Open diary here, feel free to add me :)

I have a 'non tracking day' at the end of each month and a day each week where i reach my maintenance calories or just under. the majority of the time though I'm always under my calories and enjoy the food that I like but as smaller portions.

If I remember correctly Alcohol calories are the equivelant to fat calories, so is a pretty high dense calorie wise especially since they are empty calories too. I would perhaps put the booze on the back burner whilst trying to lose fat and perhaps have 1 or two small glasses of win a week instead. I think the claims you…

Awesome job dude, keep up the great work! :)

If you are tracking Correctly & Accurately, then you should of lost atleast 1 pound during the month. Seems to me you are either a) not tracking properly. b) Your calorie target isn't correct. c) You have a medical condtion. Hell I've been eating pizza, burgers, rice, potatoes, crisps, chips and not exercising and I've…

Short term. Yes. Long Term? No.

I weigh in every day, in the morning and at night and do body measurements at the end of each month. :)

Nay from me. I tried for around 2 weeks but I found it unpractical and boring. I love my bananas, oranges, apples, rice, potatoes etc...I would rather change my lifestyle than drop LOTS of weight and look skinny fat by the end of the 'diet'. Also just the simplicity of counting calories is awesome and i get to eat pizza,…

Welcome back :)

Whats your age, height, activity level and weight? Have you seen a Doctor and they've given the OK for you to start a new lifestyle? Are you exercising? Answer these and we may be able to help you better. :)

Always good to have goals for yourself, good luck! :)

YouTube. But I spent a while weeding out the crap and just generally doing thorough research. At the end of the day though after years of research and studying I can honestly tell you the one thing I've learnt that works is...CICO, calories in calories out. Plain and simple, yet hard to do and maintain. Once you sort out…

I don't do Keto but I have 80+ pounds to lose :) (well 60 now since I've lost like 20 already lol :D ) so feel free to add me.

I'm 27 and need to lose 80-90 pounds too ^^ I'm active everyday if you wanna add me! :)

To start off with, just focus on staying under your calories and disregard exercise calories for the time being. Focus on your relationship with food and keep it SIMPLE. The less you have to worry about the easier it is to make good food choices. Once you have a grip on what you are eating THEN start looking into eating…

Yarp water weight, after the first 14 or so days expect lower numbers and a steadier fat loss if you are counting correctly :)

Fantastic job buddy, I'm definitely noticing a difference in my anxiety and depression too even though I've only lost 19 pounds so far. Keep up the great work! :smiley: I'll add you in a second! Also if anyone else reads this feel free to add me :)

Welcome to MFP and all the best in your endeavors! :)

To be honest it varies everyday, so I don't have a "meal plan" per se I just make sure I stick under my calories each day :) I'll open my diary to the public and you can view all my days the past month or so. Just click on my profile and view diary from there if you don't know how to :)

Wow awesome job! I'm hoping to reach my goal by the end of this year but if it comes sooner like yours then I won't complain haha :p

The best way to do things with a new lifestyle is to not deprive yourself of things, that's the way I've been doing it now and im enjoying my food and life :) Last week I really fancied a pizza, I said to myself If i still crave it tomorrow then I will allocate enough calories and fit the pizza in. I did get the pizza in…

I got bullied a few times due to my weight, but after the third time of getting called names by a few people I challenged them on it, one person pushed me so i fought back ended up winning the fight because in theory i was larger lol so hit a lot harder :p . After my second fight, no one ever messed with me again...bullies…

I'm always looking for active friends, feel free to add me you awesome bunch of people! :smiley:

This, expect this thread to be closed down soon.

Dry, don't forget it expands quite a lot.

I eat between 200-300 grams a day and I'm losing 2-3 pounds a week.

Nope, I don't feel like this anymore. Once you realise you can eat whatever you like but smaller portions, within your allocated calories and still lose fat...it's pretty freeing! :) Just make sure you track as accurately as possible and eat the foods you want and you'll be fine :)

Howdy!

Welcome to MFP and great job on your current progress! :)

No luck involved my friend! :) I'm using this way of eating now and it's working a charm! I do 16/8 but sometimes do longer 18-21 hours fasting if im busy or not hungry. If you like big meals and are/or busy throughout the day, IF is a great tool...also pretty healthy if you do it right. Just remember to still stick to…
