If you've only just started calorie counting you have no idea what about you've been eating for 3 years my guess is a lot more than you think

Was that a dietitian or a Nutritionist? My guess is a Nutritionist anyone with any Mickey Mouse qualification can call themselves a Nutritionist including the afore said mouse. Ignore her eat a balanced diet and you can probably eat a lot more than 1200 calories

So I've just come to this thread so do I have it correct The Op is not losing weight her diary is inaccurate which can be seen by the half filled days and the use of generic entries and randomness of some of the amounts. Even though the logging is inaccurate she must have a medical condition and be defying science because…

This wont end well

Most Nutritionists are pretty clueless regarding a vegan diet some links for you. As long as she goes for a balanced diet there really is no need to worry about her getting sufficient nutrients. http://www.vegansociety.com/resources/nutrition-health If she is serious she will do a lot of her own research. When I became a…

One word 'Perspective'

I always love these threads with the high and mighty telling everyone what they should do. Luckily most of us live in countries where we have free choice so can make up our own minds whether those on their high horses agree or not (I am not saying if I will or will not have the vaccine as that is a personal 'FREE' choice)

Set your goal low to 0.25kg. You don't have much to lose so you need to set it at the minimum

You going to eat that every day for the rest of your life?

I still want to know are you Sebastion Johnson or are you just using his image? You've never answered this http://www.imperial.ac.uk/AP/faces/pages/read/Home.jsp?person=s.johnston&_adf.ctrl-state=14qgpr7ir8_3&_afrRedirect=2716033129030520

No don't eat more that's just wishful thinking. You just eating far more than you think you logging is inaccurate there's numerous non logged days and quick added calories. Get your logging sorted and set a more sensible goal (you could easily be eating 1800 and losing weight Have a look at the links…

Running on a treadmill is easier as the ground is moving and cushioned whereas running outside you are propelling yourself along. Also you have the variances in terrain and weather. People generally run faster on a treadmill due to this. So there will always be a difference in time and pace. I don't do treadmills as I…

No need to tell like where you've got a recipe from? So why do you wish to take credit for some one else's recipe? How would you like it if someone tried to take credit for your work? It's only polite and proper to give proper credit.

Any specific reason why 80/10/10? I'm a Vegan and aim for quite a bit more than that. Percentages are a bit of a bad way of counting them anyway because 10% of 1200 and 10% of 2000 are quite different. For a sedentary person the recommendations are normally around 0.8g per kilo so more if you exercise or do weights. I aim…

At 5"2 and 97 pounds you're underweight so you could do with putting a few pounds on.

Kale because it's food from the devil

No... /THREAD

Most people are just kidding themselves about the amount they are eating. You just need to look at the forums for that. The amount of people who guarantee that they are eating 1200 calories and not losing weight but when you actually look at their diaries they are just guessing what they are eating

If you're that desperate for calories maybe you need to look at the whole of what you're doing.

I bet your not eating 1200 calories in all liklihood your eating more than you think The link will help HERE

This site is for over 18s only. Pop over to sparkteens who will be able to give you better help. The nutritional and diet needs for those still growing are very different which is why you need more specialist advice good luck

When I had mine done I adjusted my diet accordingly and after a few days started some gentle walking and built back up from there. The main priority is to make sure it heals properly as long as you eat at the appropriate level for your less activity weight wont be an issue. Your fitness will come back once it heals…

Are you going to eat that for the rest of your life. As normal PTs giving silly and unsustainable diet plans. Take the training advice but ignore any nutrition advice the majority of PTs give terrible advice regarding nutrition and either perpetuate myths or just push needless products they're trying to sell. You should…

You wont build muscle in a calorie deficit and especially not while running. You may lose fat tissue and your legs will become more defined but running definitely wont make your legs become bulky.

My first thought is to slow down it sounds like you're trying to run at the same pace no matter the distance. Run at a pace you can hold a conversation even if it feels too slow. Then just gradually increase the distance. My 3 mile pace is totally different to my 10 mile Pace sometimes it can take a mental shift to force…

It always amazes me as soon as people realise you're trying to lose some weight they all suddenly become experts on nutrition.

You say you're eating 1400 calories but from the entries I see your eating upwards of 2000 calories most days and even then your logging isn't that accurate (cups and spoons when things should be weighed) so I'm guessing your eating a lot more than that. SO you need to be honest with yourself. Also as you have so little to…

Well you're not logging your food accurately. So start there without doing that you haven't a clue how much you're eating as you're just guessing.

It's a change in attitude about your life and your health. Those that are saying it's just a fancy term for diet are either missing the point or miss using the phrase. Diet has the same relationship to a lifestyle change that grain of sand has to a beach. It's a tiny element the same way activity is or being aware of your…

I'm sorry that's just rubbish. For starters you wont build muscle eating at a calorie deficit. and you don't burn away muscle either. Yes when you are on a diet of any sort no matter what you do you will lose some muscle mass that's just a fact. Yes you can minimise some of this by weight training and proper nutrition. In…
