While you won't stall your weight loss by eating less than you should... You should be eating more. Based on the stats you gave and your activity level, your TDEE should be approximately 2700/day. A deficit of 1000 will put you at an average of 2lbs loss per week. For a reference, I'm shorter and 20 yrs older than you,…

Too late! lol

I think Duck fits far better in some situations than *kitten*. I mean, really, you can duck it, duck around, duck this, duck that, duck up, declare a what the duck, give a duck or not give a duck... and so many more!

rofl, I don't have anything left to take off, BUT I did consider getting my hair cut!!

Small steps:* Buy a food scale and weigh all your meals, log them. * Cut down on calories until you're within your calorie goals. * Repeat steps 1-2

lol, my cats would growl at you for that.. yes, strangely enough, they growl like dogs when there's something going on.

I skipped last night because of the butt hurt, but planned to ride again today. I just couldn't stand the idea of getting on last night lol

I'd have never thought a thinner seat could be more comfortable? I can't imagine having a bike shop guy measuring my sit bones lol... I did consider the bike shorts, but $$ wise, thought to go for the seat since I don't have to have more than one. On the shorts, I'd either be doing laundry every day or have to buy multiple…

lol, Gotta love the phone typos! This one fit so ducking well, though!

Exactly, it DUCKS!!! lol I'm in for the long haul, so I know I'll get there, just bahhhhhhhhhh I want it now!

Sit bones... I never heard that before, but that's exactly where I'm hurting! The seat is wide enough for them so I'll look into the padded shorts and give it time.

then you didn't cheat. Calories can't read a calendar and ding reset at midnight. Sounds like you're way under eating though

How are you measuring your food?

I have one I can share. Same name on Garmin. Friend and challenge me.

Your BMR is what you burn just to exist in a coma. Even if you were sedentary, you would burn 1480ish just to sit around and do nothing. Add in that you're exercising 6-7 days a week and that pushes you up to 1915ish per day. (These numbers based on a guessed age of 25) How are you tracking your calories? Food scale, cups,…

Well done!!!!!

Give it a few days to adjust to you. Mine did the same thing the first couple of days.

You're here, so it would seem you want to lose the weight. No one here can push you to do it, but I can tell you that sitting all day won't stop you from losing weight. If you'll enter your stats into this site, follow the calorie goals it gives you (don't go crazy looking for fast drops, slow and steady is way better and…

I use my weekly average, not daily. As long a your in a deficit fit the week, you're good to go.

There are entries for aerobics. Maybe that?

If you find that keto doesn't work for you, then don't give up. You can change your plan around to what works best for you. As long as you stay within your calorie goals, you'll get there. :)

In the end, the idea of IF is to create a deficit. How and when you do that is up to you. Do what works best for you and is most sustainable.

Omelets, frittatas, feed to the kids as scrambled eggs (maybe add cheese/ham/something for them). That said.. I did it once, ended up throwing them away and buying my egg whites. I love whole eggs most of the time, but the texture of the liquid eggs didn't work for me.

As far as this: Newton's First Law is most applicable on that. An object at rest, tends to stay at rest. The more we sit, the harder it is to get moving, but we have to force ourselves to do that. Once we get going, it gets easier.

As mentioned before, you are burning energy just by sitting there, breathing, living. Start moving more, even if 5 mins at a time. Build up as you're able. To jump start weight loss:* Input your stats into MFP. * Get a food scale. * Weigh and log your food. * Stick to a reasonable deficit.
