten through the worst of it, I have…

    A real weight loss journey

    September 15, 2022 /

    Hello! My name is Max. This is my very first blog post on this project. I decided that I really wanted to write a blog on something that I am currently going through myself, so I can write honestly and can speak candidly on the topic. So I thought, what am I currently doing in my life? And the answer was: dieting. I’ll start by giving you a little bit of background about my diet and weight loss story. Last summer I was weighing in at 130 pounds. Over the course of the past year, I put a little bit of weight on, up to about 168 pounds. I’ve been…

Hi, my name is Max! I've wanted to lose a bit of weight, so I started this blog with the idea to experiment with a bunch of different diets and see how they work for me, so I can share my findings with you. Because I have a masters degree in epidemiology/public health, I am also interested in nutritional epidemiology, and plan on exploring that a bit.
