I use a garmin. I would warn you though that the calories burned are still going to just be a guestimate to whatever metrics they have loaded into their systems. HRM's are more meant to monitor the intensity of workouts with the HR and the calories burned are just a bolt-on thing they add as a general guage. I wouldnt…

Yes. If you kept everything else the same and replaced the walking with running you would burn more, but what are the chances you are going to run 6 miles in a day? It all depends on the size of the person, but the examples would extrapolate out I think. Walking burns around 70 cals per mile for a fit person and running…

Nah. It is just eating too much. Portion sizes at restaurants and what we eat at home are just huge. Obesity is here because we eat too much, and move too little. People spend too much time sitting on their butts and too little time being active. Add that to the amount of food many eat and you have an epedemic on your hands

Easy solution. Skip a meal each day. That can save you 300-500 calories to enjoy later. WHen I go on vacation I usually dont have BF to save cals for later in the day.

You heard wrong. If you eat the same amount of calories in 1, 2, 3, 4 or 6 meals it doesnt matter.

Dont do it. If you are going to blow out your diet then at least go to a place that has good wings. Hooters wings are terrible. Wings are at least 100 cals/per so eat wisely if you do go...and make that your only meal of the day.

TL: DR. But I can pretty much get what you are saying by the title. That is why I dont pay one second of attention to estimating calories burned. I eat to my goals, and all my exercise, extra strenious work is just a bonus burn.

Concentration levels went up. Hunger levels went down. Energy went up as I starting to lose weight and get alittle bit more active. My fasts are for 24 hours and not a calender day. A normal week looks like this. Sunday 8pm (or so) until monday 8pm (or so). Fasting and up to 500 calories. Mon 8pm-tues 8pm. Eat to my TDEE…

Uh.... a consignment/second hand store?

I just eat at a normal time and not necessarily after a workout. I rarely have anything within an hour or two of any workout actually.

44 lbs since march 16th doing the 4:3 version of fasting. 3 twenty four hour cycles a week I eat 500 calories, 4 cycles I eat at my maintenance if I can even get to that many calories. It has taught my body what hunger is. Most times we think it is hunger but it is thirst, or boredom, or just our routine of what society…

Oh really? They slow down metabolism huh. Guess that is why see so many overweight monkeys........

I typically dont have any certain post cardio meall/snack that I eat. I do cardio to lose weight so I am not going to put more calories into my body just as a post cardio refuel. I understand elite athletes do this but they arent really interested in losing weight.

At this point in the game, the more you run the faster you will get. It really is that simple. Focus on the program with the running times. Keep on going with it. Once you get to that last week I would just keep repeating it up until race week and your times WILL come down just simply by putting the miles in. SIGN UP FOR…

Shocks are Fing terrible in my opinion. How people run in them is beyond me!!! The cheapo shoes from Target? Never heard of them, but they could work. I would suggest what everyone else is saying though and get properly fitted. The article talks about a guy who runs alot and I would imagine is very efficient in his running…

i fast 3 24 hour cycles each week. fasting has tremendous benefits

the more you run it the easier it becomes which in turn makes you faster. i did a half at am 8:01 pace while at 210. you do not need to be tiny to be fast. fast is a relative term.a though

ran 20:37 weighing 212. so whats the point of this thread? you can be bigger and still put out good times

Well unless you can figure out eating at a deficit without loggin then yes, you need to still log. That 16/8 is just like skipping breakfast basically and you still have to eat at a def the same way as if you followed the daily cals that MFP tells you to. The main fasting that is discussed is the every other day fast, 2…

When you aim for 1 lb a week and 500 cal per day deficit you run the risk of having issues because if you go over a little, or miscalculate or measure incorrectly then you may find a zero loss. You have a very little margin of error doing it this way.

Yes. I fast 2-3 twenty-four hour cycles a week and the other days eat my maintenance. 43 lbs since March 16th. Have relearned what hunger really is. I dont count anymore and getting near my goal weight. My body has adjusted to what it needs to actually sustain and I just now eat when I am hungry, which is less and less…

Simple. Eat less calories than you need to maintain your weight. You can eat the foods you like as you just make sure it is at a deficit.

\Dont forget the like 1800 calories burned for 3 hours of bowling!

a pro for having a gps is you dont have to bring your phone with you. people need to disconnect and free themselves of their devices. watch the look up viden

go some place else. waste of money and just avg food that they sucker you into cooking yourrelf

oh, and it isnt a meal if there is no meat involved.

Ethical reasons eh? Hope you then also dont wear any leather products, etc.

I am calling shenanigans that you are having friends losing 1 lb a day with weigh loss pills.

6 days a wk is too often to start out. go every other day. if its good try run 2 and off 1. also make sure u have proper shoes
