  • Do you actually weigh your food? The very first time I bought a food scale I weighed what I "thought" was about 1 serving of ice cream. Turns out it was 2.5 servings.
  • I would bet that over half the people here are over estimating there TDEE. 95% of the people should be setting their activity level to "Sedentary". This is an example of the biggest mistake people make: Someone is fairly active. He/She will workout 3-5 times a week. So, definitely he/she DOES NOT fit the "sedentary"…
  • Just don't log it at all. Free snack day (night) It will be our little secret.
  • ^^ These guys act ridiculous but, they actually offer pretty good advice. You lift weights, so you are already doing somethings right. What kind of a program are you on? Intense short cardio is OK. Walking a lot is excellent. As for your diet, make sure you are getting enough protein. 1 gram protein per lbs of body weight.…
  • Mirin your dedication. If you can handle it go for it. Just make sure you give your body the rest it needs. Also, if you look good at 97lbs, nothing is wrong with staying that way.
  • The last 10 lbs are the hardest to lose. Not sure what your weight / body fat% is so I'm doing a little guessing here. Your fat intake seems a little on the low side. (guessing here) You should be trying to get an absolute minimum of .30 gram of fat per / body weight. Preferably a little more. Also, try to get some fish…
  • lol at all the people that says you need to eat more. You probably not losing weight because you aren't tracking calories correctly and/or over estimating calorie burned for exercise. If you are not weighing and measuring every thing that goes into your mouth, I guarantee your are under estimating your calorie intake.
  • You absolutely need to get more sleep. There is no way around it. Lack of sleep = Lack of energy Most people compensate the lack of energy by eating more. You can try and increase your quality of sleep but, you still would need more than 4-5 hours.
  • This is only half true. As long as you don't have carbs late at night you will be OK. Peanut Butter at night is actually good for you. If you want something sweet, I suggest going for some cheesecake that doesn't have too much sugar. Hope that helps. Remember, Protein and Fat will have a hard time converting into actually…
  • Just make sure you are eating a minimum of 6 times per day. Make sure you are getting 25 grams of protein per meal. Make sure you are taking in fast carbs and protein at the end of your workout. You can get by with the 1400 calories a day as long as you give your body a steady stream of protein throughout the day.
