OP, this post might help you out. I doubt I explained it very well. ----> http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/931670-bmr-and-tdee-explained-for-those-needing-a-guide

MFP - I'm assuming you're asking what this acronym means? It's just the acronym for MyFitnessPal. BMR - Basal Metabolic Rate aka the amount of calories you burn in a day if you were to stay in bed all day. These are the calories you body burns to keep you alive. To lose weight, you want your BMR + calories burned from…

Nothing to do on a Friday night? Yet here you are trolling instead of being helpful...

Is your avi real life? Not really sure why everyone is being so rude about this post. It's a legitimate question posed to a forum of people who are supposed to be supportive and helpful. It's freaking MyFitnessPal. As for your question, yeah I would say it's probably just gravity pushing your stomach out. Maybe even a…

We should get this thread going on! I'm thinking joining either the Navy or Air Force after law school as a JAG. I'll add you!

I'm with ya! My ultimate goal is 95 lbs away. We can do this!

Awesome! I'll definitely look into that. Thanks.

Thanks! I was thinking of using melatonin. Is the magnesium supposed to have the same effect or? Sorry, I'm not too familiar with supplements.

I have a Fitbit Flex and I LOVE it. It really gets me off my butt and moving. I try to walk 5 miles a day and burn 3000 calories. The Flex is only $99 (cheap compared to other trackers) and comes in a bunch of different colors too. The Fitbit community is also pretty great. Oh and MFP integration! What more could you want?…

I have an Herbalife cookies n cream protein shake with milk and maybe some frozen mango and I blend it in my Magic Bullet. This is usually after my workout. My typical night is dinner > workout > post-workout shake. It makes me feel like I'm having dessert! I just make sure it fits in my calorie limit for the day and have…

I'll be 22 in July!

Hi Jasmine! Welcome :) Feel free to add me. Do you live anywhere near Gemert/Boekel? My best friend lives there :)

Thank god coffee doesn't have calories eh? :)

Thanks! Sounds like I'm gonna have to become a morning person. :P

Thanks! Will try this. I hate the heat too, hence why I'm going to law school in Michigan in the fall.

Thanks guys. I think I'll do a morning walk with my dog and the rest of my stuff in the evening and see if spreading my activity around helps. If not, I'll switch to just the morning.

Wow, that's intense! I live in El Paso so I don't even have the humidity that you guys do down in Austin. I remember how suffocating it was when I went to school in Dallas though.

Thanks for the prompt responses! Yeah, I guess working out late is an issue but its really hard to work out any other time. I'm not a member of any gym and it is literally over 100 degrees all day everywhere where I live, so the daytime is out of the question. I'll have to start getting up early then I suppose.
