TDEE Activity Level is, well, kind of... really vague.
So a lot of people on here use TDEE, BMR, TDEE+Cut, etc, etc, etc to calculate exactly how many calories their bodies need and what their macros should be set at. Well I've calculated my BMR, TDEE, TDEE plus cut. I've used the scooby page, fitness frog, everything. And while I'm not a nazi about my calories, and tend to…

Dumb question... maybe?
Are paleo and clean eating the same? If not what's the difference? Can anyone point me in the direction of some articles on both topics?

Discouraged. Need Encouragement. And more friends.
So the last few weeks have been very discouraging. I haven't been losing weight despite getting back to 5x/week workouts. I know what I am doing wrong - it's the food - well the drinking of my calories. Anyway, that's not the point. I know I need to switch things up and will do so. The problem is this happens to me on…

Need Moar Frienz
I haven't been super active over the last few months (on MFP and in real life), but I am back and I know this isn't easy so I want more friends for motivation and encouragement. In my inactivity I haven't really gained any weight, but I am not losing, and I am out of shape. Obviously, this needs to change and MFP has…

Weight Lifting and a Trainer?
So over the last 4 years, I have lost 45 pounds, with my ultimate loss goal being 60 pounds. It's been a true lifestyle change for me. The problem is, that I've lost most of this weight, by cardio and running and I've just realized all the benefits to lifting and/or strength training. I did some research and thought I…

Protein Sources without Dairy
So I really, really, like REALLY, need to bump up my protein intake, but it's pretty hard since my body rejects all things lactose and whey. I don't eat any dairy at all, and watch out for these in other food products. So outside of eating chicken and tuna (the most affordable lean protein I can find) does anyone have…

Laziness
It's one of those days... All I want to do is go home and drink wine and watch TV... instead I will walk home, do 30 Day Shred, eat a light dinner, and treat myself to one glass before bed. Compromise. Who's with me?

TDEE Logging Confusion
Forgive me if these questions are answered somewhere in the group thread, but after reading everything about TDEE, BMR, and CUT I am a little confused and need some things explained, like, super simply. So I figured out that at 158 lbs my TDEE with moderate exercise (I work out about 3 times a week and walk frequently…

Friends??
Hi All - I've JUST decided to start out on this path. Not sure how closely I'll follow all the "rules" but as I approach my life long goal I know I need a change because I want to lean and fit and full, not starving and skinny and weak. I am looking for more friends living the EM2WL lifestyle. The support will be nice…

NSV, maybe a little TMI?
So I told this to my friend today and she said it was TMI, but she's kind of conservative about everything. Anyway... today I walked to work (about 1.3 miles) in a skirt and the chub rub is no more!!!! And by chub rub I mean that chafing on your inner thigh from your legs rubbing together when you wear a skirt or dress in…

I can't lift
I don't mean that literally. I have been trying to add lifting to my workout schedule, but my issue is this... I cannot grasp straight lifting. I just cannot concentrate on it for more than like 15 minutes. I get so bored and totally space out. I forget how many reps I did or how many times I did them. I feel like I rest…

How Far Have You Come?
I know there are literally thousands of posts like this, but I really have to say this somewhere. It's been exactly 3 years and 6 months (to the day) since I stepped on the scale at a Weight Watchers meeting and was shocked and disgusted by who I had become and what I weighed... This morning I stepped on the scale at the…

New Found Confidence?
I joined My Fitness Pal last August and haven't been active in the online community at all. Recently, I've been reading some posts and find them so inspiring that I've decided to reach out with a very personal issue that I've been struggling with for the last few months. Like many of the stories I've read on the message…
