Yes, but too much of both isn't healthy either right?

Anyone else finding it hard to up the calorie intake? I'm trying really hard, and sometimes I succeed, but other times I just don' feel like eating more than about 1300/1400 cals...

Heya! I'm also 23. I've just started this 'eat more to weigh less' and it's kind of difficult for me. Feels like I'm over eating!

My TDEE is 1965 and my BMR is 1415, then what should I enter as my daily calorie goal here on MFP? (sorry, still very new to this!)

That's really helpfull, thanks Ryann!

My diary is open. I'm eating 1200 again because of the weight gain, upped it to 1400/1500 for a few weeks. Lost 5kg, gained 3 back now.

I've been doing mpf for a while now, lost a bit, now I've been gaining it back bit by bit. It's not like I eat more or work out less... Frustrating! What excercises have you been doing?

Thanks all! In a normal week I work out 3x 60 minutes, and I walk at least 30 minutes daily. And I try to eat different things every day, to prevent my body getting used to certain foods...

That link is really helpful! Thank you!

I'm trying to lose the last 2kg. That's why I tried to up my calorie intake before, then I gained a kilo or two. It's like my body "likes" this weight...

Thanks for the help guys :D

I'm going to South-Korea. That's why I'm a little worried. I know I'll keep myself from binging, but I want to try as much as possible!

Tried a size 36 jeans (US6/UK8) and it fits! :)

I try 3 times a week.

Anyone?

Dried fruit! I'm studying too and dried fruit is an awesome snack. Low in kcals, sweet and crunchy :)

Thanks! Chocolate will do :) (Slight panic attack cause of the red numbers today, went over my calorie intake)

All milk or just cow milk? I've got a milk intolerance and prefer to drink goat milk. But to answer your question: alpro soya's got almond milk which is low in calories :) I thought it was about 50-55kcal per 200ml! On the other hand: there's loads of flavours to soy milk! I miss milkshakes most, and vanilla or banana…

Thanks for explaining guys :) I thought fruit/veggie sugars where different (healthier) from sweets etc.!

This! Plateaud for over a month, then carefully (I was also scared) upped my kcal intake, now I lose 0,5kg a week!

As I don't have a scale of my own, I weigh myself once a week, when I'm at my parents.

As some of you said something with olive oil... I might take the pasta with olive oil and red peppers! Or simply tomato sauce. Thanks for the tips guys!!

I'd burn some kcals before if I had the time ;) I usually take the spaghetti al pesto, might take an mozzerella or seafood salad this time then :) It's just that I've planned this dinner for tomorrow evening, and I've got one (or two even) barbecues this weekend! My oh my.

Up your calorie intake. It might sound a little scary, but it did work for me! :D

Voor mij gaat het meer om het gezond(er) proberen te leven. Ik woon sinds een jaar op kamers/op kot en dan is het niet altijd even gemakkelijk om gezond te eten, zeker niet met een studentenbudget ;)

I normally drink black coffee, but I go to Starbucks for a cappuccino with soy milk (or any other coffee shop that's serves coffee with soy milk, as I'm milk intollerant). ((I've worked at Starbucks for 2 months, got loads of free coffees and foods and gained 2-3kg. I used to drink grande's or venti's all the time, now I…

I'm somewhere around 130lbs right now, aiming for 125 :)

As far as I know ... green tea and bananas help :)

Size 8/10UK (6/8US). I'm a 10/12 now, I just want to drop a size :)

I usually keep it to muesli with yoghurt or milk, or knackebrod with peanutbutter or cheese :)
