  • 5'2 SW:105 CW:101 GW:95-98 I jog for 20-30 min./day for 6-7 days/week. I find that I can only burn fat with consistant exercise and my calories hover around 1100-1400.

  • Do you know your body fat percentage?
    in Am I eating too many calories? Comment by cabcab12345 August 2013
  • I'm going to borrow my brother's weights as I progress. Gotta start at measly five pounders! He's doing Body Beast right now and he's got abs, so I'll take whatever he gives me. Only problem is, I'm not sure if I should be eating maintenance calories or "lose .5 lbs a week" calories. Which would be the best route to burn…

  • See, it's what we kids do in place of having "lives."

  • I should correct myself: I'm not familiar with, nor was I expecting, the random content of the messages that are MFP at night. TUMBLR at night is weird.

  • That was the rumor which everyone took as gospel, but there is actually little or no scientific evidence to support these claims. Essentially, if eating a bigger breakfast is going to prevent you from eating ten cows later in the day, then eat a bigger breakfast. But if you aren't even hungry in the morning, you don't need…

  • Can I just say... Whierd, I'm appreciating your trolling. If nobody else is going to say it.

  • Actually, eating all of our calories in a small window is conducive to fat loss. It's called intermittent fasting, and it comes with a bunch of additional health benefits as well. If you can make it to the afternoon or evening with maybe a light snack or (if you can tolerate it and don't experience any negative side…

  • The MFP BMR calculated for me was actually 1,194, so hey, if that's more accurate, I'll use that. However, the other formulas I've seen have given me around 1300. I understand the terms perfectly. I am aware that the factor for a sedentary individual is 1.2, which, when multiplied by 1,194, results in 1433. Around 1400. I…
    in BMR and TDEE question... Comment by cabcab12345 August 2013
  • By the way, here's the official HBenedict BMR formula: Women: BMR = 655 + (9.6 X wt in kg) + (1.8 X ht in cm) - (4.7 X age in years) Note: 1 inch = 2.54 cm. 1 kg = 2.2 lbs. Example: You are female You are 17 years old You are 5'2 tall (157.48 cm) You weight 101 lbs (46 kilos) Your BMR = 655 + 412.8 + 283.46 - 79.9 =…

  • Thanks to both of you! I think I get the general idea. But still, does he suggest eating more on the on days? I don't see how not doing so could result in anything but a deficit.
    in So, how 'bout that 5:2 diet...? Comment by cabcab12345 August 2013
  • Thanks for the replies! As far as the sedentary life goes, I'm only 17 and I'm the best at not moving. Be it computer games or a good book, I spend most time sleeping or staying indoors. I'm an introvert and the whole "being an active member of society" doesn't appeal to me much. But that's for another forum :p Anyway, I…
