sorry ...in a rush
if you look at my history, i only have had the appetite issue for the last few days which has lead to some very low calorie days. Most of the time i am around 1200-1700 calories per day. most of this has be contributed to me working on the house and either having a very quick small meal or just skipped a meal, such as lunch.
I looked at the past two weeks. You only broke 1k calories 8 times (most just barely broke 1k). One day you were over. The other days you were between 600 and 900. This isn't healthy.
^^^ +1
I also note that you are using entries that are more descriptive than a specific number of grams ie. salmon - 1 fillet, avocado - small......this may be a problem in the future as you get closer to goal. The best investment you will make is a set of food scales and to always use them.
Rather than looking for a specific cookbook or confining your search by an eating "system" use the vast internet resources to explore recipes based around the foods that you are already readily consuming. It would be a starting point and more than likely give you more options on how to prepare them in different more pleasing ways.

No. Eating a surplus of calories causes you to gain weight.
Then why did i gain weight when the only difference in my diet was cheese?
So you were eating 700-1000 calories (as you are now) and gaining weight?? Which dates was this in your diary? How much did you gain?0 -
I did get a food scale but my wife refuses to use it. I ask her how much she adds to the meal and the answer is never accurate so i use my best guess possible. It is highly likely that the calories that are being shown on myfitnesspal could be less than accurate. But I definitely agree with you. Thanks for your suggestions

Your weight fluctuated by 2lb, so you deduced it was fat gain caused by cheese while eating in a large deficit.... And not water retention (the correct answer)?0 -

There is no proof it was water retention either. This is the diet that is working for me so why change it if it is working? As long as I feel good, my energy level is high, and my blood work comes back good, i see nothing wrong with what I am doing.0 -
Hi well done for the weight loss. I have been following the Diet doctor which is low carb they have some pretty good advice. I also follow the Rosedale Diet by Ron Rosedale. He explains all about problems with weight loss in an easy to understand way. Give them a Google and see what you think. Good luck...0

Can you tell me if its worked for you so far? how much have you lost and in what period of time? I havent had a chance to read it but results say a lot as well.0 -

There is... It's scientifically impossible to gain fat in a calorie deficit, so it IS water... Especially when you consider that cheese can be high sodium....
The thing with sticking to such an unhealthy calorie goal with so many food groups cut out is that you're just swapping disordered over eating, which made you fat, for disordered under eating.
Yes, if you're very overweight you can sustain a larger calorie deficit, but there's a difference between low and too low.0 -

You got a good point about cheese being high sodium and causing the weight gain by retaining water, i never thought about that, but doesn't that kind of say, if cheese is high in sodium, maybe it isn't the best for a diet since it makes you retain water?
I am eating a lot healthier than I was previously. I would never eat a salad, eat fish, protein, worry about what i was eating at all. I have changed all of that.0 -
I still don't have much time
but
What you are doing is damaging your body in the long-term and probably decimating your current LBM as well as storing up other issues - if your calories are accurate which I see that as you're not weighing they most probably aren't
If you decide to low carb you have to high fat / high protein
The minimum for a man is 1500 calories - dependent on your current weight you should not be aiming to lose more than 2lb a week .. if you are obese then up to 3.3lbs otherwise extremely high risk of gallstones / kidney issues
You should have a minimum amount of protein .. base it on 0.64g per lb of bodyweight - I'm pretty sure you should get much higher than the 60 odd grammes I see you hitting (I'm a 5'8 woman at goal weight and my minimum protein is 100g .. MINIMUM)
You need protein for tissue repair, hormones, lots of things
You also need fats .. 0.35g per lb of bodyweight again as a minimum
You've cut out dairy - where is your calcium coming from
You may well be losing weight at the moment but not in the most healthy way
And this is something I am pretty certain all succesful people .. whether on CICO, IIFYM, Low-Carb, Keto would agree on - do you know how often that happens? ... squadron of pigs flying past your window time .. that's when0 -

Actually I did cook this weekend but I work far away so by the time i go to and come back from work i have enough time to eat and sleep. My wife is good enough to have dinner ready for me which is extremely nice of her. the reason for the recipes is if she followed them then i could manually put the items into myfitnesspal and keep track of things that way. It was just an idea.0 -

Or just make sure you're drinking enough water...
You're refusing to acknowledge the fact that eating too little is bad for you. Until you get that, nothing anyone is saying here will help.0 -

calcium, = i take a wodpack every day as a vitamin suppliment. the protein amount for me is insane, its hard to eat that much in a day to be honest. I have tried and only got up to 125g 1 day, i was soo full i was about to explode and i exceeded my calorie intake when i did that. My goal weight is 220, so its 140.8g of protein a day. for fat you are saying i need 108.5g/day of fat? wow that is a bunch as well.0 -
If you are low carbing you should be high protein / high fat
What is your current weight?0 -
right now it is 309.70
-
-
So you'd be aiming at 197g protein and 108g fat
Protein and Carbs have 4 calories per g
Fat has 9 calories per g
So Protein would make 788 cals, Fat 972 cals giving you a starting point of 1760 cals
What's your age and height .. lets get you a decent calorie target
But you are going to have to think about estimating / weighing much better for this to make any sense

Your body and your appetite got you where you were before you started losing weight, why exactly are they going to be more reliable indicators all of a sudden because you've decided to go down?
In my personal opinion (not based on anything I've read, or can site) your body and appetite play passive aggressive games with you. Quiet when they're convinced that there is no food to be had during caloric suppression; and clamouring for you to eat everything in sight when they sniff out that food can be had (which usually leads to rebound weight gain)
Regardless of my own thoughts about appetite, VLCD's have one purpose only: shed weight fast, regardless of associated avoidable risks (and damage to a patient's heart and death ARE things that have happened to people on VLCDs)
So why would one chose to NOT avoid avoidable risks? Usually because they are trying to mitigate a larger health risk by dropping the weight rapidly. Which is why VLCDs are traditionally supervised by a doctor.
And since you are not netting a good 1500Cal a day, you are certainly skirting (V)LCD territory!
Given your implied health challenges, are you currently monitored by doctors? What are their suggestions in regards to your weight loss? Are they suggesting that the faster the loss the better? Or are they more concerned with your ability to maintain the weight loss longer term? Do they, or you, care whether you preserve your lean muscle mass during weight loss? and are they suggesting the food choices you're making?
I personally disagree with all/most diets as I've watched people around me try various restrictive diets again and again, only to eventually gain all the weight back plus a little bit extra. As such, for myself, I've chosen to pretty much eat whatever I feel like AS LONG AS I am under my caloric goal (most of the time), while eating a gram of protein per lb of lean body mass (all the time), and a good 20g of fiber a day (for my personal comfort)
I am aware that people with heart problems are often steered towards the Ornish, TLC and DASH diets. You might want to look into them.
Last but not least, VLCDs that are designed to preserve the highest amount of lean muscle mass do exist; but, I am uncomfortable discussing them as you would normally undertake them under medical supervision, which generally means that you wouldn't be asking for advice in a forum.
Which then brings us to the real question which is: do you have a really good reason why TDEE-20%, TDEE-25% if you want to be a rebel, are not good enough for you? Why are you trying to lose weight along the lines of TDEE-50%, possibly TDEE-60+%?

Look
Are you going to stick with low carb? Because you said in your OP that you wouldn't?
Don't you want to learn how to maintain?
You should be aiming at 2700 calories
If you are Low Carbing then hell yes .. butter, fat from meat, cheese, heavy creams etc0 -

It does. Go to "Reports" in the top blue menu bar, then find "Kilojoules" and "Net Kilojoules".0 -

I have no idea what TDEE means, could you elaborate? I agree with you about listening to my food cravings, i never really thought about it that much.
When i went to the doctors and showed them myfitnesspal they only looked at that current day and never really spent the time to look at any history so I am sure they never gave me a good picture, which is why i was relying mostly on my blood results to see if I was "ok" or not. They said they like that i am logging my food and keep up the good work. To be honest with you I don't think she was really focused at the time on me and was more worried about other patients needed waiting on.
I am obese but my open heart surgery was due to an anerism on my aortic valve and not due to my wieght so i really dont have any outstanding conditions. I do however have to take daily medicine for the rest of my life because of my mechanical heart valve. lopressor to keep my heart in rythym and warfarin (cumadin) to keep my blood thin. As well as having to watch how much vitamin K i consume. I do take my blood regularly to check my levels (every 2 weeks) to make sure i am at the proper levels. I dont know if you wanted me to explain all of that but just in case you were wondering, there you go.
You do make some valid points though.0 -
