It's so funny how ppl on MFP community think that just BC she may be off and that I recommend she cut her carbs automatically think I'm wrong...it has been PROVEN that it IS what you eat and not just how much....I have seen ppl eat 3 to 4 k cals a day and STILL drop weight like crazy...it is NOT always cals in cals…

Starvation mode IS a myth...your body will actually go into a fat burning mode because you have used all your stored glucose.Actually you burn the most fat while you are fasting... You body really only starts using your own muscle after 24 hours of fasting.Like I said before...if u are truly keeping your cals below you…

If you are really hungry and not loosing I think you need to start getting more leafy greens like spinach and kale into your diet and cutting back SLIGHTLY on carbs... People have different reactions to carbs even though there is low cal bread and other things the increase in carbs can stall ppl... Honestly I'm 6'3 285 and…

I actually have youtube red and now only listen to motivational speeches while I work out.,. It pumps me up more than regular music EVER did

Thanks...no it's not...I have tried Atkins,paleo and a ton of other and vegan actually has been easy to maintain for me.

No not at all...I'm doing whole foods plant based...it's just so many Vegan foods are low calorie that is why I have been able to keep my cals so low but trust me..I am STUFFED by the end of the day...a plant based diet keeps more more full than any kind of meat or fish protein has. I also eat a good amount of Portobello…

And to add to this....it is probably more than a 1k deficit...I have a Fitbit tracker and it says I burned roughly 3 to 3.5 k calories A DAY....Yes I move around that much plus my gym time and I don't even include this or sync my Fitbit to MFP because I believe that to be absolutely too high of a calorie burn for 1 day. A…

And actually...I need to drop to 220 to enlist into the air force academy so dropping muscle weight will actually help me achieve this faster.

I did say my GAINS right ? My bad...next time I need to be more specific for you guys....I did not say muscle mass.

Really ??? My bench has increased by 30 pounds...squat has increased by 50 and almost all other lifts have increased by 20 or more....please explain...

I don't..between a hour of lifting and a hour on the treadmill it comes out to be like 1500 cals burned in 1 day ...plus I walk and stand up to 8 hours a day at work so it tells me I burn like 3k a day or something...I keep my Cal intake below 2200 a day so there is no way this is accurate or I would be losing close to a…

Awesome tips guys ...thanks ..I need these recipes

I am..I went Vegan about a month and a half ago...I lost 45 pounds. I am actually a butcher/meat cutter and being around meat and chicken has turned me away...I do workout at least a hour a day...I usually do weights for 20 min and then stairmaster and treadmill...I have about a 1k deficit a day.Keep in mind that I am on…

That's awesome !! I am 6'3 285...I need to drop to 220 to enlist in the air force...it is good to know it can be done so fast ! I started at 327 so MFP has definitely helped me. Congratulations.

Awesome man..I'm 6'3 285 and I need to drop to 220 to enlist in the Air Force. What sort of calorie deficit did you try to aim for ? I was at 327 just a few months ago so I am losing at a decent rate but would love to get more advice/tips.
