I do not agree with this.

Please note that BMR is the amount of calories you burn a day DOING NOTHING. To the original poster, please make sure your weight loss goal is not set to something extreme for your goal. If you only need to lose a little weight, you do not need to set myfitnesspal to lose 2lbs per week. That goal is safer for people who…

Did you try ibuprofen and water? Water is awesome.

and they dont have tails to pull, and they train REALLY well BUT you can't go running with them. as dogs, they want to please you and will run to keep up with you. they will run themselves into a dangerous exhaustion. they are small dogs with small legs, sprints are awesome for them, but i can't even take mine on a 3 mile…

'sparkling mountain spring water' is what i'm drinking right now. it is fizzy. 0 calorie. no artificial sweeteners. 1 ingredient listed: carbonated mountain spring water its pretty ok. its nothing near a delicious pepsi, but its different enough from water (which i love) to make it seem like a new drink this brand is…

i might as well join this. might help keep me motivated :)

bam

someone once tried to get me to eat jelly on crackers (not bad, ok) with HOT SAUCE (other hot saucey like items added in? jalapeno? ) yea i ate one and was like NOPE but the other person really seemed to enjoy it.

Your original post sounds like you are confusing TDEE with BMR TDEE - Total daily energy expenditure = what you burn in a day in your life, including all of your workouts, all of you sitting around time, sleep time, walking from here to there, everything. it is a total. to lose weight, you want to eat less calories than…

It is really worthwhile to get help from a professional. They are knowledgeable about a lot of different methods you can try to help get yourself away from this habit. The sooner you stop this, the better for you in the (very) long run it will be. I had full fledged bulimia in high school for just under 2 years, a lot like…

This is so great. One of my top favorites of weight loss benefits, personally. :)

I'm a badger what was that, hufflepuff? jigglypuff

the temperature comment is really a helpful thing that a lot of folks look over i dont like ice water, i drink room temp boyfriend doesn't like water, but will drink hot water all day long (tea)

It really is up to you what type of music gets you moving. Personally, I like to introspective, thoughtful music. It gets me focused and determined in whatever I'm doing, including working out. This could be a classical Pandora station, a piano-styled station, or one called 'study music' I used from the Pandora suggestion…

oh, and the increase in salt did show an increase in the scale at first, but after i kept it up the weight came off again. sodium doesn't seem to be an issue with my weight loss. the only real issue i see is if i go way out of my range i will see a gain the next day. example: i usually eat 2-3 grams of sodium a day, if i…

I have been dizzy all my life. Recently the doctors have told me I have low blood pressure. I was encouraged to eat more salt. Through trial and error, I have vastly decreased my fainting spells by eating at least 2 grams a day. I am always fine if I go over that, and usually dizzy, and in bad cases fainting, when i eat…

yep. I came here originally to support a friend counting her calories. I stayed because I liked to learn about health and fitness. I lost weight, got fit, gained weight, lost some fitness, lost some weight. Now I'm still here. Still counting calories 80% of the time. Still getting fit.

yep

my go-to for awesome bodyweight training used to be bodyrock.tv BUT since ownership went from partner to one person, it has taken a turn to a different kind of exercising. The gal who used to star on bodyrock is Zuzana Light. You can look for her on facebook or look around the internet for her 'warriorz' exercises.…

maybe the results they are aiming for is to stay looking the same

oh i didn't read your post well enough, sorry! you seem to know whats going on. water weight from sodium can last anywhere from hours to two weeks (whoaaaaa)

sodium is pretty person dependent. some folks can eat 4000mg a day and not retain water, others start seeing negative effects at 2000mg if your blood pressure, and other health areas are average/normal, keeping it at 2300-2800 should be ok. with practice and vigilance, you can spot high sodium foods and decide how to…

Fantastic!! :D hooray!

i came here in 2010 to get fit enough to bare my belly in a winry rockbell cosplay never did that one, but yeah, cosplay is fabulous, and i play some games and all that stuff. there's groups available here, too, to find more folks with your interests

add a straw try at room temp, makes it easier to drink faster than cold water maybe a fun container will help you want to drink it really i love water and i am sorry you are having this issue :( not sure how to make you like something you dislike also a mint leaf per gallon will make a nice flavor

make your own salad out of the green bits and tomatoes there and drink water you'll do well, i think. i worked at popeyes chicken and that was the lightest i've ever been. i ate the stuff there too, but i mixed and matched things that weren't menu items for my own meals i wonder if that is allowed at all places. (popeyes…

a schedule is really helpful exercise helps lift mood, even PMDD mood (i've got it too, it is incredibly annoying) exercising and eating per schedule, especially during the hard times where you just don't feel like you can do anything, should help you at least focus on the small victories you can accomplish, like 'hey, i…

keep making new goals

mmmmm salmon
