I’ve been on a really strict diet for the past few months. I’ve been eating anywhere from 800-1500 calories a day but burning 1000 just in the gym for 3 days a week and the other days I would do a lighter exercise like a 3-5 mile walk or a 7 vs. 7 soccer game. most of the time my calorie intake would be around 1000, and probably around 1500 maybe twice.
anyway a couple days ago I decided to up my calorie intake to about 1500 average to try to maintain my weight cause I don’t want to lose more, I just want to maintain it.
I was having a hardtime and was closer to around 1200. I feel pretty guilty eating more.
well today for breakfast I had a pb&J on 100 cal bread thins which had about 200 calories, a 387 calorie bran muffin lunch. all was fine till dinner and my dad made tacos, I had 7 and two large servings of spanish rice. the tacos were the authentic mexican kind
they were carne asada/chicken on a grilled corn tortilla with chile and onion (not like the chile and onion has calories). im guessing my calorie intake today was around 2900
do you think If tomorrow i eat around 750 calories by eating only things like salads, egg whites, zucchini, and maybe a slimfast I will be okay?
the rest of next week should I stay in the 1000 range or continue my plan back to the 1500. i don’t want to gain weight, how do i fix this?
Hi all!
Can anyone recommend a diet that is easy for 1200 calories for a female (30’s)?
We’ve got all sorts of things for weight loss: pills, diet books, surgery, and even vibrating machines you strap around your belly. But, who would have thought the answer would be as simple as drinking milk.
A new study claims consuming milk and calcium helped people lose more weight, regardless of diet.
But, before you go out and buy your own personal dairy cow, take a look at who sponsored the study.
When you hear weight-loss surgery, you think image obsessed celebrities, and the morbidly obese – not teenage girls.
Aren’t teenage girls only concerned with the latest trends at Hot Topic, and that Justin Beaver character?
No, many teenage girls spend a lot of time worrying about their weight and now more, and more teens are opting for risky lap-band surgery to lose weight.
Please, read this in its entirety. I am not lacking knowledge by any means. I just think I am missing something and would love some advice to maybe jar my memory.
I am 41, 5’7 weigh 210 look like I’m only about 180. But, Im done with the body builder look, I want to lose weight and tone. I have tried everything. I think there is something wrong that I am not getting. I dont drink any soda, i drink water all day, cup of hot tea at bedtime(no sugar). I dont eat any bread,processed foods,candy and I actually dont like salt. I love spicy foods, take a multi vitamin every day. Do pilates 3 times a week, yoga twice a week. And walk the big doggies 3-5 times a week 3-5 miles every time. I am a very busy, active person. Only sleep maybe 6 hours a night and Im ok with that, hardly ever feel drained or tired. Do not drink any alcohol. Ride bicycle to grocery store and eat mainly fruits and vegetables and nuts. I do eat bison instead of hamburger. And I have a small stomache where I have to eat 4-5 small meals a day, large meals hurt me and will bloat me. I do take fiber daily too.
Not sure if Im forgeting something? Oh-Im sure I eat around 1200-1500 calories a day have kept a diary log-so now what?? I will lose 5 lbs, then gain 7 back? I have eaten this way for years-but it seems that Im actually gaining faster? I have to have something medically wrong? I have tested bloodsugar too just in case and Im pretty darn normal. Stay around 80-112. PLEASE SOMEONE-I beg anyone to show me the light. What am I doing wrong? Or what is wrong? I have had thyroid tested 6 times!! They just say normal levels?? I am so lost. Thank you!!
In January of 2009, a young man by the name of Ben Davis had had enough. He was 358lbs, and his weight was taking its toll on his health and his personal life. Then one day he started to run…
If you haven’t seen this incredibly inspiring video, do yourself a favor and watch it. Then watch it again, and share it with others. Ben Davis’ journey is a true testament of the human spirit and what one can accomplish with dedication, hard work (and some nipple band aids!)
One of the best ways to overcome a lack of motivation to exercise, is to find a healthy role model.
But forget Angelina Jolie, or Hugh Jackman, this is Carol Burns… and she’s the real deal!
So, what’s Carol’s advice to the slackers amongst us?
Hey, get off your duff, and get over here and workout… it works for me!
Hi,
I am a male, 5’10”, 147 lbs., exercising 4-6 times a week for approx. 2 hrs per exercise. My workouts are very intensive, since I train for mountain biking races. It is not unusual for a 2 hr ride to have an altitude gain of 3,000 ft, which, when combined with technical terrain such as rocks and high altitude makes up for quite a calorie expenditure.
I do some basic strength training: pull-ups, push-ups, etc, no heavy lifting involved. My question is: what is the best approach to lose a couple of pounds without losing any muscle mass.
The reason why I am asking is because last summer I was 2 lbs lighter and that really did help on long ascents, however it had a drawback of feeling weak sometimes when overtaking a big rock or another obstacle which required raw muscle power for a few seconds at a time.
Thanks for your input!
