Thank for all of the advice guys. I understand what I need to do.
-
My issues are I see your point. I need to get to where you are now. Thanks for the advice.
-
I am in the same boat. I log...my brain shuts off...I stop logging. I need to find a way to be consistent in my logging.
-
I've hired nutritionists and personal trainers. Between all of them they say "Food is 75%-90%" of your weight loss. An easy exercise is walking. Try to walk 30 minutes a day for four days a week.
-
Thanks for the advice.
-
How? I’ve been struggling with 5 lbs in the last 6 months.
-
My coaches and fellow athletes at my CrossFit box. We always keep each other motivated towards better nutrition and achieving better athletic goals. We are constantly cheering each other on.
-
I still remember one of my favorite athletes on motivation. Get a dog. Dogs need to be walked.
-
My CrossFit coach weighs and measures me once a month. He says that’s what is necessary. Now, I have one of those weight / body fat / water percentage tracking scales (Amazon $30). I weigh myself daily just like I log daily because these habits work for me.
-
I belong to a CrossFit community. The coaches and athletes are very encouraging. We build each other up to achieve our fitness goals. Drop into a CrossFit box, pay the daily fee and see if it works for you.
-
My CrossFit coach tells me if you’re going to overeat then eat protein. My snack food is hard boiled eggs with guacamole and hot sauce. Protein with healthy fat.
-
Drink water. It cuts down on snacking.
-
Are you eating carbs? They give you energy. Just don’t overdo it. Dehydration is also a cause of fatigue. Drink 64 oz of water each day.
-
Log before you eat. Then determine if the peanut butter is worth it.
-
Get a protein powder.
-
Have you lost body fat in the last two weeks? You could be gaining muscle and that’s why you are staying the same weight
-
Stop drinking. I lost 7 lbs in one week when I cut out the booze.
-
Water. I can drink 32 oz at my CrossFit box. I struggle to drink the other 32oz all day long.
-
I went through this with my CrossFit coach. Think fat loss not weight loss. You will start noticing changes in your face. Your clothes will start to feel loose. Get a scale that measures body fat. There is a good one on amazon for 30 bucks.
-
Native way. 120 cals, 2 carbs, 25 protein with no artificial flavor or color.
-
I had a talk with a fitness coach. He said your weight is going to fluctuate over time. The key is body fat loss. This is why measurements and a body mass tool is better than a scale.
-
The only thing that gets me to workout is the coaches and members of my CrossFit community. We encourage and push each other every day. Find a place near you and try it for a day.
-
Find a rowing machine. My Crossfit gym recommends rowing for people that have running issues.
-
Thanks guys
-
Based on the calculations I should 48.4% protein 60.9% fat and 0 carbs
-
Add me.
-
Figure outa way to elimination alcohol until you lose your weight. The carbs and sugar will immensely prohibit weight loss.
-
Start simple. Try to drink 64oz of water each day. Then try to do some walking. Pick small goals and celebrate your victories.
-
Add me

I have been told different caloric levels by MFP, nutritionist, CrossFit coach, doctor. Did you use the calories suggested my MFP?
