Personally, I would just weigh it as is BUT, if you prefer, take each of the fruit that you like to eat at work and weigh it with the skin and without the skin. If you find that a banana, for example, is 31% peeling, then weigh the bananas that you take to work and multiply by .7 to get the estimated weight of the…

Women lack the testosterone to bulk without steroids... You will actually become more toned from the weight training.

Balance in all things. Just keep it within your calorie limits and you'll be fine. I don't drink (any more) but it applies to this as well as anything else.

It adds empty, non-productive calories. Other than that, it is calories like any other. Nutritionally, your calorie allotment could be better spent.

That is not bad progress for two months. Weight loss is not linear. There will be some times like this. Do check your serving sizes. Best wishes on your continued progress.

congrats.

I would be underweight if I were to weigh what I did in HS... (I was not then @ 180 lbs)... I just have a bit more muscle mass now than I did then. At any rate. Congrats and best wishes on attaining your ultimate goals.

Getting

At that height... it will be difficult to lose and maintain 1200 calories or more. Exercise does not have to be "exercise"... Find some activity that you like to do and it can be fun.. Just move. Much easier that way.

When I get there, I'll let you know.

That would be a decent level of aerobic exercise. Running burns a little more than walking. Walking on an incline usually burns more than running on flat surface. Honestly, you can lose weight without any exercise what-so-ever, however walking will burn some extra calories and is good for your heart health -- especially if…

There was a movie I saw as a teenager on the tele... It was two guys driving around and one was walking around trying to kill the other one. No words were ever spoken in the movie. I don't even know what the movie was by title or really anything else. I just remember it. Weird. A true waste of time. If I remember…

muhahaha... Knows 14 different languages and is actually a CIA secret agent. His real phone is a shoe phone. His Code name is "Maxwell Smart". I can't say how I know all this.

Quite frankly, I don't really study what guys wear at the gym. As long as they are wearing something to cover their unmentionables and it is decent and unobtrusive, it's all good. I'm too busy with what I'm doing to worry too much about what others are doing (except to get ideas on better exercises to enhance my own…

Nice smile there.

Probably a glitch. If you post after midnight for the day prior, sometimes it will not post. I have accidentally, hit the post button prematurely at like 600-700 calories before and it would post. I do agree that it is not good to go under 1200 calories per day in most cases, unless you are really short in stature.

Activity level varies from day to day. Therefore, the most accurate way to deal with it is to keep you at "Sedentary" and add significant activities. Cycling to work is a great exercise but if it is 121 in the shade during the Summer time or a hurricane outside, you most likely will not be cycling that day. Plus you have…

Band Director/General Music -- Mississippi. 20 year veteran teacher with 28 years in retirement. Have lost from 344-214. Back up around 240 +/- but do lift some so it is not as bad as the numbers appear. Yes, the stresses of legislative initiatives will drive you to do more than gain weight if you let it. Key is not to let…

Small

squats and deads. abduction and adduction exercises will help with toning. Calorie deficit whether with or without aerobic exercise will help eliminate fat stores. Unfortunately a good amount of the eventual shape of the thighs (and other body parts) are the result of heredity; however, we can help shape our bodies through…

Building Superintendent.

while making a ham sandwich.

Popcorn can be but avoid the microwave kind (especially that with "extra butter")... Of course, no butter is healthiest but who wants that? I like pickles... Especially my cajun spiced pickles. All things in moderation though.

I applaud the effort you are making. You come here for help. That is good. I know you are getting conflicting views. There are a lot of theories out there ... some are misinterpretations of good data... others offer good advice. I do sort of like the post above about the quality of food in the college mess halls... If you…

We're all too busy at the gym man.. LOL>
