In other words, I forsee that recipe thing as only messing my counts up, possibly monstrously depending on the soup I make. I really can't assume that the portions are anything close to equal. However, I made oatmeal chocolate chip pancakes ealier. I can use it for something like that.

I can understand doing that for something relatively equally portioned like bread, but not for something that has very different serving contents like this. It would not be wise at all to asssume that each bowl has an equal or even similar amount of meat/tofu/tigerlillies. For example, the 'sustenance' sank mostly to the…

Dang it. I posted this in 'maintaining weight' instead of the general weight loss forum. What do I do? Does a mod move it? I don't see a way to delete the thread...

I couldn't be 'paleo' for paleo's sake with a straight face; the extreme ignorance of human evolutionary history, general human anatomy/physiology, and our stand-out ability to adapt to our circumstances makes me cringe. That and the pure logic fail, plain and simple. However, it would be my diet of choice if I actually…

Keep track of how much you eat at night and try to accommodate by eating less during the day. Remember that snacking itself isn't the problem; only going over your deficit is. Also, try transitioning to snacks that take a long time to eat, like (low cal) popcorn. That way you might be bored of eating by the time you're…

I don't write down truly random things because I don't have enough of an opportunity to eat them for them to add up. However, I do write down intentional tastes; for example, today I ate 1 T of Biscotti cookie spread, because I was craving the taste, and recorded 1.5 T because I'm sure it was over one. Another example is…

Unless you're taking bizarre vitamins, they shouldn't have many calories. Vitamins and minerals don't have a caloric value; only the stuff that's used to hold everything together might, and it likely is 10 or fewer. Your state of hunger will much more closely relate to when, what, and how much you last ate.

Oatmeal, eh? You can make some yummy protein pancakes: 1/2 c rolled oats 1/2 c cottage cheese 1/2 c mashed banana 1 t baking powder 1 t vanilla extract Seasonings of choice to taste (I use sugar, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, and salt) The batter should be thicker than regular batter. Pour them medium thin and give them a tad…

Lol, yeah, I was about to say that it's very easy to add 300 calories. I don't think I saw any milk in your diary. You can add three glasses of that. You can also add nutrient-dense cereals. For example, I regularly eat "quaker simply granola vanilla almond" and "oatmeal crispy crunchy almond," among others. I highly…

I love jumping rope!! I was planning to get back into it, actually. Make sure you jump on your toes and squeeze your arms. Your aim is to jump as lowly as you can and to perform the least amount of movement possible. It's almost like an isolation-type cardio exercise. If you're a beginner, don't get discouraged - people…

(Can't figure out how to erase.)

The best you can do is keep track of the ingredients themselves, estimate the entire dish, and divide it individually. Roundupb to the nearest 100th for safety.

In no case absent a bizarre medical condition does muscle exist over fat. Muscle is attached to bone and (subcutaneous) fat is stored under the skin. Otherwise, you'll either lose, maintain, or gain muscle mass - all of which depends on your diet and exercise regimen. First things first, you're not going to gain muscle and…

Also, it might help to plan your meals ahead of time with the aim of hitting calorie goals for each one. First determine how many meals you tend to eat per day. Three? Four? Five? Six? The fewer the meals, the higher calorie each meal shoukd be and the more the meals the lower calorie each meal should be. For example,…

Greetings! Unless you're massively obese, you probably should not aim to lose two lb per week. Truth is, probably most of it will not be fat, particularly considering your calorie intake and level of exercise. In short, you're exercising way too much on way too few calories. Your goal should be to get to 1,650 even with…
