What is "cutting?" can I do "cutting" even though I'm not near my goal at the moment?

Thanks Bump

My doctor recommended The South Beach Diet, in which phase 1 of the diet is actually more restrictive than a basic Ketogenic diet (but it only lasts two weeks) so I was just thinking for this first phase of SBD I could do kind of a ketogenic tweak (so that I'm allowed good fats) to the diet... which may end up being…

Congrats! You look awesome! Add me as a friend? I'm 5'6 and my goal is to be 150, also :)

Thanks! I've been wanting to get a spiral veggie slicer, as well as one of those thing to make veggie chips (I think it's called a mandolin slicer?)

Well, not all of those are bad right? I mean, you can by whole grain breat/pasta/rice that's unrefined, can't you?

Thank you everyone :) I started at 240. Im now 223. Im 5'6"

Thank you everyone for your responses, you're all doing awesome! Very motivating :)

thank you everyone, you guys are amazing. I'm actually closer to 5'5.5 than 5'6 so anyone within the 5'5/5'6 range works :)

Thank you for the information. I burn 800-900 doing Zumba if I do it for an hour (I've actually used a heart rate monitor for that one) then some days I also bike 3 miles (that burns about 200-300) and then breastfeeding burns anywhere between 300-500 & I usually don't eat over 1800 (I don't eat my exercise calories…

Is TDEE more accurate? How would I switch?

My baby is just over 6 months old, and yes she is exclusively breastfed.

Why do you want to eat back some calories from exercising? I usually don't do that. Is that part of the problem?
