Trying to lose weight ... again
Hi all! I am a 6ft male, 22 years old, who weighs 115 kgs and my target weight is 70 kgs – this means that my weight loss goal is 45 kgs in 12 months. I have been here before; my past diets haven't worked out having never made it below 100 kgs. This time, I have the help of a personal dietician to help guide me through the…

How many calories can one survive on?
I'll be frank, I am an alcoholic. I love it, and I drink at least 1000 calories a day. Is there any way, anyway at all, to be able to lose weight and drink this much without inducing starvation?

Does allocating half of your daily calories to alcohol count as starvation?
Yes, I know, drinking is bad for you. But I'm asking just from the perspective of diet. If I am allowed 2000 calories a day, and drink 1000 calories a day as well as eating healthily the rest of the calories, can you be nutritionally sustained?

I'm not losing the amount weight I should be losing!
I started trying to lose weight a bit more than a week ago, and I have gained 1/2 a kg. I have been just under the calorie counts every day which should be losing me 1 kg per week.

My question is how long would it take for me to be able to run perhaps 3 kilometres (1.8 miles) averagely without undue fatigue with regular training? I once was very fit, and I want…

I will try to be civil.
I am not going to criticise anyone just : am I allowed to add wine bottles to my daily calorie register?

Miserable
I have decided to try to lose weight once again. I have been diagnosed with Fatty Liver disease caused by obesity and i have no idea how to make anything work out permanently. I am afraid of relapsing into smoking after almost a year of quitting (which is what started my re-obesity I am certain). I know I am capable of…

Is my alcohol intake undermining my diet?
I drink about half a bottle of wine every day with dinner and I am consistently at my planned 1000 calorie deficit at the end of the day when I go to bed. However I have read that alcohol is bad not just because it contains empty calories, but also screws up your internal digestion and metabolism. I have lost my planned…

What should I weigh, ideally?
Hello all! I am a 20 year old male who is 6 feet high and weighs 115 kgs / 254 lbs. I used to be 80 kgs / 180 lbs but back then I had hardly any muscle. What would be the ideal weight for me which removes my ridiculous amount of body fat and replace it with muscle? I've heard that muscles are heavier than fat so that makes…
