  • I eat about 1600 cals a day regardless of what I do,under this I am too hungry some days I cycle for 12 miles so I have masses of calories over but Im so used to eating this much I cant eat too much over equally on the days I dont exercise Im way over my MFP limit,thats just how I eat! little wonder I havnt lost weight in…
  • Baking your own stuff has its advantages,you know exactly what you put into it,no artificial anything,you can decide the size of your portions,you do not have to eat the whole lot!when I make dessert which is a special treat in our house we dont have it after lunch,we have it as a substitute for our evening meal!so freshly…
  • Hi Best of luck to you!I dont know how anyone can survive on 1200 cals,Im 5ft 2 and I eat 1600 I cycle 12 miles 2-3 days a week and walk the days I dont 6-8 miles and take Saturday and Sunday off,so Im leaning towards lazy!!!lol
  • OOh I think you are so lucky to have such a choice of pools! I think Ive read somewhere that swimming in cold water can make you hungry so its beneficial to have a warm drink if you do.I love swimming such a great exercise if you have a HRM thats waterproof wear it while swimming and see what you get,I havnt been able to…
  • when you are adding minced meat cook it dry in a frying pan first for a couple of mins until its brown then strain through a sieve,you will loose a load of fat from it doing this,put iyt back in the pan then add your sauce and let it cook!My husband is a chef I have his backing on this!!!!:flowerforyou:
  • you are just fab,you are an inspiration,you have what so many would crave and dont have your special ED I have one too but he is Dave!!!!!!
  • Dont know about this but from experience my 16 year old Daughter suffers excema is a very healthy eater and drinks only water she was tired and just off form so I took her to the doctor who found her sodium levels were too low suggested she added salt to her diet and cut back on the water!!I was very surprised at this,well…
  • Ah Nooooo!Then again he probably wouldnt like me either!!!!lol
  • Hi Im 5ft 2 and 150 lbs and Im happy,I have no desire to be 120lbs,Im very fit cycle 12 miles 3 times a week(weather permitting) walk for 9 km days Im not on the bike,sure Im not perfect but Ive had 5 pregnancies and my body will not see 20 years old again!!I am a constant work in progress,if I loose more weight I wouldnt…
  • yeah I aim for 1600 cals I exercise 3-4 times a week mainly walking and cycling,I just could not live on 1200cals a day I would be ravenous,life is for living!!
  • Are you workin out with weights too??? you may be gaining muscle,weighs more than fat but its good weight!!! Congtats on your fantastic loss!!!
  • 1600 cals is my TDEE I dont believe in low fat anything so its easy to do!!!lol:smile: sorry should have said 1600 is 20% of my TDEE!!!
  • if you can try this do it and see what happens,wear a heart rate monitor for a day and see what it burns,I realise that might not be possible but would be interesting to see,its difficult to judge from you saying you are on your feet,when you say on your feet do you mean standing in the one position? you are most likely…
  • I agree with the juice,Margarine and soy! Corn ok as long as its not gm and its not here at the moment ,hope it stays that way!
  • Sorry I just cant see whats wrong with 133 lbs at 5 ft 4!Im 5ft 2 and 150 and Im not that bad Im very toned sorry I think 115 is just way too light!
  • I thought I was being given too many calories at 1690 a day Im 5 ft 2 and was a bit nervous of this. I am fairly active as in I cycles 12 miles at least 3 times a week and when I dont I walk 6-8 miles so its working for me anyway,I would change it if I was more sedentary!!
  • Serving size here is a wineglass! I know its the avocado,its such a nice start to the day, I dont understand too much about the net calories I try to stick as near to 1600 cals a day and I cycle 12 miles at least 3 days a week so fairly active!
  • Are you serious???? I had my last of 5, 9 years ago and I dont look as good as this!!!!
  • all ice cream is fine to eat,once you dont eat the whole tub!my daughter had an Oreo carton on Saturday it was a 500ml carton and it was a whopping 940 cals,Im glad I dont like Oreo anyway,I had an almond icecream from lidl one of those you get in a box of 8 and it was 330 cals,so eat it but just be carefull!!!
  • I would say yes and no alot of cereals are full of sugar and basically the box they come in has more of a nutritional value,go for porridge you cook yourself!!! sayung its bad well thats not totally right to say food value isint great would be more accurate,they tend to be very high in salt! still what is a bad food?
  • I find this too!Its not that Im less hungry but when Ive earned 900 cals after cycling 12 miles and Im told I can have 2500 odd cals for the day I cant manage that,I still eat plenty I just find after 1600cals I dont need anymore1!!!
  • Do you think they were taking the mick because you were home baking and trying to make you feel you were doing something underhand and unhealthy because sorry if they were thats ignorance,you know what you put in your food!you dont have to prove anything to them! Thing is to me she is trying to get really in with him by…
  • Well done that is some weight loss,Im 45 and after 5 pregnancies I can never bare my midriff again lol!

  • I would be for agreeing with you I think each individual body does have a set point,Im 5 ft 2 and when I have drastically cut back Ive reached 136 lbs,I dont eat junk and I love my exercise I cycle 12 miles 3-4 days a week am as fit as a fiddle when Im not on the bike I walk 8-10 miles and still I will hover between…
