Cheat Meals
So I've been dieting for about 4 weeks now doing tons of cardio and some lifting, I probably lost around 9 pounds in that time and am trying to lose more. At this point I'm about -60 from my highest weight, and I've maintained this around 5 years, so I'm an avid exerciser and nutrition nut. My current diet is ~1400…

Intuitive Eating
Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone has tried intuitive eating and was successful in losing weight? The last month or so I've been pretty much eating whatever I want. On the daily basis I eat anywhere from 1300-2600 and I guess on average I eat about ~1600 with those zig zags. I would say I lost a couple pounds or…

Carb Cycling Results?
Hi guys, After watching a lot of videos on metabolic damage from figure competitions, a lot of girls recovered by doing carb cycling. I decided to give it a try, and I'm in the middle of my 2nd week. (Just to clarify: I never did any figure competitions, my body does plateau a lot when I try to lose weight. It really has…

Hunger between LISS and HIIT
Hi guys, I was curious if anyone else experiences severe hunger after steady state cardio and a lot less hunger after interval training? I noticed that today after I interval trained for an hour on cycling and the treadmill, my hunger wasn't nearly as severe as when I do an hour of LISS.. Just curious..

Exercising too much to lose weight? 5'4/female/lifting
Hey guys, I was wondering.. has anyone had experiences with eating too few calories and exercising too much? I was training 6-7 days a week, eating 1300 + 1 cheat meal a week, and my weightloss would constantly stall. I was doing moderate lifts (15-25 lbs. on dumbbells, 160 squat, 220 deadlift). I was thinking about…

Calorie Cycling
Hey Guys, I was wondering what you guys thought about my calorie cycling? I do feel like I'm a bit extreme with it, but average around 1400 calories a day + 1 hour of exercise (either cardio or strength, sometimes a combination). I think my diary is set to public, so if anyone would look it over that would be great!…

help!!!!!
Hi, I've been having issues with my weight these past few months. I started at 192 in May and did a 1200 calorie diet, went down to 180 in about 10 weeks, hit a plateau, and raised my calorie intake to 1400 to break the plateau. I ended at 177, and gained 5 pounds when I moved to Chicago. So at 182, I decided to hire a…

Hunger, did my metabolism get better?
Hey Guys, I don't know if anyone remembers me (these topics go by fast), but I was one of the people who hit plateau. I ended up changing my entire routine, and I'm happy to say I dropped 3-4 pounds since a couple weeks ago. I ended up raising my intake to around 1300-1450 instead of 1200, and I switched to new vegetables…

Plateau :(
Hey Guys, I've been a myfitnesspal member for a while now, but I recently just discovered the discussion boards! So I began my weightloss around May 16th, and I just hit a plateau the last couple weeks. I began with 1200-1300 calories, strength training 5 times a week, 2 off days (which I do cardio), which resulted in a 12…
