How tall are you? How much do you weigh? Current body fat %? Or Waist size in inches? Not sure you will get a helpful answer without providing the above info.

Not in the way you're (wishfully) thinking it will.

I'm not sure that's how it works

^I should have said "plenty of us guys and women" above. Didn't mean for that to come off as a guys only thing

Yah, and how many full grown males are 10 pounds away from being at 6% body fat and are seeking advice for a "six pack push"? And yes, there are plenty of us guys who can do those things without quitting or feeling miserable :)

Exercising 1000 calories in a day isn't that unreasonable. Anybody training to run a marathon or cycle a century would easily blow by that number. It's probably 1.5 hours or so of fairly vigorous/steady exercise (like say playing soccer or full court basketball). I don't understand why you think that would be difficult for…

If it really bothers you, maybe next time bring your personal scale with you to the doctor's office. That way you can rule out out any discrepancies between your doctor's scale and yours. Might give you peace of mind.

I understand being upset about your employer being too concerned with your health/private life, but I’m just curious: are you equally upset about the discount your employer offers for nonsmokers? Smoking, like being overweight, can have negative health effects. If you are ok with your company offering a discount for one,…

This times 100. So many people here seem convinced that they are accurately logging their calorie intake/expenditures (even though evidence suggests this is not the case), and then they complain when they don't see the results they want. Listen to your body. If you're not losing weight--unless you have an underlying…

I know it is said in pretty much every thread, but most people vastly overestimate how many calories they burn through exercise and underestimate how many calories they consume. In this particular case, the OP says he is having “home made beef stew” for dinner at a total of 264 calories. Umm, is there any beef in that…
