Looking for some vegetarian lunch ideas
A month ago I turned vegetarian so I'm looking for some reasonably low calorie lunches (Anything 400 or below would be good.) Recently I've been eating couscous and a variety of veg, or some form of eggs with some veg on the side but I'm getting a bit bored of this. They don't necessarily have to be quick to make or able…

Struggling to meet my calorie goal
I've had my calorie goal set at 1632 calories per day plus exercise for about a month now (This is my TDEE -15%). However for the past week I've been struggling to eat this amount. Most days my net's been about 1400. This week I've also only lost 0.2 pounds. I'm aware that their could be a large variety of reasons as to…

TDEE and exercise
For the past week or so I've been eating at TDEE -20% which for me is 1700 calories. However, I've found that I haven't been exercising as much as I originally thought (1-3 times a week). Therefore I was wondering whether it would be okay to set my daily goal as what my TDEE - 20% would be if I was sedentary (which I am…

RE: 30 Day Shred (push ups)

I don't have any problems with the other workouts within the DVD that target the arms. It's just these damned push ups. :grumble: My question is - will they get easier as I continue with…

So I was wondering if anyone had any exercises that I could do at home? Something that burns a lot of calories would be good. (Of course.) I don't have any weights or fitness…

Should I be increasing my calories?
I was looking at this thread (http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/512956-tdee-what-is-it-and-why-you-should-not-eat-below-your-bmr) and I calculated my BMR and TDEE and it came out as the following. Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) = 1621 Daily calories to maintain weight (TDEE) = 1945 To lose weight it calculated that I…

Best food to buy
Tomorrow I'm going to be going out to shop for some healthy food for me to eat for the week. I'm only planning to spend £10 as I live at home with my parents, meaning that I'll probably have the food that they have for dinner. However, as they're often eating unhealthy things for lunch and breakfast, I need to stock up on…
