Commenting so I can find this when not at work where everything is blocked. Used to keep spreadsheets when I started. Now I just live it. If I think I need to adjust something, I do.

I am set for a 2410 daily burn. What I have gotten for the last week: Burn ---- Adjustment 2667 ---- 256 2838 ---- 427 3099 ---- 688 2467 ---- 56 2557 ---- 146 2819 ---- 408 2655 ---- 244 MFP has always minused 1 for some reason.

I picked a number that was smaller than I was, but not too much smaller (-20lbs). When I hit that I picked another smaller number, and then another. As I got closer to looking the way I wanted to look I switched to doing the same thing but with bodyfat, as at this point I'd be happy weigh what I do now if I can exchange…

It doesn't talk that way. If you have 2 people standing next to each other, same height, same weight, one is 10% body fat, and the other is 35% bf, they are not going to wear the same size. And if they both lose 10lbs of fat, how will this change them?

Lose More Weight or Begin Strength Training? -- The answer is Yes. Do both, do them now. -- Odds are that you will get some nice newbie gains for the first couple of months, while losing fat (Fat is what you want to lose, right? Weight is just a number, but if you can lose 10lbs of fat while adding 10lbs of muscle you will…

It all depends on the sub. Same as anything. For that matter, you can make a salad that has more cals than a BigMac. Just add cheese, meat, and a ton of dressing.

When you are trying to stay in a zone...such as cardio zone or fat burning zone...or as you cal them, levels.

"abs are developed in the kitchen" No, they get revealed in the kitchen. Lots of six packs are hiding under a thick layer of tummy fat. For example, Hafthor Bjornsson. You might have seen him as the Mountain in Game of Thrones. But you want to build those abs, that takes working out...in what ever form that takes for you.

To get to that point she has been eating 3000-4000 cals per day for months, and burning most of it off. She is 5'4", and 142lbs in the more muscle-y one. 131lbs in the…

What do you eat with salads? 8oz of chicken breast is the norm for my workday lunch salad, along with 0.17cups of sunflower seeds (They have little cups intended for dressing). The rest is veggies.

Not following any plan at all, most of my life I've had a 10-11 hr window I eat in. Breakfast at/before work (9a), lunch during (1p), snack (3p) and dinner within 1-2 hours of getting home (6-7p). And for years and years I skipped breakfast, except when I was doing physical labor all day (Normally summers when I was a…

Can you do a push up? Not one one your knees. Can you do a pull up? Can you at least get close to doing one? Like say, 25lb assisted? Can you do 10 burpees without calling it your entire workout? Can you bench press an Oly bar with no weights on it? (45lbs) Then you should be ok.

Something as simple as going food shopping and prepping all those lunches is likely burning more cals then what you normally do the other days of the week. For me, 180 cals for an hour of prepping and cooking, 30 min of walking at 2mph to do my shopping is 100 cals.

Since it is the average that really matters over time, getting each day close to the same should be just fine. Face it, it is not like you burn exactly the same number of cals each day, so having you intake fluctuate a bit shouldn't matter. The other part is, you are trying to live a life, not a science experiment.

Also checkout stuff like "BODY BY YOU: THE YOU ARE YOUR OWN GYM GUIDE TO TOTAL WOMEN'S FITNESS by Mark Lauren" from the library, and they often have DVDs for things like BeachBody and the like. Remember, you don't have to be able to do everything in the videos perfectly, or as fast and often as they do. Just push yourself,…

One of the things that often effects new runners is they start off by trying to go at a pace faster than they can handle, so they quickly get out of breath and have to stop. When I started I was having to stop before my first mile (It was my goal), then someone suggested I slow down a bit. BOOM! Ran the whole mile faster…

You are 150ish lbs...so 7% = 1.5*7 = 10.5lbs Did you lose anything like 10lbs last month?

I'll let you in on the big secret: Eat at a deficit. Weigh your foods so you are really sure that you are eating at a deficit. But do not starve yourself. Spot reduction is a myth. Fat will leave from where it wants to, and nothing you or I can do will change that short of surgery.

9miles/1.5hrs = 6mph average speed. Weight 341lbs Time 90minutes (1.5hrs) http://www.bicycling.com/training-nutrition/training-fitness/cycling-calories-burned-calculator = 928cals (1.5hrs) = 10.31cals/min…

Don't be afraid to lift heavy (by heavy I mean enough weight that you struggle to finish the last reps). New Rules is good advice. Calorie burn while lifting is not anywhere near as much as in cardio (cardio you never stop...lifting is a less than a minute of lifting followed by 1-5 minutes of resting..and then you are…

Using their example and your numbers: 2 days x 2501 (little/no exercise) + 5 days x 2866 (light exercise) = 19332 cals/week total Now we take that total and find your daily average (19332 / 7 = 2761) so your average TDEE is 2761. Since you want to lose fat, we take your average TDEE and reduce it by 20% (2761 * 0.8) and…

One of my favorite things to have happen in a game was the guy who could really run took off when the zombies swarmed. He ran to the house, slammed shut the door behind him, and then realized he had just locked himself in with more zombies than had been outside. Knowing he'd be attacked before he could get the door open,…

Is this kind of what you are looking for as an end game? http://www.nerdfitness.com/blog/2011/07/21/meet-staci-your-new-powerlifting-super-hero/

Since this became semi active again, here is a study on accuracy of 8 different activity monitors: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/06/20/activity-monitor-accuracy-fitbit-jawbone_n_5516156.html Link to the published study is in the article.

No you are not eating enough. I am sure your doctor will tell you the same thing.

Part of the reason I swap which arm it is on each day or so. But I imagine it would be more of an issue if it was waterproof and I could wear it while kayaking and swimming.

Having been camping this weekend, and woken at 3am to it pouring buckets, and making the need to go to the communal restroom (Some 100yrds away) an ever more pressing concern... Please give me a connected bathroom when possible. By the time I had walked 10' I might as well have run to the river and jumped in.
