  • Dianne well smart aboyt the cut and paste. I much prefer good accurate information rather than misleading inaccurate rubbish. The vast majority of the people who offer advice are positive and wnat others to succeed by losing weight in a safe healthy sustainable way.
  • This +1 120 would be more impressive.
  • Aggressive and to excess. The chances of water intoxication are small as you have to drink a lot in a very short space of time.
  • You dont really know how hard she is trying. She needs to be able to do another 10 push ups, so managing an extra one a day for each and take 2.5 minutes off of her run, which is already reasonably generous. OP you cna only try abd see how it goes. If I wnated it badly then i ve devoting time to it and keep doing small…
  • I think neversettles answer is pretty good. If anything exercise should be stress and anxiety relieving. The answer to 1 is eat something pre o of you don need it thn post exercise. probably soemthing with complex carbs in it. The 2nd aspect is just as probable that its not exercise relaed at all but o do with your general…
  • 25 pushups, 35 situps, and run 1.5 miles in 15:30. So far I can do about 15 pushups, 20 situps and I can run the 1.5 in about 18 minutes Surprised ay why people are saying no, but it does depend how hard she is trying. Agree its all very last minute.
  • In one sense its all about eating at a deficit for losing weight. You need to focus on your deficit for weight loss. Is personal choice but some food types are more filling and more nutritious, fruit and veg, lean protein, complex carbs. They may make it easier to maintain a consistent deficit as well as ensuring you get a…
  • I think you can make it easily if you focus and put the time in. If I wanted it badly enough then id keep doing short manageable sessions through the day at least twice a day and progressively increasing them. Fitness can come quite quickly at the beginning. I dont run, but 1.5 miles in 15:30 sounds generous. Learn how to…
  • I can imagine the great shock and am sorry that you are having to deal with it. Nobody should wnat to be with someone who is mean to you. Either you cna talk it out, maybe he is willing to go to counseling or more likely you will need to start preparing yourself for the split. You will be dazed and in shock for a while so…
  • Whilst its true you only need a calorific deficit for weight loss, you should at some stage look into nutrition and what you are eating. You might want to consider a healthy balanced diet for long term health. The reason not to worry over every little thing is it makes you unhappy and it does very little good. That means…
  • If you were at deficit, then youll be fine, but dont forget OP that weight loss results arent instantaneous and weight loss is not linear. Just keep delivering consistent deficits and it will go down over time. Worry less.
  • You are losing at a perfectly good rate, so maybe be more realistic and happy with your progress so far. You arent exercising massive amounts, not are you employing accurate methods of calorie control, so you dont know when you are at deficit. Considering that you are doing very well. Rapid weight loss results sounds too…
  • exercise burns calories as well, so it can be an influential factor in weight loss, although a calorific deficit from consumption alone will suffice.
  • Then do your reasearch plan and prepare properly. You dont have to eat healthy you do have to be at a deficit. Do not fall into the trap of using them as an excuse and accpet responsibility for everything you decide to eat.
  • Just no, it doesnt work. Focus on your own weight loss and take responsibility for it. Its a bad idea expecting the other person to get involved and ends up being an excuse for why you arent knuckling down and making your own progress. 10lbs wont take you long to lose. The suggestion is leave him alone.
  • OP if you provide more detail then perhaps people can make more tailored suggestions.
  • You managed 5 minutes which is more than 3 ,2 or4 or 1. Just go with that level and see how you do tomorrow.
  • What is it about cardio that you dont like? You dont have to do it, bit it does give you two advantages, which are improved cardio vascular function as well as burning a reasonable amount of calories depending on how much you do. As said find soemthing that you enjoy so it seems like less of a chore. Swimming, a sport,…
  • Its just DOMs http://www.nhs.uk/livewell/fitness/pages/why-do-i-feel-pain-after-exercise.aspx Your body will adjust in a short space of time and you will be able to go longer and faster.
  • Calling it a journey is a very apt description of peoples experience. OP you dont really give enough information for people to assess what you are doing and seeing if you are making it hrader than it needs to be. Its possible you havent thought it through about whats involved and are unable to commit. You can have carbs…
  • Your post doesnt make any sense. Have you mixed tenses? You dont really give any detail either. I will guess you are due to work out at a gym, but for some reason you have anxiety issues with going to the gym or doing a workout? Reasons not to be nervous: In the big scheme of things whether you do the workout or not the…

  • What they said. You need structure both for what you eat and how you exercise necayse you cnat trust yourself to have free choice. The nice thing about prelogging is that you have to think less and once its done, then you know when to stop. the danger with your tendencies is you are making lots of decisions, but dont fully…
  • I think i swapped it for MFP and the gym.
  • I assume he means from exercise. Whats your point OP? Good or bad compared to what or in what context? Its either pretty meaningless or lazy as a statement on its own.
  • How any calories did you overeat by. How many is that over maintenance (not your target)?
  • It depends. 1. Everything in moderation is a more normal approach becayse its a lifesyle thing and just earing to eat in the proportion your body can handle. The other side is restriction cna lead to binging and uneccessary misery. Pizza and icre cream ok every day if you cnat fit it into the allowance etc. 2. This does…
  • You dont have to do exercise for weight loss. Cardio is useful for heart lungs and endurance. Its also good for burning calories depending on how much you do. You have to do quite a bit though for significant burns. If you hate it then maybe find a form of it you dont hate like swimming, walking a class or a sport. If you…
  • The question is perfectly fine, but some people get very defensive about it. When its been asked previously the answers have gone on for many pages as though its a personal attack. If you want people with open diaries then make that clear in your friend requests or profile.
  • +1 to going from 4000 to 1200 is a bit too mich of a swing imo. You are going to need to sustain it for the length of your journey.

  • Its because you arent at deficit (eating more than you think and or burning less) or you arent being patient enough. You dont give any information so we cnat really know what your situation is. The answer as usual is to eat less so you are at a consistent deficit, move more or be patient. Iys normally a combination of…
