  • Don't go to mcdonalds. Mcdonalds salads suck. When i go i never get their salads. I'll get chicken strips, nuggets, or hot and spicy. Because i think their burgers are nasty. If you know you'll give in to temptation then don't go there.
  • It is set at sedentary. Should I change my activity level? I'm on my butt the majority of the day but i workout 4 days a week and starting next week I'll be working out 7 days a week with 2x a day 4-5 days. I'm adding more weightlifting and starting yoga. (Faster Weightloss not being the focus but would be nice lol. Trying…
  • I don't know which garmin she has but mine tracks everything. It tracks during resting, walking, and can track during workouts, swimming, bike riding, running.
  • Makes me think of hospital socks. They have that rubbery part on the bottom. I do some of my lifts in socks. My shoes fit but I get pain the arch that's unbearable.
  • I think the real question is, who doesn't like oreos?! Lol jk. I would eat the whole thing of oreos so everytime I go to the store I remind myself that I lack self discipline and don't buy it. If my kids want some kind of snacks I let them pick what they want and its usually not something I'm big on . I do get strong…
  • Whenever I lose weight while sick I don't gain it back. But my loss is more like 5lbs. Sorry you were sick but losing 15lbs must be nice lol
  • At 4'11 with 1670 limit goal and exercising( not eating back exercise calories) I am losing weight. Again, I'm 4'11 and 148lbs. You're 190 and 6'1, you can eat more. The reason it's probably a slow process is because you keep binging.
  • I usually dont count butter unless I'm making something where I know a lot is going into. Ex. Mash potatoes, Macoroni and cheese. For something like toast I just throw it on. Out of curiosity this morning I weighed my butter for my toast and it was 15 calories. So no biggie. ( i also use light butter) Pancakes, i use…
  • I've lost about 25lbs over 3 years. But I went from a tight size 16 to a size 9/10 and at one point a 7/8. I focused more on getting in shape and lost inches but not so much weight. Now I'm actively trying to lose weight and its frustrating. But measured my inches after 3 weeks and I've lost 3 inches off my midsection,…
  • I used mfp to set my calorie goal at the 1600 right now. I used tdee and included my workouts and got 1800. I know i am unfortunately. But I feel like it's a mental thing. When mfp spits out 1300 a day it feels depressing. And i know at that I can eat back my exercise cal but then I end up overdoing it before I realize it.…
  • I have one and I think so. It also counts steps when I'm driving which throws things off. I have to remember to turn the activity tracker off and on. I just kinda ignore it and go based off mfp calorie goal and my garmin calories burned during workouts.
  • I've been weighing all my food for about 3 weeks. So if I was off not by much. And yes I know that's not a lot of time but trying to eat 1200 sucked. I used a different calculator I found online that determined calorie amount by allowing you to add in how many days to work out. Also, great if you weren't hungry on low cal.…
  • If I'm just sore I will workout. If I'm in pain I will workout but in a way that doesn't cause more pain. Awhile back I had pain in my leg and couldn't run or even jog. I couldn't really stretch it out either. Tried to stretch and grab a pull up bar and ended up on the floor after sceaming in pain... So I didn't do that…
  • Most places wouldn't refuse, you should check into others. But they most likely refused because people get tattoos all the time with or for their significant other and then they seperate. And I'm sure tattoo artists get lots of cover up jobs because of that.
  • I did not mean it is physically impossible to be 100lbs. Just that I will never be 100lbs because I would never aim for that weight. Regardless if my bmi says that's the weight I should be. At 154lbs I had 32% body fat. Had a baby recently so I'm sure it's a bit higher now. But I am not that far off from an acceptable body…
  • It's always good to just do a before and after picture every now and then. I recently had a baby and I feel so huge and flabby. I am flabby lol. But i forget how far I've come. I'm still wearing a size I haven't been in since 8th/9th grade. I get so down but when I do I take a picture of myself and compare it to where I…
  • I almost always take my rings off unless I happen to forget and I'll wear them for something simple like squats off the rack. Cleans and deadlifts and such they really get in the way. But I've lost weight in my hands so my rings are loose and annoying so I rarely forget to take them off. I think it's more of a personal…
  • I had a biology professor who said the bmi charts are pretty inaccurate. There's so many things it doesn't take into account. I don't follow it. I'm 4'11 and should be around 100lbs. I will never be around 100lbs and that's fine with me. Hopefully one day I'll get to 130-135 and I'll be happy. I also do a lot of strength…
  • I have PCOS and everything I've read so far has suggested low carb since calorie counting just might not work. That in studies women who went low carb instead of low calorie alone were more successful. Because of PCOS the body can't breakdown insulin like it's suppose to. I don't know if I can go low carb though.…
  • Great job! I'm getting ready right now to go to my crossfit class. I started 3 years ago, down 6 pant sizes. Best decision I ever made was starting crossfit
  • Oh no this has been very insightful. I didn't realize it was a thing and what I was describing, in my mind, would probably fit the 5:2 diet. I don't want to go days without eating.
  • Wanted to. But it has been pretty unrealistic lol. I've been ending up at maintenance level or even a bit higher.
  • I have 2 school children. They pick up a lot of bugs from school lol.
  • Yes I have. If my calories are too low I won't lose. People say starvation mode isn't real but I beg too differ. Its why I've struggled with my weight so much. when I was much younger I went months eating at a ridiculous low amount of calories. Once I started eating correctly my body stored everything. And since then if I…
  • 4'11 and 151-154lbs. Trying to lose 20 and get to 130-135lbs. Don't know if it's ever going to happen though.
  • Hw 178 cw 152 gw 135 Been on and off the past few years. First time trying to accurately calculate everything. Use to just estimate. But been stuck between 152-156 for about a year. Did have a baby inbetween that year but right back stuck at 152ish
  • I usually eat an apple ora banana before my 5am workout. Just so I'm not working out on an empty stomach. But sometimes I don't eat at all and just eat when i get back
  • I lost 6/7 pant sizes with 15-20lbs. Started at a size 16 and went down to a size 9-10 I was doing crossfit so I lost a lot of fat and gained a lot of muscle.
