Increasing distance
So I've "graduated" the program (I can run 30 min nonstop), but I can't seem to run any longer than this. My hips hurt, my legs get tired though my lungs could keep going. I tried breaking up the running today... 10 min intervals with 1 min walks between, but I had to stop 1 min into the last interval. (this is week 9 day…

Bottomless Pit
I've been following my plan pretty well the past few months and have seen some good losses in that time. Today, I am a bottomless pit. It's not craving, not bingeing, just hungry. I had a nap for the first time in years as well and have been tired lately. My macros are good, im not deficient in anything. What I'm wondering…

Newbie question
I'm just wondering if anyone is going a little longer on the last run interval on day 3? I'm going to do W1D3 on Monday and try on the 8th interval to run as long as I can... maybe a little psyching myself up for the increase for W2. I'm finding this first week pretty easy and feel I could run a bit longer.

Do you burn more calories when you eat more?
This may sound like a silly question, but here's what happened. Normally I eat about a 20% cut (2185) cals per day. An average calorie burn for one of my exercise sessions is about 550-600 calories via HRM. This week I'm not cutting, but eating at maintenance (2800) cals per day. Today my calorie burn for the same type of…

Eating at TDEE for a week- break
I'm planning my first "break" in eating at cut for a week in April. I wanted to be able to eat at TDEE on my week of holidays, but will probably not be as active, and have not planned for my usual exercise routines. (about 1800 cals burned in 4 sessions) Would it be more beneficial to take a week when I am exercising…

Increased TDEE over last week, should I trust it?
I got some great advice here about a week ago about how to log my exercise and reevaluate my TDEE. It's been over a week now, and I calculated my new TDEE, and it's much higher, basically I'm scared to eat more as I'm losing about a pound per week right now. My current TDEE -20% is 2185 using the scooby calculator. Using…

Best tasting protein powders
I'm currently using Vega One chocolate protein powder which is great for smoothies, but does not taste great just with water/milk or mixed in yogurt. I've tried the tropical mango as well, but again it's not great with just water. What protein powders are you using that taste really good? Please tell me where you get them,…

Logging question
I'm not sure where to ask this question, and haven't seen it come up so I will ask it here. Here is the scenario... say I eat an apple every day at lunch. I just find the apple listed under the lunch tab and click to add it. Easy. So a week later, I decide to have an apple with dinner. Why do I have to search for that…

New here, logging question
Hi everyone, I'm new to this group. I love the idea of being able to eat more and still lose weight! Restricting too many calories has never worked for me in the past, so I believe this is just the option for me. My BMR is 1762, my TDEE is 2731, making a 15% cut of 2331. I read that the TDEE incorporates your average…
