  • I want to lose weight. I did lose then ended up binging and putting on some of it. Overall ive still lost. I guess the point of the thread is just that following mfp's calorie estimate hasn't worked properly for me so in future I'll have to make my own adjustments. It was only set at .5 pounds a week so not exactly a crash…
  • A running buddy did mention that I was getting too thin but I want to get to 10 stone. The faster running is the worst for making you feel hungry. Like you say you put all that effort into a 3 mile run and it's a small amount of calories. If you jog that distance really slowly it feels a lot easier.
  • Yeah, I always eat 95-100% of calories burned. I even add on an hour or two of walking calories if I feel I've done more in my job than the sedentary setting. I'll just have to watch out for the increased hunger signs this time and eat more if I start feeling that way again.
  • 2500, more if I run further than my usual 7 miles a day. I'd hate being restricted to the amounts listed here. Sounds miserable. The extra 800 calories I get from running allow me to eat decent amounts of the good stuff... chocolate, crisps, cheese, burgers... I ran 10 miles on sunday... had a feast yet still in a deficit…
