Ok, what I meant is he didn't set out to lose weight, etc. But to not eat the king's meat (perhaps it was against dietary law, perhaps it was meat sacrificed to foreign gods). Their improved features could be from the food directly, or more probable, obedience to God. Another example of this is surviving the Lions den. It…

@RaeBeeBaby your tdee accounts for exercise, so you don't eat any additional calories. Eating exercise calories is when using mfp's method. To the op, every one has covered it. Patience. Weigh food. Track accurately. If you weigh daily use a trend app.

+1 exactly what I was thinking

What about some basic push-ups, body weight squats, etc? As for the Crock-Pot. Good job! I'm not very creative. Maybe some chicken breasts with taco seasoning. Either some taco salad, or use a tortilla to make a wrap. Add some black beans. Crock-Pot fajitas would be great over rice or just with extra veggies. Turkey…

Daniel wasn't fasting for dietary reasons. At the end of the fast, do you also get thrown in a lions den?

Good thing all dairy products come from alive cows. :p

I had to stop buying it because of costs :'( I miss it

Not easy. I've spent more time maintaining my weight whilst trying to lose than losing. I've finally had success this year, for the first time since 2012 (mostly pregnancy weight ). I lost about 22 pounds since Thanksgiving. I have lost 15 since April but it's been a struggle. July has felt like a total wash, reminding me…

I basically eat anything sweet without prejudice. *Shrugs*

Wish I could figure out how to post a picture. When I searched cream cheese, 2 T was over 7,000 calories. Wtf?

Look for the body recomping thread. Sounds just like what you are looking for. Stronglifts is a great program.

I would literally have eggs for every meal, minus taco Tuesday. Yum! I always get weird looks at the grocery due to my egg purchases. And weird you should get chickens comments. Hell no, I'd need way too many Chickens to make that financially feasible.

Start the day with high protein: eggs or egg whites. And fiber: fruit. Bring protein shakes. Choose one meal or dessert to splurge on per day. You won't gain fat but you don't want to feel bad. I usually struggle with eating out after being really precise on my diet. I don't eat low fat but something about the fattiness of…

Pre-plan your meals. Make sure your deficit isn't too big. Do you love to eat large amounts at a time? If so, set up your food day to do so. Do you hate waiting what feels like 6 days between meals? Plan a smaller meal every 3 hours. Are you eating below with mfp gives you? If so, don't! Your deficit is built in. Are you…

What's the quote about women specific nutrition/fitness: the advice giver is either stupid or trying to sell something. It might have been mark rippetoe or Jim wendler? Anyone?

Hey, I've been here since 2012, and that's just this round of losing pregnancy weight from my third. I'm even less leaner than you, if it makes you feel better. I'm going to add you as a friend.

@lpina2mi ah, good point. My old ones, passed down from my husband's grandma or great grandma (honestly can't remember and am scared to ask my mother in law lol) do better than new ones I bought.

A pocket full of nuts. A spoon and jar of peanut butter, eat a huge spoonful or more Everytime you go to the bathroom. Then a huge *kitten* dinner. And dessert. I'm jealous. I have the opposite problem. I try to avoid my kitchen all day long.

I'm pretty surprised at the amount of recommendations for VS. I haven't tried this line but in years past, their quality has tanked. And usually only have up to dd sizing in stores. I had bras from title9 for many years. They are pretty pricey. I currently have a under armour because I couldn't fathom spending that much…

Lodge is fine. Soap is fine, if it's well seasoned. I'm personally not using any of my 9 cast iron pans or Dutch ovens (lol) because the only high maintenance thing I can handle in my life right now is me. Lol.

A progressive program built around bench, ohp, squats and deadlifts. Your body shape doesn't really matter. If you want to try to balance the body work on building up chest, lats, traps, shoulders, arms.
-
Eat what mfp tells you.
-
You've probably lost some fat. Probably mostly water. And unless you are eating lots of protein and lifting, probably some muscle (probably some regardless). Are you taking measurements? That's a helpful indicator.

In addition to the recommendation to recomp, maybe consider what kind of clothes you are wearing. I always thought I had a muffin top but as time went on I realized that wear clothing that cut across my middle like it was make me look like I had a muffin top. Now I wear a slightly higher waist in my pants and it looks a…
