  • Yes, I'm trying to maintain maybe lose 5 more lbs. However, finding motivation a little tough right now. I enjoy exercising daily, it's maintaining a calorie deficit that's tough. Maybe we can help each other?

  • Imo the advice given is good. If you want a shredded look, cutting a few calories is the answer. Maintain protein at 1 gram per pound and cut some carbs and fat. Your workout program looks excellent you just need more time. GL!

  • I have been considering giving up diet soda and artificial sweeteners(Fresca) because of potential health benefits. Glad I found this post. I have been drinking Fresca since about 1986 when trying to lose weight for wrestling. Somedays I drink a 2 liter per day going on 35 years with no noticable effects. Will just keep…

  • I have been using Garmin and MFP for about 2 months. IMO, the Garmin overestimates calories burned or I’m underestimating calories consumed. I do use an oz. scale for food, but something is off by about 500 calories per day. I would start with half, like you suggested.

  • I have the Omrom you linked. 2nd one in about 10 years. The first one broke a few years back and just replaced it about a month ago. I like it and it gives fairly consistent readings. Like others have stated, the single reading is less important than the tread, imo. I'm very lean now, so occasionally I can't get a reading,…

  • Eat nuts!! 1 oz of nuts, imo, seems like nothing and pack lots of calories. A handful, generally 2 or 3 oz. adds hundreds of good nutritious calories.

  • Thanks everyone for great feedback!! I have a blood test scheduled for late September and hoping for great results. My last blood test was well over a year ago and the results were not great. Since then I've completely changed my diet and lost 60lbs. I will post the results and anticipating that I can put my low fat diet…

  • It takes time and a lot of effort to build strength and muscle mass, but you’re doing it right, IMO. I would suggest, as you stated, use more free weights and simpler compound exercise. Deadlifts, bench press, squats, shoulder press and others a like, three days a week. GL
