I'm walking 5+ miles daily plus volleyball, weight lifting, or running. I have my fitbit on 24/7, which is why I figure I'm getting pretty accurate measurements. but the theory that I'm eating at maintenance/surplus makes the most sense, so thank you!

actually, i have been tracking my calories for over a year. I am set at a daily net of 1350 but with my daily activity i will end up eating anywhere from 1800-2000 total. my carb intake percentage is around 50% daily and fats and proteins vary from 20-30%.

if you use unsweetened almond milk, the whole recipe comes out to 294 calories with 14 g of protein! add about 18 g of pb2 as topping and another tbs of blueberry preserves, and its 391 total calories and 20 g of protein.

this recipe is seriously dangerous. i've made it every day for the past week and it fills me up plus it can be made healthy! single serving pancakes 1/4 cup flour (1/3 cup if not using flax and wheat germ!) 1 tbs wheat germ 1 tbs ground flax 1/4 tsp baking soda 1/2 tsp baking powder 1/4 tsp cinnamon 1 egg 1/4 cup milk 1/2…

17 years, female, 5'6, 127 lbs.. the only reason i'm looking to lose the last 7 lbs is because its body fat.. i'm okay being the same weight if i knew it were muscle! i run 5 days a week, and weight train 2-3 days a week. i'm frustrated that although i've lost 8 lbs already i haven't seen any muscle definition or physical…

sorry typo.. it was 1 lb/week!

i didn't read the other responses, so i'm sorry if i'm repeating info... depending on what time and how much you've eaten/expelled since your last weigh-in, your weight could fluctuate up to 5 lbs! in addition, i've heard that water weight can add up to another 3 lbs. new runners/athletes-in-training often experience an…

cook in some fresh blueberries.. top with some healthy granola- stir to soften it, or leave it at the top for crunch! seasonally i like to find trader joe's pumpkin butter and add a spoonful of that. sugar-free maple breakfast syrup if you're watching calories!

try to get western bagel's "perfect 10" bagel! 10g carbs, 18g PROTEIN, and only 140 for a pretty decently sized bagel! there's lots of grains in there too. the only thing is that the lack of carbs makes the texture very spongy, almost as if it were just semi-cooked dough. however, the low cal count allows for plenty of…

apple snack sticks, honey wheat pretzel sticks, pumpkin butter!

obviously you need to make it clear to your mom that you're really striving to make drastic diet changes and although you appreciate her desire to feed you and give you unhealthy treats, it's really making it difficult for you to accomplish your goals. let her know that you recognize that she isnt deliberately trying to…

first thanks to everyone for replying! seriously the first thing you said describes me every day, and as much as i feel good because i can control what i'm eating, its definitely not good that i've become so dependent on my intake for happiness.. :p how did you just get over your counting though?! do you still eat junk…

okay thank you!

the original go lean cereal! for a whole cup there's 13 g of protein and only 6 g of sugar. and although this next one's not low sugar, i always mix a cup of go lean with a cup of that organic "lucky charms" style cereal to add flavor- super yummy!

i generally avoid diets that focus on cutting out a certain food group, because i've seen and heard that although your body will lose the weight on the diet, it will be gained back and then some after the food is reintroduced. ketosis may occur while you aren't eating carbs, but as soon as you start eating carbs again i'd…

YOU GOT THIS GIRL! play some dance-y music to get yourself active, give your little one a treat or activity to keep him occupied, and do what you have to do! you will feel SO much better seeing your clean house and having that accomplished feeling seeing that all your work paid off (:
