So as I said I also stated at 150 kg and did eat 2400 without any excercise. That amount took my quite a way down without adjusting. As a comparison, currently I am at 85 kg, eating ~ 2000 calories and visiting gym 3 days per week and I'm still losing slowly but steadily.

Because your goal is set to too aggressive pace. MFP won't let you to starve yourself dangerously so it has 1200 calories minimum for women and 1500 for men.

2800 can be quite correct for now. As you lose weight you will adjust this downwards.

When I was 150 kg I started with eating 2400 calories per day without any exercise whstsoever. With consistent exercise probably more than that. Input your stats and activity level to MFP and see what it tells you. Also -. Hopefully with this much weight you're doing all those HIIT classes properly supervised, since it can…

Where is your protein to fuel your workouts? Trust me l, you won't gain any muscle with that diet, specially when in caloric deficit and definitely not within a month. The body composition numbers change ( providing that this change is consistent, not one day thing) because you're losing fat and fat to muscle mass ratio…

For "serious" training more expensive "serious" sports watches are best. Farmini, Polar or Suunto dedicated models. For your use however, something simpler and cheaper like Fitbit Charge 2, Alta HR, Polar A370 or Garmin Vivosport will do fine. For amething in between both price and functions wise: Garmin Vivoactive 3 and…

Reevaluate and set another one. That another one can be either lose some more, maintain or even gain some (build muscle mass for example) :smile:

Are you connecting it via some 3rd party service? Since MFP doesn't support Huawei Health as far as I know.

I'm currently on a 1555 day streak, diary open too.

You won't get any younger with weight loss that's for sure. How your face will change depends quite a lot on how much you have to/want to lose. here's a face (me): Here's another face, (also me, 5 years and -70 KG/160 pounds later):

If you haven't weighed your food so far, how do you know that you're eating 1500 calories? By simply eyeballing it your consumption can be much higher without realizing it.

Another vote for Jefit from me.

Cheapest on ewith easy to read display from all angles and 1 gram accuracy.

If it can be food then there is different yoghurts or kefir out there with probiotics on them. Useful in several ways, tastes good too

I love good Asics shoes too. Depending on preference Cayano, Nimbus and Cumulus are all very good, but they are also crazy expensive. So are Adidas Ultraboosts. I haven't found any Nike shoes I like, but many people love them. Here, in our little corner of Europe we often get very good discounts for Mizunos, so I have…

Everyone probably has their "wake up call" moment. Like if you discover that a 6XL t-shirt doesn't really fit you anymore, you start to think a bit. And if you step onto a scale after quite some time and discover that a scale with 150kg max. weight gives an error, you might get that "enough is enough" push. True story -…

As others have said, (moderate) calorie deficit is most important part. Also, there are lots of different bodyweight exercises you can do at home, YouTube is full of how-to videos about those. While I'm not a fan of all the cardio craze, if you want to increase your calorie burn a bit, then both walking and running are…

This is about optimal for me, of course not every day turns out like that:

I adjust my calorie goal usually after 5-10 kg weight drop but not more often than once a month, and usually not even that often.

It certainly is highly individual. Anything less than 150 g is not enough to me, I'll lose ability to concentrate and think creatively. Bit more lower and i I'll lose my will to live also and find it's hard to drag myself out of bed. Then again I usually keep my carb intake below 200 or so, since over that I would be over…

Slower, no less. And with fat loss slower is usually better anyway, just needs decent amount of patience. I lost ~160 pounds in total, at the beginning without any problems xcercise. I don't even want to think about how much muscle mass I lost along the way. If I had to do it all over again, I would approach it differently…

Some muscle mass loss is inevitable when in coric deficits. To minimize muscle mass loss you need to keep you calorie deficit as small as possible, while lifting heavy weights and making sure you're getting adequate amount of protein.

So I did some calculations (not easy because weird units and sizes Halo Top uses) and it seems to have about half the calories of "normal" ice cream while being about 4 times as expensive. Makes sense, most of nice things cost lot

Most new Garmin watches have quick release straps. Chest strap heart rate sensors are always way more accurate than anything optical wrist based.

There is a search button at the top of thee page. Hit it and enter "slimming world" into a search box. Watch as by magic hundreds of previous threads with exact same question appear.

It is for me, always has been, probably always will.

Currently on a1553 day streak...

~20-25% deficeit is usually considered optimal and sustainable. So exact amount depends on your TDEE which includes your activities. In my case, my TDEE should be 2400-2500 with my typical activity, though some days I am more active, so calorie burn is higher. I 'm trying to keep my calorie consumption under 2000 but not…

This overagressive approach is dangerous and not sustainable. You need to eat enough to get nessesary nutrients. Change your goal to 1 lb / week, that probably gives you closer to 1500 calories per day or more, if you still want to fast that one day. Also, you should eat back at least some of the excercise calories.

Surprisingly, default stride length works very well for me on my Fenix 3. Although I haven't really tested with real-life data that much except in the very beginning out of pure interest. Even more surprisingly distance calculated from stride length on a treadmill is within 5% of what treadmill shows. Which is way more…
