BMR is 2567, goal is 1900 a day. That's 667 a day off * 7 = 4669. I weigh everything out, and enter as precise as the scale allows which is 2 decimal places. I use a measuring cup for things that are in fractions of cups. I'm very precise about what I'm eating. I don't drink coffee with sugar or drinks with calories in…

Daily I'm eating 1900 calories as what I've calculated out to would be a deficient of ~5,000 calories a week from my BMR. If I eat anymore I gain.

I'm exercising to get fit, and actually run a 10k in 10 months. I'm losing weight to be more attractive for a mate and to just get it off my bones. The issue I have is I want to lose fat and maintain the muscle I have. I'm losing inches, but weight is staying around the same. That's what the whole eat it back mentality…

Looking good man, boo Chicago (Wisconsinite here)

I'll take a look at that. The reason I'm looking at this is during the summer I just don't feel the urge to eat or sleep. So having one thing planned out would be good.

I'm not sure, I'm trying to get more protein but it's really hard to get a lot of protein as a college student. I'm starting to eat a lot of chicken.

I've thought about that. I also realize it's very likely that I'm losing more than .5 lb of fat a week, because I am also weight training at the same time. I just got to start hitting the cardio harder. No more soccer at the gym where I spend a lot of the time walking. I just got to be more aware of what I am eating.

1-2 lbs a week.

I'm looking at going from 315 to 260. I'm down to 297.4 since right after Thanksgiving. The setting alarms sounds like a wonderful idea. I've figured it out before going from 365 to 270 in 9 months at one point. But I think I'm going to try the phone idea. I'm starting to drink tea instead of coffee to cut my milk and…

I'm totally an *kitten* guy. I would like my woman to have a nice *kitten*, and to be honest a smaller chest. But the sexiest thing is being to have a discussion with a girl about the universe, matter and everything.

Kind of want to stay away from soups and stews. Not the weather for it. Heck I live in San Diego, it never gets cold enough for soup here.

I don't have any fat hanging over. All my fat is in my butt and stomach.

What a lot of people don't realize is that depending on your weight you drop a good amount of weight in the first couple weeks of dieting, because you are losing water weight. The more water you drink the less water weight you have. The reason this happens is the less water we drink the more water our bodies hold on to.

I am increasing my walking by walking around the block which take 40 minutes being 2.5 miles while decreasing my calories. May also be the lack of sleep I'm getting because I haven't been tired in the last couple of weeks at night. The thing I don't like about rating scales Body Mass and is that it doesn't take into…

As people have stated 1500 seems to be very low and I agree, however being 295 @ 6'2" I actually am gaining weight at 2000 calories a day (gained 4 pounds last week). I highly doubt it is muscle due to the fact that I haven't been working out the last couple of weeks. I'm only doing 1500 calories to push myself over the…

Even through it doesn't really do much to knock calories off stretch. You said to limber up, the more often you stretch the more limber you will get. Find stretches you feel comfortable with and start with those.

Just joined, I'm 27 and after losing 50 lbs last year and gaining 10 of it back I'm coming back to try and lose an additional 40-50 lbs this year. I'm looking for people to chat with and give motivation and tell what worked for me last year, feel free to add me.
