My abs get trained when I do my squats, deadlifts and such. I hardly do specific ab work.

I weigh every morning, my FitBit Aria scale syncs it automatically to my account, and I check trendweight.com every now and then to see the general line.

Just use a whole lot of vegetables, with just a beat of meat and potatoes/rice/whatever. Have you seen a spiraliser? You can make sort of noodles/spaghetti from stuff like zucchini, very handy.

Yes, do not go below BMR

peanut butter or ice cream. I like adding either of those in my smoothies if I need more calories

Focus on short term goals, make it a goal this week to try some new veggies and fruits. Try different methods of preparing, or sneak some veggies in things like pasta sauce. Or make a big soup.

2 weeks is nothing, you just lost some water weight. I don't know portions, but it seems you aren't eating that much, and also not so much nutrient dense foods. Do the milk and biscuits in the morning give you enough energy? Just meat at lunch? A salad for dinner?

Waking up at 2-3 am is a sign you need more food

No bread? No thanks

You are quite active, so you might need a bit more calories than 1600. And congrats on the journey so far to become healthier

Eyes on own plate. I don't judge what anyone is eating, it is their choice. If they want eating tips, they can come to me.

Add more muscle, that will let you burn fat quicker and makes everything look tight.

Find the right store. I found some great ones in a jeans store, bit more expensive, but they fit perfectly. And I often wear leggings, jeggings and workout/yoga pants.

Peanut butter, nuts, fullfat everything. Add icecream to your smoothies.

Just set a good calorie goal for everday. Do you see yourself doing this for the rest of your life?

Skip the bread, ask for extra veggies and get the sauce on the side. And just enjoy and have fun! It is just one meal, that will not make a difference long term.

Super tips here ^^

First doctor, then add a bit more calories and possibly more carbs. I am slowly losing BF% on around 2500 calories (recomp), and I noticed I get very tired when my carbs are too low on workdays.

First check with your doctor that you don't have thyroid issues or something. Then start tracking every morsel that you eat and drink, figure out how much you need and start adjusting.

It's more about BF%, not just BMI. I think it usually cuts out when you hit 15% or lower with BF

Lots of reps dont help, lift heavy.

Make sure you eat enough during the day

Oh dear.. No, just no!

It can be true if it adds in your BMR aswell.

I go right after work, have my gymbag in the car, and just drive there. Sometimes I'm just in there for 15 minutes, but I'm building the habit

It's pasteurized, so it's okay to drink. I actually know a fitness model who recommends this to easily get more protein, she gets a tub of that stuff and puts in in/on everything, because it's tasteless.

No, they are a waste of money and potentionally dangerous.

lift weights, add more peanut butter, full-fat milk/yoghurt and ice cream.

Because they set their goal for maximum weightloss (even though that's often not healthy) and that's the lowest MFP is willing to go.

Am I reading this correctly that you only eat 600 calories a day?
