  • My lean body mass plus 10%
  • your weight can fluctuate daily anywhere between 1 - 8lbs but this is not fat. 1lb of fat is 3500 calories. To gain 1lb of fat you would need to eat 3500 calories above your TDEE. I would recommend if you are going to weigh to do it every week or every 2 weeks. I'd only weigh in daily to monitor your weight fluctuation…

  • Not sure of the best way to add my protein to my oatmeal. I hear the milk add 30g oatmeal 30g of powder. Which is very too thick for me I like my oatmeal milky which means more milk then the volume is too much. Maybe I'll make my oatmeal and shake separate and add afterwards. Hmmm

"For example, a relatively fit 180lb man should aim to consume between 108g and…
  • My 2cents You have over estimated your exercise calorie burn, Heart Rate monitors are just an indication and never completely accurate. Also calorie intake by logging again is an estimation as there is margin for error. ( I always log 20- 25% less of estimated calorie burn through exercise) If you are not losing then…

  • I just wanted to weigh in with some useful information with regards to the quality of the foods we eat.
