  • Stop weighing yourself everyday. That's too much. Your weight fluctuates as much as 8 pounds up or down throughout the day. Once a week is plenty enough to weigh yourself. Drink enough water to prevent water weight forget about the past week, forget about the past hours. Start again right now. Go drink some water, have a…
  • Superhero themes get me going. Captain america Movie sountrack, The Dark Knight sound track. Things like that c:
  • Well, you don't gain muscle on a calorie deficit, you just workout to not lose muscle. But, you could be retaining water in those muscles. Uhm, it could be you're not eating enough if you're not eating your exercise calories? Also, weighloss isn't linear. Next week you could lose two pounds. It all depends. You've been…
  • Are you hungry? If so, eat! if not, don't sweat it too much. As long as it isn't a consistent everyday thing, it's not gonna hurt you, just like going over by 700 calories one day isn't going to hurt either.
  • I workout almost everyday. I think you BF is just concerned because if you don't give your muscles a rest they won't improve. He probably would work everything in one day, a couple times a week. As long as you're not hurting and are seeing improvement, you're good :)
  • I would suggest trying to work some junk food into your paleo diet. Maybe you just miss them and a little junk food here in there isn't going to hurt. I know I couldn't just not have junk food at some point
  • Probably not. And if you want a calorie count lower than 1,200, I hope you think about reconsidering it. It's not gonna help you in the long run.
  • It's most likely generic, but that's okay. Most calorie recommendations are based on the same factors that this site uses. Even doctors. All it does is take your the estimated about of calories you'd burn if you just did nothing (your RMR) and subtract 500 or 1000 (depending on your preferred amount per week to lose) This…
  • The quicker you lose, to more likely you are to have loose skin. The slower the better in this case. Because your skin takes time to bounce back. Also 70 lbs in 5 months doesn't sound healthy to me. I think aiming for a third of that would be much better, and would help there be less saggy skin, and less anxiety on your…
  • I can't really answer the lose fat/gain muscle question. I guess that would be up to you, what way you want to do it. Muscle first, fat second or vice versa. (I'm taking off fat first, then going to work on gaining muscle.) But you still want to train while losing weight, to keep the muscle you do have from being lost. You…
  • First off, your stomach isn't suppose to be completely flat. You have things there that are going to make it protrude. Plus regular every day bloating and unbloating is going to change that.(And your weight) Which means 125.1 or 125 it doesn't matter. You can change as much as eight to ten pounds either way (Which is just…
  • The site I first saw try to sell this stuff STOLE the pictures of a girl that worked very hard for her loss. They didn't ask her or anything. She never used the product. And I'm sure she wasn't the only fake 'success story' (Her success was real, but not with the help of this product) So from that alone, I think it's…
  • Yesterday, I ran from zombies, today, it's nothing. c: Or at least, nothing planned
  • So, I'm gonna weigh in here. I joined an RPG site, purely for roleplaying (Not sexual roleplaying, but the geeky kind). And yeah, I got several guys who wanted to hook up with my character, because she was female and a redhead. Then it got creepy. They couldln't tell the difference between me. and my character. I literally…
  • 5'7! Still working to lose. HW:239 CW: 225 GW: ?? I just want to get into the health range of BMI to start off
  • In school, like, third grade I think? Can't remember if it was during a test or we were suppose to have our heads down. But it was quiet And it was really loud. And everyone pretty much knew it was me
  • I don't deny myself, until I get to the point where I can't stop. Then I stop getting them at all, until I re-learn to work them back into my diet.
  • This happens to me, when I don't eat enough, or often enough. Normally, if there's something in my tummy, I don't get this feeling. So you might want to look into eating more (Like, if I tried to lose 2 lbs per week, I'd get this feeling) Or try to space out your eating so that you're eating more often.
  • Coming from the side that has been where he is, maybe don't be so hard on him. Ask him why he's not turning in or doing his homework. Ask him if it's just hard, or if he really just doesn't remember. This could be more than just 'I can do what I want'. He might be having real trouble and taking away his life isn't going to…
  • I'm a couple inches taller and wider than you, I normally run 18's You might get into a 14, but the only way to know for sure is to go to your preferred store and try some on. Woman's clothing do not have a standard size, anyway. I could be an 18 in walmart, and 22 in some higher end store
  • I weight multiple times a week (not exactly daily, but still more than recommended) I see no problem with it as long as you realize that body weight fluctuates, and as long as you don't get hung up that you gained a half a pound over night (Which is 100% not all fat, even if you did overeat)
  • Bloat doesn't just come from salt. Your cardio is using muscles and you muscles need water. They're going to hold onto a bit, especially when you first start. But it's not fat, so don't stress over that Having a small appetite doesn't mean you're eating enough. 800-1000 calories is not enough even for a person in a coma.…
  • Oh and, to add more to the lifting weights. The last two repetitions should be a bit hard. I think that's pretty much standard for weight lifting Lifting heavy or light doesn't matter, but lifting heavier is a real time saver. I'd rather do 8 reps of something heavy-ish than 30 of something light. Going too light and not…
  • Not no protein, you need it. Just don't eat four times as much as you need XD Lifting won't make you bulky, unless you work out like a body builder. No matter how much protein you eat
  • There's no way to know for certain, but to lessen the chance, stay hydrated/drink lots of water, use lotions/vitamin e and lift! Lifting's not hard, there are tons and tons of ways to learn form. Use very light weights to start. Learn proper form, like when you squat, look forward to keep your back straight and don't let…
  • Actually, My reaction to a subway sandwich was quite the opposite! 240 calories for a turkey, cheese and lettuce sandwich on white Italian and it keeps me full for a LONG time MMM Making me want one, just talking about it
  • Rest is whatever you want to define it as. Some just do light workouts or yoga or a walk, others do absolutely nothing. You just do less than your normal workout. If you want to do nothing, go right ahead! if you feel you want to, and can (as in it won't cause any discomfort or pain to do so) Then go ahead! In lifting…
  • Go to your setting, then edit your goal. You'll find a setting for maintain. Also, you don't really need to lose that one lbs, because I can assure you, you're not going to stay there. You'll stay around there. Body weight fluctuates daily, and it can be up to eight lbs either way. It's not fat, it's just the cycle of…
