It might help if you open up your diary so we can have a look at what you are eating. That way we can give better advice Or how many calories are you eating per day? It seems that 139 total allowed carbs is very low for a 40% total

Well done! All done with EM2WL?

I live in the netherlands, and i thought the price of the ki fit was crazy compared to the bodymedia fit. Not only the monthly price, but also the price of the device. It is essentially the same software and device. Therefor I bought the bodymedia fit from amazon.com. It is no problem to subscribe if you dont live in the…

http://jcem.endojournals.org/content/early/2012/04/24/jc.2012-1444.abstract?papetoc Abstract Context: An important goal during weight loss is to maximize fat loss while preserving metabolically active fat-free mass (FFM). Massive weight loss typically results in substantial loss of FFM potentially slowing metabolic rate.…

there is also an example of a interval training schedule in the book. Pick a cardio activity you like and follow the guidelines

Ive started to notice that i need to eat most of my calories in the morning or early afternoon, if i leave it till later i stuggle finishing eating everything i had planned. I love eating anything with protein cause it will keep me full for longer, however at the moment it isnt my best friend as i struggle eating all my…

I love reading updates from people who are doing so well, are really motivated and are not scared to eat. Keep them coming!

i love the idea of giving it a name :D

I got a bodymedia fit cause i wanted to know how much calories i burned. And it is the whole reason im here doing a reset trying to fix the damage i have done by eating 1200 calories for over a year. I always thought i was sedetary not moderately active. My bodymedia fit tells me i burn between 2000 and 2400 calories per…

a 100 calories extra isnt going to gain you any weight. Enjoy having an extra snack a day or a bigger portion of something nice :D

Thats great! I cant wait to step on the scale and feel the same way as you do :) Its inspirational

^This! I have friend saying i tried EM2WL and it didnt work for me.... and most of my other friends are on 1200 cals a day. Having done all the research last weekend, i just dont understand how i could ever have lived like that for a year and im really happy im fixing what i did wrong. Im not ready to unfriend them yet,…

weight: 59.6kg 131.4 lb burned: 2093

Hang in there Noor! You can do this. Just hold on to the feeling that you know it is the right way forward, and as far as i know there hasnt been a report of this not working for anyone. Im sure you wont be the first. Im on day 2 of my reset.... yesterday reaching my goal was easy as i went out for dinner... today will be…

Started this group yesterday... most of my friends are still eating at 1200 calories... it would be nice to have some more friends that actually eat more to weigh less

Also maybe the run you want to do also has a 10k you could do instead. Its less training and easier on the body

well done!

My new day starts when i wake up after sleeping. Tho it rarely happens for me to be up after midnight anyway

I can do it because im committed to myself I can do it because i dont want to feel how i did at my heavy weight I can do it because i was more active a few months ago and rocking it I can do it because it gives me the body ive always wanted

Thanks for all the info noor, its really helping me understand and accept the situation more. I was just reading trough the post i made on the normal forum. (Suddenly people decided to reply, lol) They say that my body is telling me that 1500 is my maintanance and what the websites calculate as my TDEE must be wrong for my…

I find maintanance to be a lot harder then loosing weight, mainly in my mind. I have maintained for 3 months and so, and now i have decided to do a full metabolic reset (as described in the eat more weigh less group). This will probably mean that i wont be maintaining for a while, and might have to go back to loosing…

So ive decided today that i need to do a metabolic reset, after being on 1200 calories for just over a year and reaching my goalweight i wasnt happy with my maintenance calories. Also my Bodymedia Fit told me i burned way more then i was eating and still i was gaining. Something is wrong in my body... Ive put my calories…

Do you stop gaining at some point? Im ok with gaining a little, knowing that i will be able to cut after i did the reset and start loosing again

Thanks for your answer, it is what i thought it was after spending 2 hours today reading the forums / stickies. I guess its time for a full metabolic reset, hope that i dont gain so much back that my new jeans dont fit anymore (i got rid of my old ones cause i was maintaining for over 2 months pretty well ;) ) I did do the…

Yes, however if my body media fit tells me i burn over 2000 a day, doesnt that mean im not eating enough if i eat 1500?

High risk times for me are: 1. When im thirsty. Ive come to notice that when i dont drink enough during the day i get really peckish in the afternoon. I guess my body has problems identifying thirst over hunger. Instead of grabbing a drink to quench my thirst i will grab a piece of chocolate or something else to make the…

I have kept logging eventho i have been on maintanance for 3+ months just to keep me accountable and make sure i reach my macro's. Also to help me keep momentum going, however it failed a bit on exercise atm. Narrow road - Stay under calories every day - Exercise every day - No more than 1 unhealthy treat a day - Reaching…

Well done tho for going to the gym Fa and getting your housework done Healermoon. We might not get everything done... i didnt do the yoga i wanted to do as i ran out of time. But doing at least some of the things is great! Keep it up!

Wow this is a hard one for me today as i already have my workout planned for today. I will do NROL4W tonight. I guess i need to go shopping for food and do the yoga i didnt do yesterday. So thats my plan! edit: I have just decided to go and walk to the supermarket with 2 bags and carry them home instead of going on the bike

Im Anna, 28 years old and from the netherlands. Ive been an mfp member for over a year and hit maintenance somewhere in march. Ive stayed on here to help me maintain and to help me reach my fitness goals. Ive succeeded on the maintanance, however since i dont need the calories to eat more anymore i find it a lot harder to…
