your weakly supposed requirement to lose weight is 7*1200=8400 calories. you eat 800 calories for 6 days so that's 4800 calories 8400 calories - 4800 calories = 3600 calories on your "splurge" day

If someone was experiencing pain in knees and shins after walking at similar weight as my current weight, can you point out at what weight did you stop getting the pain ? When I was 250 I thought that I needed to lose 20 lbs to get this issue resolved, but unfortunately it did not

The doctor I saw is not an orthopedic surgeon. How did you get your ACL torn if I may ask ? Thanks for the advice.

Thank you for sharing your experience.

yes I was a couch potato, that's why I started slow walking instead of running or jogging.

Sure I'll take a break . I have been waiting for this week since I started my weight loss lol

What you say about not noticing any changes in the mirror and not getting any comments recently about my weight makes sense, but what about wearing the same size of pants ? is it normal to lose about 20 lbs and still wear the same size?

Thank you for sharing your experience. Wish you the best.

I am not sure why did you guys assume that I am going to stop losing weight because of my fear of having loose skin. Of course I am going to be sad if I ended up having loose skin, I am pretty sure no one in the world loves his/her loose skin. I am not going to stop , but I hope that at the end of this process I won't end…

Thank you for your kind words :smile:

:neutral:

I was specifically talking about the picture on the LEFT and not the person in general.

@HellYeahItsKriss I think I have some of the wrinkled skin you are talking about on the inside of my thighs, but I had them even before I started losing weight. Thanks for sharing your story and congratulations on your weight loss success.

The poster of the comment is not the same person in the thread the OP referred me to( it is even in another forum)

Woo

I would be heartbroken If I ended up looking like the picture on the left in post 12 . I hope you are wrong :smile:

so you don't use your internal body fat stores for energy and thus faster weight loss while being on Keto ? I always read this information on keto blogs and sites but I was not sure if it is correct or not.

I know that genetics determine if I am going to have loose skin or not, but that's not my question. People who are genetically programmed to have loose skin will at some point after losing certain % of body fat know that they are going to have loose skin, right ? I am asking about that point. I don't believe that loose…

I did not to be honest. Thanks for sharing though :smile:

so I can't do any predictions before I reach my goal ?

I feel much better when I recently started eating whatever I want (after asking this question here and getting the answer "yes") . I am still losing weight at the same rate.

I guess it is similar to the right one or even a bit larger.

Thanks everyone for the new information.

I use t-fal cookware.. but I am not sure if it is no-stick pan. mmmm measuring spoon ? I have no idea that they exist. I use the spoon that I eat rice with.. similar to this one isn't that a tbsp?

I don't use any sprays, I just use oil to fry with. If I use less than that , eggs get sticky. I tried 2 spoons and the eggs got sticky and burnt. 3 spoons did the job.

I don't think that everything he says is wrong. I think he exaggerates some concepts to promote his book.

Nope, I don't even know what a skinny fat is. I did flag the useless comment though.

what a useless comment.

Thanks everybody for sharing information, tips and experiences I am not currently depressed. I don't think I qualify for being depressed. But I used to laugh more and enjoy silly things and activities( for example playing paper scissors rock with my nephew !). But maybe I feel sad. I don't feel tired or deprived from…

so after all binge eating was not just a habit and it really made me happy ! hmm! Thanks for sharing. The article was interesting to read.
