Yep....I said that above too.

Actually, no...no it's not. Most of us, specifically the ones you're talking with, know there's a difference between just losing weight and nutrition. EVERYONE is an advocate for a well balanced diet that can allow for moderate treats. So often on here it's preached that carbs, meat, dairy, insert daily devil here is…

Ht/Wt/Age? Can you also define how much weight you lost over the last couple of months? What was your caloric goals and your workout regimen in this time? While you get that, here is some additional light reading. https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1161603/so-you-want-a-nice-stomach/p1

I'd say it's a pretty interesting response from your doctor. Honestly, it's hard to say and can be very individualized. I'm 5'7" and 160 was far too low for me. I got to 162-163 and was finding myself far too skinny and worked back up to about 167, where I did a recomp and landed comfortably at 172ish.

Dates

No, why would I do something like that??

Yep, especially if she starts it. "Quickly runs off to check in-box"

Start with a date and see where it goes from there. ;)

Absolutely, Wherever you want to go.

Nope, why would I do that? ;)

Um, yes please!

Date

Good on you, but I would be careful with some of your advice. For me personally it would be #7. Treadmills are FAR from useless, and TBH it's a bit offensive to say they are. I lost over 50lbs with my sole cardio being a 4 mile run on a treadmill. The first time I stepped outside to run a 5K I ran a sub 22min. Continuing…

I don't think there are people bothered by IF, it's more when wild claims are made about certain WOE's. In this case I'll go with.....because you said it slows aging based off of the "guess your age thread".... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Highly doubtful it's a 1:1 ratio of fat-loss to muscle gain. Gaining muscle is really....really hard and like OP says, she's eating at a deficit so gaining muscle is even harder than it already is.... I'm with the others, OP if you know your intake is on point and you're at a deficit you're probably looking at water…

I'm not sure why it's hard to comprehend..... It's pretty much any WOE, if you haven't learned portion/calorie control with the WOE...you'll gain weight. Not every WOE works for everyone. I would absolutely struggle doing IF and could easily over eat. I would say that's every WOE too. For it to be successful we need to…

That's at least 1100 net....Right? #crossfingers

Before we go much further, it may be helpful to open your diary. Also some stats: M/F - ht - wt - age

Usually music during cardio and I'll listen to the TV when I lift.

Um...^^^^ yes please.

Honey/bees gentlemen. I've seen both of you jump in feet first calling people out, calling people awful things and awful names; and in general doing the same thing you're complaining about....therefore a stigma is born, just say'n.
