Just counting calories, both ingested and expended!

There is "strength training" in the cardio exercise database. Log your minutes just like any other workout.

Sure, thermic effect of food is a thing. But you're sure not going to make a 500 calorie deficit by adding a ton of zero calorie sodas to your diet. It's negligible, and TEoF is already included in your calculated calorie needs.

Stop drinking so many calories. Learn to like black coffee. It's hard enough to stick to a 1200-1400 calorie diet, and you're just making it harder on yourself when you use up 100-400 of those on beverages.

Eat 200 calories less than normal the next 4 days. Rectified.

Lack of food burns body fat. Eat 500 calories less than you need to maintain your weight, and your body will burn fat.

Calorie restriction and exercise. Preferably a mixture of weight lifting and cardio. Try Jamie Eason's LiveFit trainer on bodybuilding.com if you want a written program. See ticker for proof you can eat sugar and lose belly fat.

100% up to you. I eat one meal a day that's 1000-1300 calories, and use the rest for snacks.

A calorie is a unit of measurement for energy. That's it. If you provide your body with less units of energy than it needs to maintain your body weight, you will lose weight. If you provide your body with the exact number of units of energy to maintain weight, you will not lose weight. If you provide your body with more…

I like eating a bag of plain salad mix like a bag of chips, I'm with you there!

Also I'd like to be able to pull off that baggy sweater thing that's so popular without just looking fat. :)

I don't actually own any, but I'd like to be a size 4 pants size. Size 6 dress (my current size) is probably the smallest I can go due to the size of my ribcage, but my hips are small, so I think a 4 is possible in jeans.

1. When you are satisfied with the way your body appears, or are satisfied with the current size of your body even if you would like to further improve its appearance. 2. When you reach BMI 18.5 3. (For females) when you lose your period. 4. If you find that your maintenance intake for your body size is unsustainable for…

I have a pull-up bar in my bedroom doorway and a stool next to the door. Still can't do a full unassisted, but I knock out a few assisted whenever I pass through there. I'm SO CLOSE to a full unassisted one. Any day now, seriously.

For me, a high protein food has at least 10 g of protein per 100 calories. Eat lots of chicken breasts, egg whites, cottage cheese, and supplement with protein powder if you need to. To sneak extra protein into your day, switch to higher-protein varieties of foods you already eat. Get protein enriched cereals and granolas,…

If I'm totally out of calories for the day, a whole bag of mixed greens is about 30 cal. Eat it like a bag of chips. :)

My ribcage is protruding as well, but I'm nowhere near underweight. I have a large ribcage compared to my hips, it is what it is. If someone is actually concerned about your weight, the best you can do is just assure them that you are eating properly and have no intention of becoming underweight, and thank them for their…

Sorry, you won't be able to ride for the team this year. Let the total suckage of that news motivate you to get the weight off for next year.

I use ephedrine, which is one of the few substances that actually does anything for weight loss by promoting the body's use of stored fat. However, if you're not losing weight right now, it's because you are eating too much. Taking ephedrine will not fix that. If you are not in a calorie deficit, your body will have…

You will not gain fat from alcohol as long as you are at or under your maintenance calorie intake.

1. I use TDEE method, so no. 2. Used to be 1 lb per week, but lately 1.5. Guess I need to increase calories.

I weigh the whole apple. Anything left over is just a bonus 5 calories I didn't account for.

125 pounds. I don't care to be extremely thin. 115 is pretty much at the very bottom of our healthy weight range.

Keep your house extra squeaky clean. 30 minutes to an hour a day of cleaning will keep your house super clean and help you burn some calories!

I've had propercorn sweet & salty, it's good stuff.

I leave room in my calorie intake for post-dinner snacking. I usually eat about 300-400 calories after dinnertime.

I've lost an elephant penis. Awesome.

I don't weigh that much, so I don't know if 5 pounds in a month is realistic for me, but I'm sure going to try!
