| Foods | Ideas for lunches to take to work - sandwich alternatives | Apr 29 2009 19:53 (UTC) |

Make a larger quantity of dinner the night before, and take the leftover's to work the next day for lunch. The good thing about sandwiches is that they are filling. It will be hard to be fulfilled on just 200-300 calories. |

What does this have to do with calorie counting or living a healthy lifestyle. Take this topic to another forum. |

Oh I reversed the whipped cram and icing, so reduce it to 600. 300 (100 x 3) for cookies 100 (50 x 2) for whipped cream 100 (100 x 1) for icing 100 (100 x 1) for caramel 600 total

I would guess safely at 650 total calories. Broken down in the following manner, but this is an estimate: 100 per cookie = 300 100 per layer (1 serving of 2 tbsp is 100) of icing = 200 100 per serving (2 tbsp) of syrup = 100 50 for the whipped cream = 50 Definitely just a guess here as I do not use this. Grand total = 650

I don't know what everyone else does, but using all these calculators is confusing. Losing weight is simple, as well as simple math. Burn more calories than you consume. Period. I weighed 193 on April 21 of this year, I met my goal weight of 165 on July 25. What I did was try and have a calorie deficit of at least 1000 everyday, while maintaing a 2000 calorie diet every day. Sometimes it was more, sometimes it was less, but that was my average. To do that, I logged everything. Sleep, eating, walking, standing, grooming, yard work, washing cars, work outs, etc. along with EVERYTHING I ate. I didn't care then and I still don't care about my BMR, RMR or any other R. If you eat wisely (which includes not eating past 7 p.m., if you can manage that based on your job or whatever), exercise regularly and are honest with yourself and truly want to lose weight, you will. Keep at it and good luck. By the way, I am a 38 y/o male, 5'5" and now weigh 162 with a muscular (from good genetics) build. I have lost 31 pounds and 5 inches from my waist from cardio and circuit training. I did NOT use any weight training. |

ONE TIME!! Once I put my mind to doing something I do it. In May 2000, after 16 years of smoking, I decided it would be best for me to quit. So I did......cold turkey! I haven't touched another one since. April 21, 2008 I weighed 193 lbs. Mind you I was active then and even more so now, but I decided to lose weight. I quit eating past 7:00 p.m. ENTIRELY, cut my calories to anywhere between 2000-2250, and exercise daily. I run every 2nd day and do circuit training on the days between. When I run, I either run hills for 4-5 miles or timed intervals on flat ground for 4-6 miles. I now weigh 168 lbs and have lost 4 inches off my waist. Once I reach my goal of 160, I will just maintain. By the way, I never deprive myself of anything. If I want it, I eat it. But then I make up for it the next day by eating less calories and more exercise. On days where I feel I need to burn more calories I even vacuum the house, sometimes 3 times a week. My wife loves it. |
