Do I need to be eating more?
I just started a new job in retail that has me on my feet for 8 hours a day. Nothing strenuous, just walking around constantly, helping people. I try to workout at least 30 minutes a day too, either strength training with moderately heavy weights or running (usually about 3 miles, sometimes HIIT intervals). I have my…

Almond Butter Blondies
Made these last night and they are SO.GOOD. Between me, mom, and dad, they're almost all gone already... Oopsies! Totally worth it! I used honey since we have a ton from my dad's beehives, and 2.5 oz of Baker's semisweet chocolate since I didn't have chocolate chunks/chips and didn't want to go to the store. 1 (16 ounce)…

App and website showing different numbers?

And I can eat and be satisfied every time I eat! I love it! Plus running 2-4 times a week, strength…

GF Meatballs!!
Just made these tonight - HUGE hit! They are juicy and full of flavor (especially if you use grassfed beef), low carb and gluten free! I skipped the cheese on top and just used a tbsp of marinara over each meatball with a side of roasted broccoli and zuchinni. YUM!!…

Activity level to calculate TDEE
I've been reading and researching a lot about eating at your TDEE and it makes so much more sense to me than simply restricting calories. Plus I was eating below my BMR for a couple months, which I now know isn't good! I calculated my TDEE using the scooby calculator, but I'm a bit unsure as to which activity level to put.…
