I only ever drink my hot coffee black no sugar in any size, but during what little summer we get in England i do love an ice hazel nut latte

Update them, yes you will have fewer calories but you need fewer calories to maintain your smaller body. If you keep the same amount of calories you will notice a slow down in loss because the deficit is now smaller.

I once bought a packet of millies chocolate chip cookies with my regular shop, on the walk home i thought id have one or two, ten minutes laters the packet was nearly gone.

Still would

Not hating yourself for eating a certain food type can only come from you, don't label foods good and bad eat what you want as long as it fits

Im 100% sure that those pizza slices and smootie didn't put you 3500 calories over your TDEE, its just water weight from increase sodium, drink plenty of water and it will be gone in a day or 2

Pretty much this, she has made a career recently of saying some pretty f***ed up thing, but I agree with her her weight loss views

No you don't have to do a minute of exercise its just ci/co

I don't work night shift regular but I often cover when people are on holiday. I log the day like any other day if you wake up at 3pm log that as breakfast, then lunch at 8pm etc. Your body doesn't have a clock and it doesnt know if it 3am or 3pm

Well done, I remember the first time I say my scales say sub 200 its like I won the lottery

Depends on work, but I try to aim for 4x1hr minimum

The main reason I want to not try and improve my outdoor time is im applying to join the RAF and you have to be able to run 2.4k in 11:11 on a treadmill but obiviously once meet the entry requirements I will be doing alot of running outside during basic and want to get a head start.

When you complete you diary for the day it say "if every day was like this you will weigh X in 5 weeks". This give you a rough esitmate where you will be in 5 week but it relys on you eating the exact same amount everyday and doesn't take into account normal body fluctuations, its a pure mathamtical esitmate.

As someone who has donated nearly 40 times it never crossed my mind to log the calories it cost to replenish the donation, heck most people each 400-600 in biscuits and chocolate before they leave the donation centre, well I do atleast.

Their is nothing wrong with soda/diet soda or coffee so drink what ever you want as long as you count the calories in what you drink. The only reason I will advise you to cut soda out if you can't learn to limit the amount you drink or it causes you to binge on other food causing you to lose your deficit.

Sorry it was a 5 miles 8.something Km my bad

Nice first post

Leave your activity level as it is, but like most have said calories burned are overesitmated and so it the user perceived activity level. The way MFP is set up is that you eat back calories burn through exercise, because of the overestimate of calories burned its best to only eat back a % of them, most eat around 50-75% I…

Weigh the burger before cooking and if you use and oil make sure you add that

Agreed with everything that has been said here, I only use them because I tend to eat all my calories in a small window and its hard to eat enough protien in 1 meal.

Like many people have stated previously 99.99% don't care who you are when you are or what you are doing. I started at the gym 70lbs + overweight and was very self consious, but once I got it in my head that no one really cared it didnt bother me one bit. The hardest part of startiny going to the gym is getting through the…

I'm the same way now, back in my uni days a normal night out would be 8 pints + and that would get in just past buzzed, now 3-4 will get me buzzed and anything over 6 is game over. Just mean its always going to be a cheap night out for me.

I pay no attention to them anymore, when I first started I thought it was a good guide but as i got more experince if found them to off to the point I don't even press complete entry for this day so I don't get that message anymore.

Don't go from one extreme to the other, don't go from 1000+ over maintenace to as you put it a large deficit. I would just chalk it up as a good time and get back to MFP suggested deficit.

I'm in the same place as you, however I'm hoping to join the RAF, currently using 100% army fit app, it made by the MOD as the title say to get 100% army fit. Takes you stage by stage in increasing you fitness levels.

Started out weekly when i had alot to lose, was constantly seeing 1.5lb per week loss, but as I started to slow my loss down closer to goal i started to weigh bi weekly and now im past my goal im just weighing monthly because im only aiming for 0.5lbs per week. The main point is weigh as often or as little as you can…

Cheers will take a look at that, not going to be too much of a difference between the army and RAF.

I've yet to go to the recruitment centre until I get close to the requirements, when i've spoke to the recruitment twitter feed they couldn't give me a times scale of how long it take from applying to taking the fitness test. When i get to say sup 12 minutes then maybe go and speak to them. But hopefully by this time next…

I looking at IT technician depending if I meet the educational requirement if not flight ops. I can easily run for 30 minutes none stop but only at 10kph speed, can run a 5km in under 27min.
