I was wondering the same thing because I don't want to lose my streak.

30,000 steps today and 26,000 yesterday only 130 synced

Lost 2lbs after coming off of a diet break. So it was good for me have another scheduled for August.

Mine doesn't either but they ask and it's in the record so law enforcement sees it when they run your license. But it's nice that cashiers don't see it when I buy wine.

When I worked for a beef processing plant we cut steaks for Outback, Chili's and a few other chain restaurants. We would weigh a 12oz steak at 11.5 to 12.5oz a 9oz would be 8.5 to 9.5. Smaller cuts would be a quarter ounce +/-

That's what I would say. Sounds like a perfect response.

I hate exercising. I do it for strength, endurance and overall health. Eating more is a byproduct of exercise I don't exercise to eat more. I also don't exercise more if I ate too much.

Ended my break on Tuesday, today is Friday and I have lost 1.2lbs already. I have also been eating more than I was before the break by 200 calories. I think I may actually be more active than I thought.

I could never be a vegetarian. I'd die literally because I wouldn't be able to eat enough calories to survive. That being said, sometimes when eating meat I do get a little grossed out thinking that I'm eating muscle.

Ultimate goal is my original goal with mini goals in between. For instance I wanted to be in a certain pair of jeans a certain time frame. Then set a new goal whether it be a fitness goal or a weight/size goal. I decide as I go but have not changed my original goal. 37 more pounds until I hit that number.

172 so lost 5 this month. Not too shabby for taking a 2 week diet break. I forgot about this until today.

Just getting into the deficit is the "jump start". The first week I went into a deficit I lost 5lbs, water weight mostly. Vitamins probably are a good idea for many people. Lots of us are deficient in one vitamin or more.

Bbq sauce, mustard, and thai sweet chili sauce.

Over a week of without working out from strained groin. So today I did the Insanity fit test. My numbers were down or equal none went up. Not disappointed I expected this. Just glad to be back at it today.

On day 5 of chantix. Started having the vivid dreams 2 nights ago and my energy is way up and my mood is fabulous. I am usually easily annoyed by somewhat minor things but nothing is bothering me. I was so worried that chantix was going to cause me to be angry rather than just annoyed. It is so weird. I don't think I've…

https://www.student-aesthetics.com/articles/diet-breaks-to-keep-losing-fat-explained/ Here's an article that explains why I chose the path I did. Honestly, I haven't had a problem mentally with coping or feeling deprived throughout the deficit. I only got a little sad today because I can't eat as much ice cream as I have…

There is a thread in these forums about refeeds and diet breaks. There may be something about what you mentioned in that thread. The diet break study that was done in Australia had the "dieters" either eat at a deficit for 16 weeks or 2 weeks on 2 weeks off. It showed better weight loss and maintenance for the ones who…

2 weeks is what has been recommended by everyone I have spoken to and nearly every thing I have read about diet breaks. Diet breaks have been proven effective and I even read a study the other day claiming that refeeds are not as effective as a diet break and in some cases not effective at all. The reason it scared me is…

I actually lost 2 pounds during the break. I assume it was because of the previous deficit though. It was great because I didn't have to worry about picking certain foods off the menu before I went out to eat. It was so nice. I had more energy for my workouts but the second week of the break I couldn't workout because of a…

Ending my diet break today. I am a little sad that I am going back to eating less. Going to stay the course though, as I have 30 to 40 more pounds to lose.

My friend was eating 1100 calories and lost a lot of hair. Luckily for her she already had thick hair so it wasn't that noticeable to others, but she noticed everytime she brushed or washed her hair. It devastated her. She also couldn't sleep and had no energy was irritable and suffered from extreme anxiety during that…

I am on a diet break right now and lost 2lbs. Although, I'm assuming the 2lbs was from the deficit that I have had from before the break. So technically I did lose weight after I increased my calorie intake.

21 day fix. There are lunges and squats but not jumping. I don't know your limitations but I'd try that one.

For me it depends on what time food is being served if it's noon, I'll skip breakfast. If it's later I'll eat low calorie filling items during the day. To save room for the stuff I want.

Food scale, gym membership, workout clothes, lots of time. Rewards have been weight loss, lower BP and heart rate lots of compliments.

I prefer room temp water.

I took it before but I stopped early because I quit smoking. I felt that I didn't need it anymore. I had some crazy dreams one of which if I close my eyes I can still see it like it's happening now. I quit for 1.5 years.

I'm going to the dr. tomorrow to get a prescription for chantix. I'm nervous about appetite and gaining. I've been losing for 3 months so now it's time to quit smoking and really focus on overall health.

Around 1% is my goal.
