WEIGH IN WEDNESDAY! Had a great week. I have a goal of getting to 10K steps each day, and finishing the day under points. It's not always something I achieve, but it's something that I aim for. I use my exercise calories for extra food. One of the days I did so much exercise that I ended up eating around 2,500 calories.…

My name is Pam, and I am a 49 yo Female, 5'8". I love exercise - swimming, walking, hiking at the moment. I want to start running again once I lose some weight! Start Weight (4/13/22): 194.3 pounds End April Goal Weight: 191 pounds End May Goal Weight: 185 pounds End June Goal Weight: 179 pounds End July Goal Weight: 173…

For me 6-9 eggs a day seems ok. We go through about 4.5 dozen in a week with a 4 person family so we eat a lot but not as much as you. Still, I think eggs are awesome, I've always eaten a lot and I am in great health.

I don't buy into the idea that it is harder to lose weight after 40... it is just the same.. it's calories in vs calories out no matter what age you are.

You may be over thinking is... it's all calories.. count it. But yes, it is a good idea to exercise to earn more calories.

anyone?:smile:

I can't eat things that are too sweet, makes me feel ill.. .and that was always the case, not only now.

These are both fantastic!!!

I don't find this bad at all. Maybe having that double cheeseburger is helping keep you on track. You could try having the smaller cheeseburger and see if it works, but I don't think that people need to stick to typically healthy foods 100%. After all, the world is not filled with 100% typically healthy food. Give yourself…

sounds great!

I'd be interested in this too.. but something I would like to suggest is roasted cauliflower and zucchini - salt, pepper, bit of oil, curry powder on 400 F in the oven for 30 mins or so... yum! Cucumber, zucchini and celery are all super low in calories.

wow!

Thank you ladies!! It will be great to do this together!

:)

yeah, I think that I must be... but I have been following the plan. Also, my first weigh in was just before my period and at the end of the day so I just assumed that added a couple of pounds.

Thanks everyone for your support. Honestly, I am so happy to be able to discuss this, and to have others that understand. Before I have always been on my own fighting this yoyo battle, but it is great to be in this group. Thank you for the support!!

Yes it is.. so I am hoping that this is the difference... I have been on this bender since Sunday... so I want to stop now.. tomorrow is a new day.

Actually, I think this is too much.. and maybe thats why I am going through this.. I have been following this plan, but not eating all of my exercise calories.. and maybe overestimating the calories in my meals when I am not too sure..

This is interesting ... thank you for the very detailed example. What I take from this is that I should be eating all my exercise calories, the weight will come off slower but I will be better off due to the increased lean mass and fat loss... sounds awesome, love my food and I am willing to burn a lot of calories to get…
