Water intake is something that you really don’t need to track as so many foods contain a lot of water so you’ll never really be accurate. If you’re urine is fairly clear you’re hydrated.

That a lot of coffee! There are low fat creamers as mentioned so just use one of those.

after a month it’s best to lower calories when in doubt otherwise you’re just wasting time that you could be losing. Whoosh is more likely with people that are carrying less fat. Water retention is usually just your homeostatic system trying to balance out the fat loss with water but at your weight it’s highly unlikely…

Your new weekly maintenance is catching up to your new weight so time to drop a few hundred daily calories

too much and bloat happens. It can be pretty bad sometimes

You can have all you want provided it fits in your overall calorie target.

she’s asking about water retention and not fatloss. Water will always be moving around for several potential reasons. You usually just have to wait until the body decides to release it.

It depends on what kind of equipment you have. There are some good exercises however they are equipment dependent

No carbs and wine.

If you’re trying to build muscle that is too much cardio and a poorly structured weight training program. You will benefit from a proven beginner weight train program like Fierce 5 or something and a couple cardio sessions per week. What is your height and weight

yes that what I always do when in fatloss mode. If you’re obese and your goal weight is a lot lower you want to do it in increments. say you’re 320 lbs with a goal of 160. That would be too big a gap so you set goal weight at say 250 then at 250 set it for 200, etc.

Carlson’s.

Taking in fewer weekly calories causes weight loss. KETO is just something people do for various reasons however whatever dietary method you use will come down to overall calories. You want to eat in a way that will be sustainable after the weight is lost and KETO doesn’t fit that category for many people.

Taking in fewer weekly calories than you burn causes weightloss.

Those are those people and not me. Great for them if they need it. Watch movies like Pumping Iron and you won't see those guys sitting around logging. Like calorie counting, It helps some people and some others it doesn’t then that’s perfectly fine. It's always a personal choice

Fat loss is a product of a consistent weekly calorie deficit over time. Overall calories are what’s most important much more than your macros. While enough protein is necessary in all cases and some good fats, carbs are the low men on the totem pole as far as importance.

You’re not heavy enough to be shooting for 2 lbs a week. Look at 1 lb a week for losing the weight in a more healthy way.

Obese? Just walk. Fatloss is predominantly about diet so work on lowering your weekly calorie intake.

Calorie amounts can be a slippery slope to figure out. As mentioned above, 4 to 6 weeks at a certain weekly calorie amount is standard to really gauge how that calorie amount is working for you. You definitely want to figure weekly calories because day-to-day will always vary somewhat so you take seven days worth of…

I’m not sure however I’m sure some good ones are out there. Personally I’ve never even kept track of anything besides mentally. If you’re in tune to your workouts your mental notes are fine. Your workouts will vary, they are not a linear progression. That particular day you may be fully recovered, plenty of sleep, well…

Yep pretty close to that. If you take the skin off it helps a lot thought.

Wow amazing someone not asking how to lose 25 lbs in 2 weeks for their wedding.

Yes to the above. Any process that causes weightloss has the potential to cause rebound. Maintaining the lower weight seems to be a bigger challenge than the actual loss process in many cases.

Some do some don’t. You have to be careful to not overestimate exercise calorie burn. Some people add back 50% of their exercise calories for a safety net. The true test of your decision to either eat that calories or not eat that calories is to be consistent with what you’re doing for 4 to 6 weeks and review your progress…

undereating would require context.

being obese and undereating? You don’t need to drink more water, 6-8 glasses is plenty.

Work on diet for 6 months then re test.

I have no idea what Zep Bound is however I will tell you that all these programs that help you lose weight are not the long term cure for being overweight. Long term is lifestyle changes that include a diet that is sustainable.

you shouldn’t be lowering protein when you’re cutting

Calorie burn numbers are inaccurate for a number of reasons, you’ll never know if what you log is remotely accurate. For a normal person at a normal weight and a normal intensity you can generally figure around 100 calories burned for every mile.
