Which TDEE for me?
Do you all follow the TDEE given by MFP for your maintenance days? I feel that mine is very high. I weigh 161lb (after fasting twice in the week), am a teacher so am on my feet quite a bit, but do not exercise. The only time I exercise is when I have eaten (or plan to eat) too many cals and need to burn them off. I put my…

Need some advice urgently!
I used to have an intake of 1400 cals, would walk 30 mins per day at 5mph on the treadmill, twisting and arms swinging for maximum effect, usually being just under cals each day. This was not working, and so I figured that my body was getting used to what I was doing. So I decided to reduce cals to 1200, despite warning…

Does anyone have any nutritional values for this 'fake' Baileys drink? I know it is only 14.5% alcohol compared to Baileys at 17% but I have no idea after searching for ages on the calories and fat content etc.

The scales lied for a day!!
I am sooooo annoyed! I planned this summer holiday to spend 6 week working hard to shift lots of weight and get into my new clothes for September. I spent two weeks solid eating within MFP limits and exercising, then went on holiday to Dorset. With no treadmill and lots of wine etc I have no way of tracking and having not…

What am I burning?
If I exercise after a small breakfast, but burning far more calories (say if I eat 300 cals but burn 500 cals), am I burning last nights tea, or will I continue to burn for the next few hours or more? The reason I ask is because we always have a Chinese takeaway on a Friday night, and if I want to limit damage, I will burn…

Too much sugar... how harmful?
How harmful is it if you go over on your MFP sugar limit? My limit is 32g and I have gone over by 23g! I have done my exercise for the day (380 cal burn walking 5mph for 40 mins), but it only knocks off calories. How do I get rid of the excess sugar before it gets stored as fat and am I panicking over nothing?? I don't…

When will I see results?
Hi, I have been eating a normal diet, but reducing my calorie intake significantly and exercising by walking 5mph on the treadmill for at least 40 mins per day, in the morning, sometimes up to an hour. If I eat over my calorie intake I exercise more to compensate. I started to follow my plan of 1200 calories per day but…
