My Fitbit One is almost always under what I actually burn, how do I know? If it was right I would have gained at least 20 lbs. by now, I have been using it since August. :) Next time I am getting a device that can "do" weight lifting.

Nice work!

The algorithm is supposed to get your steps, it is after all a pedometer with added features...Zips and Ones are not worn on your wrist, they go in a little case that you can clip to your bra, pocket or whatever.

Just the basic workout tonight, because of a truck fire a couple of nights ago my commute is a traffic nightmare till next week. Workout A (Thurs) Overhead Press, Barbell - 5 x 5 - 75 Barbell Row, Bent Over - 5 x 5 - 105 Squats 7 x 5 - 175 (first 2 were more of a warmup, not as low)

All fluids count, even coffee and tea, soda pop. I only add my water to the water area and count other fluids in my beverages for the day, but I add them all together in my head when counting my total intake, I still drink a lot of plain water every day too.

When I cook something and want to log the recipe, I weigh the solids measure the liquids of what I am putting in and jot it down on a pad as I go, I log it later on, like you could get dinner going and log it in while it is cooking. Also if there are recipes you make a lot, you can use them over and over and you can edit…

Weigh solids, measure liquids.

Excellent work!

Eat within your macros (there are topics on here about how to set up your macros). Earlier on I ate mostly berries and apples (for my fruits), I still eat a lot of berries and not quite as many apples, but I eat bananas all the time for potassium (to help prevent water retention since I lift). Fruits are good things.

Nice workout tonight. Workout B (Mon) Flat Dumbbell Fly - 5 x 5 - 40 Bench press - 1 x 5 - 100 Bench press - 1 x 5 - 95 Bench press - 5 x 5 - 90 Squats 5 x 5 - 175 Deadlift 1 x 5 - 90 Deadlift 1 x 5 - 190

You have described both my cats to a "T".

It is always too low for mine, but I have a One, by about 200-300 most days.

I am at a normal BMI now, but I want to get a little lower in the normal range, but I don't really care about BMI, I am focused on body fat. That said, when I started this I was obese (over 30 BMI is not overweight, it is obese) and I felt and looked pretty bad. I still loved myself, yes, but I sure didn't want to keep…

I agree with you, people should do what is best for them, not society.

I want to be strong, healthy and fit, whatever size that is works for me; actually I feel pretty strong, healthy and fit right now, but goals to stay and be even more strong, fit and healthy are a good thing.
