Intuitive eating: The non-diet that lets you eat anything you want

A woman has revealed the “lazy” way she dropped 25kg in just eight months.

While dieting is often conflated with boring meals of chicken and rice or salad, TikTok user Megg shared she was able to eat McDonald’s for lunch and pizza for dinner if she wanted to – and still achieve an unbelievable transformation.

“I’ve lost 59 pounds (25kg) in the span of eight months, so if you’re trying to lose weight, listen the f**k up,” she began in one video, as reported by The Sun.

“I’ve been on a weight loss journey for 10 years – 10 f**king years – and I’ve tried every diet under the sun.

“I’ve tried keto and Shakeology (a ‘superfood nutrition shake’ that’s claimed to help dieters lose weight), and it doesn’t work.

“And now I’m eating a f**king cheeseburger from McDonald’s for lunch, and nuggets with sweet and sour sauce and I’m still losing weight.”

Megg went on to reveal that her secret hack was to stick to a calorie deficit.

“I make sure I eat less calories in a day than what my body burns naturally,” she said.

She also encouraged others to try the weight loss method.

“We still have time in the year to turn this b*tch around and become the people we wanna be,” she said.

“We can lose the weight, and we can lose it for good. That’s f**king it, let’s go!”

People were quick to comment on Megg’s video, with one sharing their own experience with the diet: “Calorie deficit for three months and down 23lbs (10kg).”

“Calorie deficit is the ONLY way,” another wrote.

While a third said: “I lost 85kg in 18 months by counting calories.”

In another video on her TikTok page, Megg shared some impressive before and after pictures.

“When people say you can’t eat McDonald’s and pizza and still lose weight,” she wrote.

“If you’re looking for a sign, this is it! Losing weight is so hard! Know that you can still eat the food you love AND lose weight.”

“Do you ever go over calories? You are amazing,” one person commented on that video.

To which Megg replied: “Yeah definitely. I always tell myself tomorrow is a new day and get back in the saddle quickly.”
