If you are not trying to lose weight I suggest weighing yourself once a month. You don't have to start working unless you are gaining or losing about 5lbs.

Mines mostly environmental. But I have heard that some people have reactions when eating a lot a citrus, and I am allergic to what ever pesticide the put on peaches. I can eat canned peaches and organic peaches, but regular peaches give me hives, and a bad eczema rash.

Turkey is great. I like ground and Turkey breast. I will cook the whole thing and my husband and I will eat it for a week.

I Breathe I'm Hungry has great recipes, meal plans, and even shopping lists for Keto diets and low carb. And the first reply was correct unless you have diabetes or some other medical condition there is no need to ear low carb. I choose low carb because I found it to be the easiest way to restrict my calories. TL; DR You…

Things like that aren't actually zero calories. Because the fat in in an aerosol can it can be called zero fat because of the fat per air ratio. It still has calories and fat though.

You are only suppose to use a HRM during steady state cardio. Like running, walking, and workout DVDs.

I really wish people would stop saying this. BMR is just how many calories you burn laying in bed all day. Not some magic minimum number your body "needs". At about 100 over weight my BMR is ~2000 calories. I eat a net of 1700-1810 a day to lose 2lbs a week. To answer the OP. Unless you are very short and close to your…

I changed my sugar to 90g because MFPs is so low String Cheese Cottage Cheese Greek Yogurt (read the label) Hummus and veggies (carrots and cucumber) Low fat jerky Tree nuts. I like almonds and pistachios. I also like dark berries since they are so high in fiber.

For data points. It is the best way to gather data for long term loss. If you can't do that psychologically then don't. I weigh myself 4-7 times a week.

If you search under cardio you will find strength training general. It will only give you an estimate though. If you do mostly strength you may want to consider the TDEE method for tracking calories.

If you don't want to invest much money you may want to look into "You are Your Own Gym". I got the Kindle version for $10. There is also an app for $3, but I haven't used it.

Actually by definition that is endurance training, not strength.

You can get the Kindle edition of You are Your Own Gym for $10. If you can't do that you may be able to find it at the library.

I like protein snacks mostly Greek Yogurt. Check the label. Some brands are loaded with sugar. Cottage cheese String cheese Raw almonds Fiber one brownies and milk

It probably is. It may be the anti depressants aren't doing their job. I can't really give a lot of advice besides see your Dr. and talk to them about your feelings.

Beer, lattes, unsweetened vanilla almond milk, wine, cold pressed, and fresh squeezed juice, sometimes low sodium V8.

If you had sex (not necessarily sexual intercourse) with a person who produces seaman in the last 3 months I would still get a home pregnancy test. Many women get a light period or break through bleeding in the first month of being pregnant. Are you on any kind of birth control. There are many types that will cause you to…

Many people switch to TDEE -20% or less (depending on how much you need to lose) for counting calories when their focus switches to strength training. As long as you exercise routinely you no longer have to worry about exercise calories. If you still want to track minutes of cardio you need to edit all of your burns to 1…

You just need a deficit which MFP gives you with no exercise. Also you will lose weight. You will make your pants loose.

If a lower/low card diets works for you great. I would defiantly suggest still keeping under your calorie goal. Because if you 4000 calories, but only 100 carbs you will still gain weight.

A few questions Do you exercise? Are you eating your exercise calories? How much do you have to lose? What is your weekly weight lose goal? What is your baseline activity level.

Um, no. That is why in your diary it says, "You have earned so many extra calories from exercise" MFP already gives you a deficit. If you are exercising, and don't have much to lose you need to fuel your body. Also you are trying to lose weight, and make you pants loose. (sorry grammar correction)

My boyfriend, who I live with notices at about 20lbs, some friends who haven't seen me didn't notice anything. Most people start to notice at about 40lbs.

You may want to switch to TDEE and cut that by 5-10%. While 1200 calories for me would be starving myself, at 5'11 for you it is maintenance.

Do not wear cotton socks, blister city. Get some polyester socks and running tights. Also get fitted for shoes, you want them a little loose. I had to go to the men's section and wear 2 sizes bigger than most of the shoes I own.

IDK if this has been asked. But what's your activity level and weekly lose goal for MFP?

Also if you are not using a high quality HRM MFP has a tendency to overestimate your burns. Most people eat back about 75% of what MFP tells them to.

You are either eating too much or over estimating your burn, or a combination of both. What is your deficit at? how much more weight do you have to lose? Are you eating you exercise calories? If you are not eating enough you would still lose weight.

Yes I purchased the Kindle edition of this book. If you are doing the right kinds of bodyweight training then yes it will work like that. On the other hand I wouldn't count it toward extra calories burned or anything.
