Beautiful way to burn some calories!!

Wow what a transformation! You look amazing!! Congratulations!

I agree with this too he was just using the 10% as an example and if course if you have more than 15 pounds to lose you will lose quite a bit more and more quickly then those that don't have as much to lose.

I think that is totally up to you!

Good for you!! Great progress and a FANTASTIC attitude!!

So great WTG!!

Great news!! Congrats and thanks for sharing!!

Did you do a reset or go straight to TDEE -15%?

Thanks for all the input! It is such a new way of thinking and requires some getting used to but based on how I feel I like it. I still struggle to eat all my calories, like today I burned 650 on my workout so I just couldn't get there, but I am trying!

Ok now I am really confused because I thought the number already considered excercise in?!? I swear I am not dumb but this is not computing for me :laugh:

Ok here is is: BMR - 1512 TDEE - 2079 -15% - 1767 Right now my daily goal is set at 1767. Today I logged 286 excercise calories so my calorie amount went up. I just ignore those extra calories and eat to 1767, right?

Yep clear. But when you add your excercise calories to your log it increases your net so I guess you just ignore that or don't log them.

Today is a new day! Don't torture yourself with shame just start again and leave yesterday behind :flowerforyou:

Add me too :flowerforyou:

SO great to read this!

So great!!

I measured today and have a pair of shorts that I will keep trying on to judge success. I will weigh July 1st!!

Good for you!! Shopping success and a great outfit go a LONG way!!

What type/brand of shakes do you guys drink?

I hope so because I feel so weird shoving in food when I am not hungry at all!!

Oh my is right :noway:

Yes!! I almost feel guilty!!

I look tiny...:laugh: I am 5'8 and want to lose about 15 pounds! Honestly if I could just get all of it to not jiggle I would be SO happy and wouldn't care what I weighed!! I will get full fat yogurt next time and almond butter too!! On a postive note I went clothes shopping today and bought 2 super cute dresses 1 size…

Hi!! I am SOooooooooo scared to be doing this but want to get this done right and for good! I can't believe how hard it is for me to eat that many calories...I am FULL. I go to vegas in a few weeks so if I spike 8 lbs I may lose it :laugh: I have also been quite trained by my nutritionist to be below 40G's of carbs and…

WTG!!! :flowerforyou: Just what I needed to read as I struggle to eat my calories tonight!!!

Thanks! This is very strange to me because I truly am full right now and I still need about 350 calories...I am over in my carbs and sugar because I was on the road today and ate 2 protein bars ...so what do I eat with that many calories? This will definately take some getting used to!

So today my excercise burn was 196 and my BMR is 1607 so I have to NET 1803, right?

Thanks for all the iput I do appreciate it!! I am going tp have my hubby hide the scale!

Ok so the TDEE is the number at the bottom where you consider your activity right? When you say do not eat below your BMR that is the number they give you before excercise right? Do you watch your fat and carbs? Do you just trust this or do you wear a heart rate monitor? Do you work out everyday or take days off? Sorry for…
