Eating healthy, working out, but not seeing results?

I feel like I've gone too far. This box has 6 servings because my sister is a hog, but as I said, as prepared is at least 400.

Like I said. It has more than 2 servings.
But I've never seen a box with 6 servings before. Maybe it's just a regional thing?
I know that the standard box used to have 4 servings, but they dropped it down to 2 sometime this past year... and charged more money.
At least here, anyway.

How did you get the photo to post?
I've tried everything, and it still just comes out as a link.

Ah, but you miss the point # of servings doth not equal calories per serving. Your box CANNOT possibly be made with whole milk due to the fat count, your fat count is like 1% so you have one that isn't supposed to be made with whole milk to begin with because your fats are way off.

You get the 6 serving boxes at places that are known for selling in bulk.

To get an image you have to find an image hosting sight, convert the IMG to img in the brackets and then post here. Real simple once you get it. It took me a few edits to get it right the first time. xD

Fat count is 1%?
Where exactly does it say that?
From what I can see (and how I was told to read nutrition boxes), it has 8% fat... and 15% of that 8% is saturated fat.
3% difference between prepared and unprepared.

So while I get your point about it not possibly being able to be made with whole milk, I do know that the majority of Mac N Cheeses I've made over the years has said (prepared with whole milk), and I never paid attention to the difference.
That part is my fault... and I'll definitely be re-readjusting the calories.

Thanks. That'll save me from having to make 3 boxes at the next family cook out. lol

And thank you! haha

Posting pic for OP since she is having trouble.

Her box:

OP, what brand is that? As others have said, no way that's for whole milk. Curious what the instructions actually are.

And, +1 to RMR testing. University physiology labs will usually do it cheap for you. If your metabolism really is "shot", then at least you'll know. I still vote for way overestimating calorie burns.

Edit to resize.

"The absolute minimum you should be eating is 1200. If you eat any less and persistently eat less at this amount, your body will start to think you're starving yourself and will therefore change so that it can retain as much fat in the body as possible as well as absorb as much fat from you do eat. (Example, notice how starving people in poorer countries always have a bloated looking belly?) "

Yeah, yeah I have noticed that. Do you know why that is? It certainly isn't because they are storing excess fat in their belly area because that is utterly riduclous. What a concept, starve yourself to get fatter. No, it is because they are starving to death so badly that their body has consumed their rectus and transverse abdominus muscle and it is no longer girdling in their interal organs which then literally spill down and forward pressing against the skin and distending the belly. It is a condition associated with severe protein deprivation and is most prevalent and noticeable in young children where the irritation causes edema (accumulation of fluid due to inflammation) which adds to the distention of the belly.

They are NOT retaining fat in their stomachs because they are startving to death, when you are starving your body does NOT decide to start storing away fat do you understand what a ludicrous statement that is? Did you seriously believe they were fat? Seriously, take the time to look at a picture of a starving child and mentally picture and understand that the reason their belly looks like that is because their body is so weakened and their muscle so reabsorbed that their organs are literally spilling out of them. Less cute now isn't it.

One of the best posts I've seen. Please post this everywhere someone comes out with that nonsense.

Sorry I work at a disease research institute that specializes in diseases that afflict the developing world and that sort of callous ignorance just rubs me the wrong way. Seriously...thought they were making themselves fat?
