But you are not using MFP as your guideline, you are using the freediet website. Using their numbers it gives you.

for those of you questioning about eating exercise calories back, here is my .02.... from the website "Try not to lower your calorie intake by more than 1000 calories below maintenance. Doing so may invoke the bodies starvation response, which can lead to the Yo-yo dieting effect." I take this to mean if you green number…

I love mine and a gal on my "friends list" showed me how to get MFP numbers to correlate with my BMF numbers. This is what I do...it might seem complicated but it works for me! For example yesterday: BMF burn: 2346 Calories consumed: 1949 Calories on MFP goal: 1947 Calories burned per HRM doing C25K W5D3: 231 BMF…

Thanks Lucia, I think when she plugged in my numbers it gave her the 1558 which is close to my BMR if you don't factor in the BF% and just went off my height and weight. I told her my BMR was 1725 based on my calculations/formulas with BF%. She said "just try this for 2 weeks". She knows I have a problem with sweets and I…

Thanks Lucia, Strength training 2x/week for 30 minutes. She does 6 different exercise (w/different size weights) 3x times each. She tries to incorporate all major muscle groups. Next week she is upping my weights. Right now do exercises with 15-45 lbs (nothing less than 15 lbs). I try to do cardio 4x/week (running,…

First off to each his own...none of my business My personal opinion is if you can breastfeed great do it. but let's wean the child a little earlier than 3. If the mother wants to continue then I agree with others, pump and put in a cup. I have read there is no significant nutritional value in breast milk after a year of…

bump for later

I figured it wasn't all muscle, but it was nice to see since the scale wasn't moving....
-
I doubt it is genetics. It was done with calipers. She took each measurement 3 times. It just made me feel better because the scale hadn't moved but BF% went down by 3.4% and based on calculations I did, LBM went up by 5.88 lbs.
-
So what is it if your BF% goes down and your weight stays the same, but according to calculations your LBM goes up by 5 lbs within about a 5-6 week period? Along with all measurements going down?

Using my TDEE and creating a 15% deficit. I am using fat2fit radio to calculate my TDEE. I've been plateaued for 8 weeks now, and I've been trying the fat2fit method for about a month now.

Age: 35 5' 5" 174 BMR 1719 TDEE 2313 TDEE -15% 1966 Run 4 days, Lift 2 days (doing C25K on wk 4). On my cardio days, I will alternate between elliptical and HITT for 10 sets of 30:30.

Just an update from what I found out last night (wrote this on my status update): Here is my NSV for the day/month. Got my BF% back and down 3.4% from about 5 weeks ago. I haven't lost any weight on the scale because I have gained 5.88 lbs of muscle. My BMR went up by 52 calories. My BMR is now 1719. Now I've got to figure…

I think there are a lot of people still using this idea. It worked for me for several months until I plateaued. Now I am using a different method and I also now have a bodymedia fit armband that tells me how many calories I am burning a day, so I use that to estimate my calories to eat. There are several other groups that…

Congrats. I also have hypothyroidism. I increased mine about 4-5 weeks ago. No gain or loss. I am losing inches so I know it's working.
-
I would suggest every 10. I think that is what MFP uses.
-
Thanks I will give that a try. I know lunch this week has not been good, so next week, I am going to do better with my lunch choices. I know this weekend, especially tonight will probably not be good either, going to a baseball game with all you can eat. I am going to try to stay within my calories, but may go…
-
Thanks every one. Patience is definitely the key here. I know what to do its just doing it.
-
Thanks.....2370 is my average TDEE for non-exercise days. On days I work out it's usually about 400-500 more. I know I am close and I know this is why it's getting so hard. I also know that I am losing inches and I know it's time to throw the scale out. In my head I have my weekly goal set to 1 lbs a week, probably should…

I eat about an hour after of getting up. Due to my medication I am suppose to wait for a full hour to pass before I eat/drink anything. So I get myself ready, then my daughter and by that time I am ready to eat.

I started at 245 and it took about 25-30 lbs before anyone said anything, even my hubby. My MIL was afraid to ask, so she asked my husband and he said he didn't know because I hadn't told him....

WTG! Amazing. You are an inspiration!

I wear a bodymedia fit armband (similar to the bodybugg/fitbit) and I burn anywhere from 2200-2500 calories a day. The weekends I tend to burn more because of running errands. I try to eat anywhere from 1700-2000 a day. I have been stalled for the past 6 weeks. Not moving at all. Sure go up a pound then back down the next…
