Eating TDEE
i am very confused about this. I read helloitsdan's post about this but the more I read it the more confused I get. From what I can understand I have to eat below TDEE and over BMR. I'm very skeptical that this will work but I'm going to try since I've hit another plateu again only after losing 4lbs from my previous one.…

Is it more than just counting calories?
I'm sure this has been asked many times and I know the answer might be right under my nose but I've hit a wall :P I've lost quite a bit of weight so far and as a former 500cal dieter, I'm very happy and proud of myself for being able to lose a nice amount of weight the healthy way. But lately my weight has stopped at 14st…

Carbs vs Protein Vs Calories
Alrighty then, this little detail has been confusing me loads. I downloaded the MFP app on my IPAD and it has a pie chart showing the total carbs, fats and protiens I've consumed. No matter how low my calories are, no matter what I eat, my carbs are always high. I could always have about 500 calories left over and my carbs…

Constantly getting injured
Hey guys and girls, hope all is well. I have a major issue about injuring myself whenever I exercise. It's always either my back or my left leg or right foot that gets injured and it's always whenever my fitness level increases. Then I can't walk or perform my best and my level comes back down. Last week Thursday I was at…

Is my HRM being accurate?
When I'm at the gym, I burn around 500 calories when I'm doing cardio. However, when I move on to weights, my HRM calorie burn goes up in to the 800's. Is this correct? or does the calories just go up because I press the start button? :P

Can somebody advice me on my dairy entry?
Some of you guys know that I turned vegan a while ago but I have been told by my doctor that I cannot continue eating a vegan diet.

I'm LOOKING thinner but FEELING the same
is it muscle? I don't know that's what I initially thought. Here's basically my average day Fruits throughout the entire day, I don't count the calories for them. I will eat them from morning till night but only when hungry. Sometimes I'll have a light snack or have a little sandwich. For my dinner it's usually a curry I…

Binge eating, another form of self harm?
I am one of those people who have self harmed in the past and still struggle. It has increased lately since I told my bf that I was raped about four months ago, he didn't take it well and so decided that we go on a break. Why I dunno, I assume it's a guy thing or maybe he's just a selfish coward. I have binged for the past…
