Nah. I just know all the foods I eat intimately and I eat the same things weekly. I underestimate what I burnt and overestimate what I ate. I do regular, heavy cardio and eat till I'm about 90% full. Keeps me in check just fine.

Easier for me to just overestimate and know I'm on the safe side. An 85 calorie peach, 2.5 calorie grape, 50 calorie plum, etc. Overestimating what I eat and underestimating what I burn is perfect.

It's individually my biggest meal - 500.

A bed of blackberries with vanilla extract.

If I got the reply you did -> The same thing I ask anyone who rolls their eyes at science: Where am I/what part of the approach is inaccurate? If they ask and sincerely want to know, I tell them to pick out an hour or two of their choice and I'd go over it with them. Just about no one follows up. Don't really get asked a…

Yuck. Pomegranates.

Like 120 pounds. Heavy cardio 4x a week'll do that.

One kilo in three months means in all likelihood, you're underestimating how much you consume and/or overestimating how much you burn. Stay committed to posting data but recheck all of it.

Offer advice -> get criticized for not using pinpoint accuracy to spoon-feed someone even though it still gives them an idea about what they can do -> tell the critic why the grain of the advice still works in a world where people can listen to their own bodies -> critic hilariously deflects.

Brilliant. Step 1: Engage someone with whom you disagree. Step 2: Elicit discussion from them. Step 3: Dismiss them by the online equivalent of sticking your fingers in your ears and saying "blah blah" after you have no ammo left. Step 4: Lean toward it not being worth your while and then come back after you've already…

Nice cop-out. You should've backpedaled for added effect, but you'd probably call that extreme exercise too.

1. No one's important enough to have everything spoon-fed to them. I don't know if you think you're the center of the universe, but generally when someone asks for advice and gets something along the tangent, there's no problem. 2. Quit assuming that a scan of someone's profile yields enough quantification to give thorough…

Exercising burns calories. Exercising more burns more calories. Burning calories counterbalances consuming calories. Burning more calories counterbalances consuming more calories, which is what she did. I never suggested dehydration. I suggested a way to crank up cardio. You're categorically misrepresenting my position.…

I accessorized an explanation in the next post. Please see - my apologies. Rowing and stair-running, bar none, make the best cardio sessions. >:) Kudos to anyone who's competitive in either.

1. I don't know where I ever suggested dehydration. 2. What defines the parameters for excessive exercise? It's about individual thresholds. If someone wants to turn up the intensity, so what? 3. Oh, fair enough. I've had no exposure to her previous threads. If they are as you say, I wouldn't have remarked on dissipating…

Is it untoward to offer a way of burning calories to someone lamenting the fact that they've consumed too many of them? If one wants to embrace a long-term approach to it, cool. If they want to play hard and keep themselves accountable the day after, there's a way to do that too. Sweating/exercise is discouraged on a…

Wear trash bags and a black hoodie along with a weighted vest (or backpack if you don't have one) and go run for 2 hours tomorrow. Rinse and repeat daily till the guilt dissipates. :) Next time there's an event, drink a lot of water and have things with not many calories but a lot of caloric density before attending so you…

You could literally throw me.

So good of you to drop by

There's no way my diet doesn't overlap with hers. A venn diagram would take less than a minute.

I just want to verify and have you peruse this: http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/high-blood-cholesterol/in-depth/trans-fat/art-20046114 "But most trans fat is formed through an industrial process that adds hydrogen to vegetable oil, which causes the oil to become solid at room temperature. This partially…

Almond milk with a scoop of whey + peanut butter keeps me going for the next 7 hours. Then I eat heavier for dinner -> sleep on a happy stomach.

Whole-grain spaghetti. Nutritionally vacant but something to salivate over.

55 Married Oil drilling

I just figured that it stands to reason a raw substitute of a similarly cooked meal (and raw ones in and of themselves) would open another window of possibilities for people who might not have thought to try. Worth a mention. Out of curiosity, what was a typical meal for you and the time taken for it?

Early vicenarian.

When I had two slices of cake and potato chips one day. To a lesser extent, when I was 15 and realized hydrogenated oils were the equivalent of trans fat even though the nutrition label laws permitted the scumbags from omitting them from reflecting that in the numbers. Turns out all those Quaker's Oats bars were poison.

We'll truncate to pomegranate.

Pomegranate seeds laid across a bed of coriander and vanilla extract. Going to regret this right after posting.

Just came out of a coma. (Welcome back.)
