I lost 37 pounds from september 26th to december 26th and I ALWAYS ate right before bed (most of the time it was a peanut butter/jelly sandwich) (it helps me to fall asleep too :P) and I very often wake up in the middle of the night to snack. I simply stayed within my calorie goal ! so yup, from my personal experience…

lewcompton answer is accurate, but here's the detailed formula if you're into complex stuff like I am ^^ : Your TDEE is calculated based on your TEE (Total Energy Expenditure) which is the total calories you require. Your TEE is calculated using the sum of the following variables : your BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) + your…

Do you do dynamic stretching and or warm-up BEFORE running and do you do static stretching AFTER running ? As for the pain, I'd suggest taking a few days off, the knees are the largest (and most important) joints in your body !!! You can't allow yourself to injure them. The fact that you used to only feel the pain during…

I have lost 20 pounds so far. I always get at least 7 hours of sleep each night and I always have the same schedule (to the point where I now wake up 5 mins before my alarm clock). The human body adapts itself based on your habits. That's why we should always go to bed at the same time (1:00am for me) and wake up at the…

Simply put, you need to understand that the happiness that you will get when you will reach your goal is incomparable to the temporary pleasure that you get when you binge eat. Of course, emotional eating gave you an instant and easy pleasure. You were angry, but eating sweets and cookies made you instantly feel a bit…

I eat 5 times a day (every 3 hours, just like you op) and EVERYDAY there's one of these meal that is either: -Protein shake + some carbs (oatmeal, bread, etc.) or -Protein bar. I found it to be a really effective way to lose weight, because let's face it, everyone else eats 3 meals a day, not 5 or 6. Also, it's quick, easy…

it's definitely good as a substitute for milk (at places where you use milk for the taste (i.e: cereals, cooking, etc.) cause it contains less calories, less fat, more vitamins, etc. (as you pointed out). However, it's not a good substitute for milk in term of proteins. Milk has quite a good protein to calorie ratio (1g…

Under $100 it's gonna be hard to find a monitor that tracks calories burned. Polar is pretty much THE reference when it comes to heart-rate monitor. I personally use the Polar FT7 ($150) and it does keep track of the calories that you burn and also saves your workout inside of the watch (so for example you get 13-10-2011 /…
