I have lost 100lbs but i still have 200lbs to go, so i cannot say that i am not HUGE anymore. But knowing how people can lose the weight if they want, because i made it, makes me think different about stuff i hear from those who want to lose, but do it wrong. Like a friend of me says "This game is a great diet because i…

i feel too crappy when i'm sick to workout others have no problem with that. I think it is wise to listen to your body. When your body can handle it.. why not. When you feel like S**t don't do it. Your body knows what's good for you :)

Actually not a male.. when i started i was a woman (still am *lol*) with about 500lbs and 6'3'' tall.. and i had an intake of 3700 which was absolutely correct.. it really depends on how tall, how heavy you are and if you move at all.. when i think that if i would have an active all day life i would have been over 4000 is…

yay that's awesome, gratulations :)

From what i understand that happens because you are supposed to eat them. The daily goal is already a deficit to lose weight. When you now exercise you burn even more calories which leads to a higher deficit, which can make your body cling to the fat because it thinks you are going to starve yourself.

yes i think when the hunger is really not there to eat i will try to take in the calories with something to drink. It's really not useful for me to force myself to eat right when i got away from the "i eat because it's there and because i'm breathing" thing :) But with some fruits and milk i'm sure i can make some nice…

Wanted to say thanks to everyone who replied. Lack of sleep (also because of the heat) makes me always a bit grumpy so i appeared like that my apologies. If not - in my eyes i sounded like it at some points so i still do it *lol* I got some berries and yogurt and a vitamin drink i had and got at least over 1300 cals and…

I tried things like yogurt with frozen berries. It was nice and refreshing but did not really help. I'm not a smoothie fan though, so i did not try those. I still have some berries and yogurt i might just try get some of that down to get a bit higher before i go to bed.

4lafz: i just noticed that my answer to you could be seen as rather ungrateful and wanted to say that i did not mean it like that :) I just thought that i know the things of how bad it is not to eat enough and that the problem does not lie in not willing to eat but in not being hungry because of the heat. I will try the…

Thank you about the info on the Protein shake, i'll see if i can get the things together and try it :)

About that keeping the metabolism up i hear lots of different things. From people here and from doctors. I eat when i am hungry, i cannot force an apple down when i am not hungry. And the ones say it is important to eat to those times to keep it running, others say it does not have any influence. And of course i know that…

I actually have no idea what protein shakes are *lol* i hear about them all the time on this site, but never saw them in RL in a shop. But from what i see on the internet, i can't afford that (no income two people house hold). Are there ways to make something like that out of fresh things? All i found are powders for…

Wow i've lost a new born calf... wow now that's motivating...thanks for posting this :)

I'm reading what falls into my hands, no matter the genre. Right now i am reading the first Book of "The Wheel of Time" i got from my bestie for Christmas

That is absolutely awesome, congratulations :):flowerforyou:

I totally agree with that has been said no matter how high the weight is to loose that the way is the same and we all have our struggles. I did never say that this is not the case, and i would never forbid anyone to rant and vent about anything, matter how high the hurdle is. But that i would not forbid and understand that…

I agree.. i am over 400 lbs and when i hear someone who is less overweight talk like their life is over or they are so fat ugly and stuff it makes me feel really really bad, because i think that is how they see me, and yeah it hurts a lot. I know it is not meant to make me feel bad but that happens all by itself, not…

:love: Germany :)

I put everything on one day that i ate before getting up in the "morning" after my good night sleep. So when i stand up in the middle of the night to have a snack i have it in my snacks of the day before.

I find it interesting that when i hit complete and get the notice... then hit "make additional notes" do not really change anything but when i hit again the number is much much lower... wonder why that is..

I am going to be 31 soon and still have to lose about 200lbs.. feel free to friend me... pft you know what, i'll send you a request :)

It totally depends where you start. When you start very very high like i did, the 100lbs can go down pretty fast, but most will be water weight. I started at 550lbs and i am convinced that getting down 100lbs from there is MUCH MUCH easier than from for example 350lbs.

I totally agree, you definitely should. it is a great way to see results when the scale refuses to spit them out. But also great for control to solve some problems like when you don't lose weight but inches that you don't become frustrated. Or when your scale is broken, that you still see where you are going to. There are…

Since we work with kilogram here that will most likely not apply to any of you but here it is height minus 100... so if i am 1.90 meters tall (which i am - that is 6'3'' for you) that would be that i should be at 90 kg (198 lbs). Seeing that it is maybe my height in pound plus about 10 lbs :) At least that is what doctors…

Absolutely a big difference. The size of portions are from half to a quarter to what i had before. But also in how i eat. Before i got my food, stuffed it in as fast as possible because i was hungry (i always was) and done. Now i take a bite, put away cutlery, enjoy the bite i have for a bit before i take the next bite. To…

voted, good luck :flowerforyou:

A quote of a website i found about BMR that helped me to understand it all better. It also mentions those 3500 calories you talked about: "Calorie Needs to lose weight There are approximately 3500 calories in a pound of stored body fat. So, if you create a 3500-calorie deficit through diet, exercise or a combination of…

With not having the money either i do not think it is an excuse. When i get fresh veggis/meat it is mostly because they have been on discount, otherwise it is frozen stuff, because the fresh is really damn expensive. And when you already struggle with your money or do not have lots of month left at the end of money or…

holy moly that sounds so tasty... can't wait to try it out, thank you for sharing

For me breakfast is the first meal - no matter if within the first hour or without 5 hours... first is first
