  • Going from 22% to 15% shouldn't be too difficult (as compared to getting to extremely low bf %s i mean). in fact, even just living your daily life while at a calorie deficit, should almost completely achieve that with minimal lean mass loss. But to speed up the body fat % drop (not all weight loss, but by gaining a little…
  • Non fat greek yogurt (plain you could have like 4 grams of carbs, with 12 grams of protein), flavoured I think would be up to 8grams carbs and 8 grams protein. Chicken breast is generally cheap any/every where, so try get that? or turkey mince / ground turkey, a bit boring, but since its not so popular its generally…
  • Its difficult really. Cause even the lowest calorie alcohol (vodka, gin, etc, that tamara mentioned) are super high in calories. A bottle of vodka is i think over 1500 calories, which just sucks. I guess most people wouldn't drink that much in a normal night out, but still 4-6 shots (or drinks mixed in with no calorie…

  • There's already been a few scientists or nutritionists or whatever that did that just to prove that its based on calories. They went a month or two drinking coke and eating twinkies and other junk food only, and 0 real/healthy food. And they lost weight perfectly fine. But weight loss. Fat loss. And health, are 3 different…
  • Coffee is safe and healthy / good for you providing you're an adult in relatively decent health. up to 400mg caffeine / day has been proven time and time again to have no bad or adverse health effects over a life time. For children / teenagers, caffeine isn't really recommended or at least a lower dose and used less…

  • It blocks 1/3rd of the fat you eat from being absorbed. So it comes out the other end - hence the oil/grease, that also destroys the toilet, since water doesn't work well on getting removing oil/grease. Its useless really. At best, it'll deter you from eating fatty foods. Either you'll eat less of them when they're in…
  • I'm in again! I got lazy as January went on, especially the last week, so hopefully this month I can at least keep a decent weekly average. :smile: I may not post daily, but i'll update it every few days at the least, with every day of walking. For January I did Total steps, steps outside of work (since i'm on my feet all…

  • Some diet sodas usually do have a couple calories, depending on what kind (diet coke / coke zero, 7up free, sprite zero, diet club orange, no cal versions of energy drinks such as monster/red bull), but very few. Its still something to keep an eye out on. As 15 calories per serving (and most 500ml bottles are "2 servings",…

  • Ah, ok thanks. but it was just one example. I'm pretty sure most single/raw ingredients like that have high variability. Is there really any difference? Or are they all just the exact same, and false labels? Regards to oat bran then for example again, does that mean all the different producers/brands go test their specific…

  • Again I forgot to put up Sunday's details. It was raining for some of the day. And I was really lazy. NOt only did I stuff myself with junk food, but I got pretty much no steps in either. :( Will put in today's steps, later on tonight when i'm finished. i'm going out again in a few mins. 04/Jan: Total Steps:…
  • I forgot to update my steps on here yesterday lol. Also I forgot to keep an eye on my steps at all today, so can't distinguish my non-work steps. >_< Now will be the first time i've checked my phone's pedometer all day! Its been raining today and yesterday though, so my steps outside of work are down quite a bit. Tomorrow…
  • It was raining again today. So I didn't walk to work. Did walk home though. Walked to the gym tonight. Ran home from the gym, ran to the shop and ran home from the shop too. Also did about 7 mins or so of moderate+ intensity of cycling at the end of my gym session (not tracked though). Hopefully (fingers crossed :blush: )…

  • I also do bits of running throughout the day, sometimes up the 6 flights of stairs in work. Other times just short bursts of it while walking, and sometimes for a mile or two on the treadmill at the gym. (I don't carry my phone on the treadmill at the gym, so for today's steps, there's about a mile of running left out of…
  • I have a fairly active job, so i'll try and put down total steps, and estimated steps outside of work hours too. Also takes about 3300 steps to walk to work, and walk home too. So that's 6600 steps for nothing more than commuting, if the weather is at least not raining (cold and wind is fine with me to walk to work lol)…
  • in. Just to track total steps with rough distance equivalent.
  • The story was pretty long as it was, so I just left out alot more side things, that i'll try mention quickly. 1. While its a long story and takes a while to read, the conversation with the nurse, and the time I spent thinking about it and all that, was pretty short. 5 mins conversation. 5-10 mins thinking to myself. I…
  • Sidenote: you'd be surprised what a large filling breakfast can do for oyu during a day. 600-700 calories, I had this high complex carb, protein, and fat pancake (egg, protein powder, almond flakes, oatbran, milled flax seeds) for that amount of claories. Had it at like 7am. Didn't feel hungry (even while working for 9…
  • I did 1200 calories / day for 2 months, along with going to the gym 10 times / week (twice / day for 5 days, cardio for 7 of those times). until I burnt myself out after a period of time. 1200 calories is easy. 3x 400 calorie meals. And if you're only eating lean meats and veggies. Then its even easier. Chicken. 300 grams…
  • Your hunger isn't what prevents you from reaching your goals. Its lack of self-control to not eat. Lack of self-motivation to keep not eating when you've hit your daily limits. Eat more protein/fats/fiber, to fill you up and for longer. Re-evaluate your daily calorie limit. Space out what you eat, and time it for periods…
  • Eat meat? how is that hard? 1 chicken breast fillet, (around 150grams) is like 160-170 calories and 40g protein. If you ate 2 of those chicken breast fillets with any dinner, thats like 80% of your protein right there. Beef. Or any meat at all really. Leaner beef is more protein with less calories and fat, per gram of…
