I'm glad you've figured out satiety levels of every individual on the planet.

Except that she is under her calorie goal for the day. By a lot. You even said that undereating isn't a great idea. While she may or may not want to do intermittent fasting. In this case, if she wanted a snack (which she did), she should eat it. And then she asked if eating that snack would inhibit her goals. Which it…

And none of that applies to the OP's question. Can you stop derailing this thread?

So, being at a healthy weight decreases the risks of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. And IF is one way that people can use to stay in a deficit to lose weight. Uh. Yeah. We all got that.

It's probably safer if no one tries to clarify Gale's statements.

That's great that it works for you. But many people in this thread are saying the opposite.

I just can't.

No. I skip breakfast and wait about 15-16 hours after eating at night and eating again in the morning. Some days my carb count is less than 100g. Other days it's over 200g. When I eat does not impact what I eat.

I also make my own. I found an ultra thin crust, and I top it with garlic hummus, spicy italian turkey sausage, bell peppers, banana peppers, greek olives, goat cheese, and mozzarella. Super good, and half a pizza is a little over 700 calories, which is totally doable.

Does that get folded into BMR, or is that more considered thermogenic effect of food?
-
Total weekly calories = total calories consumed over the week Total deficit = total calories spent - total consumed If you don't track total calories spent, look at what MFP tells you your deficit is each day including exercise (so, if you have it set to 1lb per week loss, that's 3500 base calories and then subtract any…

So everyone is arguing, but we're all actually in agreement with one another? Sounds about right.
-
Honestly, the only way to figure out if the calculators are wrong is to see if you don't lose weight at the rate you're expecting. Doing a little math can help here. Go back and look through your diary and see what your total weekly calories were for the week for several weeks during your loss. Then look at total calories…

I do not have any issues with midfoot, but my issue with ordering wide shoes in general is that they are loose on the heel and still not wide enough in the toebox. The Altra's are perfect for me, but the different styles also differed from one another (one was more narrow than the other). I ordered a few different styles…

They take a little bit of getting used to when you look down at your feet. They're vaguely shaped like clown shoes, but I LOVED them after just wearing them around for a few minutes.

Not a selfie, but I've been enjoying these because I have a really wide toe-box:

Ok, I know that the OP wasn't looking for advice, but I'd also recommend that the OP look into mindful eating. There are all sorts of books and websites, but here's one to get you started: http://amihungry.com/what-is-mindful-eating/

I'd not heard of it so I just googled. The battery in it is a c2032, which is the same battery I put in my food scale. Not that much smaller than a quarter, which would make that tracker pretty huge despite their photos.
-
Ooh, that does look delicious! Glad you enjoyed.

I'd aim for protein. Eggs and some ham? Go crazy and use the donuts to make a breakfast sandwich by cutting it in half and putting the egg and ham in the middle. :smiley:
-
Well, it doesn't work for you because you didn't maintain a deficit. I guess I'm lost on the point here? Aiming for a weekly deficit works if you remain in a deficit. You can have an equal distribution of that deficit across every day or you can vary your deficit each day (a surplus of 800 calories above goal can be…

To some extent I agree. Mindless eating definitely contributed to how I got so large. But, to be fair, I work through my lunch these days, but only so I can spend my actual lunch break out walking... :smiley:
-
Right, but it's the exact opposite of my point. Which is expected since you do LCHF. But, my point is so many people bemoan the low fat era and rant and rave about the damage done to the "name" of fat and I can agree. But then they go on to do the same thing to sugar and/or carbs. My point being, in 20 years, we may be…
