Aight got it. Thanks !

Thanks guys. So does this mean my protein intake should be estimated at 195 x 0.72 = 144 grams ? The problem is if i eat more then 150 grams i start farting a lot ...

Ok. That's what I used to do when I did not lift and it worked perfectly. Now that I am lifting.. I feel like even trying to meet 2500 calories is a living hell. But that is my maintenance level. What do you usually do to suppress hunger ?

Yeh the only thing I am missing is calcium. Headache goes away if I hit 2800. Anyway thanks for the feedback man. I am going try to do another 2500 day and see how it goes.

Yeh. But i just started (1.5 weeks ) i do feel like i can push another additional 30 lbs on all of my lifts if i wanted to but the app guide told me to start smaller and add 5 lbs every workout.

Yeh. I completely agree that I need to eat 2500 for maintenance. It is torture tho. I could add variaty to my diet. but i dont hate the food i eat. i actually love it very much !

Ok. this sounds like a serious commitment. I worry that my lifting progress might take an unwanted break. if I decide to switch.

How does one measure if the weight training is intense or not?

Yes, i use MFP to track my macros: in fact if you click on my name you should be able to see my food diary. I forgot to mention but since I walk to the gym my daily Fitbit steps are at 10000+. I used TDEE calc and the total calorie that was given to me to lose weight was under 2500... that why I got worried that i am…

I got the calorie amount from reading the guid from the strong lifts app. It made sense to me because if I eat 2800 calories I feel fine at the end of the day. But if I eat less then 2500 I feel like crap. I also eat crap ton of veggies .

Feel free to add me. would love active ppl. to motivate each other

I have been stuck at 178 for several weeks, my food logging is done by using a food scale and MFP. I stay away from food that is hard to calculate or if I need to estimate it. Basically if it does not have a barcode and nutrition fact I do not use it, only exception is avocadoes, apples and bananas which I food scale em…

if it is the polar with HR monitor then I would go with polar.

I see thank you!

thanks for the response. so can Endomondo get the data from google fit and transfer the calories burned to My fitness pal? if not than do you know any app that would do it ?

Please add me to friends!
