  • As well as the excellent advice above you can also drink calories by blending yourself a shake
  • No one is horrid. We all have different starting points. Keep to a calorie deficit and do whatever exercise you can and you will transform yourself. There are no lost causes. Does it take time? Yes it can do but people have achieved amazing results with consistency. You can too but be kinder to yourself on the journey 💪
  • Great results but curious how you managed to maintain weight on 2000 calories per day. Your tdee would have been much higher given weight/height and calories burnt during workouts. Impressive transformation 💪
  • If you change the view to day view for today, then change it to last 7 days. It will show you your daily average from Sunday 31/03 to Saturday 06/04 👍

  • Yes but like me your in the uk so you have logged something already for tomorrow. Unless you don’t plan on eating anything else on Sunday then your daily average will go up. You can set your own calorie goals if you prefer. This is useful if you want to use MFP under the tdee method which is good if you roughly do the same…

  • It’s the calories you have eaten after any exercise calorie burn has been deducted from your total

  • What scale or app is it that gives you all that information? Please put on some weight
  • @Keladelphia outstanding results 💪
  • For what it’s worth I’d imagine 2 things have possibly happened. First perhaps you have underestimated the calories you have eaten. This is easy done, you forget to add something, pinch something off your partner/kids plate, make an eyeball calculation or when out and you have to guesstimate the calories in food it’s quite…
  • I am 5’10 168lbs reasonably low bf % and I cut on 2200 cals per day. I also train 6 days and would say maintenance for me is around 3000-3500 depending on how many steps I do per day. If you don’t have a trend app like happy scale or libra then I would get one. Free apps but will let you become more aware of normal…
  • How many calories are you eating? Could always blend up some shakes. Milk, oats, banana, whey, peanut butter, drizzle of honey 😋easy way to get another 800 calories 4lb is a big loss though unless it’s been water weight. If you have been working out and counting calories for a while at your weight you shouldn’t be losing…
  • Eat more and train the same if your happy with yr workout days.
  • You need to eat more. You have a low body fat but you could do with adding muscle. If you are unable to eat more food then please cut back on activity so that you put weight on. Good luck and don’t avoid carbs
  • Problem is all ways to lose weight rely on one thing, calorie deficit. That’s why calorie counting is key. IF or any other way will only work for you to lose weight if you are in a calorie deficit. If you don’t want to count calories as it causes you stress then you will just need to try your best to guess your intake to…
  • How hot can it be in NI? 😆 freezing here in Scotland esp during a cut
  • Wow looking great 👍💪 congrats
  • I would raise my calories slightly and slow down the weight loss or I would increase my calories slightly but increase my exercise to burn more calories if I wanted to keep losing 1.5lbs week. It’s not that I think your losing too fast at 1.5lb loss per week, it’s because at 6 foot if your eating 1600-1700 calories then…
  • Well done on reaching your initial goal 💪 Weight fluctuations are normal. Generally they’re caused by water weight. Maybe you have ate something with a higher salt content or maybe your body retains more water to repair muscles after a hard workout. Just the way it is I’m afraid. Better to use a weight trending app for…
  • I’d be damn proud of they results too. Great work 💪
  • Thanks! I seem to be better at bulk/cutting than I am at maintaining.
  • So I’m 0.6lb lower than my last cut, that counts right? Apparently bodyfat is 5% lower as well. Week 11 and getting very hard. I think another 4lbs would see me where I want to be but considering a last minute vacation. A refeed is well and truly due so if I go away I think I will go to 0.5lb week loss when I return
  • Replied on your other post. I’d say 15-17% could do with putting on some muscle so recomp or slow bulk. If bodyweight excercises are to easy now then you need to find ways to make them harder to ensure progression. If you could get to a gym that would be better.
  • 15-17% perhaps a little light for your height. Maybe a small calorie surplus while lifting to put on some muscle rather than continuing a cut. What’s your own thoughts?
  • Midway through my tenth week on this cut, first noticed a drop in strength with my bench press this week. Not sure if it was just a bad lifting day. Other things have improved as I get lighter like weighted chin ups and dips
  • Weight trend apps are helpful as they show your moving average weight loss. Helps realise what are water weight fluctuations as well as easier to see what you actually lose per week. For iPhone it’s happyscale and for Android it’s libra. Also a version for use on a desktop but I can’t remember the name.
  • If you have the training part in check then you just need to eat more. You shouldn’t just be consuming protein shakes on training days. You want to hit your protein goal everyday. If you struggle to eat enough calories then make smoothies. Add things like full fat milk, porridge oats, banana, peanut butter, scoop of whey…
  • You’re not fat 🤷‍♂️
