  • I guess I was mistaken, thanks for the information and letting me know.
  • Change your activity level in your settings from Sedentary to Active and let me know if your calories don't adjust for the changes. There are threats on this at least there was years and years ago.
  • Vegetables, if I use some oil cooking them I will track that but not like 2 cups of broccoli
  • You set this up in MFP when you choose your activity level and time spent working out it makes calorie adjustments for you to accommodate the data entered. Trackers are more for fun and to meet markers, I would just choose one to follow, wouldn't eat back the calories also.
  • You setup your calorie expenditure within MFP, so active lightly active etc. I wouldn't eat back the calories from any tracker as the site is already supposed to set your calories based on your activity level selected.
  • Mutant has a sale on now ... free shirt and BCAA's when you spend $75 ... they might still have buy 2 get 25% off buy 3 get 35% off also. Also Canadian company, (hi from Canada btw). As for supplements, I think allot are a waste of money protein is food not really a supplement to me. D3 Fish Oil Those are all I need,…
  • Could be allot of water which happens when ppl move to Keto for example... could of had your period which can be upwards of 10lbs in water weight thats stored shortly before your period. Lots of factors, just keep going and don't expect to see results in the mirror for 3-4 months.
  • Hey, Since your pregnant you should ask your OB about your weight and not online. They have access to your blood work no one here does... so you'll just get allot of guesses and suggestions based on personal experience that might not be applicable to you. Allot of ppl just google answers and then write what they read in…
  • I have colitis but not as bad as you guys jesus!! (really sorry it went that far for both of you, I'm very thankful I haven't had to do surgery) I've tried to find data on the nutritional absorption loss due to our disease and can never find any real information on it. No one really knows how much we lose out of what we…
  • I've had both, I prefer the Fitbit. Apple watch dies after about a year + 1 month or an update.... wifes did the same thing we had Gen1's. Just runs like *kitten* and slows down and stops working all together more or less and Apple won't do *kitten* even though it happens with an update... it's "out of warranty" ... I know…
  • None of them work for the purpose you're looking for. Not 1, there are so many products out there but legit not one works for test raise that would equate muscle gains. Most claim to increase test but they actually increase sperm count and correlate it to testosterone increase. Talk to your doctor about TRT
  • Look into FoodMAPS and Vertical diet to help with gut health.
  • Look up Monster Mash, vertical diet also might be something good for you to check out. For working out you just have to start and find what is fun, check out any 5x5 program out there to get you started. Lots of newbie gains to be made. You have to do your own research and not just ask ppl what to do to workout, this is me…
  • Diet and lifting weights
  • Not relevant to bulking but regarding the question to no more gyms and being unable to train. I've reduced calories further as I will not have that caloric burn daily anymore and am more dialed in on diet until training can start again.
  • umm you won't see anything until the 3-4 month mark... this is a marathon not a sprint
  • Yes, I lost 98lbs without doing a lick of cardio and only using weights. At 3 months you start to see some changes like how you see more muscle, that's because the fats going away and the muscles are getting bigger. I wouldn't worry about the scale so much more so how you look as it can become an obsession the progress is…
  • I noticed nothing at all also, have taken it on and off for like 6 years. Some people are "non responders" though so... and there is no way to tell if you are or aren't.
  • No one on here is an expert (outside of self proclaimed ones... and even if they are.. why they have so much time and helping ppl for free if it's what they get paid to do?), hire someone or go see a nutritionist. As for the binging ... you control that so you can stop yourself, not saying it's easy but it is within your…
  • Six star is known as "*kitten* star" it's cheap for a reason. Go ahead and use it up since you don't want to return it. I like Mutant cause they're Canadian and honestly it tastes the best. Costco has the best value for $ protein ... doesn't taste the greatest but it gets the job done. I usually buy one for flavor as like…
  • Congratulations, all this stuff is stuff to discuss with your OB though. Everyone is different, you haven't even done your blood work doc always knows best apposed to opinions/ personal experiences as everyone is different. If it helps though... my wife lost weight during pregnancy and didn't gain allot, doc advised that…
  • Being a morning person, is just a term that ppl use it's not a real thing (IMO). If you want to workout early just go to bed earlier and wake up earlier, you adjust your sleep schedule so if you require 8hrs of sleep to feel good go to bed at 8PM and then wake up at 4AM and then go workout before work. You adjust it, more…
  • Go up and down the stairs if you have some Body weight squats
  • After my large weight loss (173lbs) I stopped because I was always cold my goal was to lost 175lbs but like didn't care cause I was cold all the time. I stayed in maintence for months and then got tired of ppl telling me I was to skinny, so I went from being called fat to being called skinny. Then a long story goes on…
  • I'm curious how you guys come up with your numbers compared to using the site calculator. IE the site tells me to eat 1650 calories to lose 2lbs a week but I can barely make my protein requirements alone on 1650. What does someone use (outside of personal XP) to gauge.
  • Metamucil unflavored (it still has an orange taste to it), add it to shakes it's great for you in general! Just google "health benefits of metamucil"
  • Would like to second this, the Game Changers is a movie not really a documentary there are lots of articles out now that debunk everything they go on about. The information they choose to show is all cherry picked data. Nate lost allot before he won so to say he won cause he was vegan what about his 9 previous losses?…
  • Your forearms are like the same size as your biceps for *kitten* sakes! Nice job man
  • Not on here but lots of people out there you can hire, allot on here are self proclaimed experts when they're not ... and just use their own experience as creditable scientific evidence for being successful. This is the type of person you actually don't want advice from at all ..cause they know everything... yet nothing at…
