I'll commit to running 25 minutes a day and eating no more than 2000 calories. I'm hoping to reach my goal of 140 in the next 6 weeks.

Are you fighting more with loved ones? Sure sign of ketones

Micros are important agreed. I love vegetables and I prefer not to eat fruit and save my carbs for ice cream or something more fun lol

It varies. Some days I eat them back the same day; some days I bank for something I know I have coming up where I'll need them. That being said, I usually exercise the same amount daily. Most of the calories I earn are step based and since I commute to work and back on foot I can predict what I can eat or save pretty…

It really doesn't matter what time you eat; but if it helps you adhere to your daily calories then it's a great tool. I don't eat my first meal until 1pm and I would wager a guess I eat more than most women here. I cut easily on 1900 cals/day @ 145lbs so I'm not sure what sounds unhealthy about how someone else times their…

I also use Kaizen from Costco. I don't always use a full scoop and when it's 10$ off twice a year I stock up. Should be soon again

I'm in Canada and ephedrine and caffeine are OTC here; they won't do anything if your diet isn't in order but there are some negligible benefits metabolically to taking both long term. Being that this is your first post my guess is you're not there yet. Diet is and always will be number 1. There are no shortcuts (no matter…

I would be cleansing my friends and other relationships LOL I guess if that's the kind of cleanse you're going for it could work!

It's really never "too much" unless you feel it is. I walk 20K steps/day; lift 4x/week and 5 years ago I may have said that's too much but instead, because I'm adding to my routine SLOWLY, I'm finding the walking isn't enough and now that I'm lean I prefer to walk some and run 20... it's really what you're comfortable with…

It could be helpful if you get recurring urinary tract infections... otherwise save your money your liver and kidneys have been keeping up

I don't even care it's from 2012. STILL WORTH IT

I came to this thread with high expectations and it did NOT disappoint 🤣

@lar25473 I agree with your mom. That is a LOT of money to spend on a program. Everything you need can be learned here on MFP for free. I started knowing nothing and lots of great members helped me out and when you learn for yourself I feel like that's more long lasting than a program someone spoon feeds you. Just my .02$

I can't because my maintenance is 2600 but you might depending on what yours is!

I have a spotless house and no laundry because I'm the same. It's a holiday in Canada and I'm waiting for laundry to dry so I can stay busy and not boredom eat. At work I have no issue but at home ...

I'm on 180g protein 150 carb and 55 fat but I don't use MFP to log so I'm afraid I won't be much help! Good luck with your recomp goals.

Don't try that with ice cream; it's about half in grams/scale ml

I don't track it but out of curiosity I look. Most days about 75ish grams

I never experienced one

I don't do keto but a lot of my friends that do use Cronometer as it tracks net carbs. I use it simply because the database is cleaner but I can't give up my MFP fam lol

The Versa you don't have to take it off to swim

I don't stress about eating out. I've been tracking for years I know where to shave calories eating out. Toasted bread with no butter, dressings on the side, no cheese or mayo or ask it on the side. I don't do it often enough to derail my progress even if I'm WAY off on guessing

a 20oz ribeye, an entire still-warm crusty French baguette with butter, baked potato with bacon, cheddar, sour cream and more butter aaaaaaand a bag of marshmallows and Cadbury fruit and nut for dessert lol

Chicken burger and a salad. I also had about 3x more salad after the burger was gone, I don't like when my food touches too much lol

Are you trying to cut out "bad" foods or eat squeaky clean? This sounds psychological more than physiological. Try adding some peanut butter to a shake or have something more calorie dense like pizza etc.

Well ladies after much panic about losing too fast and looking flat and like I had lost lean mass last night I did an unplanned but much needed refeed of 450g carbs and this morning, while I won't be much help till the glycogen and water falls off, I was up from 146.8 to 149.6 I've never been so happy to gain weight; my…

It does for me. I do 18-20k steps on sidewalks commuting to work and sometimes on a treadmill if the weather's bad. My TDEE is 2650 @ 145lbs because of it. That's a lot of discretionary calories or reckless deficit depending on which you choose! Walking is my main form of cardio
