Most apps will give you a macro goal based on a range (e.g.: 10-30% carbs, 40-50% protein, 30-40% fat). What you choose is up to you and your preferences. Folks who follow keto will have a lower carb ratio than folks who don't. Weight lifters need more protein than sedentary folks, so it's not a one size fits all. Go with…

Tear muscle when you workout. Feed muscle when you eat. Build muscle when you rest.

my sister wants to lose weight fast so she goes super restrictive, follows any fad (cayenne pepper, cold potatoes, cabbage soup) burns out, goes back to normal - still obese. a friend of mine spends a fortune on jenny craig - learns nothing about how to eat, then left to her own devices, goes back to normal - still obese.…

I most likely will. It's become such a habit now that I don't think twice about it. I also like the certainty of it. I don't have to wait until i've gained five pounds to realize i've been over eating, if i track there's never any doubt. It's just become something else i monitor - how much money is in the bank, how much…

I feel like you're cheating yourself. The mark up is big enough that products can be sold at a significant discount and corporations still rake in a huge profit. They're the ones cheating you - if they weren't, they wouldn't be selling you a pair of shoes that cost $10 to make for over $100.

your body needs fuel to heal - if it's not getting enough fuel, it will take longer to heal. eat at maintenance and you'll likely recover sooner

We all love food...that's how we all got fat. :) You can still love food and lose weight. When your mind tells you a bag of chips would be good, have chips. Have one serving of chips. Then tell yourself "the rest will still be there tomorrow." The great thing about counting calories is that you can eat whatever you want -…

That's a myth. If you're ok with 1200 - keep eating 1200. Your weight fluctuates daily and is affected by a lot of things: stress, hydration, sleep, sodium, ovulating, etc. Look for trends, not just a one day blip.

If you're at a plateau, you need to eat less.

Losing more weight will make the skin worse, not better. The reason it's loose it because it used to be filled with fat and you've "deflated" - deflating even more will just make it worse. Lift more and try to come to terms with the fact that it might not get better unless you opt for surgery. Assuming the pic is you - you…

gluten = bread, pasta etc. = high calorie lactose = milk, cheese, ice cream etc. = high calorie eliminating two high calorie food groups = fewer calories ingested = weight loss.

No. They still can't decided if eggs are good for us so i'm not going to trust lab grown meat only to find out five years from now that it's the reason i've grown a tail and udders.

I'm cheap - WW charges you a fee to count points. MFP doesn't charge anything to count calories. Counting is counting so i'd rather count for free. Plus, when i go to restaurants they have their calories on their menus, not the points values. When i look at food packaging it's the same. Why work to convert calories into…

Low carb isn't helping you lose weight, a calorie deficit is. If you don't want to eat low carb - don't. I lost 143 pounds in 11 months eating carbs with every meal. Don't do anything to lose weight you're not willing to do forever. So if you don't expect to be low carb forever, don't be low carb now. Time spent losing…

Losing weight often sounds scarier than it is. A lot of people think of what they're going to miss out on but that's because they're looking at weight loss as a thing you do until you can get back to normal. It doesn't have to be hard. I'm going to hit you with a bunch of cliches that really helped me (for context: 5'6",…

Veggie stir fry....but also, planning ahead. Plan your meals when you can so you don't run into this issue.

i used this calculator http://www.health-calc.com/diet/energy-expenditure-advanced when i transitioned to maintenance and it helped a lot. i still had to tweak the numbers but the results i got from this calculator were the closest to my actual maintenance calories than any other calculator. give thought to the intensity…

Not losing weight to avoid loose skin is like not having life saving heart surgery to avoid a scar. This is your health. Your life. Lose the weight. You'll probably have some loose skin, but it won't be terrible. Stay hydrated, moisturize, do strength training while losing and you can (theoretically) minimize the amount of…

I lost another 7 pounds until i figured out the right maintenance number for me

I haven't stopped eating anything. I eat what i want....just maybe not as much as i want. I used to eat a big bowl (probably 2-3 servings) of Count Chocula - if i want it now, i have it....but just one serving. Since it's not very filling, i treat it as a snack...not a meal.

Daily, around 10:00 a.m....and since i started adding chia seeds to my diet...they're glorious. Like, if my poops were a person, she'd have a firm handshake and you'd believe her when she told you she'd work hard to get you the best mortgage rate she could.

Here's the great thing...you don't have to explain yourself. Smile and nod.

I workout at home. I like to workout first thing in the morning and the thought of putting on winter boots, winter coat, hat etc. and leaving my house at 6:00 a.m. in the dark and cold and rain and snow to go to the gym fills me with "one more snooze" thoughts. I know i won't go. I bought the equipment i need for home…

Leftovers. Always leftovers. I cook enough for four and then when it's done, i plate two portions and divvy the other two into tupperware. Lunch for the next day. Sometimes i make big dishes that serve 8-10 and put those in the freezer, then we have variety
