depends on how you're calculating your deficit. you should take it into account while calculating your activity level to find out how much you should eat. if you're eating 1200 + exercise calories, then yes, you should find a way to estimate how much you burn. if you're doing TDEE-15/20%, you should consider your work…

She said she's netting 1600, eating 1750. The OP hasn't said anything that could suggest they're a hypocondriac?????' I honestly don't know where you got that. A doctor told them to eat more, they should eat more. Period.

If you started a new exercise program, it could be water retention. Give yourself a month, don't weigh yourself, and if then you see that you have mantained those 6 extra pounds or gained a bit more, then consult your dietician. Give your body time to adjust to a new routine. 1700 isn't high, like some people here are…

oh you are wrong you are very very very wrong i don't normally binge, and when it does happen, it's always within my calorie allowance. i ate 1200 or less consistently for 6 months while exercising religiously 5 times a week, doing strength and cardio, plus walking A LOT. there was DEFINITELY a huge deficit going. even if…

[strums guitar] some people have/are recovering from eating disorders and it's really hard for them to eat much [strums guitar]

why would she need a 750 deficit though? pushing it to lose 1.5 lbs weekly is quite a bad idea when you haven't got much to lose. it'd be better to sick to a smaller deficit and aiming for 0.5 lbs/week instead!!
-
I don't, but because I do TDEE-20% (or I'm trying to, at least) so my activity is already accounted for in my allowance. I do track it so I can organize my workouts and have some idea of how much I'm burning, but I don't change my food intake around my workouts. I tend to eat a bit less if I haven't been working out but…

Not having intercourse is not a bad thing, though. There is such thing as being asexual, and it's a very valid and very common sexuality. I'm not saying it's your case, I'm just saying it's possible to have a healthy relationship with a person without having sex.

I work out at least an hour at least 5 times a week and I was eating 1200 when i started, upped it to 1500 two months ago and now I'm starting to increase my way up to 2000 daily. Currently trying to eat 1750. I started out at 178 I think and I'm between 135 and 138 now, hoping to get down to 120-125. I'm 5'5". If you're…

My weight varies from 135 to 139. my BF% IS 20.2 according to the military test from the site that's given in the IPOARM post but it seems kind of inaccurate in my opinion. I want to weight 121, but if I see that I'm skinny at 125 or 127 or whatever then I'm not going to go crazy obsessing over a number. I just want to be…

I'm not taking any supplements, should I? I mean, I drink protein shakes because I lead a mostly vegetarian life (meat is expensive and I can't afford it, and I don't like it much to begin with) and I find it really hard to meet my goals with just eggs and beans but I don't really focus on fat or carb intake? I try to keep…

Do you mean 100 more calories a day or 100 more weekly? I normally switch it up and eat 1500 some days, 1300 others, 1700 the next, so I guess it wouldn't be too hard to increase by 100.
-
i'm not sure what those classes consist of but you could google an estimate of calories burned and then add it to the database. i pole dance and pole dancing wasn't an exercise here until i added it to the list there are a lot of good sites that have this kind of info! google calories burned during ______ and you should…

surprisingly, the diet isn't bad for you you don't eat anything unhealthy, and you don't starve i did it twice while i was in high school and lost about 15 pounds in total. i did end up gaining it back in the course of two months, but because i didn't keep up with a healthy lifestyle and it was my 18th birthday and my hs…

SW: 139.5 GW: 121 i don't think i'll be able to lose the 18 pounds but i'll be happy if i manage to lose something between 10-15!

if you've just started exercising, it could be just water weight that your muscle is holding on to. it happens to everyone. and two pounds is really not that much, especially if you lost 14 in 4 weeks. relax, lower your sodium and keep up drinking water and exercising and you'll see it drop in a couple of days.

my BMR is only 1440, so eating 1200 while not exercising i was only at a 200 daily calorie deficit. that's why my doctor said it was okay for me to eat that amount. back before i started losing weight i used to eat about 2000 or and kept gaining weight, so 1200 isn't a crazy change or anything. i understand that i might…

i started pole dancing on friday and i've never been this sore in my life. it's so good! i could definitely feel all my muscles working at the same time and it was so much fun! granted, it's really hard and i still can barely swing around the pole but it's really good i definitely recommend it

yo noto algo de diferencia entre mi alimentacion de antes y "ahora" principalmente porque ahora me tomo el tiempo de pensar en que comer y no como patitas de pollo con pure todos los dias tambien me obligue a comer mas verduras, aunque como casi siempre las mismas y aprendi a que me gusten cosas que antes me daban paja y…

i was very 'irregular' for years (since puberty and until very recently) and it not only slowed down my weight loss but it made me feel really bad about my body because i felt bloated all the time i used to weigh myself every day, regardless, and feel bad whenever the number hadn't gone down. i started taking a supplement…
