  • Thanks everyone for the responses. To follow up, I ate ALL of the chicken and it was an incredibly delicious, fantastic, glorious meal. I have yet to grow any chicken wings and will follow up again the morning. On a serious note, to clarify it was 15.5oz of chicken. A lot of chicken!! 89g of protein. I'll probably start…

  • Thanks for the responses everyone. Really great information. My BMR is correct and I'm not overeating. Maybe I should focus on the nutritional value in my food. I've been eating chips quite often and white bread instead of wheat. But I've been under my calorie goal everyday eating normal and cutting portions. Am I correct…
    in 2nd week I haven't lost weight? Lifting and dieting question Comment by Badsumbeech August 2014
  • I feel like I've been very discipline in regards to accuracy. I bought a digital weigh scale. No cheat days or meals which hurts me mentally. I feel like I want to deep fry some catfish for lunch now!! I do log everything. Maybe I'll back some calories off. I've been going to the gym pretty much 5 days a week working out…

  • Thanks Eric and Amy. It sounds like the consensus is that I need to up my caloric intake. That's good news! I can eat more. I've been working on my nutrition. I'm trying to stick to 50%, 20%, 30%. Would you both recommend that I continue lifting and gaining muscle instead of just getting on a tight diet and losing a steady…

  • You're totally right Neke. That is exactly how you bulk up. I'm just not sure if I want to bulk up yet. I wanted to find the quickest way to looking better. That was losing weight. It seems like weights take longer to see results. I figured I could lose all the weight first, look better, and bulk up after I've lost the…

  • Thanks for responding WBB55, FitnessPal has me calculated to intake 1960 calories a day and I normally have 200-300 left over. Some days 50-60 calories remaining. So really I'm intaking, on average, around 1600-1700 calories a day. I measure meats and fruits in oz on a digital scale for accuracy. I'm working with a trainer…

  • I appreciate the advice WBB55. I think I've been measuring calories pretty accurately for the most part, but I'm taking your recommendation in using a digital scale. I'm picking one up first thing tomorrow.
