Not sure exactly the way they do it in the us but here in the UK, all milk no matter whether whole or fat free is processed and the entirety of the fat content is removed and then depending what it is going to be ie whole, 2% or 0% the exact amount of fat is added back in to ensure that every batch is the same, extra stuff…

Monday Tuesday lift Thursday Friday lift Run 5/6 days per week (4 if serious race on)

This is why TDEE is crap! Use the sedentary setting and then eat back your exercise calories simple as that. One persons idea of highly active may be different to anothers

Your maths was off - Using your calculators heres what I got Running 6min mile 0.115x135=15.525. 15.525x6= 93.15 Walking 0.036x135= 4.86, 4.86x20 97.2 So therefore we can conclude in all certaintity (if those calorific burns are correct) that walking 1mile at an average 3mph burns approximately the same as running 1mile at…

This analogy is not applicable as cars unlike humans do not improve their efficiency as they improve. By this I mean if you take a person who can run comfortably at a 5min/mile pace versus a person who is Comfortable at 10min/mile then the two will still burn roughly the same amount of calories running the same distance…

You have calculated it wrong! TDEE will always be higher than bmr. Bmr is what you require if you were in a coma I.E. Litterally what it takes to just keep you alive Your TDEE even at sedentary is higher because it includes all daily actions, eating, walking to the fridge and back, etc

Same, fell runs led to ultras whoops. My ultras are more for the challenge so I dont specifically train for them the mileage I do is considered probably the low end of average. The guy who wins the half marathon you are entering will probably run around of 90-100miles a week even for 10k races the top guys run 80/90+

You should change shoes roughly every 500 miles which at 25 miles a week is about 5-6 months so that is more than likely the problem if issues have just started to arise and werenta problem to begin with

I dont 'train for races' I run because I like running and I tend to race very couple of weeks if I can, less in winter, sp I am probably not the best person to answer but I tend to run 20-30 miles a week however raising it more now I am over an injury last week I did 70+

You found lifting boring but enjoy 1.5 hours on a rowing machine??? I could undertand rowing on a river being more interesting but staring at a wall for hour n half going forward and backward I would need a gun to my head ha. But seriously it depends on your goal! If you want to gain muscle then this is a useless routine,…

Just to clear this up milk that has sat out for less than 24 hours will do you no harm what so ever NONE even after that it will still take a while to spoil. Bear in mind all milk has been heated to kill all bugs before packaging, The only issue may be if you use Un pasturized milk (which unless you buy direct from the…

And award for most common stupid answer in the world goes to.... I have nothing against eating raw, I dont cook many of my veggies at all and I know the op never said they were doing it to lose weight, but the belief that by eating healthy raw foods it is a free for all to eat as much as you want you still have to maintain…

Yeh I suggest you eat different things, thats boring as hell and a sure fire way to fail is to eat the same thing over and over and over. Also why not eat egg yolks thats where all the nutrients are.

Yes you are! What bodybuilding.com has done is given you a target based on assumptions you have given it with regards to energy expenditure. Much simpler calculate your requirements before exercise and then eat back what you actually burn doing the phys!

They vary so wildly because without help of scientific equipment it is damn near impossible to guess exactly. Even with a heart rate monitor reults will vary. My suggestion and the way I do it is to look around and see what 3 or 4 different sites say then take a rough low average for instance for me it comes out at…

I am sorry but I personally find it a very sad state of affairs that our culture has become so reliant on eating 'out' that it is considered a challenge to go a week without doing so.

Symantics. At the end of the day it doesnt matter what you want to call it neat or TDEE you knew what I meant. the reason I do it that way is that no one will exercise and burn the exact same amount of calories each day even if they do the exact same workout. Also you will notice in my quote I did not claim to give him an…

I have a question to this, how did you measure 6000+ calories burned per day backpacking. The only reason I question it is that I run ultra trail marathons and was training in the Marines so I know about running and walking with decent weight on my back. Now I know that having that extra weight will increase calorie…

Ok I am going to actually answer the original question seing as most are just shouting their opinions and arguing with each other as normal instead of giving a straight answer. I dont include my exercise in my TDEE because it chamges so much, so I set mine at sedentary. My BMR is approx. 1450 and my TDEE is approx 1850. I…

the first thing that I saw in your post was you ate 2 slices of pizza wtf who eats two slices, seriously when we have pizza we get a medium piza each (and then trade half to het a vit of variety) I could not have just 2 slices pizza is like a pack of biscuits if its there it will be finished

Wrong Veganism= herbivore, vegetarianism can be seen in nature too for example there are plenty of animals that dint eat meat but will eat eggs etc. Gluten free, diabetic these were done for medical reasons, (if someone followsthem to lose weight then that would be a fad diet, but if they are diabetic it is to stop them…

Ok confused. Who said that raw has to be under 118 degrees? The dictionary definition of raw is 'food, Uncooked' the definition of cooking is 'the process of combining foods or ingredients and heating' Therefore raw by definition means not tampering with the food. So what you are reffering to is the partially cooked diet.…

Having looked at the ingredients it is effectively a multi vitamin, caffeine pill and a cup of geeen tea and some chilli blended together. It will raise the metabolism but as said above you will get used to it and then it will lessen the effects. It is a very expensive way of having a redbull and cup of green tea each day.…

Wrong! It, MAY cause shin splints. However the cause shin splints is more commonly attributed to a few things- stopping starting too much on runs, increasing speed or distance too fast, over pronating, or tight calves, hamstings and quads First things first as others have said have your form asessed (a running shop can do…

Ok first off at your age and BF (by that I mean that 22% if very very good for your age) weight will come off much less readily than a 20 something chubby girl. But I can tell you that eating 1100/1200 per day and not eating back exercise calories will not make you lose weight in the correct way. I would suggest adjust…

Yeh I often get that I just respond with well I have lost a good few stone and now have single digit body fat and you dont! So skipping breakfast must not always make you fat.

Its a simple as you say. Diet, exercise etc make better choices and, most importantly eat at a deficit until you reach your goal weight then when you are there figure out ypur maintaining intake and eat around that. But most important thing to remember do not deprive your self its the quickest way to fail. And one slice of…

So what you are saying is you gained a bunch of 'water weight' and then lost it using a fad crap diet plan palmed out by some loud mouthed no nothing TV personality. Which you now dont stick to and all that really happened was you cam away with some guidelines to stick to and yous started tracking. Dont bother with it just…

I have never heard of blogilates but in my head I am picturing people in spandex attempting to stretch and type at the same time.. Bend and type bend and type ;) Sorry not helpful but I so want this to be what blogilates is

The truth about all low cal frozen meal options- they are just small no secret, the reason I will never fall for weightwatchers scam or any similar
