No. A calorie deficit makes you lose weight.

Have you looked into recomp? It might give you the look you want. Eating at maintenance and doing a progressive lifting program could be what you need to meet your goals. Good luck

When starting a keto diet it is usually suggested to increase sodium. How much sodium are you consuming?

I was interested in this a few years ago and did some research on it and talked to my doctor about it. He said it can cause problems if a person doesn't have a sensitivity. "If you’re determined to go gluten free, it’s important to know that it can set you up for some nutritional deficiencies. Fortified breads and cereals…

I'm also 4' 11 and the last weight was 143 before I stopped looking at the scale but I went up another pant size before I decided to lose weight, so I start close to where you are. You say you are not getting results like other people but we are smaller and have a smaller deficit, 1500 is sedentary maintenance so to lose…

This. Make long term changes that are sustainable. Good luck.

People "scoff" at that because it is very difficult to gain muscle mass when eating at a deficit especially for a female.

You really don't want to lose weight quickly because you will lose muscle mass and if you are going to join the marine corps you will want to keep the muscle you have. Protein can help you maintain muscle mass if you are at a reasonable deficit but it will not make you lose weight. Good luck

I tell people my type is the Pillsbury doughboy, lol

Food borne illness can begin quickly or take weeks to appear "Signs and symptoms may start within hours after eating the contaminated food, or they may begin days or even weeks later. Sickness caused by food poisoning generally lasts from a few hours to several days"…

If the chicken still had pinkish areas then it spent too much time in the danger zone 40°f-140° and the black area was the result of that. If you partially cook chicken you risk food borne illness even if you finish cooking the chicken later.

This is a great suggestion. I know people who fast and do this so they don't have their first meal when they are ravenous.

If you go to the goals section of mfp it will let you input your information. Yes you should try to eat as close to goal as possible. Undereating long term can cause many issues such as brittle hair and nails, lose of lean mass (muscle), hormonal changes(think testosterone and mood swings), bad skin, brittle teeth and…

You should be eating that and your exercise calories. So 1950+exercise calories=daily goal. Most people only eat half of the exercise calories they get because the exercise calories can be overestimated. My suggestion is eat 1950+50%exercise=goal. I eat all my exercise calories because I know my garmin is giving me correct…

What is the goal mfp gives you before exercise?

Do you have a treatment team helping with your eating disorder? You should discuss this with your doctor if you suspect metabolic damage and have them get you the help you need.

I found I could fit a lot in containers when I tried one of the portion controlled container diets.

I'm sorry they were so abusive to you and I hope you have a better relationship with food now. Good luck

I use caffeine before a workout.

I don't think she got the response she wanted but I hope she cab get help

What did you set your calorie and macro goals at? What is your current weight? Age? Height?

I have eaten too many and she is 100% right. Have you had the "eggs"?

Lima beans were my favorite food as a kid

I love coleslaw! Boiled peanuts, I love them and everyone where I live hates them.

I have always thought the idea of confusing the body this way or that you can trick the body was illogical. It's nice to know I'm not the only one.

The magic is that some people think they can eat more because they drink diet drinks and then blame the diet drink instead of taking responsibility for what they ate. The real magic is that other people will agree because it sounds good.

I have equipment in the garage and let the kids play in the yard or on rainy days just let them play in the garage, I'm lucky it's a big garage.

Did you ask why the trainer wanted you to track macros? Did the trainer give you a goal? What training/qualifications does this person hold to make the advice credible?

I hope your mother got medical treatment. Vision loss is a very serious issue and should never be ignored.
