This. But I make my own and chuck some in a sandwich bag for on the go, is around a third of the price of shop bought and lets me play around with flavours. 44g of protein and 8g of fat (actually less because I trimmed it as well) from a 70g serving.

Ah but of course, why didn't that occur to me.... In all seriousness to the OP's post though, here is a link that lists a number of calorie dense foods: https://healthaliciousness.com/articles/highest-calorie-foods.php It might also help if you let people know what you have been eating so that they can give some more…

I think someone may have misinformed you as to what goes into a beef stroganoff :D

http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10332083/which-lifting-program-is-the-best-for-you/p1 Take a look through some of the programmes here, and choose one that you think you will be able to stick to. There are options for bodyweight exercises, limited equipment and full programmes.

http://www.occupationalhealth.co.uk/WeightConversion.htm problem is its working out 13.8 x 14 to give you 193.2, when it should be 13 x 14 + 8 = 190. On the plus side you're lighter than the most recent calculation says, however your original weight of 13 stone 10 lbs was 192lbs.

Well it's in success stories.....so congratulations, great job.

At a guess I'd say 1kg a week is too aggressive. If you've put that as your goal and mfp has given you a target of 1500 I assume you're close to a healthy weight already. Giving more information will allow other users to give more informed contributions. What are your height, current weight and goal weight. Also why have…

Take a look through the Success Stories, real proof from hundreds of MFP users that size and weight are not genetically predisposed. If it were true it would work the other way round as well, we'd be able to eat as much as we liked without putting on weight.

Reading between the lines I'd guess the OP meant they were eating maintenance calories defined by MFP at a sedentary rate, then exercising and not eating those calories back. They also said they don't always hit their calorie target due to work getting in the way.

Think you've got problems?.....I read that as bbq wings and came looking for a healthy recipe

Started c25k with the intention of doing park runs but then signed up to a charity 10k in November so have gone straight on to b210k, imagine I'll start doing the park runs once that's out of the way.

Libra is android

To give some perspective I'm on 2300 calories and still losing. I've moved gradually from 1800 and now that I only have 14lb to go have changed to 0.5lb loss per week. Admittedly my stats will be different to yours but what remains the same is that as long as you are eating below maintenance you will lose weight.

You can download the stronglifts 5x5 app, which is often recommended as a good place to start, and it will guide you through amount of weight and reps to do in each exercise which takes the work out of it for you. Not sure how little they have when you say the weights aren't extensive but pretty much all you need for the…

You can make beef, turkey or chicken jerky in the oven at a low temperature. Take a look at recipes online, as there are many out there, and choose one that suits your tastebuds. I found the best method was once the meat is sliced put 2 pieces on a toothpick and then hang them from the grills on the shelves.

To lose 1lb a week you need an approximate 3500 calorie deficit. If your calorie goal is 2000 and you've hit that every day except for you 3500 day then you've only gone over your goal by 1500 calories for the week or just over 200 calories per day average, this should still give you a 0.5lb loss once the water retention…

Firstly well done Secondly we've got an alchy beach here too but probably means something different

A 10 minute mile is pretty good if you're just starting out, but I would suggest trying to run further at a slower pace. Look at the c25k app I started it 6 weeks ago and skipped a few runs and am now a week into training for a 10k. You're already at a better point than I was when I started it (I could only manage 5…

Rugby. Your size will be an advantage and they sometimes do mixed touch rugby teams so you and your husband can both do it.

As weeks 4's runs are all the same I would suggest just repeating the run until you can complete it, take your 2 days rest and then try again. As the weeks progress and runs 1,2 and 3 start to differ is when I would suggest repeating the full week if you have difficulty completing it.

Mine seems to be changing. Initially it was weight loss. I'm currently 37lbs down with an initial goal of losing 55lbs but my goal has now changed to a fitness target as I have taken up running 6 weeks ago and am now starting to lift weights and have a charity 10k in November. I am sure that as the fitness aids the weight…

All takeaway pizza chains (dominoes, pizza hut, papa John's etc) have this effect on me. Pizza from a supermarket, a restaurant or homemade however is fine.

Have just recently completed it and now on b210k. Went from being out of breath after 1 minute of running to quite quickly finding it too easy and completed the 9 week program in 5 weeks skipping ahead now and then.

Work out in the evening

8333.2 + 32.4 = 8365.6

Thanks for the input. If it comes to it and I have to sacrifice one of the goals it would probably be fat loss at the moment, think I'm riding a high at the moment from completing the c25k when finding the motivation to exercise regularly has generally been my downfall. I think starting a lifting program while I have a…

I can take a 3 day hit if necessary, training program is only 6 weeks and have over 10 weeks til the run I'm going to do the running in the evening and lifting the following morning which should in theory give me 36 hours recovery before the next run, hopefully that's enough to not impact too much, so: Mon pm= run Tue…

A whole beagle? Don't think I could manage more than a pug :D

Don't beat yourself up for "going wrong", congratulate yourself that of the last month 75% was better than it used to be and you recognised you'd gone off track. I intended to have a cheat weekend before that turned into 3 months so you've done better than I did. But I've still lost 30lb since the beginning of the year and…

Also make sure you're recording the right scoop size, only realised last week that I have a large scoop which contains double the amount :|
