yea i do eat my exercise calories

"like"

i have also been facing the same problem. my scale hasnt moved for the past two months but the good thing is that i have been complimented by many people.

wot does it mean?

thanks a million for your detailed response. i think carbs is the culprit coz i am from south asia and we eat rice and roti/naan (indian bread) alot.

thanks kat. well my calorie intake is zig zag but my only exercise is my walk. thanks for all the suggestions

hey amanda since you are my friend so i am not gonna say thanks to you lol but thanks anyway. i have increased my goal to 1900 now. lets see if it works

thank you jay for your detailed response. i guess (but i am not sure) that i am losing fat from my face and shoulders and unfortunately both cannot be measured. my wife says that i am looking better now but the scale does not agree with her lol. anyway thanks for taking out time for me.

thanks for your response. yea i have decided to increase my intake. i do cheat myself as far as the meals are concerned especially over the weekend :P. my wife says i look better and at times i also get the same impression but i am not sure. well my only workout is my walk and i don mix it up.

becky thanks for your response. i have decided to increase my intake to 1900. lets see if it works :). thanks again

it was such a useful article. thanks alot

wow! so you got your prize hahaahah

even twice a week is normal. if you reduce your intake below 1200 you may suffer from sever constipation so be careful plz

same was the case with myself

same is the case with myself. good infor. thanks

if your calorie intake is from 1200-1400, that's pretty healthy and ideal. just stick to wot you are doing. i know its really demotivating at times when you are putting in all the efforts but not getting the desired results. at times you lose weight faster at times slower and at times you don even lose it but it doesnt…

welcome to mfp!

wow!

yea kinda confusing

well i check it every now and then. your weight fluctuates by almost 2 kgs (7lbs) in a day but you don need to be worried about it. record your weight on weekly or bi weekly basis. checking my weight frequently keeps me motivated.

wot i do is i record the calories for my whole week and then work out the average calories per day. it is impossible to consume exactly the required number of calories everyday. it does keep fluctuating, so i try to adjust my weekly average to my daily intake goal.

losing more than 2 pounds a weeks is not recommended. its not good for your health, in addition it can backfire too and you may gain a couple of pounds instead of losing one additional pound

i agree with this post. i had increased my weight by 2 kg in a very short time, but in my case the culprit was the "starvation mode" i had started consuming 200-500 calories a day.

i am worried for the eid already. i know thousands of calories are coming my way during the eid. i have decided to reduce my intake to 1200 from 1400 in order to save extra 8x200=1600 calories for eid. let's hope for the best!

this is my third week when i am losing two pounds a week. i am very happy about it. i donno if it will last longer or not. it has happened to me for the first time. the simple secret is the deficit of 1000 calories per day

i would recommend you leave your exercise for a couple of weeks and try consuming 1200-1400 calories in your diet. observe the results and then let us know plz

inspiring

Salam all, initially i had also decided to complete 114 miles during ramadan but due to some reasons i couldnt do that, however, i have lost 3.5 kgs since the start of ramadan and intend to make it 5 kg by the end of it. all of you take good care of yourselves

i lost 3.5 kg in 22 days. intend to make it 5 by the end of the month. wish me luck
