-yes im planning to since i thought it didnt feel right, esp the breathing. I have to constantly take deep breaths every now and then Thank you

Heres a helpful link :) http://www.bodyrecomposition.com/fat-loss/why-big-caloric-deficits-and-lots-of-activity-can-hurt-fat-loss.html/

Yes overtraining can be bad too. I learned that this week. It increases cortisol like what my mfp friend said. Im on my 2nd month and hv gained weight. I ws on 1200cal with light-moderate exercise but since i became fitter ive been exercising for 2hrs moderate to heavy. Thats when i noticed i gained weight and also was…

Ive been struggling with weight loss for years. I know how it feels and be discouraged from time to time. The lack of support from people around u as well as lack of knowledge about lossing weight (proper diet and exercise) can make u lose focus on ur goal. I was almost 120kg when i started and i remember dragging my feet…

Added :D

This happened to me lately too and i was gonna ask about it here. Last night I increased my calorie intake from 1200 to 1500 thinking im probably starving myself. Ive been doing alot of cardio (2hrs a day, thats 20 min stretch/yoga with 30-35min strength training the rest all cardio) I did get sore muscles but it wasnt…

Intuitive eating? lol doesnt work on me. I stopped logging my calories for a year i think and just ate whatever, even thought i was eating right, but turns out there are some food that might be the same but one has more calorie than the other, get what i mean? lately ive been cooking my meals, that way i know whats in it.

my diet has been experimental and ive been on and off coz back then i didnt have variety and didnt know what and how i should be eating. in 2008 i tried to follow a meal plan where i had to eat for lunch was onions, 1 can tuna and 3 crackers, almost no dinner or breakfast, then exercise for 1 hr. i did lose alot of water…

OMG u brought up guidelines. i remember she was looking thought a small booklet with some sort of guides and she was doing some calculations and asked me questions like if my period is regular or not, if ive got thyroid problems and etc. I thought that was strange, i guess she was sticking to whatever guides shes been…

nope, i was hoping that this time around ild be getting a different opinion, but it turns out is the same plan that another dietician (from same hospital) recommended to me around 8 yrs ago.

thats actually a month and 1 week :) when i went to the dietician (2 weeks ago) i wasnt losing much or so i thought. Turns out it was water weight and been packing muscles, i weighed myself last Saturday and realized ive lost another kilo :) also, i was wondering what food they served me when i was admitted to the same…

I know! thats was my reaction too! especially when she told me that my original food intake has "too much carbs" ahahahha, now that i think about it, maybe thats why her plan reached 1600cal. i dont eat alot of bread for the reason that it doesnt get me full and 1 slice has like 90-120cal? ild rather eat 2 fillets of…

lol, first time to see her. last time i went to the dietician was over 8 yrs ago and her plan was almost the same plan as this one, thats why I had to ask here on MFP if its right or not.

lol, i told her my aim was to lose weight, i told her ive been exercising (weights and cardio and burn up to 800cal) she said that was good, so when i questioned her about the plan, all she said was i continue to eat more salad, and if im hungry at night, i should eat just yogurt with honey. oh and she said i should set a…

oh i have no idea, i trust that shes a certified dietician since theyre employed in a reputable hospital, but then again this hospital has had its share of doctors who couldnt even diagnose my simple ailment once ( like this Doctor, who doesnt know why have headaches and nausea, i later was told by a friend who was…

Great, so far im doing things right and lately have substituted most of my carbs for salads makes me fuller :)

Consultation is free (benefits of my work) thank goodness hehehe

ahaha thought so. I was thinking if i should follow her coz she is the dietician. I got discouraged when she gave me the plan lol. Ive tried that approach several years ago and it made me hungry everyday thus made me stop dieting. But now i know better. So far ive reduced my carbs :) i use a bit of oil (coconut or olive)…

Best advice alright :D I brokeup with my boyfriend 4 weeks ago, havent spoken to him since and it fueled/motivated me to change and improve myself. Plus them exercises help due to the endophins...Elle wood's words kept popping in my head "Exercise releases endorphins and endorphins makes people happy"
