    Does your tracker say 0 lbs lost. I think maybe you want to keep your diet advice to yourself.
    I'm not dieting.

    Edit:
    Also, it's not my diet advice, its Layne Norton's (Bodybuilding/figure/physique coach, IFPA & NGA natural pro bodybuilder, Professional Powerlifter with a PhD in Nutritional Sciences with honors) diet advice.

    The video where he discusses the topic:

    Was posting to the OP.. I just hate how people judge each other around here. Thought I'd match judgement for judgement.
    Oh then I apologize for the misunderstanding!
  • i used to eat 1100 a day, now i eat 1400+ and do the same amount of exercises and i lose just as much as i did at 1100 (1lb a week)

    Drink plenty of water to keep your hunger away and remain in your calorie limit.

    Actually, by his ticker, he wants to gain three pound. Not everyone's ticker is a fully history of their weight changes. Some people change them as they reach and set new goals.

    Exactly my point. If you are not trying to lose why even have an opinion on those who are.

    Folks who melt down around here (the original topic) will melt 1200 call 2200 cal. Melters are melters. People who broadcast their business are going to do that no matter what goes in their mouths.

    Don't assume because someone isn't currently losing that they don't know anything about losing or haven't lost.

    I'm not trying to lose anymore. I haven't been trying to lose for a year and a half. I'm here to maintain my loss and improve my fitness, which, incidentally, is no easier than losing weight... it just allows for a little more calories. Sometimes, I felt I looked a little too thin and purposefully gained a few pounds. Does that mean everything I learned about losing is invalid?

    Judging by the ridiculous amount of messages and requests I get, I think there's a lot of people who appreciate that I share my opinion and don't keep my advice to myself.

    Huh? Melters? So now we have special snowflakes and labels for other kinds of special snowflakes?

    :huh:

    So anyhow, I stand by my original observation (and subsequent clarifications).

    As for whether or not I have any business discussing effective weight loss because I have no need to lose any weight right now...well, I'll just let you ponder that one. No, seriously, think it all the way through.

    If you excercise you can eat more than 1,200 calories and not be hungry.

    And for many people, even if they don't exercise, they can also eat more than 1200 calories and not be hungry.
