  • So to be honest with the advice, I need honesty in the details. After doing a quick research on your condition (Gastroparesis) it indicates that this issue (absent some initial known cause especially) tends to happen predominantly to females, and the conditions worsen when Progesterone levels increase. Seeing a potential…
  • I too endorse low carb, high fat, moderate protein. Tons of water. Lots of working out (with at least half being low intensity)
  • So understanding that you are Pescatarian, can you explain why? Do you feel that eating fish/eggs but no other animals is in-line with your genetic history? May sound hokey, but I put a little stock in the whole genetics piece, and than no single diet can work equally well for all.
  • I am going to make an assumption that some others are not. I am going to assume you are NOT an idiot, but rather an intelligent woman, who knows what she is doing... My guess is that you are finally eating the calories your body is needing to start building the muscle your body wants to build because (as you said) you have…
  • Are you doing any exercise?
  • Doesnt sound too off. THe BMR is what calories you burn just to exist (i.e. if you laid in bed all day). The TDEE is based on teh BMR plus your lifestyle (sedentary I am assuming, as that is what most of us use as a setting) The Fat loss (looks like a -1 pound?) is your TDEE - 500 kcals per day...abouts Is this right?
  • My wife is in the same boat. Since the calories used varies greatly based on age of baby and weight of mother, it is unlikely that MFP can ever (without serious legal complications) address this. My personal rec is this: Whatever your personal weight loss goal is, reduce it by half a pound (so if you want to lose a pound,…
  • In the military, and I asked the same to a nutritionist, and they told me to look at net. In my example, my daily caloric is about 1600 (sedentary) to lose 2 pounds a week. If I workout 1000 cals, i MUST eat 2600 cals, or else I risk starvation. Quote from them below: "They need to eat basically what they burn through…
  • Reading everyone's post, there is one thing that becomes clear. There is no uniform rule. I know science tries to state one rule to rule them all (LOTR style), but if you look at body typing and blood types, it is clear that we are each a unique machine, and must become cognizant through research of what we are as a…
  • All your calories seem to be from carbs. Very little seem to have originated from proteins or fats (2 things your body needs). I would look at the "balance" of your average daily eating plan, so that you have more protein/fat in the AM to give you teh stability to take you through the day. I am not a big fan of the "a…
  • Here is a man's opinion. When I asked my wife (now married almost 14 years) to marry me we looked at all that was needed to do it the traditional way. After we talked it over, we decided to elope, but in style. Yes we did get married in las Vegas, no we did not get married by Elvis, yes we did have a real (not drive-thru)…
