you do, however, make the duck face with the best of them ;)

Dietary fat does NOT lend to heart disease. Being fat does. :) Read this: http://www.bodyrecomposition.com/fat-loss/how-we-get-fat.html

Read this: http://www.bodyrecomposition.com/fat-loss/how-we-get-fat.html As others have said: Slight calorie deficit, 40% carbs, 30% fat, 30% protein. + TIME

So do the 8 appendages on an octopus count as 8 legs or 0? Worst food on the planet: Centipedes LOL

What is your RDA?

This! I just did a two day trip. I was over 150 cal one day and 75 another and I ate good. :D

Yes. You can either set up your goal to be your Goal Weight TDEE at sedentary, the add and eat your exercise calories. But if you exercise regularly its just better to not worry about eating back calories. I still log my lifting, I just put that it burned 1 calorie. I was thinking of setting my goal to 1860 but if i do…

Why don't you up 100 calories a day? When you make the jump give it 4 weeks to regulate. Put away the scale. You will notice after about 1-2 weeks your insanity routine gets easier, you will have BOUNDS more energy. Then the weight loss should follow. Remember that if you set your goal to your TDEE that you DO NOT eat…

Also increase your fat intake. I just read an article about people who have poor insulin tolerance doing well on a lower carb, higher fat intake. Your are eating almost as many carbs as I do on a 2500 calorie diet.

That is normal. Give it 4 weeks. Any change in measurements? Unless you ate 7000 calories over maintenance then you didn't gain fat.

I like Muscle Milk. They taste good and are an easy way to get calories and protein with out a lot of sugar

It would help to open your diary so people can see what you have been doing.

THIS ^^^^ Everyone in this thread should read this: http://www.bodyrecomposition.com/fat-loss/set-points-settling-points-and-bodyweight-regulation-part-1.html "In any case, perhaps the classic study in this regards is the Minnesota semi-starvation study, a 6 month study undertaken during the mid 20th century where a number…

Eat eggs, nuts, and full fat versions of everything. Believe me, once you kick start your metabolism you will not have to worry about filling calories. I am routinely 50-100 OVER my 2550, but I am still losing weight.

Yes it is. Unless you 5' and weigh 98 lbs, your body needs more than 1200 calories just to operate, let alone fuel your workouts. Signed, Losing weight and inches at 2550 calories a day.

Anyone in this thread that is tired of trying to adhere to a made up number, stalls in their weight loss, or feels tired/hungry all the time shoot me a message. I will help you out. You don't have to starve yourself to lose.

The assumtion that its good for ypu to eat at a massive deficit for a long period of time.

Make it a goal to add 100 calories a week from good sources. Go slow if you have to. Your metabolism is slowimg way down.

Really bad advice. Especially with her activity level. Her bmr is probably higher than 1500.

What is your activity level? If you pm me i can help. Writing this out on a tablet isnt going to work! :-)

I would make sure your carbs are no more than 40% , 30 % protien and 30% fat. I would try to eat less processed food and a little better snacks. Try to get ypur macros (carbs, fat, protien) inline and give it time. You need 4-6 weeks to let ypur body adjust. Where are ypur inches tat you gained at? Put the scale away for…

No, walking is fine. It just sounded like ypu were doing TONS of exercise. Are you hungry all the time?

I didnt mean to insult. I just saw a lot of icecream and things for snacks. Thats fine as long as its around 20% or less of your calories. When was the last time you had a rest day?

As i edited, ypu are eaying tons of junk, you are over your Macros every day as well. What is your exercise routine? Plus, unless ypu 7500 calories OVER ypur maintenence levels you didnt gain fat.

How many pounds?Ypu are over your Macros every day. You are eating tons of junk.

This is close but not quite correct. You need to compute one more number once you know your BMR, and that is your TDEE (total daily energy expenditure), use the tools at fat2fitradio.com/tools to help. Once you have this number you can figure a 15% - 20% deficit from there. Another way is to eat at your goal weigt's TDEE?…

If anything you probably need to be increasing calories... especially if you aren't eating exercise calories. Feed the machine!

Isn't it great!? I love the energy.Its amazing what happens when you put gas in the tank

If you live in the NE we had an abnormally warm winter. Great for doing stuff, not so great for killing off nasty bugs. Everyone I know has been sick lately.

I see what you did there. :) He is right...in a WAY. When you are in a calorie deficit, it really is about calories in vs calories out. When you are maintaining then you have to be a little more careful as carbs are burned first, and dietary fat is stored. Eat too many carbs and the body will never burn the fat you eat.…
