Bump! Love this post!

Congratulations on breaking through your plateau! You look great! & good advice on eating clean to try to break through a plateau, I definitely think it helps with that! :smile:

You look amazing!! Congrats!! :smile:

GREAT advice. My solution was to not reply to posts anymore, or read threads that might be controversial.

Never mind.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>For a very active person, someone who exercises 5-6 days a week the formula would be: 91 kg * 1.2g/kg = 109.2 grams of protein per day I'm not an expert, I am going by what I have read in a class. If you are an expert and know what you are talking about then fine. I am not saying that I know what protein…

Here is the info I have, if anyone cares: This is an example. If someone weighs 200 pounds, to get a range of the RDA of how much protein should be eaten, the formula would be 200 lb / 2.2 lbs/kg = 91 kg then 91 kg * .8g/kg = 72.8 grams of protein per day then 91 kg * 1.0g/kg = 91 grams of protein per day So, this means…

^^^^^^^^^^^^Yup, totally agree that watching Forks over Knives can change a lot of perspectives on protein intake. Also, I took an applied nutrition class when I was in college and there is a formula that can be used to calculate your protein intake based on weight and activity level. I will find the book later when I get…

I lose weight by counting calories, but I lose more weight when the quality of the calories are better than the quantity. For me, it takes a lot of fruits and veggies and basically eating clean. I just started doing this in December and didn't weigh myself until the beginning of January, so my pound count isn't really that…

Bump for later :smile:

Bump. I want to read later.

Hi, I'm getting married in June and also trying to tone my arms, along with everything else. I have learned from another bride who lost a bunch of weight and really toned her arms by using the Tone It Up Beach Babe DVD. There are a bunch of different workouts for your arms, abs, butt, etc on it. I just started using the…

I agree, quality over quantity. :flowerforyou:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^THIS sounds like an awesome idea! :drinker:

Getting married in June, feel free to add me. :smile:

Makes sense. :smile:

Congratulations!!! :happy:

I feel the same exact way. My scale won't move, but I think I've lost a little bit of body fat based on my measurements. I decided I am going to lower my calories just a tad (only because I was really having a hard time eating all of my calories and I felt really full, so I would just end up drinking my calories and that…

LOL. LOVE THIS POST. :drinker:

BUMB! Will read later. I'm 5'9"

LOL mmmmmmmmm... I want it AAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL:love:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^GOOD POINT!!!

Good job OP on the weight loss! I think people are only arguing against the 1200 calories per day because it's really hard to maintain, you will plateau eventually, you may gain some weight back after your journey, will have a lot of muscle loss and possibly look "skinny fat." I think there are good intentions here to…

Great post!

Great post! :smile:
