  • Not all of us are on here to lose weight. I'm in the same boat. My daily goal is 2530 cal NET a day. I eat a ton, but eating clean is MUCH harder to fill all of those calorie requirements. Some days I have to eat 3500 calories to get to where I want to be. Often I find I have to eat something like 1800 calories for dinner.…
    in How would you fix a deficit of 1500 cal? Comment by nikka488 August 2012
  • I agree. I think at the end of the day it's calories in vs. calories out. My final meal of the day tends to be between 1100-1400 calories. Granted I eat a lot per day (~2800 calories) but I always find my last meal of the day a catch up on my daily goal/nutritional requirements. My days tend to look like this: ~375…
    in Too many calories at once? Comment by nikka488 June 2012
  • Give it a little time. No need to ramp it all up at once. I second nuts (almonds). That 'full' feeling will dissipate.
    in At a stand still advice anyone? Comment by nikka488 February 2012
  • There are many different schools of thought when it comes to losing weight/ the right ratio of carbs/protein/fat, and calorie requirements. Here are some things I've noticed that make the biggest difference for me: 1. Shock the body. Don't do the same workout week in and week out. Your body is a well oiled machine and will…

  • I start with 3/4 a scoop of Premier Protein Vanilla powder in my black coffee, a banana, and some 'Better Than Peanut Butter' as soon as I wake up. Then I get shower & get ready for work. Before I leave the house I have 1 egg white, 1 egg w/ Yolk, 2 cups of baby spinach, and either some sweet potato or half a low carb…

  • Great job. The #1 secret is consistency. Just keep moving forward and you'll get to where you want to be. But don't forget to pat yourself on the back. You've earned it.
    in One year later... Comment by nikka488 November 2011
  • I cut out almost all diet soda a couple of years ago as well. But instead of cutting it out totally I allow myself to have it as a treat when I go out to eat. I have two throw away meals a week where I can eat whatever I want. Part of that is a diet soda. In terms of energy I've just exchanged my daily diet soda intake to…
    in Going off Diet Coke... Comment by nikka488 November 2011
  • There are so many conflicting 'guides' as to what to eat I find. I find myself generally in a calorie deficit most days due to my workout routines. I'm actually trying to gain more muscle, so I need to net 2500+ calories a day. I eat about 3000+ and find that incredible hard. (I eat as clean as possible). Lately I net…
