If you generally eat the same veggies you could just make a meal on mfp for it. Then just re-use it. If your just going low calorie then it might not make a difference. If your going low carb I suggest tracking it because the do add up.

Sure, and they got that way by eating excessive amounts of broccoli.

I know people that smoke a pack of cigarettes every day and lived well passed their hundreds. What's your point? You have good genes? Diabetes is an epidemic right now, I mean it's good for you that you don't have problem with sugar. But what's the harm in suggesting someone eat less of it?

Dude I said it like every time I replied to you. I was responding to the " no need to watch sugar and bread" comment made by another person. You keep ignoring that. Op was vague in what she ate so I made a suggestion. I never said that's what she had to do. You seem to be projecting. Also there's a history behind calories…

Ok buddy you win I need to get back to my workout

As far as processed sugar I did eliminate it. Can't really do anything about the natural sugar in nuts and veggies.

Doesn't matter if it's cake, pizza, or ice cream. I think I already said I was responding to the you don't need to watch your sugar and bread intake. And take a minute to think about what your arguing. Your arguing against cutting back on sugar and eating cleaner. You can get thinner eating junk but that does not mean your…

Veggies(green leafy non starchy) , meats, fish, nuts, cheese. I don't eat sugar at all. Cook most of my food. I did it for over a year with no issues. First month was like that detox scene from Ray (2004) with Jamie Foxx. Like I said though she doesn't have to do it like I did. Just cut back a little on the sweets and see…

She said she was eating whatever and was wondering why she wasn't losing weight. I never said this is why, it was just a suggestion. Why do people get so defensive? I was responding to the person that said there's no need to watch your sugar and bread intake. All I said was try reducing sugar and bread. Use those calories…

That was just the last video I saw on it, there are many more sources. The OP can do whatever she wants, I going from my personal experience eating whatever you want and staying under calories will lead to malnourishment. You can either eat a chicken salad or a slice of cake, if you honestly think you're body will get what…

Didn't say to cut them out completely I said to cut down on them. Sugar does a crazy amount of damage to your body. You have too much and you end up with type 2 diabetes. Doctors say your not suppose to go over a certain amount of sugar in a day. And guess what if you have one can of soda you've already gone over the daily…

I usually eat a little more on days I workout heavy.

Technically it's calories in calories out you should be ok in the long run. But I find I get better results if I manage my macros. For example I need to maintain my muscle mass so I can't go under a certain amount of protein so I have to eat eggs, meats, nuts. I don't want to trigger an insulin spike so I don't go over a…

Just carbs and sugar, I can eat as much cheese as I want ;p

That's way too low, I was there before. It works until it stops then you get frustrated eat normally and it all rushes back. You need to go on one of those weight loss calculators put in your stats and set a deficit of like 500-800 calories. You'll probably be closer to 2500 calories. I use to be 350 and did a lot of…

Cut that crap out man. That weight comes back super fast. Find out what your maintenance is and try to stick to that. Have a cheat day once a week and just hit the gym like crazy that day.

I can't control myself around carbs(or at least I use to be like that). I would buy 2 tubs of ice cream bogo and finish them off by the next day. I could down a large special pizza, a cheese steak, buffalo wings, and a Coke no problem. It was really bad. I switched to eating low carb(paleo at first then keto). Paleo was…

It's weird that your doc said to eat less. On keto it's important to stay low on carbs but some people don't know that fat/protein ratio has to be right too. You want to be at 65% fat 25-30% protein 5-10% carbs. You also have to have a certain amount of potassium and magnesium(which is why I eat lots of spinach). And if…

Weight loss is the same anyway since you took your original weight on the old scale. It's no big deal

Yeah that initial 5 is just water, stalls are normal just keep at it and you'll lose the weight. Almond flour is a must if you want to do Keto pancakes or cookies. I recommend erythritol as a sweetener. There's even a keto pizza that makes the crust with Parmesan, almond flour, cream cheese, and eggs. It's super easy to…

I'm doing keto! I'm 2 weeks in, lost over 10lbs. Not my first time doing it, I convinced myself I needed to do a bulk to gain some strength back 50lbs later... yeah not doing that again:P

Well fed, I'm not doing paleo at the moment but when I was I used this. Foods so good!

That's how many calories you burn even if inactive. If you walk around a lot or exercise daily what you burn is gonna be higher. So TDEE is kind of a moving target, if you do workout make sure you eat back some of the calories.

That happens to everyone, I got a trick for that though. Throw out all your loose clothing. One day you'll go for those nice jeans you got when you dropped a pant size and they won't fit. That's the big wake up call that gets me back on track. At my biggest I wore size 48" jeans, now 36 is normal/lose. I keep 38"s just in…

Few things you should watch out for. On keto you urinate a lot and you don't hold on to salt as much. You have to replace it and also get enough magnesium and potassium or you may cramp up. You don't have to go crazy with the salt just put I pinch in if somethings bland. Spinach has a lot of magnesium so a serving should…

I'm on it, I'm getting great results. I actually did it before for a year and I got the leanest I've ever been in my life. Fats aren't as bad for you as you think, the whole notion of low fat high carb is based on bad science, why do you think obesity is an epidemic now. That wasn't the case before the west switched to low…
