BMI 26.5, Overweight BMI is not perfect but estimate that works unless you are a pro weight lifter, etc.

I read once to do leg work on your run days so you can rest legs for a day

Run/walk/bicycle/rollerskate outside Jump rope Any kind of jumping/plyometrics/burpees/mountain climbers Do sprint intervals on the treadmill, really helps break up the monotony.

Age: 26, Ht: 5'5" HW: ~137ish, guessing because I hate to weigh when I know I've been eating CW: 129 LW: 125 GW: 125 UGW: <120, and evaluate my health at that point... lose more or maintain.

Whatever works for you. If you log for a month and are continually under your caloric goal without trying you may try cutting back on logging but continue to weigh in to look for any signs of weight gain.

Here or there is cool, just don't make it a habit

Great post, I didn't realize foods with as many as 5 cals per serving can show up as 0.

I would focus on making 1 change in your diet routine per week, until that change is a permanent lifestyle change. For instance, if dinner is a problem area, plan your dinners for the week and have them prepped for when you get home. Then the next week, if snacking is a problem, come up with some healthy snack alternatives…

Unless you ate over 7000 calories it is not fat. Drink a lot of water. Excess carbs and salt cause temporary water gain.

Height: 5'5" CW: 129 lbs 1st GW: <125 2nd GW: <120 UGW: Whatever helps me run my best, it may be around a BMI of 18 which equals 111 lbs. As an adult I have never been under 125 so I need to be very focused on diet, I feel.

It would depend how active you are all day. For example, I have a desk job, so I put "sedentary" and add exercise separately, usually 400-500 per day. If you put a "higher" TDEE you may already be including the exercises you do.

Do both! I do not think a modest amount of running will impede your muscle growth. And running is the biggest calorie burner around (and lots of fun)!
