Eating below BMR? Eating back exercise cals?
Hi guys, Okay, I know that both the topics in the title have pretty much been done to the death on here, but I'm stuck and in need of a little advice :-) I basically started out on MFP eating just 1200 cals a day. Now, that worked for a while, but then I hit a plateau at around 164lbs. After a few weeks of deliberating, I…

How much protein should I be eating?
Hi guys, This has probably been done to the death a million times before, but truth be told I'm a little stuck. MFP says that I should be eating 40g of protein per day. To me, this seems a little low, particularly as: a) I work out quite often (between 4 and 6 days a week) b) I regularly go over 40g anyway, without even…

For the past few months I've only managed to lose around 2lb per month. This is if I'm lucky, sometimes it's less. It's rather frustrating for me,…

I started out weighing 175lb and dropped 7lb in about 3 or 4 weeks through sensible diet and exercise. I then had to go on beta-blockers and noticed my weight loss literally stopped in it's tracks. No matter what I did,…

I'm New! :-)
Hi everyone, I'm completely new to this; joined a whole ten minutes ago, so thought I'd pop in and say hello. Currently a student living in the UK, although I'm in the middle of changing universities and I'd really like to lose a little weight before starting my new course in September. I've been eating healthily and…
