The fact that they say the 'taco bowl' is much higher than the double decker hamburger clearly shows that they're trying to throw people off. They must've added some really calorie dense sauces to that taco bowl to make it contain almost 1000 kcal.

My biggest challenge right now is actually economical, believe it or not. I'm finding it hard to fit healthy things like gym memberships into my economy. And I don't even own a pair of sneakers if I wanted to do outside workouts like walking/running. I try to do it (walking mostly) in my boots, but it's not convenient. I…

My local general shop! To start of with we have really strict rules here in Sweden about meat, and 99% of what you find in general stores can be eaten raw within moderation. It's recommended that you freeze it first though, so that's what I do. I buy minced beef, portion it out and freeze in packages. Then let them thaw in…

I haven't binged in a while, but for me it was all mental. Since I was diagnosed with BED I didn't change my eating habits in general (other than not bingeing), but I worked hard on my mental situation and trying to determine why I binged in the first place. I haven't gotten to a place where I've figured it all out, but at…

Thank you for answering! Great to have the input of someone with actual knowledge :smile: Also, lol at people who felt the need to woo someone for asking about the rules :joy:

'Cooked' might be to exaggerate since I had beef tarte (that's raw) and cold-served potato gratin, haha. But it was great never-the-less! :smile:

What are 'active calories'? It's a measurement I haven't heard of before.

Let me preface this with: I might've misunderstood, but I interpretated this as that you're eating 1800kcal (sometimes less) and burning 700+ calories a day. That's a net intake of 1100 or less, which isn't very much. MFP recommends no less than 1200 net intake per day for women. What are your stats? Height/Weight Are you…

Thanks for such good and fast answers! Some of these I hadn't consider, so I will definitely have to do that and see what I can put together in the end. Thanks again! :smile:

Comment to follow thread, I've been wondering myself too! I read somewhere that protein should be 1x[bodyweight in pounds] grams per day, but MFP has (without me changing any settings) given me 75 grams... so someone is clearly wrong, lol. Want some macro tips too!

I haven't checked out his program/workout routine builder yet, but he writes the most hilarous blogposts and he actually has some really great knowledge. He debunked starvation mode with serious proper science (yay!), he wrote the most hilarous '5 things you should never eat list' (hint: one of the things is: foods you…

I sort of do IF naturally, lol. I get up at 9 and have breakfast. Have dinner (last meal) around 17~ish. Guess that'd be different if I was working though, might not be able to keep it up then :tongue:

Is this an iPhone thing? Mine really doesn't work like that. For example, I don't get to put the 'speed' when entering walk, it's already predetermined by the entry name. I'm highly confused. EDIT: And thanks for all the input guys, I really appreciate it!

Cardio: Power Walk, 43 minutes.

Thanks so much for all the replies and tips! I've managed to get my eyes on both some which simply use real sugar, and ones that are sweetened with aspartame and acesulfame-K, same as in most diet sodas etc. So it's definitely sweetners that I've had before and that I believe I can live with, lol. Haven't decided which one…

Neither 'Jog/Walk' nor 'jog walk intervals' is available when I search. Did you create them yourselves?

According to MFP database, 'walking at a brisk pace' is 300kcal for 43 minutes. Whereas 'Running (Jogging)' at the slowest pace available (and probably the speed I keep when actually running/jogging) is 632. That's more than double.

Well, I don't have children but other than that I can tell you this of myself. 1) I rarely mealprep - I do cook in bulk sometimes but nothing more than that. 2) I'm a full-time student who is currently on sick-leave and doing full-time therapy instead. So either way, full time occupation. 3) Other than my occupation I do…

Student on sick-leave who is now looking for a job. WIsh me luck, lol.

Please don't be :cry:

With that username? Most definitely. That's adorable!

Nice :smile:

I do like photography, but I don't consider myself very good at it. Here's some of my older work since I haven't done much recently.

Wouldn't you enjoy bingo?

My current mini goal is to survive my 4km jog/walk tomorrow, lol. Got to start somewhere, eh. It motivates me that it'll feel flippin' amazing when I do it tomorrow! EDIT: Will feel flippin' amazing after* I do it tomorrow, lol.

That's not how the human mind or psychology works...
