When I over eat. Stuff myself silly. I wake up in the morning and I feel very hungry. Whereas normal days I don't.

I'm not undereating though? In the last 4 weeks I've lost under 2lb a week on average. It's just a case of the whole 8 weeks it averages to 3lbs.

On the 14th of February I weighed in at 13st12 I was yoyoing between 13.12 and 13.10 until around the 7th of March and I weighed in at 13st5. But this was only a few days after my period. So in the last 4 weeks I have lost 7lbs max.

And eat only 25-50% exercise calories. I was told that MFP and fitbit calories aren't just exercise calories hence why I'm not eating 600 more calories each day. And I always thought if you are FAT likke me you lose a lot of weight in the beginning and then in slows right down?

I really don't understand how I am undereatting. I eat 1200kcal to 1900kcal a day, depending on the exercise. If Im sat on my *kitten* all day I tend to have around 1200 cos I'm just not that hungry, but if I have worked or exercised it's usually between 1500-1900kcal. On my "good days" I don't feel hungry and when I do I…

Like I said it's averaged out. Some weeks I lose nothing other weeks like the week I came off of my period I lost nearly 6lbs. I know this isn't all fat. So I don't think you should be concerned. I only started January the 17th and to my understanding you lose a lot when you first start due to water retention. I started at…

Right okay. Thanks alot

Why isn't MFP number just from exercise though? My fitbit will tell me how many calories I have burnt throughout that day as a whole and MFP seems to have a lower number which just seems to be the calories from the exercise logged on my fitbit?

Thanks everyone. I've started C25K And did the first session today! I must say I have been enjoying it and feel my best when I've completed it although I'm knackered I feel very proud as really didn't think I could even start it 😂

I'm not going to lie I also like playing with it 😂 it's good as well cos if I stand to the side in the mirror I can pull it to the side somewhat, put my arm down the side and I can see what I'd look like when I get to my goal weight. Very motivating! Haha!

I do have loose skin but the fat I'm talking about feels very different. I know this sounds gross but it feels like a bean bag. You can feel each "bean" it is gross 😂😂

Glad I'm not going mad! Ha! But thanks that's actually really interesting! I didn't know fat cells filled up with water.

And I get this but its just hard drilling it into yourself to turn it into a positive. I suppose just like water weight your hormones fluctuate, one day your proud of yourself the next day you feel like giving up. No rime or reason to it. Think I've answered my own question. Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to…

I know this but it doesn't help the feeling of self loathing...

Feel free to add me. Most my friends are inactive ☺️

I think I will start with eat 25 % because I've been doing pretty well weight wise and have dropped a good few lbs. Thanks for the help guys

It does yea. Out of all that I've only been in 69 zone minutes, but I am asking cos I'm starving and my kcals are 1300 for the day. Thank you.

Thank you everyone. You've all made me feel better about giving it ago. It's been on my mind for weeks now and I just haven't had it in me to put my shoes on and go! Thank you

I added to this group ages ago but I want to stop the notifications how do I do this?

Thank you. It is such a drain and you do feel a little knocked back. Thank you though you've made me feel better.

The NHS promotes eating 5 fruit and veg a day and encourages different types as it is better nutritionally as you're getting different nutrients. So just wondered if a pepper is a pepper or the they have different nutrients in the different colours.

Yea it tells me the amounts I should put put in. The portion is only 1 portion. I just can't imagine something being 795kcal before you put your ingredients in. Especially as it's a 1 person meal kit.

Thanks guys

I drink over 2litres a day and I eat a lot of veg. I start my day with a veg smoothie everyday. Maybe it's a mind overy matter thing. It is so frustrating!!

So if you take raw weighing does this also count for pasta and rice??

Halloumi is amazing isn't it!! I had it last night with a golden vegatable rice and a chicken breast cooked in a peri peri sauce! I also dipped the halloumi in a peri sauce as well. Goes really well with the salty taste!

Thank you 😊

My net will be well above 1000, and more than likely be between 1600 and 1800, I was just using examples, Sorry I should of put that in the first place lol

It's just the round numbers helped it in my head if you get me lol!

No no no don't worry, I'm not planning on doing 800 kcal workouts, I don't want to be 1000kcal daily, I was just trying to workout in head if a workout that burned x amount of calories wold be the same as not eating x amount of kcal. Just thought it'd be easier to explain that way. Atm I'll be eating at 1800 and to be…
