Do you eat your workout calories back? Sometimes, I eat if I'm hungry otherwise I don't
Do you eat the whole egg or just the egg whites? Yes, I usually make scrabled egg with 1 whole egg and 1 egg white.
Should i weigh myself every day? No, it would make me crazy, as weight naturally flucuates...why obcess.

Do i have to log everything? Yes, otherwise your just cheating yourself.

Why can't i lose weight even when i am eating under 1000cal a day? because you're doing it wrong
Do i have to log everything? no, only what you eat0 -
I don't see why i would eat more. The point of weight loss is to eat less calories.
And why log everything it's not like anyone will know.
Ahhhh... it's a wind up - should have read more of it before!

But if you don't eat enough your body responds by storing fat - hence gaining weight
YOU WILL KNOW - how can you be accountable to yourself and know how many calories you are actually consuming and burning if you don't?0 -
Most of the time I do, though I'm never sure how much I really burn.Do you eat your workout calories back?
I'm not a big fan of eggs so only eat them occasionally. I usually eat the whole egg, but I like an egg white omelette or frittata occasionallyDo you eat the whole egg or just the egg whites?
You can if you want, but you should expect fluctuations up and down when weighing that often.Should i weigh myself every day?
A man eating under 1000 cal a day and not losing?? See a doctor!Why can't i lose weight even when i am eating under 1000cal a day?
You don't have to log anything. But if you want to keep track of your total intake, then it's probably best to log everything.Do i have to log everything?0 -
Do you eat your workout calories back? Not most of the time... some weekends I work out because I know there will be a party or something and I want a beer or two
Do you eat the whole egg or just the egg whites? Both ways... It depends on my mood
Should i weigh myself every day? I do so I can gauge my flux in weights throughout the week. I don't log it every day
Why can't i lose weight even when i am eating under 1000cal a day? You are not eating enough. This is why I got a fitbit to see what I'm actually burning in a day. I went from eating 1500 to 1700 to 2000 now I can see on work out days I should be more like 2200-2400... maybe my body was starving
Do i have to log everything? If you want to be successful0 -

Do you eat your workout calories back?
I keep cals constant.
Do you eat the whole egg or just the egg whites?
The whole dang thing, usually 4 or 5 of them.
Should i weigh myself every day?
If you want to, just don't get caught up in the emotional roller coaster of up and down on a day to day basis
Why can't i lose weight even when i am eating under 1000cal a day?
Do some research on it. Plenty of it out there.

Yes
I cannot eat eggs.
It on your mentality, I'd say every week.
Because everything you put inside your body comprises of weight , I drink 1 litre of water my weight increases 1kg.
Yes if you want to be accurate.0 -

And why log everything it's not like anyone will know.
Because at less than 1200 calories your body begins to store everything as fat because it's not sure when it's next source of nutrients would be (hence starvation mode) Diet is only part of the loss, you really need to do more exercising and less cutting of calories.
Logging isn't for the benefit of anyone else but yourself. It's to show you each and every day how many calories are in everything you consume, to keep you accountable and to keep you on track. Do it, don't do it. That part is up to you, but it has nothing to do with anyone else on MFP.0 -

Do you eat your workout calories back? When I'm hungry.
Do you eat the whole egg or just the egg whites? I don't eat eggs. If I did I would eat the whole egg, but I'm vegan so I'm not getting cholesterol from anywhere and it's not a big deal. So take those things into consideration.
Should i weigh myself every day? No.
Why can't i lose weight even when i am eating under 1000cal a day? Because you're slowly killing your body and it's just trying to survive.
Do i have to log everything? Highly recommended.0 -
I can't believe people actually ask these type of questions some times. Stupid uneducated dumb turtle. :bigsmile:
Do you eat your workout calories back?
If you are trusting the Math on MFP then yes, at least most of them. However it is not always neccesary when you are more educated on weight loss and know what you are doing.
Do you eat the whole egg or just the egg whites?
This is actually a very highly debatable topic. However it really can be simplified. If you want the entire nutritional benefit of an egg then eat the whole thing. However if you have concerns with Cholesterol then it would be unwise to eat the yolk on a frequent basis.
Should I weigh myself every day?
For the majority of people the answer is no, however for a select few that understand the daily fluctuation and don’t let those fluctuations bother them the frequency of weighing is not an issue.

Metabolic rate. Look it up. You have to eat to be healthy.

If you know someone that eats like this then please send them this link.
Do i have to log everything?
No you do not. You don’t have to do anything. For many logging is not necessary. However for many others logging can be very beneficial. If you want to accurately keep track of your food intake then log everything0 -
