This is not good. Your NET has to be the same as you're goal. In the data you posted above you need to eat 2216 calorie more to hit your goal. You're new here, and you're making a very common mistake. Trying to do thing to quickly. This leads to failure. You're not eating enough and you're exercising to much. Stick to what…

Yeah dont' be afraid, those topics are just a bunch of lies, it's pretty annoying. Especailly when it stays in your recent topics for ever. In the MFP world 4 = 10

You sound over weight, and the more over weight you are the quicker you're going to lose weight. But it does slow down. Just becase you lose as you said "daily" don't get caught up in that. In terms of your brother, it's life... people eat together sometimes you know? You can't run and hide from it. The key is to learn how…

Where do the 300 calories come from?

The original discussion on the other topic was that the TEF of protein is insignificant. The person I was discussing this issue with gave an example of a standard diet. He calculated about 200 calories thermogenic effect with a standard diet and said it's insignificant. I claimed the TEF of protein is not insignificant.…

You're the one who said the difference is less than 37 calories between the 2 examples. So I have the same question for you, "What are you arguing?"

Yet I also said... 300 calories (rounded down of both examples) is a cardio session for some people.

Not really... Got in to a discussion with another guy on another topic about this. My diet is 2,300 calories. Carbs 645 calories (28%) Protein 998 calories (43%) Fat 667 calories (29%) Thermogenic effect carbs = 80.6 calories Protein = 215 calories fat = 17 calories TEF = 312.6 calories. I do want to reduce more bodyfat, I…

I actually seen a study like that a while ago... I don't remember who did it, or here to find it again.(i should start save them). Man I wish I had it.... In terms of fat loss, the high fat group lost the most body fat. Followed by the protein then the carbs. It was actually the exact same ratios you list.

Set your weight loss goal to 0.5-1.0lbs a week. MFP will give you a calorie target. Eat food and hit that target. It's not more complicated than that.

Yes I am aware of lyle's point. My point in posting that was to show there is a significant thermogenic effect that he actually has to lower it. Using the numbers you provided, I converted them in to percentages. carbs = 12.5% Protein = 21.5% Fat = 2.5% My diet is 2,300 calories. Carbs 645 calories (28%) Protein 998…

You might like this video, it's about an hour. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwbY12qZcF4 This video is about a chemist who found a lot of flaws in how people rate the quality of food. He came up with his own method. It's based on nutritional density. His lecture shows that grains have pretty low nutritional density. When…

There was a point when I thought it was insignificant. Now I changed my mind. - Lyle Mcdonald Project

I originally thought you meant why don't we gain at the same rate we lose. Based on the tone of the thread, It looks like you're asking how come we don't gain or lose at the same rate compared to other people? Some people are more sensitive to certain things that other, such as water retention. Who knows what our real TDEE…

We don't lose at the same rate as we gain??? I think we do..

False: Calories in VS Calories Out.

The issue with those weight loss studies is that lower carb diets reduce water weight which will lower your total body weight. I don't think weight is a good indicator in these types of studies. I do agree though that protein is most thermogenic . You use more calories to digest protein. It does burn more calories, so very…
