That's not actually a lot of fudge you know. They are very high calorie. Haha

She doesn't ask you to eat all the desserts at once, does she? Or taunt you when you say your watching how much you eat?

No I don't. Because I would take them out and eat them before they are properly frozen.

Yes he was aware of it. He doesn't take me seriously when I mention it. Which is why he laughed at me (not in a nice way) when I said I want to lose weight.

Yeah I know. Doesn't the body burn off the "extra" nutrients during exercise anyway though? That's kind of what I'm asking, obviously that low is not enough calories, but how is it then that you get extra nutrients? So for example, she could be spot on with nutrients, but still starving her body because of too little…

Mm. I wish that was an option. But from past experience, I'm better off just giving it all away at once. Because one bag will lead to another, and another, and another. And before I know it, its gone. That's just me. It bothers me until its not there anymore. When I buy cookies I usually buy those little packs of 4. That…

Haha nice trick.

You know the sweets wasn't that bad, but the part that angered me the most, was him laughing in my face when I said I'm trying to lose weight.

If I didn't live overseas, I probably would.

Not sure to be honest. As I said I normally don't buy so much sweets. I just buy one, eat it, and then its done.

I know! I love homemade cookies too but that's a bit much.

I'm thinking perhaps I should give them away secretly.

I don't have that kind of self control. When I buy treats I usually go out to buy them, and I only buy one single serve.

Haha. Okay. Had a feeling I understood that wrong.

So, she can still get in a good amount of nutrition even if she's severely undereating?

Water fast for 7 days.

He also told me I will start cursing him after the first week, which I have not. :wink:

All this math is making my head hurt...

I am very impatient with it. Not too impatient to do something stupid and eat 800. Its just because I didn't expect him telling me I need to lose weight. I thought I could just bulk right of the bat. So, I kind of want to get past it as quickly as I can while still being healthy so I can just get going with my goals…

Yeah I know MFP calculates NEAT. I meant to type that but couldn't edit with this phone. I use a TDEE method of eating though. And I still don't think its that high. Its not exactly a pound I lose each week. Slightly less. I just typed a pound so I don't have to try and remember the decimals. Again, if it really was 2000,…

My cheat day is on Sunday. Its the day where I eat at maintenance. And have dessert after dinner. That's it. Nothing fancy or over complicated. A cheat day for me is more about what I eat than how much. I still eat a reasonable amount, just, maybe not so reasonable food choices.

I hate typing on this phone.

Actually MFP calculated my TDEE as 1670. Because I am sedentary. I walk less than 5000 steps a day if I don't exercise. I also eat back my exercise calories. I only walk for cardio an hour each day, and do weights 3 times a week for an 45min (not counting rest). So my burns are about 140-200 (margin of error included)…

I'm not sure if caffeine actually has any effect on me. I sometimes drink coffee before bed and then I sleep quite soundly. So, not sure how and if it will help my workout.

Say 1 serving. If the calories seem a lot after adding all the ingredients, then change it to 2 servings, and drink only half the smoothie next time. Its really just your own recipe so. Your serving is about the portion of the recipe you plan on eating/drinking.

So, it DOESN'T help me lift heavier ?? Darnit. Haha

I know.

Thanks a bunch. :smile:

Sigh. I hate typÍng on a phone. Sorry for all the weird double posts and stuff.

Thanks for the sticky reminder. I did read them all. However, you should also consider this: MFP set my goal to 1370 when I stated I wanted to lose 1 pound a week. I am eating 1200 about, which is only 170 calories less than that goal, and losing, as MFP predicted, 1 pound a week. So I don't think my logging is too bad.
