  • I would def wear a heart rate monitor so you have a true estimate of the calories that you are burning.
  • Yes, I did the test and that is where I got the number from. I was just trying to figure out if 1340 is my BMR and I burn about 650 calories a day in exercise, if only eating a total 1200 or 1300 calories would be okay
  • It could actually be a good thing to not eat before morning cardio. If you do cardio on an empty stomach , first thing in the morning, your body will be burning more fat, since you have metabolized your food through sleeping.

The basics consist of this......every meal should have a complex card, lean protein, healthy fat, and fiborous vegetable. Without being…
  • Most people on clean-eating diets eat anywhere from 6-10 eggs. However, I would not sugges that those all be whole eggs. I would use egg whites like the egg white egg beaters you can purchase at the store. So, if you are going to have six eggs, use 1 or 2 whole eggs and then 4 egg whites. This will save you on the calories…
  • Yes, you should force yourself to eat more. You do not want your body to go into starvation mode. The best thing to do is choose higher calorie foods that still follow a healthy diet. Add in a grilled chicken breast, a protein shake, or an apple. Also, whole natural almonds are a great snack that are high in calories and…
