20-25 miles pro day is a LOT of walking. Given that even a brisk pace of walking is typically something like 3 or 3.5 mph, that's the equivalent of walking continually for at least 6 hours every single day. Do you really walk that much ?

My victory today was this: Someone put a HUGE bowl of M&Ms in the kitchen at work. I ate 2 of them. -T-W-O- This counts as a win, right ?

True. You can get a rough estimate simply by wearing a pulse-belt and log the duration and pulse, since your heart-rate correspond pretty well with the intensity of any given exercise though. Two different exercices that cause your pulse to stay at the same level for the same duration, are pretty likely to burn…

For anyone with a BMI between about 19 and 24, weight isn't really relevant to their health or attractiveness. Instead, focus on other indicators. Work on fitness. Or Strength. Or eating healthy. Or anything else that you like, and that alignes nicely with your goals. But there's no sensible reason to aim for lower weight…

Absent special circumstances, magic or questionable diets, no. 4 months is 120 days. If you lost 100 lbs in 120 days, you lost almost a pound a day, or in other words you where short something like 3000 kcal/day. Which isn't normally possible, for the simple reason that most people burn less than that a day, so even if…

Why would anyone laugh ? We've all been there. One mile is great ! Yeah, I'd recommend repeating it 2-3 times ideally with a pause-day between before continuing to gradually increase the distance. Be patient, and don't ramp it up too quickly, because doing so has a higher risk of injuries. A year ago, when I started…

Run a half-marathon. Do 10 unassisted pull-ups in a set. Look good naked.

The calories-estimate does sound high. I can burn 1000 kcals in an hour -- but I'm 200 lbs, and to do that I'd have to run the entire time and keep my HR to 80%+ i.e. competition-level running. I'd say at 160lbs it's quite hard to burn 1000 in an hour, it depends on your fitness if you're even able to do it, but if you…

It's normal for weight to fluctuate with 2% or 3% for no apparent reason. This is one of the reasons you shouldn't focus so much on day-to-day swings, and instead look at the longer-term trend. Simply drinking a large glass of water will easily add a pound or more of weight, but it does of course not add even a single…
