Not really low. A macro split that might help is 50% carbs, 20% protein, 30% fat. I believe this is the default macro split for mfp. I have been doing this split and I am losing weight and have plenty of energy. My personal experience.

Another article on this: https://www.livestrong.com/article/448648-smelling-ammonia-after-exercise/ I think you should consider lowering your protein intake a bit, and increase your carb intake. And of course, keep hydrated. I base my opinion from the info in these articles. Good luck. Hopefully that tweak can help this…

Try water fitness activities such as lap swimming, water walking/jogging, aqua zumba, water aerobics, etc.

Yes!

Yes. Fasting so much makes it hard for your body to replenish the glycogen. Your body needs more fuel. And at this point it likely needs more rest. Hugs.

I lean yes. Since you run so much, you need more fuel and the right kind of fuels to fuel your workouts.

1. See your dr. 2. Stop the long fasts, your liver needs glucogen stores to fuel your runs. The long fasts make it hard to refuel for your next runs. 3. Get back to accurate tracking of your food. 4. Choose a diet with carbs. Mostly complex carbs and some simple carbs like fruit. The MFP default macro split is worth…

People of all shapes. skill levels, and fitness levels do swim to get fitter. No need to feel embarassed. I say go for it. You won't regret it.

Dead thread of the day... I am a sucker for dead threads. Lol

You might want to look into overeaters anonymous. Food addiction is real. Congratulations on your weight loss.

What are your typical activities at the gym? Do you do cardio? Aerobic excercise increases endorphins, so be sure to do cardio. Are there other activities you can add to your excercise routine, that you would like to try?

MFP gives you default macro goals. I follow those. So far so good.

What is going on? How can we help? Are you looking for activity thou can do? Are you having problems losing weight, or gaining?

I noticed that on many threads lately. Someone hates excercise and loves Keto. Lol

I know. But it can make the scale go up crazy high in hours. Proving in some cases,that water weight can go up quickly.

You did not gain 6 pounds of body fat in one week.

Try: 1) You can get support for your efforts here. Make some MFP friends. 2. Yes to planning your menu choices before going out for restaurant meals. Or stay home and make you own food. 3. Get in some extra excercise before you eat out. And/or eat a lighter meal during the meal before you eat out. *My sister brought home a…

This could be the cause of a weight stall. Use a food scale and weigh all of your food accurately, then log it. Extra bites of food do add up in the long run.

Before my workout I eat a meal about 2hrs before my workout. This meal contains carbs, proteins fats. The carbs fuel my workouts, without them I bonk. After workout may be a protein bar or light lunch.

I am shooting for 60-90 mins of lap swimming. Depends how I feel at the 60min mark if I continue to go on from after the 60 minimum mark. I heart swimming.

String cheese, lowcarb yogurt, turkey breast, smoked salmon, beef jerky, nuts

Ghee on occassion. 3)something dairy 4.) some protein food(s). 5)a piece of fruit 6) and maybe a veggie or more. 7.) Snacks/treats which can be things…

Coffee can cause GERD if you drink too much at one time or drink it on an empty stomach. But stopping coffee suddenly can cause withdrawal headaches. Something to take into consideration as you try trouble shooting your eating plan issues.
