It'd be exactly the same result (weight gain-wise) if you ate the same things slowly throughout the day as if you ate them at 4 am before you passed out. timing really doesn't matter, it's if you consume more caloriesthan you burn over time that causes you to gain weight. But if you were able to eat a bit here and there…

anytime you lose weight you're going to lose some muscle along with fat, but not enough to concern yourself with unless you're getting ready for a body-building competition. But as Ann mentioned it's really about keeping your macros reasonably close to goal over a period of time more than making sure they hit perfectly…

Input your info into the site/app, weigh and log everything you eat, and keep your calories within the recommended range. Don't overthink it, weightloss is really simple. Not always easy, but it's a simple concept - eat fewer calories than you burn and you'll lose weight. I really do recommend weighing out portions, and…

You were probably eating more than you thought with WW. Their point system is unnecessarily complicated and inaccurate in the name of simplicity. As long as you maintain a deficit, you'll keep losing weight. There's no reason weight loss would speed up with more calories, unless you are also doing more physically to burn…

If you want to be even more accurate, use raw weight, then weigh the fat you pour out and subtract however many grams of fat calories. That's a bit much though.

And unless the restaurant has machines in the back preparing everything to specific portions, the info on the website should be used as a very general guideline

PE Science, you won't regret it

If that's when you normally have your biggest appetite, plan around it. Eat less during the day. Calories in vs calories out over time, nothing magical happens if you don't eat at night and your metabolism doesn't shut down when you are asleep.

I just like when documentaries/articles/whatever about veganism reference world-class athletes with extremely muscular physiques who follow the lifestyle, but don't mention that they built those physiques before they adopted the lifestyle.

Netflix doesn't have an agenda other than getting and retaining subs. they do tend to pick "documentaries" with obvious agendas because they get people to debate on the internet

People make it overly complicated, but plateaus almost always happen because you're at equilibrium. Your calories in basically = your calories out at your current weight. You can eat less, exercise more, or both and it will break.

all I know is that if I lost a ton of weight and wasn't allowed a single muffin, the first thing I'd do when I hit my goal would be to eat about 37 muffins

I think the issue is the range that the Fitbit is looking for - if the range is set incorrectly, it won't register as whatever it considers "cardio level" I'm sure there's a way to personalize it to your age/height/weight etc but I am not sure how.

lots of people lose a lot of weight on a high protein/high-fat diet. That's the entire low-carb idea. just make sure your calories are below the goal and don't worry if a macro turns red.

nothing is "bad for you" really unless it's poison. just figure out if the macros and calories fit into your plan one way or the other and enjoy what you enjoy.

You lost weight because you happen to be eating fewer calories than you burn while maintaining a low-carb diet. It has nothing to do with eating fewer carbs, and there is no "code" other than "eat fewer calories than you burn and you'll lose weight." That doesn't sell books though. Congrats on your weight loss, but if you…

Skinny-fat usually refers to starting out overweight and losing too much muscle mass as you shed pounds so you end up at a decent weight, but a bad fat/muscle ratio. But track your calories, it's the whole point of the app/site. It becomes automatic after a while, and once you get used to it and into a routine that works…

My favorites are the people who wipe down BEFORE but not after. Saw that a few times over the weekend.

When the question is in regards to why deli meat has fewer calories than regular meat, it's about what's removed.

incredible

because you have no choice if you buy cooked chicken. but weighing it raw and using the raw data is going to be more accurate.

if you eat it all throughout the week, it doesn't matter if you had 20 grams more one day and 20 grams fewer the next day. just add it all up and divide it equally for the number of days you eat it.

The regular flu kills people globally

but he has a stethoscope around his neck and an expression that he looks like he practiced very hard in the mirror before making this video.

it's extreme but I typically eat about 90% of my calories in one meal.. it makes no difference as long as you eat fewer than you consume over time

It's not necessarily a bad habit or a food addiction. It might just be that you prefer to eat at night, and there's really nothing wrong with that despite all the conventional wisdom telling you to eat a huge breakfast and small dinner. I always get a huge appetite at night as well- I just eat less during the day to…

if you factor in the listed grams of carbs and fat along with the protein and calculate the calories, do they match up closer to 120 or 180?

Of course. It's all about calories in vs calories out over time. There's nothing magically good or bad about any particular food, and there's nothing magical that happens when one day ends and the next begins. If you were over by 200 one day, and under by 400 the next day, you'll still lose weight. Even if they were "bad"…

Until the laws of physics stop being a thing, unfortunately you'll either have to count, or get into such a solid routine that you know how much you're consuming automatically. The latter works for me, but I still have to count on days when I go off my normal schedule.

They're great. Not as great as real ice cream, but a great swap. I prefer most of the Enlightened flavors to Halo Top, but they are not as easy to find.
