How tall are you

If you've been at this calorie amount for less than four weeks You've got to give it some time. If at that point, you still haven't lost then your weekly calorie amount is too high and you're gonna have to lower it

Meat will lose around 20% of his weight when it’s cooked on average. So it cooked meat that is figured out say 200 cal by its weight will actually be around 240 calories raw. Much will depend on the fat content of the meat for instance, ground beef with a lot of fat will end up working out about the same because some of…

calculating calorie intake and calories burned is all well and good, but the proof is in the actual outcome No weekly calorie deficit.

Yes, because different cooking methods will have different water contents in the cooked meat so always weigh it raw to be as accurate as possible

Any calorie amount specified by this app or any other app is going to be strictly a starting point not meant to be perfectly accurate, however 2,300 sounds reasonable and maybe even a bit low depending on how active you are during the day, so to lose around a pound a week you’d need to eat 500 cal a day less than that. The…

After a month with no loss, you’re not in a weekly calorie deficit

Based on someone saying BMR is USUALLY lower than TDEE tells me that no they don’t know it BMR is

BMR are the calories it takes to live if you laid in bed all day and didn’t move. You don’t want to eat that low. Your TDEE are all the calories you burn throughout the day, including your BMR your exercise and your NEAT.

that amount may be accurate or it may not be accurate. Those numbers are just a starting point. The right way to do it which will actually save time in the long run is track your calories for a week and if your weight has been stable for the most part for a while, those are your maintenance calories so you want to take…

what is your height and weight

Re access in 4 weeks. That is the time it takes for you body to process everything

Unless you’ve been tracking your calories for more than 4 to 6 weeks don’t worry about it. Wait till that time frame and then gauge what your weight is doing. It can take that long for the body to adjust. if that point you’ve gained weight then it means your weekly calorie amount is too high. You’ll have to adjust…

Some people do some people don’t some people eat maybe half. The problem is sometimes the app over estimates how many calories you’re burning so that ends up making you eat more than you should. A lot will also depend on how accurate your weekly calorie counting is so you have to pick The way you wanna do it and do it for…

Just no

ouch

Taking in more calories never has and never will improve fat loss. When you’re carrying a decent amount of fat the only way to lose it is to continue to cut calories, if you’re not losing that means you’re not in a deficit.

You want to look at weekly calories that way the number will encompass all of your calories for the whole week. You never eat the exact same amount of calories every day so that’s why figuring daily calories as far as how you will progress or not is going to be accurate . If you add up your weekly calories at this point…

There are a lot of videos and articles out there on IF. Anyone can do one and sound legit. Bottom line is that fat loss is and always will be a product of a consistent weekly calorie deficit over time. If IF causes you to take in fewer calories overall then it will be beneficial if it doesn’t then it won’t. And yes…

An hour is more than plenty of time to be spending in the gym at one time as far as the rep ranges. It’s a really good idea to mix those up and not stick to just one all the time. Look at doing between 12 and 16 sets per week per muscle group.

You are not in a consistent weekly caloric deficit.

You want to figure your calories on a weekly basis. Add seven days worth of calories and divide by seven look at that number. See how that relates to your daily target. If that number is higher than your daily target than this week, you will not lose any fat for the week. Get back on the horse next week and try to do…

Food labels can be off by 20% legally. If there’s a discrepancy, I always take the higher number to be safe especially if it’s a food that I’m going to eat often because if you underestimate those calories overtime, they really add up and make you underestimate your overall calories.

Just cut back on carbs and fat and add protein I guess I’m not understanding the problem.

There is no way to really tell you if it’s valid or not. You’ll just have to try it for 4 to 6 weeks and see what the outcome is. 2,000 or any other calorie amount is only valid If in fact you’re being as accurate as possible with your weekly calorie counting and tracking.

Thawed

You want to review your diet. Eliminate as many ultra processed foods as possible, things like cookies, chips, treats white bread etc. don’t drink calories. Eliminate alcohol. Diet should be predominantly lean protein sources and veggies. Water for beverage. Learn to count calories however adherence to the above will most…
