I can easily lose weigt but cutting back on calories and exercise. Just lift less beer cans.
New Years is never good day to start—not only being New Years, but also my birthday. Cannot pass up cake and ice cream, plus going out to dinner, etc. And, of course, skipping exercise for the day. It’s my birthday, not going to work hard.
1. People eat too much protein without burning it off.
2. You do not eat enough calories. Take your weight and multiply it by 9.8. This is the amount calories your need to consume to lose weight.
I've settled on the Murphy's Law Diet -- I've resolved to GAIN waeight because it will be great for my health.
High protien, moderate fat, low carbs. Eat as many calories as you like. Weight train don’t do cardio. Basically, do everything that Big Gov advises against.
He's started me on the way to a good exercise routine.
I don’t make resolutions about weight or anything else.
Heh!
Sometimes I use the mouse with my left hand.
I’ve lost 17 pounds in 4 months using that method.
I went from 304 pounds to 197 pounds in about six months. Basically four pounds a week. What I did was eat 1000 less calories than what my body needed to maintain weight and then I exercised 1000 calories a day. Basically that amounts to about 12,500 steps of walking which is doable for most people. So 2,000 calorie deficit a day and 14,000 a week which equals about four pounds of weight loss.
Again, this is very scientific and can easily be measured with apps you can put on your phone.
Another thing, the U.S. food pyramid is a cruel joke on the American people. 6-11 servings a day of grain is the worst thing you can do to your body.
Eat plenty of fat and protein. Full fat yogurt, eggs, cheese (the good cheeses), nuts, meats, fish, blueberries, dark chocolate (at least 88% cacao), and tons of green vegetables like broccoli, brussels sprouts, and spinach. Drenched in butter, of course. Never, never use margarine. Stay away from all high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated fats and most processed foods.
DIVORCING THE MOOCH?
Dang, don’t strain yourself, slim :-)
I’ve been doing exactly that for 3 weeks and lost 17 lbs. I want to slow it down now, and only lose about 2 lbs per week.
BTTT
“6-11 servings a day of grain is the worst thing you can do to your body.”
I’m a carb lover and that seems crazy to me!
That works for me, too.
When I was growing up, everybody was saying to use margarine instead of butter. Margarine is basically nothing but chemicals that are very disruptive to your body. Butter on the other hand is very healthy when used in moderate amounts.
Then you had the campaign against eggs. Eggs are pretty much the perfect food and everybody should be having 2-3 eggs per day as they are full of protein and vitamins and have little to no effect on cholesterol levels. But even to this day, people are saying to use egg whites only or not have eggs at all. Just criminal.
I can go on and on. But the medical community and government give extremely bad dietary advice.
