is this question for me? if so what do you mean...
When you filled out MFP profile, It ask for goals and weekly goals to eat for calories? how much you want to lose? How quick you want to lose it? These are number you need to know to figure out how much to eat to lose weight.

I didn't even notice the first photo. Also did not know it was who it was or I would of knew right off the back that it was fake. Also why is asking a question=starting an argument?

It's feeling a little excessive in this thread (if you're looking for an honest reaction- because I kind of had the same response)0 -

Well you are wrong. The only person who I am in disagreement with is myself for lack of dedication for upcoming beach season that I have never been ready for physically or mentally.0 -

I'm not wrong. A feeling is not wrong.
I said it was FEELING that way. Because that's the way it's reading to me. So no- I wasn't feeling wrong.
Feelings aren't wrong- they just are.

well like i was saying before I dont really count calories or grams and percents and things. I eat a mostly plant-based diet and incorporating raw foods soon so I expect my body to just do what it would naturally do seeing as Im feeding it what it needs and not what I want. I practice portion control by eating frequently as my body suggests when im hungry and eating until im satisfied, not full. it works for me. The thing is I use to yo yo in weight and then when I went plant based I would binge at times so this is where the extra fat came from in the unwanted areas. And also I had troubles eating regularly. I didnt eat enough...at all. Im 5'6 and 150lbs. But my body consistently drops inches....as I believe its just fixing itself to a natural state now....whatever size at whatever weight. I have been consistent with my eating for a while now so I am now incorproating exercise and not completely sure how to make sure Im getting enough for my workouts. Does this mean now I have to do the calorie count and gram count and percent count and so forth?0 -

Not to confuse you but you might have to count calories. There is nothing wrong with that. I have loss weight with both methods(counting and not counting). One method has more data which makes it easier to stay consistent. It all depends on how you estimate your exercise calories. I'm not going to try to sell you on counting because I was there and didn't want to at first. What I will say is when you count calories you can have a better idea on if you are eating enough for your exercise level. Also some people do have some sort of heart rate monitor to calculate there exercise calories. They claim it is very close for exercise calorie burns.0 -

Maybe yes, maybe no. What works in the beginning stages of weight loss doesn't necessarily work the whole way through. I lost 30 something pounds without counting calories and then got stuck and had to tighten up my method by weighing/measuring food and counting calories. Usually when you change your way of eating, such as cutting out meat, you drop calories for at least awhile due to just cutting out an entire food group. I cut out the majority of grains and sweets during that 30 pound period, for instance. But as time goes on you either start eating more or your weight drops enough that your required calories in decreases to the point where you're no longer eating in a deficit. At that point you need to either count calories or devise another way to be sure to create that deficit again if you want to lose weight because as far as weight loss goes, what you eat does not matter but how much you eat does.0 -
thanks guys. VERY true and very helpful. Since we are on the nutrition...my aim is not to lose weight, its to gain muscle. My original post talks about me wanting to lift heavy so that i can firm, lift, and get cut. I know naturally I will lose more wight but thats not the point anymore. I want to the above plus preserve my curves. This is my focus now. So with that being said...this is where my concern for eating enough comes from. I know i have to eat more now but Not sure how to tell if im eating enough for heavy lifting. Im starting next week. From what you all are saying though, Im thinking i would have to start counting...0

Without counting calories we cannot tell you how much more you need to eat to fuel your body.

According to bodybuilding.com, "when trying to gain lean muscle during a rigorous exercise program, a good rule of thumb is to shoot for an intake of about 13-15 calories per pound of bodyweight. So for a 110-pound woman, total daily calories would be between 1,430 to 1,650; for a 150-pound woman, about 1,950 to 2,250."
bodybuilding.com has a lot of good information if you are serious about gaining muscle.0 -

You're going to have a difficult timing fufiflling these two bolded goals.
Honestly if you aren't lifting now- and you are a reasonable height and weight currently.
1.) start logging/weighing/tracking your foods.
2.) Figure out what maintenance is- and do that.
3.) start lifting (starting strength/strong lifts/new rules of lifting/strong curves)
4.) stick with it for at least 6 months.
5.) determine if you need to lose more- or you need gain.
