I think you are fine. Keep doing what you are doing because it works. You are losing so much because your starting weight is so high. Eventually it will taper to about 1-2lb a week. When it gets below 1lb, then you can start changing what you are doing. Keep up the good work

If you have a deficit of say 400 a day, then if you go over for 100, you've still gone 300 under your maintenance which means you're still on your way to losing weight. The trick to not feel guilty about eating pleasure/comfort foods, is to incorporate them via a plan...i.e. saturday I'm eating a BIG bowl of ice cream. Or…

1. Pounds lost: 10lb 2. How long it took: 6 months 3. How many calories you were eating a day: 1650 4. How many days a week you worked out: 5 5. How many calories did you burn during your workout: 300

It depends how fast you are running as well as your weight. The faster and heavier you weigh, then the more calories you burn. If you run 5 miles an hour, then I would say you burn around 110 calories in 15 mins.

If I am doing 3x5 then I do 1.52x bodyweight.

I like making a green/red thai curry and add lentils to it. I usually forgo rice, but you can forgo meat and add rice, or have all. If you make your own paste, essentially, ginger, garlic, corriander, chillis (green/red), prawn paste and coconut cream, then there is no added salt. (red curry has tomato paste too) Blend…

Yes totally! My recommendation is if you are looking at drinking and maybe eating snacks while you are there then, before you get there, have a really good, no carb meal. So steak/meat + veges. Really fill up on this. This will hopefully satiate yourself and when you go to the party, you can have alcohol and snacks but you…

Do you do any form of fasting? You can fast for most of the day, and order a smaller pizza than normal?

This isn't right. You can have 4 shakes a day if you want. What you need to make sure is to have the right amount of protein. Around 0.7-0.8g of protein for every pound you weigh. Isolate protein is good because it has very little fat and carbs. So now it depends if you are mixing it with milk or water. I would stay away…

Do you do intermittent fasting? Essentially you go eat at maintenance, otherwise you will lose weight. Lifting will help gain you some muscle and lose fat if you eat properly. Make sure your protein is high (around 100g for your weight). You can eat at a slight deficit (-15-20%) on non workout days, and then eat at +15-20%…

Nice. How much chicken do you put in. How many does this serve and what are the calories per serving?

Essentially if you don't want to eat anything different, I would change the days you eat these foods. Look up Starting Strength by Mark Rippletoe. That's a good program that will last you years. You should only work out 3 times a week. On work out days, go for you pastas and cheesburgers. On non-workout days, eat less…

I started when I was about 60kgs back when I was 24. So yeah, you are fine to start. You'll find that you'll gain weight very quickly even eating what you eat now. All newbies gain weight really easily. To do it well, you'll need to start eating more. What does your typical daily diet consist of? Give a couple of examples…

Weight, age, height, open your diary

1) you can go to the gym whenever you want. You are at the right age. 2) how much do you actually weigh 3) metabolism stupidly high? probably not, you just have an active lifestyle. Michael Phelps during his training days ate 12000 calories a day.

I lost 10lbs with calorie counting, IF and lifting weights. Check my profile and click my blog. Happy for you to add as friend and I'll help with questions

you need to tell people information, height, weight, age, what exercise for what time, what foods you are eating. otherwise what do we post? eat less, exercise more? be patient it's only been 2 weeks?

Click on my profile and check my blog. Yes it works. You need to make sure you have a good program. I would recommend Starting Strength by Mark Rippletoe as a good starting point. You could be on that program for years. Make sure that your diet has high protein. approx 0.7-0.8g of protein per lb you weigh. so if you weigh…

well it doesn't change much. Your TDEE is 1862, so you should be eating 1350 each day. This is definitely a target, don't try to eat under it. You want to be eating high protein, somewhere around 100-120g of protein. If you exercise that day (resistance) then you can eat a few carbs, but I would be limiting to around…

TDEE = Total daily energy expenditure. Which also calculates the energy you use walking/eating...general daily things. You can also factor in activity if you want. Anyways, first, if you are around 5'7" then your TDEE is 1900. You should aim to eat around 500 under this. so 1400. If you want, you can eat back your exercise…

Inspiring watching all you people lose so much weight! I didn't have much to lose so can't really compare.

I do calorie counting and leangains. My diet is low carb (usually under 100g) and high protein, approx 160g and the rest is fat. Works well. I keep my muscle mass, lose fat. win win.

1kg is not a healthy target unless she is quite overweight to start with.

Yup, Belly usually the last to go. It is due to poor circulation down there. Make sure you are doing lots of core work and when I say core work I don't meant crunches and situps. I mean squats and deadlifts which strengthen your CORE not your stomach. Strengthening the core helps to build muscles around that area to help…

Act II popcorn (kettlecorn, salted, butter, can eat at least half the pack) Sugar Free Gummy Bears (watch out eating too much though...toilet problems) 40g packet of crisps + diet soda 50g of peanut butter + lots of carrot sticks or celery or whatever or that type you like

Coffee is fine. I have on average about two cups a day. Alexanderzama has said that you don't eat enough and I totally agree. You CANNOT consistenly eat under what is your caloric daily goal. I'm sure MFP has already got you on a deficit. You are constantly going under THAT by 1000 calories and sometimes even more than…

Like the poster above said, you need to eat an extra 3500 each of those days to get it all back and they are correct in saying it is probably the sodium content. It is also probably the carb intake, you not working out, so there is a lot of glycogen in your muscles at the moment. As for cheat days. You shouldn't do it. It…

As one member has said, the 6 meals a day has been debunked. There is no benefit except when you are eating say 5000 + calories a day. It's hard to eat that much in 3 meals. I do IF and I only eat on avg 2 meals a day. I might eat an apple in between on some days. 6 meals a day if it works for you sure, but as you said in…

Maintain can be hard because you don't get any reinforcement like when you do when you are losing weight. I would say, increase your calories slowly. If you know your exercise burns 400, how about eat 200 of it. try it for two weeks. two weeks is a good gauge. If you "ARE" over eating, then you might have gained 0.3kgs…

Looking at your diary for the last few days and there is one really glaring problem. You are not eating enough protein. Muscles in your body is one of the biggest ways to burn calories. So the more muscles you have, the more calories you burn. How granted, you don't want to gain more muscle, but you won't if you don't lift…
