Also a body wrap of tinfoil will keep the voices away.

Unfortunately you have to be really careful about entering activity level and activities. You could end up with an extra 1000 calories a day that you never did in reality. Entries for desk work, driving, etc. should be left off IMO.

Try checking out member kingkeld's indulgence diet, then you have at least one day a week where eating to satiety is the plan. http://bit.ly/nqFOrg

I took that to mean you were guesstimating, sorry. Use your info and calculate your exact daily average then shave off another 100-200 calories a day and your weightloss should pick back up.

Track your calories for a month and be sure of your intake.

The lawn is mowed, it's hot out, and it's Cinco de Mayo, time for a cerveza.

I've read that your brain on average uses 30% of your daily calories. But what I've not come across yet is info as to whether you burn more calories if you think harder. I know I certainly feel more tired on days I do the most demanding mental work, but is that more calories burned, or something else?

You lost 16 lbs in one month and treat us to an absurd emotional dump. Thanks!

Pushing too many or too much of the same thing without enough rest in between. That's what seems to bring on irritation in that area for me.

If you can face down free birthday food there's no stopping you.

Have a bud light and drop a shot of whisky in it, you'll be under 170 calories. Make your husband promise not to order any food, as it's not a good thing to have around with lowered inhibitions :D

My advice is to get as much of a head start as possible before your spouse figures out what you're up to :D

While I'm not at my final goal, I've made a significant change from where I was 3 years ago. When a friend asked me what inspired my change, I told them death did :D You've got to stare at the cold hard fact that 90% of the people that come to FS will simply fail, that's the statistical truth of it, and you've got to let that sober reminder sink in a choose to prevail anyway.

Well you might recalculate your RDI based on sedentary, then eat 500 calories less per day than that amount (regardless of exercise) to get your needed weightloss deficit.

No really, I just find this thread hilarious as it goes on endlessly.

So doctors want your untrue weight?

Well I suspect that in terms of perception it's more about ratios. If breasts shrink some and the mid section shrinks a lot than overall the breasts will appear larger.

King size snickers bar 540 calories...your welcome. Or go with plain oatmeal, quick rolled, 300 calories for double serving, and you'll be damn full before you can get that puppy down.
