Because I really have no idea what else to eat... I live in a country where people used to eat rice 3x a day - Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. @SunofaBeach14: What meats would you recommend? We don't have steak here. lol We have pigs. Tons of pigs - meaning we're in abundance of pork - not beef. Fish - yes, we also have…

Yeah..Cardio to eat more. We have this thing in the office - lunch outs - snack breaks - I call it diet breakers but it gives social life so... lol And it's not that I don't like Cardio - I don't hate it - I don't love it either but it's something I want to do but finds boring. Imagine an hour of staring at a movie you…

Ah thanks guys. I was doing the same but the calorie may be off by a huge margin... :| I usually buy bread at a local store, but it's home made, and has no standard size... Another dilemma is culture-specific food. lol

I'm.... a guy. :|

I stopped as a preventive measure. I can feel the "stress" on my wrist, especially when doing hammer curls. Machine Bench Press and Shoulder presses don't make it painful, but yeah, I feel it on my wrist. Either I became conscious or something, I really don't know. I will try to have someone teach me squats by January. For…

because I don't know the proper posture yet :(

Up. :)

Ah I see. What's the prognosis I'm to expect once I see a doctor? Is the doctor going to advice me to stop lifting at all or just certain movements that might injure my wrists?

Yes, the brace immobilizes the thumb and wrist.. And no, I haven't seen the doctor yet, probably this week. Based on your experiences, if one have Quervaine's. is it painful to lift weights, like doing bicep curls? I don't feel pain unless I exert my hand forward, away from the wrist where my wrist and thumb meet. Other…

Help. :)

Hey! Thanks for the response. I really need to get that food scale. Too bad Amazon doesn't ship here at my country. :| White rice's free either from the meal or from my grandma's farm. :o The only thing I buy is breakfast, the roasted chicken and the starbucks coffee (15 cals lol). Other foods are prepared at home. Bread,…

Is it as simple as calorie in - calorie out? Also, I've read that our bodies could go into "Starvation mode" if we eat less than what is required - which most others claim it's fiction...

Ah, yeah, I need to buy one first... lol

I have a problem that if I didn't eat heavy, I will sleep at work. Might be just in my mind, but it's my job that pays the gym, soooo.. :/ Plus, Roast Chicken = dinner? Shouldn't I eat lighter at dinner and heavier at lunch?

Weigh, as in, how "heavy"?

Should be okay now. Tnx.

Yes you can view. I haven't logged into weekends though. Do I need to give permissions and stuff? And yes, I'm 5'7". If I go to gym, lift weights for about an hour (includes rests between sets) and do cardio 30 minutes after, is it considered as moderately active or lightly active?

Yeah, I log everything. If I can't find a food, I'll try to take the one closest to it with higher calories just to have an estimate. This is the first time in my life I did calorie counting. :| And I checked the scale again, maybe you're right, I'm down to 189.5ish lbs... Not sure, but my loss usually occurs near weekend,…

Not an expert but I don't think it's humanly possible to put that many pounds overnight using candies..
