My tested RMR is 1454. Something seems off.

Oh, I know nothing about the Cunningham formula. Its just what I selected on scoobysworkshop. But looks like I'm using Katch on the excel now. Sorry if i sound stupid, but what do you mean by inflated? I log all my exercise in my fitbit. MFP is just for what I eat. I'm not sure that the HRM is accurate after looking at…

@HEYBALES: I actually used the Cunningham formula as I found it to be the most generous based on body fat. On both calculations I chose sedentary - no exercise, as I plan to add my exercise calories in as I earn them. Fitbit might not base BMR on body fat, so it might be a bit inaccurate. My Miffin BMR is 1435, and my…

I should also mention I'm 5"0 with a lot of body fat, so that's why my calories are lower than most peoples. And I have a thyroid issue so that's why I prefer to track my exercise calories accurately.

The problem is I don't know which calorie goal will work for me. I've done high & low calories and gained weight. Same with the almost perfect macros nrolfw gave me. By no means am I sedentary either. I know how to manage my thyroid. The meds seem to be normalising it.. My main issue is that, when on nrolfw I gained all…

Yeah levothyroxine. I know, they're crap, but the doctors over here won't give me anything else... :-/

Great teeth, beautiful smile!

Consider yourself lucky. I lost 2lbs and a grand total of one inch - so all my weight loss seems to be from muscle... :(

Those are phenomenal results!!

I might be starting wednesday or thursday so we can be accountability buddies if ya want!

I'm starting soon! My BMI is 32 and i'm 42% fat - so yeah im obese! Also get sick after intense workouts so ill be complaining a lot!

Move on. Whether its to do with his family or not. HE is the one with the problem. I have a problem with the way he compared you to other girls and that he said he "wants to check you out like he does them". If you're in a relationship you shouldn't be made feel this **** about yourself! He could have told you he was…

^ Recommended reading! Also Lauren you look amazing!

I think i did this once. But don't remember if i actually sent it 'cause i was too drunk! :P

Tell him. I know its hard. I have bad social anxiety so i know how you feel. I even have the added bonus of being the type of girl a guy would "take for the team". (Thankfully my boyfriend is half blind so doesn't see it that way.) To most people here it sounds pathetic and immature, and i get that, Most of them don't…

I love this thread too much to be considered normal!

I'm in love with your dog!

Chihuahua/Japanese Spitz mix. Here's my baby. Serious attitude problem tho'!: https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/376429_501803066497372_1335882222_n.jpg

Binge? BINGE?!! I've been known to eat 6000 calories - THATS a binge. What you all had was like adding dessert when you usually only have dinner.

Oh that's brilliant to hear. I'm seeing a lot of good reviews so far. I just started my prep so have a while to go yet. I'm the same as you. Restricting causes me to binge like crazy. Paul does have a point. Diets are bad for some of us!

I'm starting my preparation week tomorrow. I'm a huge binger and dieting jeopardises that! I'm going to add you so we can share experiences. There's a facebook group for people doing it so if you want the link, pm me. He's really good for answering peoples questions on his own facebook & twitter too.

I'm following this as i have a big binge problem! I listen to the CD, drink water and never skip the CD or mirror exercises. Though conscious eatings a big problem for me - i mean, I've every intention to but i just stuff my face like the foods going to evaporate any second. Sometimes i wish it did... :-/ How are you…

Insult his penis size! Even if its not tiny - he'll believe you if you say it is!

If this is the case, why not use blue food dye on everything? Cheaper than going out buying plates!

^ This. You already wasted time on him. Thank God you didn't waste your money on him! But I'd complain and demand the gym make it up to you!

I just read over it and imagined a man saying that in real life. NOW it sounds *kitten*-holey!!

It does sound a little harsh, but i wouldn't take offense. If you look through this thread, everyone has different opinions. Someone else could make the exact same comment and change the order of the girls.

I like this thread and the replies! I'm very like the one on the right, bar the fact my stomach is bigger and resembles a third boob!

A guys weight means nothing to me! Its all about the face. True story.
