I need to read this. It's an ongoing saga because we all thought in the past that to lose weight: eat as little as you can and exercise as hard as you can. This clearly does not work otherwise why are a lot of us here!! I haven't upped my calories but I do eat back my exercise cals and always try to NET 1200 and it's…

Do you leave the hrm on all day? That may explain the huge amount of calories burned and I think I am right in saying this but I think that everyday movement is already calculated in the MFP equation

I have even started planning for bbqs/picnics. We have one to go to on Sunday and the main thng will be sausages...wow so high in cals. I am in charge of dips etc so am making my own low fat dip with lots of vegies. Of course I will supply biscuits and kabana too because everyone is not on a diet and it would be rude to…

Will digest later.

Thanks for that, that explains it. Good luck to you and well done for remaining a lady amongst all of the comments you are receiving.

But what I really want to know is how you are burning consistently more than 1000 calories, often over 1500, a day with exercise. Wow, you must exercise for hours! I am truly curious and would love to know.

It always surprises me when people say that they just can't fit in all of their calories alloted by MFP for the day. C'mon most of us are here because we ate too much/didn't exercise enough. STRANGE.

Thanks This looks interesting I will read later for inspiration.

Bump. Thanks for posting looks like interesting reading

I have a LOT of chooks so eggs are very plentiful for me. Am always using them to make quiches, tortillas etc. for my man. But for myself I use the white a lot: to thicken up stirfrys, as an omelette. But I do eat the whole egg as well as don't believe that they are bad for you. There is so much contradictory info out…

Oh and I wanted to say. Forget about the low-fat cheese. You may as well add a handful of sawdust to your food, waste of money in my opinion.

I hear you loud and clear. Cheese WAS my favourite food and yes, as you said, other foods were just a vehicle to eat it (very funny). Now I just add Kraft Parmesan to EVERYTHING. It is so low in calories and makes hot food very cheesy. Do try it, I promise you will not be disappointed. Even just added to plain old vegies…

Hello If you look at my food diary you will see that I eat quite a lot of food but still manage to keep under my cals for the day. I have always been a snacker so I incorporate that into my day. I have discovered Miracle noodles which have zero calories and give me the satisfaction I need and I am eating something. I just…

Hello Please add me as a friend. I am on here daily and am very motivated. It is hard but we just have to push ourselves. It will get easier you just have to change your mindset. Easy to say but hard to do I know. The fact that you are reaching out means a lot. Never give up on yourself, you will get there.

Thanks for that info. I am totally addicted to Miracle noodles and have been buying them online directly from the company. Bit expensive so I will see if I can find them at Woolies. I did check our local Woolies but they didn't stock them, but them I do live in the country. Will stock up when I go to Melbourne. Hooray for…

Explained very simply. Thanks, this topic comes up so often because most of us grew up thinking just eat as few calories as you can and exercise as much as you can and you will lose weight. WRONG WRONG WRONG

Some people can not pick up sarcasm in writing!
