Because you're not eating enough. Out of the last 3 days you've gone over 1000cal, once. Eat what it recommends and you won't feel hungry. More protein and fiber also keep you feeling fuller for longer.

You're on the right track. But like has been said, without height, weight, gender, and goals no one's going to know if you're eating too much/little calories, fat, carbs, or protein. So all I guess I can say is way to go for keeping the calories down and not eating horribly. My only worry is that you're eating too little.…

Welcome to MFP, I hope you get to where to your fitness goals. As for the forums, this has been answered many times before and a search of the forums would show that MFP sets the protein low, but according to RDA recommendations. Don't worry about going over.

She's close but I'm tired of people thinking there's a magic way for you to burn fat while maintaining, or gaining, lean body mass. There are only two ways this happens, one is at the beginning stage of fitness. This is where a person has very little muscle mass to begin with and lots of fats to burn. But eventually…

Do not listen to trainingwithT. There are NUMEROUS reasons that her plan fails. Its a good start but is misguided on a number of points.

There are people out there that moan about the mercury levels, of MM. But for the most part its just as safe as regular foods.

I do both at the same time. Say you run 3x a week, appologies for not knowing the training used in C25K. For those 3 days, one would be a speed day, doing tempo runs and the like. The second a medium distance race pace run and the last would be your long, slow, steady endurance work.

For starters, body weight can fluctuate 5lbs daily without us noticing much difference. Secondly, nicotine definitely boosts metabolism and blunts hunger. Its a great drug to get into if you're wanting to lose weight...besides the whole cancer side effect. Smoking also seems to dehydrate the body as well, so the extra 3lbs…

Caffeine is the best safe, legal, and verified metabolism booster out there. Which is why most of the diet pills have caffeine as their main ingredient. Brew a pot of coffee and save yourself the $40 a bottle.

Look at Quest protein bars. 170cal, 20pro, 5fat, 24cho(18fib). Not bad for a little bar.

When you look in the mirror, do you like what you see? When you exercise, how do you feel? BMI is BS. It says I'm overweight. My scale hasn't really moved in two weeks either, but I've lost body fat. The number on the scale isn't the end all be all of fitness.

Her form is horribly wrong. I can't even tell what muscle she's trying to work.

Thanks naturemade for pointing out that post, I meant to comment on it. Added urination is not a effect of added protein, its from the glycogen depletion. Each gram of glycogen stored in the body holds about .3g of water. So as glycogen gets depleted, so does water. Do you know how you get glycogen depleted? YAY! Its by…

He'll probably find this at some point and have the same reaction I did, amazement at the people here. BTW, rsmithy, some people stay in keto up to 100g carbs. There's no set limit across the board.

Haha! Awesome! I've seen numerous videos of people falling from those, and they never get old.

Haha, Ms. Uninformed.

1. Low carb days, I'm at around 50. 2. Very effective. 3. I pee a lot and I'm always thirsty. 4. Technically, you don't have to have any carbs in a day...tho some are recommended. 5. No. Meat and cheeses are the low carb foods. I typically stick with chicken and broccoli.

Good luck.

Nope, not psycho. Many cough drops have sugar in them to make them taste like, whatever. Sugar=carbs and carbs=calories. Each one may only have 10-20cal in them but eat 10 in the day and you've taken away a meal that would have had better nutrients in it.

Its my standard diet. I've done it before, and doing it again now. Its been successful so far in each attempt. This time is close to a 1% bodyfat loss per week. Last time it was closer to 1% per month. If you need details, let me know.

Its called a supplement for a reason, it supplements your diet with added protein. There are also protein powders that are meal replacements. But those will have more fat and probably more carbs. Many protein powders will be "lean", if by that you mean low in fat. I drink one after my workouts, which just so happens to be…

Agreed. Don't change anything on game day. You're training runs are just that, aka practice. You wouldn't want to practice any differently than how you want to perform on game day right? Carb loading can happen in as little as a day. But usually takes about 3 days to fully accomplish. If you are fully glycogen depleted…

I don't think meth comes in pill form, but it might be possible. Try moving your meals later to accommodate your later schedule.

Its a horribly silly question, that to truely answer how to lose weight with a proper workout would take a detailed analysis of your eating habits, body style, goals, past injuries, and overall health. But to technically answer your question: the treadmill. Burning more calories than you eat will make you lose weight.…

Exercising gets your heart rate up. To sleep your heart rate goes down. That's probably the #1 reason, among a host of other hormonal reasons, why its tough to sleep after a workout. Try it. If you can work out at 11pm and sleep right after, more power to you. There's no hard and fast rule on the time of your workout. Make…

To each his own. Some like to flaunt, and some are more modest. Don't ruin a good gun show.
