Don't sweat it.. Track your calories.. Don't be in too much of a deficit!

Great thread.. The amount of people that say you don't have to watch what you eat! Haha really, tell that to me when I was 236lbs

I feel like it took a while to actually see the difference.. But once I got leaning, the differences were noticeable almost every few days! The battle is feeling that your making progress when you can't see it. But that just comes down to trusting the process!

Short term goal here.. 39 days to drop to 9/10% BF for my holiday to Florida

Moderation, don't kick you self to hard for the odd sweet here or there!

2 Turkey burgers in baps with onions and ketchup.. Followed by Ice Cream!! :-)

I use to weigh in every couple of days! But now hardly ever, I use the mirror for tracking my progress and that's about it.

I eat what ever I feel like eating as long as it's within my macro range!

77, that's awesome! Great job!

Happily drink diet soda if i want it!

I use to take them all the time, when I was getting really some times every couple of days. But right now I take them every 4 weeks

Where can I collect that prize?

No, thats not what I was saying. What I meant was when I started, I went down the route of eating fruit, veg and lean proteins but not tracking. I hit a wall and fat loss basically stopped, and someone said to me work out your calories, I was having around 1400/1500cals a day. Which is extremely low for a 230 plus pound…

Your Metabolic damage description was basically how I started dieting.

I'm ok with that, I'm here to learn like everyone. And Thank you.

Not at all, I'm proud of my transformation. And happy to have it as my profile picture as a lot of people do. We are are all learners. Trying to be credible? I would prefer to become more knowledgeable!

Can you share why no? do you mean metabolic damage doesn't exist?

Why no? I'm interested in your views?

by causing metabolic damage?

Interested, and entitled to my own opinion like everyone ;)

You can still hit wall on a calorie deficit, where you would stop losing weight?
