Agreed!

I think you are over estimating the amount of cals burned in exercise. Lots of "quick adds" in your diary so it is hard to determine how clean you are eating. Plus quick adds are more likely to be inaccurate, so you may be underestimating cals eaten. If I were you, I'd start being much more attentive to logging food and be…

How about dial back on the activity level?

Here is what I do: 10 one min intervals with 15 seconds rest., after 10 rests for 2 minutes and repeat, During the interval do any of the following: Squat Lunge Step Up Bugarian Split Squat Jump Squat Push Up Side Lunge Plank Explosive Push Up

If you are hungry eat, it not don't I lost 57 lbs much of the time I was below BMR. Be sure to prioritize your calories lean protean should have priority over other macros.

I think your estimate of cals burned is off. Without knowing your height and age I have to take an educated guess at your BMR, is probably about 1,670. An estimate of burning 2,850 cals daily equates to a Harris Benedict factor of 1.6 which is fairly active. I'd be more conservative on the estimate of cals burned and…

Drop the muffin, regular soda and the cheat day. Significantly increase your activity level with cardiovascular exercise.

Experiment with different cardio machines, and use a variety of them. For weights avoid machines as much as possible and work with free weights. Dumb bells are excellent. Google good beginner dumbell workouts.
-
Excellent choice! Here is my input: What to eat: Lean protean as a foundation for every meal. To the protean add veggies (this is an all you can eat food), fruit, a limited amount of whole grains. Say good buy to starches, potatoes etc. As you get closer to your goal you can add in nuts (good fats but high cals), and sweet…

I'd do a core routine on both days.

If you are not hungry don';t eat them back. If hungry eat. I lost 57 lbs following this rule. In MY experience concerns about "starvation mode" are over blown. I do suggest you get plenty of protean and suppliment your cardio with resistance training to conserve as much muscle as you can.
-
I vary it. Sometimes I go for multiple hour walks or bike rides. Sometimes I work out with very intense 30-45 min work outs. My reasoning is we evolved doing both.
-
I scramble 1 omega egg with with 4 egg whites (not omega) together with various veggies (typically onions, sweet peppers, spinach).
-
I do something every day. Vary the type and intensity. Walk, run, bike, lift weights. Even on my "rest" days I'll go for a walk.
-
Yes, there are a lot of over estimates of cal burned in the database.
-
Lost 57 lbs with a diet Dr Pepper every weekday.
-
I rotate cardio and lifting by days. On lift days I typically don't do much cardio other than walking. On days I don;t lift I do cardio.
-
You are doing fine. You are getting enough cals and if you are not hungry, then don't worry about it. Keep with what you are doing. Make sure you get plenty of protean and do some resistance training to minimize muscle loss. You're doing fine.
-
In the spring/summer I'll do 40 bike rides so I can have an IPA!
-
After strong lifts I go for something that will burn a layer of fat off. Full body, compound lifts, super sets, high reps, little rest.

Turkish Get Ups. Full body strength and surprisingly lots of cardio. Try them!
-
The either weight more OR their estimates are not accurate. There are some crazy high estimates out there that I bet are wrong. I'm 190 male I can to intense interval training for 30 mins, be dripping in sweat and top out at 400 cals. Use multiple sources (HRM, websites, etc) to estimate your burn, and be conservative.
-
I avoided bread until I got closer to my goal weight. Now I eat some whole grains, never white breat. Focus on lean protean and veggies.

There has been recent research that people who eat later in the day have more difficultly losing weight. However, they also fond people who eat later tend to skip breakfast, and the researchers have postualated that is the issue, eating breakfast starts the metabolism. Given you are eating breakfast, your meal schedule…

Kale Chips. Kale, spray on olive oil, season. Bake at 350 for 17 mins. Try it, you'll never want potato chips again.
-
yes. The day after a hard heavy lift I can be up as much as 5 lbs.
-
Don't worry about it. You won't bulk. This is a very common concern for women, we see it expressed here all the time, and it just isn't a problem. If you want to educate yourself get the following book: "New Rules of Weight Lifting for Women" - It is an excellent resource. JUST LIFT - you'll love the results!

62. It was in 80's when I was heavy.....

Welcome, you don't need a program like WW, it is really not very hard. Just 3 simple rules: 1) Just eat lean protean, veggies, fruit. Avoid starches, limit grains to whole grains. Eat real food - don;t eat anything out of a box 2) Exercise. Vary the type and intensity. I do something every day (even on my "rest" days I do…
