"I’ve been going anywhere from 4-6 days a week from 6-7am since mid January." "mid January". It's been a month. Chill. This stuff takes time.

It kills me a little bit every time I see someone saying, "I can't eat, I'm just not hungry". Meanwhile here I am struggling to stay under my calorie goal practically every day. When I'm not eating, I'm thinking of eating.

Don't expect any significant, visible changes for at least the first 3 weeks. Weight fluctuations due to water weight are too large and random to notice any significant weight loss over such a short time period.

Calories are fine. Been respecting my daily limit of 1840 per day.

If you go in a caloric surplus (more calories than required to maintain your current weight), you'll inevitably gain weight, whether it comes from carbs, proteins, fats, alcohols, or any combination thereof.

I tried keto for about a month and a half, and personally, I found it absolutely unsustainable to lay off the carbs - the cravings were far too strong, even after I had recovered from my "keto-flu" period. Recently I've been slowly reincorporating carbs back into my diet, but rather than the 200-300 g I used to have per…

A slight misconception there, it's recommended you get 1 g of protein per pound of lean body mass, not bodyweight. So if you were 170 lbs and say 12% bodyfat, that means you'd be carrying 149.6 lbs of lean body mass, and that would be your protein target, not the 170. Also I'd tip it more toward 0.8-0.9. 1 gram per pound…

Not too sure what your calorie goal is in a day but mine is 1840 and I have no problem getting in anywhere between 100-150 g of protein each day, all coming from tuna, eggs, milk, beef. etc Tuna and eggs are by far the biggest game-changers in terms of protein consumption. Everything after that is secondary and hardly…

One of my rules is to never drink my calories. Liquids just don't have the same effect of filling someone up as the same number of calories coming from solids. Water all day erryday. There's nothing you can't get from a juice cleanse that you can't get from just eating fruits. If anything, the juices are worse because of…

Not a risk I'm willing to take. I tracked every bit of food that entered my mouth back when I was 16 or something along the lines of that. I was constantly in shape and never had any weight gain or maintenance issues for several years. One day I decided to leave it up to "intuition" and that led to a lazy slippery slope to…

Fight the urges and cravings for about 3 weeks (~the amount of time to make/break a habit) and they'll naturally stop. Not to say that you probably won't suffer during those 3 weeks, but you'll thank yourself once it's over. If you absolutely must have any sugar, make it fruit.

I have a jump rope that I use to jump for 3-5 minutes at a time over the course of the day. Excellent calorie burn for minimal time investment. Not to mention you wake up the next morning wishing you didn't have calves. But that goes away as you adjust.
