Anyone else take a week-long diet break??
I feel like such a pain asking questions all the time! lol I originally wanted to do my diet break for about two weeks. I was on TDEE -15% cut for about 8 weeks before going back up to maintenance. My question is, do I really need to eat at TDEE for the whole two weeks? I am getting really anxious to get back to the cut, I…

Do I need a Diet Break?? Help please!
I am on my 8th week of EM2WL. First month, lost 3 pounds and 2 inches. This last month, nothing! I admit, I have had days where I junked out in the food department, but overall I have stayed true to my TDEE - 15% cut. I almost always come about 100 calories under my goal for the day. As far as exercise, I do strength…

Quick question about fat intake??
I just wanted to get a little advice about my macros. I am set at the standard 40, 30, 30 for carbs, fat, and protein. I aim to get at least 100grams of protein a day and almost always reach that plus more. I heard once before, that the most important thing is to make sure you reach your protein goals for the day, and the…

Well, I officially started strength training consistently (4-5 days/week) about 4 weeks ago and I just recently started EM2WL about two weeks ago. It took me that whole first week to really get my calories up and…

Still can't make it above my BMR!! Macro help??

Also, how can I get more calories in?? I am so full…

New Here and Need Help!
I found out my BMR and TDEE from another site. The problem is that the numbers don't seem to add up on MFP or maybe I am just confused about the whole thing! The other site has me at a BMR of 1732 and a TDEE of 2685. MFP has me set at eating 1400 calories a day. I workout 5 times a week with cardio and do 3-4 days a week…

Not enough calories??
I feel so defeated right now. I feel like I am doing everything right but the scale won't budge. I walk 5-6 times a week at a fast pace for about 45 minutes. I also do strength training about 3-4 times a week. I am set at a 1430 calorie day but I will admit most days I still have 400-600 calories remaining after I input…
