I set mine at maintenance. then by quick add calorie - 250-500 depending on the exercise of the day. and eat mainly 1200+/-

breakfast: oatmeal is my favorite. and cocoa powder with glass of milk lunch: i love to pack different fruits/veggies. eat a different varieties. :)

drink tones of water... that's what I did... btw, I do like drinking coffee black. or try the creamer called "Mini Moo's® Half & Half | Land O'Lakes", it only has 1g of fat, and add sugar like stevia into ur coffee to make it better? A coffee a day makes me happy so why cut back if found better alternatives :P

do you mind open your food log?

I was impressed by "losing weight eating McDonald's" more

Thanks! are you on any of the lifting workout schedule or do you just create your own? I used to do 1 leg day, and 2-3 upper body days per week with 1-2 cardio sessions. May I know how you split your workouts? I will look into TDEE method an figure out my actual numbers. thx again :smiley:

I tried weight lifting but I was not able to *go* any further. I stopped at 45 lbs for deadlift, and I will pick up on it when my life goes back to normal. Thank you for your reply. May I know what language are you trying to learn? It's always cool to learn languages. I'm also learning a third language - Japanese - and…

thank you so much for replying. and wow... 50 hormones!? this is crazy... I am trying to figure out what food does what for my body, play around a little bit, even if I'm gaining, it's still good to see the result of certain food. Even though I'm still stressing on the numbers, I was not so crazy about it. but thanks…

so true.

My set back comes from I was never that "bad". I was 140 to start with and now I'm between 118-122, but I still looking into lose another 10 lbs. It's not biggy, I'm still considered healthy, I'm still working on toning my body, and it looks good. BUT I WANT THAT NUMBER. maybe that's unhealthy..?

I have the same problem. because right now we all in holiday mode and I'm between jobs and schools as well as the season, So I'm not really go to the gym rather workout at home. I kind of lost my motivation but I promise myself to go after mid-January.

OMG Good job and keep up the good work!!

If I do, I log. but I like black coffee better. Same with sugar. If zero calorie, why log. :disagree:

save money.. lol Literally can wear the same pair of jeans from 2-4 years ago

If you are not planning on letting them go for the rest of your life., just eat them, in a smaller portion. like weigh out one serving or even half serving of chips and eat it. It's not necessarily bad for your weight loss journey

Just out of curious, Does anyone wanna start a kik group chat or line group chat?? becuase that way we can kind of all jump in together and make friends?????

I'm in!!!!!!!

Same here, I was going thru some health issues so I wasn't ablt to workout for a while, then I put on couple pounds. Right now I wanna wipe off extra fat I have, tone my body before the new year :disagree:

no nah no no no give me my sugar back :wink:

LOL, instead of saying counting calories, I would say that I use MFP to help me stay healthy. Don't bother. move on. be you. look down to ignorance

Tip for restraurant: when you order, you can order basic protein (i.e. chicken or steak with no butter, plain cooked) with veggies (also w.o butter, steamed)..just to modify the dish a little bit to get clean food, you don't always have to order salad. I'm a foodie and around your height, add me if you want to : )

This post is so evil but gosh My weekness is anything *fake* pumpkin flavored

I would say eat at least 1200 a day and see how your body feels. Since your TDEE is 3000+, you can easily hit 2000 if you want and still lose weight. Are you doing any exercises? :)

same here. I had a surgery last week and I took this whole week of because my doctor said so, I also felt bad, so I did some light workout, such as stretch, and some workout videos on youtube (not the cardio ones, but the arm/abs/legs workout) just to get my heartrate pump up. Anyways, good luck on us! hopefully we won't…

Same!!

helllllooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!omg i finally found people who are around my height!! I'm 4'11 and I'm around 116lbs right now. I need to get down to under 100! :)

me too I need friends. It doesn't matter if you are cutting or bulking/ lose weight or maintain, I just love to see us support each other. I use this app on a daily base so add me:)

I'm a vegetarian also and I don't know how to keep my protein up other than dringking protein shakes and eating protein bar -_-
