This I lose weight because of my deficit i created the exercise i do because i love to get fitter and be active. and yes it gives me more room to eat extra...but is not needed. For people who dont like to exercise i always say...just start in the kitchen. Weigh all your food on a food scale, eat less than you daily burn…

I started walking 2 to 5 minutes a day..some days i could some days i couldn't But i sticked to it because i wanted too. :) Now…

That all depends on how much you have to lose Do you have medical issues, your age, sex and do you weigh all your food on a food scale For most people 1200 calories is what they chose because they want to lose 2 pounds a week at least but when you dont have much to lose it will be slower, and harder. But weighing your food…

oh me too I love salty foods...crisps etc jerky But learned to stay away from it as much as possible..sometimes i have 10 crisps and they get logged..doesnt seem to harm me. But going out is the biggest problem indeed I cook from scratch ( was a former chef and owned a restaurant) love to cook. But used to the no salt. I…
-
No the key is moderation and portion control, knowing how much you eat and eating less than you burn And creating a deficit. Now for a lot of people i would say dont go that low...why should you if you dont have too. I had to because of some medical issues Some people are petite But for losing fast???? nahhh just create a…

It is also when i go out for dinner, i can bank all i want...keep my calories low and than go out so i can eat some more...but bamm 4 to 6 pounds ( yes…

Just asking But the 2lbs weight gain is water weight nothing to really worry about I do know that salt is my killer in this matter i eat low salt when i eat a bit to much ( above 1500mg a day) i gain too...but lose it right away again because it is water weight. You only gain 1 pound when you eat 3500 calories SURPLUS. So…
-
I think we have to change the minds in this matter It is rare that people can...like you. And lucky you btw. I wish i could But we should encourage the other way around...weigh ALL your food on a scale...and when you do that learn if you can do without it. In some test ( studies are online somewhere) is proven that most…

Best exercise is the ones you love and will stick too. Weight loss start in the kitchen and 99% done there. Exercise helps you get fitter, and when you find something you love to do that is the best way to stick to it and keep going.

FT7 is a watch with heart rate It has a chest strap that you wear when you do cardio
-
I want the M400 too. Specially because it is waterproof but remeber it still are estimates I had a lot of data back this week and my polar FT7 is not far off. But the VO2 max and the metabolism rest test are still the most accurate options....Polar does a good job it seems to be close to those numbers But again it still…
