  • I started today, and was blown away of how intense the workout was. I though I was in decent shape, but this really challenged me – and I LOVED IT. The HELP guide seemes pretty managable, so I'm really happy to have finally started. Best of luck laydies. May the fitness gods be with us :blush: PS: Feel free to friend me. I…
  • I totally agree with TravistockTaod! But because of this, I've approached MPF in a sligthly different way: Instead of relying on MFP generalisation on how many calories I need to eat to lose weight, I have changed my cal goal by removing the deficit. Instead I have replaced the cal goal whit my BMR * PAL (for me 1247 *…
  • [/quote] eat more, lift heavier things, add some HIIT into your running. [/quote] Totally agree on the heavy lifting part (and eating more part)! Gaining muscles by lifting and eating lean proteins, will help maintaining your metabolism both when active and inactive.It's also a good way of making sure you lose fat, not…

  • Ah, I know how you feel! Have you tried a day of reefed? That seems to help me when I'm stuck. When you're on a diet with a low amount of calories and a low amount of carbs, and as you're fat % drops, the level of lepton increases in your body. Lepitine is a hormon that is involved in regulating the appstite and…

  • You look amazing! Way to go :-D. I couldn't agree more that weight training is the way to go. I was a cardio fanatic for years, but it wasn't untill I was introduced to real weight training I really started to see changes in my body. Lift like a man, look like a goddess!
  • I am on a LCHF (low carb high fat) diet, and has been for six weeks now. I have had a lot of health benefits after starting the diet, and have no plans going back to my old diet! Some of the benefits are less migrene (from 2-3 times a week, to once every second week), better sleep, more energy, and faster recovery after…
  • I hope this can help :-). I don´t know if they are added any sugar, but banana in its self contains a lot of natural sugar. https://www.seeberger.de/product_info.php/language/en/info/p50_Bananenchips.html
  • Go for the second ones. It´s s a known fashion secret that nude pumps elongate your legs. And who doesn´t want that ;-)
  • If you are looking for a snack with high protein, try cottace cheese with strawberries, bluberries, and cinnamon. High protein, low carb/fat/sugar, and jummy! :-D. Mix it up with your favorite berries/fruits. 70 g cottage cheese (use more if you want more protein), 100 g strawberry, 65 g blueberry, and some cinnamon on…
  • That being said; MFP tells me I shoul eat 1200 calories, but my BMR tells me I need 1300, so I´m trusting my BMR.
  • Sorry, I don´t know if I understood the question right :-). Do you mean loosing 1 lb a week? 500 in net calories average a day, INCLUDING the calories you burn doing everyday activities should be enough for you to loose 1 lb a week. But this is what apply to me, according to my nutritionist (yes, I needed help to figure…
  • I resently asked my nutritionist about this, so I will try to give you a decent answer :-). I am supposed to have a calorie intake of 1300/day (I am 161 cm, SW 58 kg, CW 56 kg, GW 51 kg). This is my BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) according to my nutritionist. BMR is the number of calories you'd burn if you stayed in bed all…
