Chocolates, mainly Jaffa Cakes omg! or ice cream. Ill buy a pack once a month or something and eat it all in one go. Its just too easy which is why I restrict myself.

A lot. For example, I've ate fast food three times this week (yikes), but I just takes a guess at how much calories I've taken throughout the whole day and make sure that the total is what I want it to be.

Three large meals for me of whatever I like, about 700 calories a meal. I hate not eating a lot of food at once, so it has to be three. I only snack once between and its a banana.

Its all about CICO, no ways around that. Im sure all of you who've lost weight/gained weight have created a deficit/surplus in someway or another. For me, eating less added sugar seems to give me a flatter stomach after consuming, but thats about it.

I lost weight at first, but then starting to comfort eat because pf situations that arose in life. The food was good and it was easy to say screw it, Ill lose it down the line. In the end I gained weight, didnt want to get any bigger and realised the eating wouldnt solve my problems, so here I am again. I dont have much to…

Calorie counting is the only way Ive ever lost weight. I enjoy it to be honest and one of the reasons I will never stop is because I just hate not knowing how much Ive consumed in the day.

They dont taste great to me. On the other hand, I love fruits.

Not all of us!

I dont think anybody deserves to be ridiculed for being fat as long as they arent ridiculing others for being "too skinny" or "anorexic".

Dont eat what you want, it works for weight loss just like the twinkie diet, but it cant be that healthy. Youll be lacking in certain areas a bit and nutrients if your diet consists of mainly junk food. Id like to do that, but I cant or I wouldnt feel comfortable especially because most junk foods have low fibre for the…

Im at 163 and would like to get to at least 153 by summer.

Fast food, chocolate, crisps, cakes and soda (even diet). Obviously these foods will get eaten on days where I take a break, maybe once a week but on days where I need to hit my calorie goal, Id rather use the calories on foods that will help me hit my macros. All those foods above contain little protein and fibre so I…

Yes, only way to get true calorie input.

Im the same. Ive been on both sides, eating more and one time eating less. I felt better and recovered better eating more. I think it does depend on the illness but your body is fighting so fueling it with more energy might be good.

There are always going to be people that treat you differently for some reason. Heavy, thin and believe it or not, even muscular people get hated on but youve just gotta ignore it. Look at Rachel Frederikson, some people couldnt stop criticizing that girl back when she lost all that weight.

I think the best way is to just trial and error. Slowly cut calories and see if youre losing and how much. If youre losing too fast, up your calories.

Ive been eating 5 whole eggs a day and under 20g saturated fat a day for months. I love the balance of fat and protein in them.

Myprotein.com is good and reliable.

10 days here without but Im not totally taking it out my diet, Ill probably have one every couple of weeks. Soda doesnt really have much control over me as much as chocolate and ice cream.

But why dont you want bread?

Might wanna up those calories on cardio day. Anyway, seems like youre doing it right, its just all about patience.

Male, 20 5'7 163 lbs 1700-1800 calories a day Exercise: Two Football matches per week (I eat above maintenace on these days), strength training 3x per week.

Tomorrow is a new day, focus on that. Leave this in the past.

I eat a lot of eggs and feel fine. I think Ill agree with what Michaels is saying.

How many calories do you need to maintain your weight? If you eat 1500 calories today, you'd already burn around 1500 calories without exercise if your maintenance calories are 3000. Does that make sense?

Im in this situation, but Im not gaining weight now, just losing more fat and then Ill gain. I was doing tons of exercise( insanity everyday, football and jogging), not feeding myself enough calories, probably getting around 1200 a day which is nothing for a guy and I also wasnt eating enough protein while fasting most of…

Anything chocolatey. I can easily eat two or three big slices of cake in one go. I remember a couple of months back, I ate 8 penguin chocolates in one go before which amounted to 800 calories, I was devastated. It hasnt happened again.

I usually hit 130-150g a day and Im losing comfortably. I dont really notice any difference if I go below hundred when it comes to weight loss unless Im going to Keto amounts like under 20g. I definitely do notice the difference in the gym when eating low carbs though, I feel better eating more. I think if I could make one…

Regarding protein intake, 0.8g per pound is enough and I think you shouldn't go below that to be honest. Protein is important when losing weight to help you to hold on to as much muscle mass. Higher than 0.8g per pound is good but I think going over 1g per pound of body weight isnt neccessary, especially cause you can use…

Fully agree with everything. Also thats what I meant by my post, 1 pound is 1 pound but volume wise, muscle would way more, correct.
