It will go off eventually.. I am at my last 10 punds to loose and its only now that I see some shrinkage. My belly definately seems less 'dense' if that makes any sense. Dont do useless torso exercises they dont help. Spot reduction was debunked ages ago. Keep dropping weight, belly fat is the last to go.

Loosing weight is not about loosing weight . It is about a change in your lifestyle for a healthier and happier you. The sooner you realize that the better off you will be.

That would be pretty much spot on, yes. HRMs (pretty much all of them) overestimate your calories burned. While it is true that there is a direct connection between heart BPM and calories burned it is far from the complete picture. THat way you could just loose weight by watching thriller movies all day long ... Or…

The answer to this is very simple. Your metabolism has two phases. Anabolic and catabolic. In an anabolic state your metabolism is making your body gain weight. that can mean muscle gain in the case where your muscles are under stress - ergo strength training and you are in a caloric surpruls, or fat gain in the case when…

Eat junk food and oreos ? really ? If you wanna gain 90% fat and 10% muscle, sure why not go ahead.
-
if you go below 1200 with exercise you NEED to eat them back, unless you want to loose hair nails bones muscle tissue and some actual fat on the side.
-
I could be wrong but you state that you do around 900 calories worth of exercise each day - that seems like a waaaay overestimate to me. That translates to about an hour and a half of moderate intensity jogging each day.. What exactly are you doing for exercise?
-
yes this sucks bad. Chocolate and junkfood in general cannot sustain you however they do give a bit of an energy boost. Sooner or later your body will start craving real food instead of empty calories and then your weight loss will get in trouble or worse. Start eating real slow food, there are plenty of delicious options.

how much are you shooting for with how much daily exercise ? kinda hard to judge without that info..

holy **** mate. you make us all look insignificant ... keep it up .. I suddenly feel very happy for a random dude on the internet .. sob sob

Belly fat is the last one to go. your body doesnt really care what you do with it it will still loose fat uniformely followed by your belly .. thats pretty much where it stores fat after it has ran out of 'natural spaces'. Followed up well by the rest if you are obese. Im sorry to break it to you but you will only loose…

im eating around 1800 a day and loosing 1-2 pound a week, altho I do 6 times a week cardio and 3 times weight training.
-
that would be a more accurate assesment , yes. doesnt change the fact she wasted 5 years of my life. Oh well. Little hickups in everyones life I suppose .. ?
-
as far as your metabolism goes it simply doesnt care if you get 2200 cals in one meal or in 6 different meals. what matters is what is comfortable for you to make your diet sustainable. get it wrong and you will find yourself bingeing just because you spread your meals wrong.

This doesn't look like a set / rep problem, sounds more of a recovery problem. Yes the first time can be painful but after it things get awesome.. (pun intended). By what you are saying it is most probably a low protein diet problem but it could also be some micronutrient missing, I doubt anyone here can say for sure. if…

Unless you are something close to a proffessional athlete you are not going to burn anything near that much. Period.
-
Okay, thanks for the replies !
-
Im not talking about the ticker ... When I signed up MFP estimated my daily caloric needs at 2200, however that has surely dropped since then but theres no update on the food diary. Im not sure how to fix this and it doesnt seem very effective :(
-
I went from 130-40/90-100 to 120/80 so definately yes.
-
You cannot get a proper measurement like that ... If you want to see wether you are gaining or loosing weight step on the counter every morning before you eat or drink. Calculate an average from that , that will be a lot more accurate. SOO you basicaly need two weeks worth of measurements to get an idea whats happening to…

Dont worry about it, enjoy your vacation. If you are concerned about bingeing just try and aim for your calorie intake to be level, as in no calorie deficit or surplus, im sure you can have a good time like that :) If you go sightseeing and be moderately active along the day your calorie needs will be probably higher…
-
Congratulations ! :) Aside from the weight loss a one year program is a huge lifestyle change achievement, you certainly deserve a pat on the back from yourself. Keep it up, you certainly have it within you, this proves it !

Well this is not the answer you are looking for BUT. There are many herbal stuff you can buy from farmacies or bio stores(including these miracle teas) but they are not necessarily healthy, + they can get quite addictive. Several of my acquaintances had personal experience with them. After they stopped drinking it they…

At your current weight and height I seriously discourage you to loose more. I would in fact rather try and GAIN. As in muscle. That being said you need to create a caloric surplus + muscle training. Treadmill running is healthy alright for your cardiovascular system (and you should keep doing it) but remember to eat back…
