All I care about are my meatballs and wine. Who is playing again?

Oh crap, I'm supposed to get him something?! :o

Don't be so weird!

I personally have never felt well or performed well on High fat/Low carb. Not to say that some people wouldn't. I just prefer to have a moderate and balanced approach to my macros.

HRMs aren't accurate for weight lifting, just cardio. I'd say that MFP usually overestimates the burn as well. A good place to start would be to use 50-75% of what MFP calculates, and see how you do with that.

Laying in bed.

I'm only typing on this thread because I know I don't have to worry anymore about it showing up in my newsfeed for my friends to see

This book is money well spent. I got great results from it.

Wear a HRM during that exercise and log into MFP the actual time and calorie burn and it will adjust your calories accordingly.. then it should add or subtract calories based on the deficit you told fitbit that you want to keep. The Polar brand is pretty good priced on Amazon.

Wine.

Eating "way less" today keeps you in the binging cycle. Stay moderate as much as possible and avoid crash dieting. This is a really helpful book, and the blog has lots of free information as well. http://brainoverbinge.com

Sometimes you have to "relog" in to go into the forums. The new forum format is pretty annoying now.

Why would you even weigh yourself after surgery? Its logical that the number wouldn't even be accurate anyways, so I personally wouldn't bother. Better to focus on recovery and taking care of yourself.

Pssshhh... I actually wear my fake eyelashes to pilates sometimes, whatevs! ;)

Good luck!

Life is short. I plan to enjoy mine.

Congratulations?

Eat more. Even 2 tablespoons of peanut butter with your apple adds 200 calories.

I'm more concerned that you refer to yourself as "gross". But yeah, lifting weights IS worth it. Here is a good place to start. http://www.amazon.com/The-New-Rules-Lifting-Women/dp/1583333398

Cheat meals are dumb. I just eat what I want and fit it into my daily goal. but for the record, pizza>pancakes

yup. She might night have a "perfect" body, but its "perfectly awesome"! Thanks for always being so willing to help others, you rock girly! oh and… IN for the roll

Practice not feeling guilty and moving on.

I suggest strength training and a slight deficit. New Rules Of Lifting for women is a great place to start if you haven't already. http://www.amazon.com/The-New-Rules-Lifting-Women/dp/1583333398

Of course I watch, have you met me? :tongue: Oh and I know exactly how it's going to end, as usual. Thank you Reality Steve!

Don't eat under 1200 is what. (that is why the other poster "sighed" at you.) Under eating will bite you in the butt later. You need to eat at least your BMR to keep your organs and body functioning properly. :flowerforyou:

Please eat at least 1200 calories a day, even if you have to add a scoop of peanut butter before bed. Your organs require a certain amount of fuel to function properly. You need those calories to even do things like make hair. I'm sure you don't want to start losing clumps of it. Also, if you hit a plateau at that low of…

I buy the precooked boxes of it at a Trader Joes. I take the lazy route since I'm remodeling and dont have a kitchen right now.. It lasts for weeks.
