  • That sounds right to me...I have 310 exercise cals and just under 5000 steps...of course that is also counting my yoga class.
  • Thanks for the clarification! :) Like I said above, I am no medical professional...just going off what I have been told by my docs.
  • I would eat more than that. I net about 2000 cals a day. Of course, it all depends on how much you weight, and how tall you are too. And how much you work out. Whatever goal you have set, look at your goal calories for the day. Even if you eat all the calories, you will lose weight. That's why there is a goal in calories.…
  • NO...your body will go into starvation mode and store fat, which will not go away easily.
  • Also, eat back the calories that you lose when you workout. Your body still needs the fuel. I don't eat back all of the ones I burn, but I aim for eating at least 80% of my burned calories.
  • Really and truly, there is no normal when it comes to losing weight; everyone's body is different. Hormones could be playing a role in the plateau. It also could be water weight. Just keep doing what you are doing, and if after a couple of weeks you see no results, step up the workout. Also, if you are lifting weights, you…
  • I second xcellence1975. Not knowing how long ago you actually joined (it says Sept 2013, but was it at the first of the month or last week?), it looks like you have done well so far.

  • Weight training will add muscle to your body which weighs more than fat. If you want, just try cardio for about a month to see if you maintain or lose weight. Then you'll know whether it's the weight training or not. also, as dixielawgirl said, if you're hitting the gym, you need to eat back the calories you burn so your…
  • You can't always go on how your clothes feel on you either. It could be water weight, or other mitigating factors that make your clothes feel tighter. I don't always eat back my calories either. Just make sure you eat enough to not go into starvation mode. I usually go for at least 80% of my calorie goal everyday.
  • To find your BMR, you can use this website: http://www.bmi-calculator.net/bmr-calculator/ It will give you the total calories that you need to maintain.
  • Just make sure that you eat plenty of fiber...you don't want tummy troubles.
  • OH GEEZ!!! Let's see...bread, pasta, milk, yogurt, cheese, potatoes, chips, I had a whole list pop in my head. It's a really big struggle to learn portion control. It's getting easier to say "no" to cheesecake....
