I think she's looking for advice on logging sushi... no? I would just log generic and overestimate if your options are limited.

Yes.

Does it say you should eat 1,563 calories a day with your activity and a deficit (i.e., 20%) factored in? If you put in all of your information with the correct activity level, and choose a 20% deficit from TDEE, the idea is that you eat that amount of calories EVERY day because your exercise calories have been figured…

Couldn't have said it better myself. I HATE my thighs. Even though I've lost a considerable amount of weight, the way they look now just makes me hate them even more. They're around 22" at the largest part, but flabby and gross at the top. Now that I'm focused on toning and strength training, hopefully they improve.

Currently experiencing this now- ESP in the lower tummy. It'll go away though... I hope :)

QFT. Eat what you want.

That website tells me that my 2mi run yesterday burned 270 calories, when in reality, my HRM (Polar FT4) told me I burned 464. I am a beginner and run at a slow pace, so maybe it's more accurate for experienced runners than people like me.

Senior here- heading to grad school in the fall. Feel free to add!

After losing 139lbs (for a lot of which, I ate around 1200-1400 calories), I now eat ~1800 calories on a typical day and I'm still losing. Eat more, especially if you're working out more!

Bump.

I'm 5'9 and I've lost a total of 139lbs. In this pic, about 135 lost.

^Same as above, I donated all of mine as soon as they were too big on me. I'll never wear them again. BUT- keep one pair! At your biggest size. You'll want it when you reach goal :)

I weigh [almost] every morning and log every one of my weigh-ins. I like to see the changes!

How close are you to your goal weight? I have found that as I got closer, i had to start eating more (went from a 20% reduction to a 10% reduction). If you're still pretty far, you could try out a 15% and see if it works! Give anything you try a few weeks before you decide if it's working or not. If you put your stats into…

Same type of thing recently happened to me- I gained a couple of pounds while I was out of the country but once I got back the weight basically fell off. I actually reached goal when I came back! When I was in the Dominican Republic, we ate a LOT of carbs, and I ate a lot more than I typically would here at home. I was…

Win.

Eat more protein. MFP sets it too low.

After losing 136 pounds, I have this. But when I flex my abs, it tightens up in the middle and kind of shrivels up. It's gross. I hate it. But I'm healthy. Loose skin sucks, but it's worth it.

Love this.

Bump! Also looking into getting a bike.

I'm a vegetarian and I eat eggs, egg whites, greek yogurt, peanut butter, almond butter, brussel sprouts, cheese, cottage cheese, beans, protein bars (I like Balance brand), and protein powder. My diet is usually 40% carbs, 30% fat, 30% protein. I get enough.

This x1000000

Or you could use pizza sauce which has about the same amount of calories as ketchup. I do pretty much the same thing but I use a wheat wrap, toast it in the oven, then pizza sauce, veggies, & cheese.

We've all had days like that. You didn't demolish anything. It's how you pick yourself back up from the bad days that shows your true colors! Tomorrow's a new day- just look at everything you've put in so far. Make sure it's worth it in the end!

I'm a vegetarian too! I usually eat cottage cheese with either pineapple or a tablespoon of strawberry/blackberry preserves. Or I'll mix in a tablespoon of almond butter / peanut butter / nutella. Or I'll mix it with tomato sauce and eat with pasta/veggies- it makes it really creamy and delicious!

That's the one I have as well and agree- it works great.

Down to my last 6! Might lower my goal once I get there though...

Congrats, that's exciting!

Agree with what a few others have said-- lower stomach and upper thighs -_-
