1,412lbs + 70lbs = 1,482

You can't lose weight if you eat late in the day. It's calories that count, not time they are eaten.

Above are 2 detailed explanations why it is a bad idea. My personal experience; I was on a diet, which was tracked through my health authority (at the beginning). I stopped attending meetings but continued with diet. Thinking it was safe, as NHS. (As a very sedentary, as disabled, late 40's female). Was very obese and…

June to December 2014 Lost 28lb in 14 wks, but then started to struggle to hit "weight loss" target. It was a stressful time in my life, after a month, I decided it was 1 stress I could remove for my life. So made a concious decision to stop for 6 weeks, until Christmas. Then recommit to weight loss, on the New Year (Jan…

Welcome back, a great idea. Why? I personally feel it is the Daily logging, of everything, that finally put an end to year's & year's of yoyo dieting/weight gain. Day in & day out, no excuses, no exceptions. Having built up an accurate data base of my regular foods, it only takes a few minutes a day. A healthy habit, just…

I don't follow keto, so others may be of more help about ketosis. But you don't mention calories, only carbs. If your only counting/tracking carbs, but still eating more calories than you burn, then you won't see weight loss. For weight loss, It's the balance regards Calories in verses Calories out that matters. Keto is a…

Weighing condiments ie onion chutney or low fat mayo, in sandwiches or rolls etc. I've found the happy ground between having enough and being tasty. Without going overboard and adding unnecessary calories. Even saving 50 calories a day, while barely noticing the difference, means another 5lb lost in a year.

Your body doesn't recognise time, but overall weight (lose/maintenance/gain) is determined through CI v CO. Eating at any time throughout the day or night isn't important, it's wht suits you and your routine. But if your deficit is only 300 at the moment and you eat extra food, therefore additional calories. It will reduce…

Update: just checked in Tesco, UK. As I happened to be in store today. Very similar product. They list 55 calories per or 216 calories per 100g. Hope this helps, higher in calories than some pork, because of the fat content in cuts used.

Average slice is 55 calories per slice. If weighed for more accurate logging. Then 292 calories per 100g. Your package above states 0.410kg. So this would have been a total of 1,197 calories for the entire pack. If you don't/can't weigh & the slices a similar size if pre sliced. Then divide 1,197 by number of slices, for…

I'm not very mobile, use a wheelchair. (I do have help). If you can get food delivery. I find salads quick and easy. Small amount of prep time and no cooking needed. Can even get pre washed salads. (They are a little more expensive, probably still cheaper than take away). Lots of volume, can be lower in calories & good…

I try to stick to (flexible for very special occasions) to the 80/20 rule. 80% of my calories on healthy, nutritious foods. Allowing up to 20% of calories for "foods I really fancied/treats". When I shopped, or encouraged others in my household to do the same. I would buy "snack/treat" foods for the rest of my household…

Tracking everything, over time, with frequent weight loss records. Has taught me what calorie levels "I need", in my current lifestyle to lose or maintain, my current weight. It finally helped me to lose 59lb. Looking back I knew I had accurate data to compare, as everything was logged. If foods were missing from the logs,…

Some people want 2lb a week loss, but over time it becomes a struggle. Making it difficult & then "binge" occasionally, undoing the hard work. Or even stop because its to hard. If you slowed down your weight loss, as suggested above. By eating those few extra calories, on a daily basis. Makes it easier to continue, then…

I realise this is an older thread, but as you checked back in yesterday, I would just like to add my experience. I've had similar situations but from both ends, at the same time. So my weight & way I dressed were similar. I know constant pain & weight gain didn't help. But there were often wide variations. I became…

Having read this reply, I felt I would try to clarify my post, (I hope). My "fat" loses were being hidden by water weight changes. Dropping the water weight, revealing fat loss. A trend that shows over time.

You don't (necessarily) lose weight, at a set rate, even if you have a set deficit. "Pizza" calories are no different to calories from so called "healthy foods" for just weight change. If eating pizza, didn't put you over your maintenance. But a calorie deficit over time, will "eventually" show on the scales. But 1 days…

Some great advice already, so won't repeat. But I just wanted to add. You stated: I admit I am not the most precise calorie counter, I guesstimate here and there if its not something I can just scan. [/quote] Along with more precise weighing & logging, to track more accurately. Make sure that when you scan items, directly…

Several times in the past couple of weeks, I've attempted to read the forums. But they've been offline, while rest of app was working. Perhaps once a day, sometimes twice. But since the weekend, things seem to be back to normal. Though I've been busier & not had time to check in as often. Which may have made the difference.

I suggest you look back over your last few posts, since May 27th. You have asked this question and a couple of others, that are linked. You've had great advice from some mfp veterans who know what they are talking about. With some linked posts to read, to help you understand. Yet you continue to rephrase the same question,…

Agree completely that you should speak with your husband's medical team and perhaps get a referral for a dietician. As weight loss is now a problem. Perhaps log everything, he is eating accurately. So you can show them what/how much he is eating. While you MUST speak to his Doctor, I just want to mention a problem I had.…

Thanks, have changed settings, will see if it makes a difference

I have now changed all my settings this morning, thanks. Although not sure when my settings changed before, or if It's changes on mfp end. Will now wait and see, was hopeful, until I checked in to thank for settings info, and read your update.

Thanks,

Thanks, I wasn't sure how to repost links.

I prefer the app (wether on my tablet or phone) but both android. I've just had a look through settings and I can't find anything that disables the blog videos. On my home page, they constantly play, no off or pause, that I can find. The only thing I can do is mute them, so don't have constant audio as well. Not sure how…

I checked mine and it uses 4.8GB a month. Fortunately I have been using it at home and have unlimited data, so is not costing a fortune. My son had a quick look and its because all the blog videos on the home page are running in the background. Even though I don't watch any, it's still using data. Which is ridiculous and…

OP you need to consider your health. Especially as your bmi is already at the lower end and your 18, or just turned 19. I am only saying this out of concern for you. It seems to be already having a negative impact. You have had 3 or 4 posts over the past couple of weeks. Some asking about extreme weight loss methods of…

THE RULES OF THE #75HARD CHALLENGE 1. Follow a strict diet - no cheat meals for the entire 75 days. Calorie counting is not essential but the diet must eliminate chocolate, cake, soft drinks and alcohol. 2. Workout twice a day for at least 45 minutes, with one outdoor session. 3.
