why spend any money at all. just cut your calories. If you really want to work out. try some sprinting for a 10-20 minutes or run some lines 2-3 times a week. These video workouts are designed to only to take your money. They come out with new ones all the time and its always the same people who buy them.

TDEE if your losing weight when you want to be gaining eat more. if your gaining weight and you want to be losing, eat less. No fancy machine is needed just an estimate and a couple of weeks to see if the estimate was accurate. this It really is simpler. I don’t know why people bother with anything else. edit-for spelling

and it will take time, its not going to happen in 6-12 weeks.

nerd fitness has an article on the "study" that concluded we need 8 glasses of water per day. turns out it was made up. Your body process all sorts of things when you eat, if theres water in it, (as there is in most food) it counts. Coffee counts most everything we think of that is liquid counts. If you think your…

i adjust my calories. Spread it out to make it easier. But I either eat them or reduce depending on what happened. I like to go by the week, not the day so isay spread them out if your goal is to gain some mass eat.

i dont worry about it they always end up eating when they get hungry, heck saves money

kind of sucks how you can get so many opinions as to what may or may not work for you. Some contradictory to each other. Makes it hard to figure out. Google alan aragon, lyle mcdonald, and Dr. Layne Norton. They all of books and websites that will help.

dang set that guilt down and walk away. you lost your weight your eating so as to not gain weight, eat and enjoy.

I eat the same calories day in and day out. I estimate my needs and go from there. The problem with eating your calories back is how do you know how many you burned. Everything I have read suggests we over estimate the calories we burn and the machines are flat out wrong. Once you have an estimate work with that to…

dont track enjoy your trip

I am using measurements and weight to tell me when to cut, i started mine after neat two years of cutting. I would have prefered to start at a lower BF but i was ready to change. I figure when my waist hits 36.5 ill start my cut. So far ive put on 6 lbs since end of november. Trying to do it slowly. Good luck

your at risk for that anyway. I have yet to see someone eat themeselves into immortality.

i think it was layne norton that said in one of his videos that its a balance between all the fuel sources your body can use. It doenst just use one then move to the others it takes in energy from all sources in some type of ratio and as they deplete it leans heavier on the energy left. Something like that.

for me a bout a year and half

More of reminder of how good we have it and how poor the rest of the world has it. we worry about eating enough calories to shape our bodies how we want. They worry about making sure they eat enough to not die. Throw out food in the face of this is disgusting. I am reminded of a story my padre told me while working to feed…

ditto so tired of the whole thing really just eat the fricking egg or dont.

is not a big secret it just goes by a different name. overeating.

try reverse dieting. once you have stabilized your weight add in a 50-100 calories every 2 weeks and see if you gain. Dr. Layne Norton you tube biolayne has some interesting vids on reverse dieting and metabolic adaptation. You can work your way back up. I am currently losing weight on more calories. I am trying to gain…

I rarely eat vegees or fruit and I am fine and over 45. I've always hated them. multi vitamin with minerals. I only started doing that in the last month or so. Does that mean I never eat them of course not but they are absolutely not on my meal plan ever. When I do its a can of corn or green beans. they're over rated we do…

after i lost weight my blood pressure and cholesterol went down. But my good cholesterol went up. I didnt tell the doc that I eat about 4 dozen eggs a month. Maybe it was the weight loss. But I havent come across any studies that say weight loss increases good cholesterol i've only seen some that say it can lower bad…

when you get to your 30s take the meds they offer. Maybe by the time your there they will have a way to raise the good stuff too. I wouldn't worry to much about it. It all ends the same. you said you eat healthy does that mean you exclude foods that are high in cholesterol?

so is my wife, love beans and rice :)

Try Rice and Beans I've read somewhere you the two togther provide alot of the protein you need. I dont eat any meat on fridays so I supliment with whey and rice and beans. change up the beans, I like pinto and black beans. You might want to try red meat once in a while to help with the anemic issue. Might help
