@PAV8888 I think you’ve hit on something that’s new to me too. Several years into “maintenance” (which is really gaining and losing 10#), I am becoming more keenly aware of WHY I eat. Being tired and/or cold are big factors, anxiety, bored etc. I find myself reaching in the treat drawer and able to ask myself why? I have…

What a fun post. Nice work!

For the sake of speed, I steam my potatoes (teeny tiny gold from TJ’s) and cool them, then skewer and heat on the grill when I’m ready to eat them. I had NO idea this was a thing, but I can tell you that they are crispy AND moist cooked this way. If they have less calories, that’s a huge bonus!

I think the can is lying. Even cooked from dry with nothing added, 100g is 130. Double check the serving size on the can to make sure it’s not 1/2 cup.

Shoes, shoes, shoes.

That’s spectacular. Truly, the best possible thing you can do for yourself.

WFPB here. I use Cron to ensure I’m hitting all macros and micros. I had an issue last December when I got super lazy living on broccoli and potatoes. I had zero energy. Once I started paying attention again, I was fine. 65-75g seems to be my sweet spot.

Started at 50 and lost 75# by my 52nd birthday, it’s possible. It’s all about patience and consistency. That is all.

Not in premium either. Excel. Maybe do by week rather than day so there would be way fewer entries.

Unsweet vanilla almond milk, a dash of vanilla and some Kalhuah (sp?) over top.

400 Cadbury eggs

Zoodles, shiratki, kohlrabi

My fellow fluffers. Quest cold brew with Walden’s syrup is pure, fluffin bliss!

Corn is an awesome vehicle for shoveling in butter. Much like fries are used to deliver ketchup.

I’m not sure about “should” since it varies per person, but I do a minimum of 500 active calories a day on top of my 1500 BMR. So if I eat at (or around) 2000, that’s maintenance.

First fluff of the year with a wee side of Jameson.

@_piaffe sorry to hijack thread. But you have the most stunning arms ever. What the heck did it take to get to looking like that?

You don’t look like an Apple and 22% is great.

Yes. It took me a good long time (like 3 years), but I have finally learned 3 things: 1) just because it’s free, doesn’t mean you gotta eat it 2) nobody gives a crap what you eat 3) sometimes the best thing to eat is nothing It get easier. I promise.

CICO + patience = success Yes, it’s that simple.

Happy Maintain-Iversary Carved. Great job.

I’m proud of you!

After you have some solid data (like 30+ days) go into Apple health kit and add you average resting and active calories. That will be your TDEE. Take your deficit from that # and manually set your calories goal in MFP. Ex: 1500 resting + 500 active -250 = 1750

I buy the teeny tiny avos from TJ’s and eat the whole thing. Any random 1/2 bananas go in the freezer for nice cream.

Fit into the bikinis and shorts I bought last summer.

I added a 250 snack in the late afternoon, which is when I was typically white-knuckling thru to supper.

Quinoa

Reinstalling the app is always the answer. Lol

I can tell you what NOT to do. Don’t take a calculator in blind faith and assume it’s right for 6 months while you steadily put on 10#. Oh, did I say that out loud?
-
Weird. My AW logs workouts, but also regular activity like walking or whatever. It reports all of that into health kit which then dumps it into MFP as one number. Bear in mid, that if your activity level is set at something other than sedentary, MFP only gives you “credit” for the calories over that. So, if you are adding…
