Get your scale to move!

Add me as a freind and I will look at your diary. I'm not an expert but I know what works. If your frustrated with the same number day after day, let me help you. I ask nothing in return
I just want ppl to feel how I do when I lose. So many ppl don't know the foods they eat are potentially adding weight even if they are eating a deficit!

Lets get fit

LOL) :happy:

    Pretty sure there are many who would disagree with this statement completely.

    I know what works for me - following my macros, staying within my calorie goal and eating whole and fresh foods over processed - and I'm pretty sure it's what works for most people as well. It's what the forums here generally discuss anyway, so um, thanks and hope you can help some new people who haven't read much or gotten the hang of this healthier lifestyle. :-)

    Please explain the bolded. Do you have any links to peer reviewed studies that we can look over to figure out why a calorie wouldn't equal a calorie?

    Also, I was wondering...could you make your diary public? Maybe we could take a look to also help give us a better idea as to where you are coming from along with any studies that might help us better understand :smile:

    I know what works too. Eating at a deficit. No single food will make you gain weight.

    Alot of people really aren't sure what to eat. So I'm trying to reach out and help people continue their weight loss with smarter food choices. I know when I eat certain foods I stop losing weight and I will help as many people as possible despite the judging and negative feedback on this thread.

    Now lets get fit!!

    I find that white starchy foods: potatos, white rice, bread, refined sugar etc...all stall my loss. On the other hand when I eat foods like fish, chicken, brown rice I lose more weight. (obvious, yes)I dont lose weight easily, but when I eat the right combination of foods I lose consistantly. Everybody is different you just thave to keep adjusting your numbers until you find something that works-then stick to it like crazy! :)

    Thats the great thing about MFP you always have a record of what worked and what didnt! You also have the added bonus of support from like minded people

    Interesting! And do you find that to be the case with calories and protein held constant? Also, any supplements in the mix?
