Recomp?
I started working out early this year and I'm currently at 57kg. My height is 162cm. I workout 4x/week and eat mostly, 1200cal/day.

Meats that are good for Keto

Sanity check on exercise adjustment...
My activity level is set at not very active and my goal is set as lose 2lb a week, which puts me on a 1,200 calorie allowance. (I suspect in reality, I should be eating less for the maths to work, but MFP rightly caps you at 1,200 calories.) I've worked out that the activity adjustment my Garmin gives me through MFP is…

I need snack ideas...
Snacks are my pitfall, and I have recognized a flaw in my current mentality that I am working on changing. Starting out with MFP (Sept 2019) I literally ran for chocolate some days - it was a way to earn a few extra calories when my daily budget was fairly low. Now that my mileage (running and biking) is increasing I need…

Just shared a recipe w/ a coworker (who uses WW and is happy with it for the most part) and she asked why I included quantities in grams.
