I was a really fit kid... climbing everything, running around etc. Then my dad got my my first computer ;) Old 8086 box... then I started sitting infront of a screen.. Throughout my entire academic life, I have been ruled by my computer. I would wake up, use my computer, goto school (sitting all day in class), come home,…

If you get a char grilled sandwhich on their wheat bun its really not that bad... its when you go for the large fry and soda / sugary drinks that you ruin your diet. The sodium content is another story, since you will probably show some excess water weight at the end of the day, but thats just temporary :) *EDIT* This is…

I admire your dedication! Buuut you may want to rework your diet alittle bit... If you are constantly saying no to things like that, there is a chance you may break early.. its hard to always say no to those kinds of things... If you can work it into your daily life every once in a while, you may end up making your…

Another thing you may want to do is change up your exercise, and better balance what you eat. For example, lowering your calorie intake and still eating a lot of sugary things can make your blood sugar fluxuate, which can lead to feeling tired/fatigue. Too much fruit juice (which many people think they can just drink a lot…

Yeah they are usually just stimulants.. body builders sometimes use something called an ECA stack, which essentially tries to increase your heart rate and body temp to increase your metabolism. Note that too much of anything is not good, and too much of stimulants can lead to other side effects.. Caffiene will usually just…

Sounds like what I am trying to do! Usually when I get hungry and I am tempted to eat something, I just log onto this website and look at how well I have been doing in the past, and look at how many calories I have left... and tell myself if I splurge, all this hard work is ruined... That usually does it for me!

You can dooo it. ^^ Just don't overdue it. Make sure your life style changes aren't ones you can't do easily, otherwise your weight will come right back when you're not paying attention!

Its most likely a combination of things. 1) As state previously, you may have an increase due to water weight. 2) If you are not eating properly, your body will begin to store fat as much as possible. So make sure you are eating a balanced diet along with exercising. 3) Although muscle is denser than fat, gaining more than…

Unless you are going way over your protien, don't worry too much about it.

Yah you're looking for something like the BodyBugg or GoWear that uses various biometrics to determine how many calories you are burning. (These are both about 300$ and require a monthly fee to use the website.) Most of the devices I have found that are somewhat affordable like the FitBIt are pedometers. The FitBit in…

When I was 280 lb I was embarrassed to go to the gym.. Primarily because I didn't want people to know how incapable I was compared to them.. but then I realized that I was using that as an excuse not to exercise. The gym is there for you. You need to go there for you and not mind what other people think. If you let that…

Try to stay away from the chips as much as possible too. A few aren't bad, but if you are like me, if the chips with automatic refills are dangerous. I don't even realize how many chips I've eaten since the waiter(ess) keeps refilling them. So if I goto a mexican restaurant, I typically tell them to take the chips away!

Chipotle or Moes.. Oh how I miss it.

I agree. Watching them bust their butts make me feel like my 1.5 hour workout was a joke =.= *EDIT' 29 pounds lost in a week!?!! Thats... impossible...

Although your calories are close, making the right choices in what to eat can help you control your appetite, give you energy and get your metabolism going. If you are eating home made pizza and pasta where you can control whats in it, you shouldn't have a problem. The one concern I have with pizza and spaghetti from…
