I assyme he menat he wanted advice for this He doesnt mention being bothered about sustainability or healthy rates of loss. I assume he wants to drop the most weight irrespective so he can win the competition. Was good advice from Sue.

I dont believe I said it was better as in more effective. Its just you who jumped in and decided thats what you wanted me to have said. FTAOD I use mono when I use it and am fine with it. Feel free to invent something else though.

It depends what your goals are. If its calorie burn then at equal intensity id say no for calorie burn. If its fitness you want then being able to run 40 mins continuously is going to require a higher degree of fitness than 20 in the morning and then 20 in the evening. What matters is total calorie burn.

It's a different challenge for someone trying to lose 20 in 40 days if they weigh 178lbs as opposed to 270? There also a difference losing 10 in 56 days and 20 in 40.

Leran what went wrong and if you still want to lose weight then get back at it. Try and focus a bit more.

OP you either believe saddoolt or everyone else. The standard safe healthy rates of weight loss are 1-2lb a week,, which would put your traget between 6-12lbs. You may get a boost from the beginning by losing some water weight but that will tail out and often comes back. I think its too much but good luck with it. You talk…

Or just people there for the same reason you are which is to do some exercise. They arent interested in you. Maybe go for an induction and you will see they are just normal people. Go for an induction or have a plan of what you will do then you cna follow that. Good prep can give you confidence. You already saud you have…

Did you bother to read what I wrote?

Less efficient in terms of absorption rate, which does not mean any more effective once your body has reached the correct levels of saturation. It can also mean less bloat from those who are affected by it. http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/southfacts_cee.htm If you wnat actual studies then just google them. I found a few…

Ethyl ester is more efficient, so you need less of it and its faster acting hence the premium.

You need to eat a min amount for the nutrition. This will help deal with your stress and wellbeing so you can handle the problems you face. Same goes for getting enough rest. Eat simply if need be. Keep going.

If you do the 5 fruit or veg a day then you will mostly get there. Fibre is important and is mostly found in unprocessed foods. http://www.nhs.uk/chq/pages/1141.aspx?categoryid=51

Calorie deficit comes first, so whatever you find easiest and sustainable for helping you achieve that. What works for some people might not be the bets match for you.

30lbs is awesome, its you that just not acknowledging it. I just accpeted and was pleased what the scale told me because eventually it will show up somewhere. You say youve lost inches, so it is showing just we are normally the last to notice. You have been working hard and its paying off. Do the same again and you will be…

What are you lacking confidence about?

What they all said. You are not eating 1200-1400 cals and not losing, even if you think you are. You need to tighten up and make your logging more accurate. Then you will lose.

I didnt, not a morning person. I made a habit of going to the gym just by keeping on top of it and not making excuses. The buggest challenge is getting yourself in there.

Dunno I dont fret about it, just drink regularly and often. If my urine is too dark, ill drink more, if im thirsty I drink more, if I havent drunk for a while then I will drink more. If ive been to the gym then I stay hydrated by drinking consistently.

Lifestyle change. You are going too far too one extreme. No need to be. You can eat with your friends just in moderation. If you want more calories then move more or juggle your calories better. Also if you want shape then lift heavy things.

If you arent losing its becayse you arent at a consistent deficit over time or rather you are eating more than you think , burning less or have settoo high a calorie target. You first task is to weight with a scale all your food and then log it all. You will lose weight if you have entered your details into MFP so that you…

1.) Theres nothing to stop you having success with diet only as its simply a math and deficit issue. You dont need exercise to create a deficit and MFP uses its initial deficit calculations based on no exercise. In most circumstances, even at your weight i'd suggest you can do exercise, even if its gentle walking because…

How much do you weigh in lbs? Does your walk involve a steep incline or is it on the flat?

So how do you explain eating back your exercise calories and that preventing you from losing? It should be neutral and have zero effect, unless you eat more than you burned.

Keep asking questions though it will make you more effective if you understand how it all works and will give you confidence in what you are doing.

The one i fancied. You get two yoghurts though.

nah thats not too much. The limit should be how much you can recover from. That said its food conusmption you have to address first and exercise is only a smaller influence on calorie deficits. If by going up you mean you are still increasing in weight then you need to address your food intake , weight and log it so you…

If you dont like the treadmill then try some of the other cardio options or even better lift some weights to increase the % of fat lost. I dont like treadmill as am always wary of shooting off. Stairclimber, rower, bike or eliptical all involve a different motion which can use different muscles.

Patience, you are at a big weight so with a bit coming off everywhere its hard to see, but the scales say its one. Just keep enjoying losing the weight and you will get to see it eventually. Keep up with the pics and maybe add some measurements with a tape measure. Its not something I would worry about.

A leg is rather imprecise because they can differ. Id just weigh the meat without bone and skin, there are plenty of entries for cooked and uncooked chicken meat. If you disagree with a DB entry then make your own.
