My new girlfriend's boy has 13 :lol: He hadn't heard of n+1....... She wasn't impressed I made him aware of it :lol:

Just standing up will probably burn around 250 calories compared to being sat down but it will depend on your normal activity levels whether that is extra or not. For the dancing it will depend on the intensity, I know from my experience an hour at a gig can be as good as half an hour cardio easily.

Depends on your reasons for weight loss........ One of the reasons for me is the reduced pressure on my knees which makes the size of my body slightly irrelevant.
-
Sounds like you want to cut out foods with processed sugar rather than processed food altogether
-
Well as a guy I think your hips are very nice and don't see the problem :smile:

I find the intensity/timing of exercise often determines my hunger levels. A high intensity workout in the morning and I'm often struggling all day, a low intensity workout in the evening and I often find I don't even want my evening meal. You just need to find a pattern that works for you.

If you are actually moving for example walking or running then it is really your weight * distance that will determine your calorie burn and nothing to do with your heart rate. I couldn't find the link that someone posted for a calculator recently but this one has a formula of 0.3*body weight per mile so if 100 pounds you…

No real extra protein than in semi skimmed milk, just 1 extra gram in 240ml serving and it's actually less protein per calorie. It is lower in carbs though if that is something you look for.

Completely agree, just pointing out that they are not something that you need to strive to achieve
-
Just remember Sodium and Sugars are limits rather than targets

You can get potato chip style snacks made of lentils which are a useful substitute as well

He'll probably say it was water weight and you were in a calorie deficit all along :confused:
-
The UK NHS only advise to visit doctors if it "keeps happening" with no guidance on the regularity to prompt a visit. I thought about getting a test kit but the consumables make it an expensive tool.

Thanks I will have to check them out, currently enjoying Skyr but it's not cheap when full price.

You would have needed to chose a goal, either lose/gain 0.5,1,1.5 or 2 lbs a week. This along with your activity level will determine the amount MFP gives you as your calorie goal.

Feeling full is not an indication of not being hungry though, you can be full but hungry at the same time.
-
I suffer with low blood sugar on occasions, how often would it need to occur to visit a doctor?
-
I saw a tweet from a celebrity who made a cauliflower pizza...... Let's just say it wasn't a success :lol:

Exactly all yoghurt is made from milk so there will be lactose present along with potentially fructose if fruit flavoured. Personally I just try and avoid the added sugar varieties which I tend to find are the fat free options.

I want the same, I had been feeling hungry 10 days ago and struggling to keep to a deficit when I stumbled on this thread so decided to have a break/refeed. I was worried how would I react to having the extra calories but I stayed on track with the same meals just a little bit more/extra snacks and I really found it hard…

There is almost an unwritten rule that you shouldn't spend very long on machines especially when it's busy. My thoughts are if I'm changing machines then I'm wasting the time it takes to get off one and set up on another so I pick a machine and stay on it for the duration.

Gels are useful to have as a standby in case you start tonk especially on unsupported rides as they get energy know you quickly. Flapjacks are one if my favourites and I've made some homemade protein bars with oats that I plan to take with me when I get on the saddle again.

Lol, I used Wii boxing to help me get my basic fitness back

A few years ago I went from no exercise for the best part of a decade to doing a 90 mile ride in the space of 4/5 months. When I first got on the bike I struggled with a ride of around 3 miles, I started slowly by riding to work once a week which was about 3 miles and then increasing the number of days. I added a weekend…

What he said ^^^^

I have only just started using scales, in the past I've lost 30 pounds and 10+ before I started using them this time. If you are eating processed food it's not a huge issue in my eyes, one slice of bread is likely to be similar to another for example. It does require you to be good at estimates though and if you are off…

Good to know as I was thinking of trying H&B
-
I am in a similar boat, been losing a lb a week fairly consistently for around 2 months without any issues but the last few days I have been at times pretty hungry and eating over my goal
-
I find I need some carbs as well so I often have a couscous with a protein source and plenty of salad
