hi, you asked for feedback, and I feel I must reply. On #2 the "is EM for over overweight people" you are too vague. The first 5 minutes repeats the same comments, no new info, we KNOW "birthdays will tempt us, and you don't want us to suffer"..how does this help learn specifics? I hung in to the last and hearing personal story is great but it never really answered clearly. People who are 50-200 overweight can hardly move or have never exercised, since this method encourage lots of body 'build up' fuel burning due to upping movement so your body can consume more..HOW will they do this? Thanks!
People who are handicapped, or older with a knee replacement, say, can do some exercise, so it seems they need a very tailored regimen when they begin to get anywhere.
CAN an obese person EM2WL without ADDED exercise or daily gym program? if so HOW. If it takes longer..give us an idea…do you know anyone >250 to talk to?0 -

Sure - the basic premise is always to eat at a reasonable deficit for the amount to lose and amount and type of activity.
Reasonable deficit, along with enough protein, and resistance training, are the 3 things that help retain muscle mass while in a diet.
If not doing resistance training, then there should be even less deficit. This would apply too if only exercise was intense cardio often.
So yes you can eat more than bare minimum to lose fat weight only.
Actually, eating bare minimum is great way to lose muscle mass too - probably shouldn't risk that if not able to exercise more, though merely moving around uses a lot more muscle than you might think.
The problem when the weight goes up is getting that decent estimate of what you actually burn daily, in order to eat less than that.
Some BMR calculators will inflate calorie burn, and therefore TDEE when multiplied out, the more overweight you are.
I've seen cases where 100 lbs overweight, the BMR was 200-400 higher calculated than tested RMR would show, and that meant estimated TDEE was 500-700 inflated higher than reality.
Well, when you take a 15% deficit off a TDEE that is inflated by that much - you'll discover you are NOT actually eating in a deficit, but at maintenance, or worse, slight surplus.
So getting a bodyfat % estimate, even rough by 5%, and using the Katch BMR, would be preferred as a starting place.
The spreadsheet on my profile page can help with that, and estimate your TDEE, that you can then take 15% off from, or 20% if really over 80 lbs to lose.
Stay on the Simple Setup and Progress tabs only, after looking over sample data in yellow cells, delete all the data in yellow cells and input your own for what you have.
Input whatever activity you do have, and there's your TDEE to use.0 -
