This video is really an eye opener.

Weight was down 3 lbs the day after, but I didn't notice anything different until 2 months in.

I have lost exactly that much in 4 months. All I did was calculate my TDEE and eat reduced calories accordingly. I weigh myself everyday so I have info to make adjustments on the way(which I have done- started eating 1550- upped to 1700-upped to 1800) I'm now losing 1.5 lbs per week as of March. I'm 5'11" male.

Going by some guidelines I gathered while researching my own macro calculations, if I were you, at this weight, my starting caloric goal and macros would be: 156x10= 1560 cal P= 0.8x156= 125 gr F= 0.4x156= 62 gr C= 1560- 1058= 502/4= 125 gr I would go by these numbers for a month or two and then evaluate my progress. As I…

So is she eating more than she thinks or not enough?

Hi Group, I'm Ayhan from Ankara,TURKEY. I work in my own little pizza delivery shop, its 14 hours work for 6 days. Sundays I spend with my daughter so no work just fun that day. I started my weight loss journey on the 17th of November and have lost 25kg(55 lbs) so far. What are my goals?: Well I aim to hit 215 lbs in the…

I weigh every morning but take the Sunday reading as the reference point.

At your height and current weight, it doesn't seem logical to try to lose 2 lbs/week. It is easier to lose when you have lots to, but as you get closer to your healthy range it gets harder. You should calculate your BMR and TDEE and find a caloric range based on those numbers. Here's a link to calculate them:…

I weigh every morning but take the number of one day of the week(Sunday) as a reference point to my weight loss progress.

I'm losing 1 a month.

You can eat whatever you want and still lose if you are on a caloric deficit. That said, junk food is often more calorie dense and less filling for the amount you will have within your calorie and macro goals so they are not worth having too often.

I believe for someone on a weight loss plan, "cheat days" or "cheat meals" are a path for failure and disaster. If you are someone looking forward to your cheat day, as you approach your goal weight I think you will have cheat periods instead of meals because you are more comfortable with your weight and feel you can get…

It's good for sunburn too :)

I have adopted the same approach regarding the macros, hopefully will see similar results. Good job on your weight loss.

That is amazing! Also thanks for the valuable advice.

I've lost 30 lbs in 1,5 months by sticking to my calorie goal to lose 2 lb/week. Did no exercise during that time. (SW: 281 lbs)

I weigh myself everyday, seeing the difference day to day is just fun.

Hi and good luck on your weight loss journey. I wouldn't worry too much about sugar amount or cholesterol for that matter. You'll be better off focusing on your calories consumed and try to get close to your macro goals(protein-fat-carbs) for the day.

Good luck!

That is really amazing *gasp*!!! What a transformation, truly magnificent!!

Amazing turnaround, congratulations!

That is a fantastic number, hard to grasp but goes to show that it is attainable and doable in the long run. Congratulations!

I use it in salads, delicious.
