Has anyone else had this experience? I have been trying to find my maintenance calories for a while. I started at 2100 and have over a few weeks increased to 2300. (MFP says my maintenance calories should be 2700). I'm still losing a bit faster than I want to. Before that I went through a period where I wasn't counting…
I'm committed to calorie counting, and I think I may have to do it for the long haul (including maintenance). One thing just a few days have taught me is that I have NO IDEA intuitively how many calories are in my food. However, currently it is very time consuming, especially constructing the recipes. I just wanted to ask…
Can anyone recommend healthy ways to precisely "top up" calories, when you're aiming for a particular calorie limit? Often my meals fall a bit short of my target, so I sometimes have yogurt to top it up, but I don't know if this is the most healthy every day. Does anyone recommend Huel, Fast800 shakes etc. for this purpose?
I have been experimentally trying to find my maintenance calories. MFP said it should be 2720. Yesterday I put on 0.3kg after eating 2,122 calories. Is it possible, as a man, that my metabolism is that slow? (I did an hour of exercise that day as well). Has anyone else had a similar experience?
