I believe you meant 179.4 lbs. for your 7/22 post?

Okay, thanks for the reply. Will be great when it's available.

Anybody? Can it be done?

I so agree. I have finally wrapped my brain around and will adapt my eating around the foods I like and forget the "diet foods". The idea of using macros and eating good 80% and enjoy the 20% makes so much sense for a lifetime instead of a "2 week bull**** diet, loose 20 lbs." mentality. I'm done dieting!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for your input. I decided to move forward with more calories and don't stress the scale readings and start healing. I went from less than 1200 right up to my TDEE of 1440. My weight immediately jumped 2lbs. Took a deep breath and held on. This morning, dropped the 2lbs and then some. I'm on my way! Thanks so much. I…

Can't seem to get the website for IIFYM to cooperate. Some of the calculators won't work and the video won't upload. I'm a geek when it comes to computers but I did go in and add it to safe list.

I for one, think bodybuilders rock, only the non-steroid kind.:smile:

Okay, I just went in and did the TDEE thing. My base is 1800 and I need to eat 1440 to lose, so...based on this I will up my calories and try to find a way to do it; soup! :drinker:

Yes, I know I have done this to myself; years and years of screwy eating plans/abuse/etc. I think if I can get the food down it will work out. What I need that my help is high protein soups, easy to get down. I'm on the search for them. I just figured the mileage on my daily walk route and it comes out to 3.2 miles so…

How do you stop this? I can't hardly get 1200 calories down! I try and try but I just gag. I can't lose weight and I can't gain muscle. A long time ago I followed Physique Transformation, a website by Ric Rooney. They had a system where you plugged in your current intake for 5 days and then it programmed a start point for…

I'm not signing up either. Haven't started this program yet but will first of the year. Right now I'm just trying to get a small base under my belt with my trainer. I'm so out of shape, I just suck at the puny stuff she's putting me through right now.

I totally agree; Karma and What You Think of Me is none of my Business; these 2 things are my mantra. When you give good Karma it comes back to you good. The guy who did this has and always will have bad Karma.

I too have gone up and down with eating. My worst is wine; I used to drink a bottle a day! Always said I won't give up wine. I met with a personal trainer yesterday and she does not structure or cut out food. Her point is make sure you get enough protein from your meals to sustain the muscle you have; the rest is portion…

Good Morning All. I would like to join your group. I'm 59, my husband is 72 with parkinson's. We've committed to eating right and working out. We checked out our local gym yesterday and they have a trainer there that has a special program for parkinson's patients. We feel like this was meant to be as we only come here,…
