...there are also no equipment work out ideas on CC

you guys are just too lovely :-) thank you

good old california - used to live there for a while so i m going to see friends all over, hence staying with them hence cooking/eating with them. so i got some control over what and how much i eat for sure and in my usual day to day life i have not cut out anything either so i m hoping that i m in a good routine that will carry me over. toally positive about it.

Thank you. I was curious to get the perspective of a health care professional. There are so many posts on CC and the last one I read happen to talk about how cardio burns fat and muscle and to not loose muscle added weight trainings supports more fat loss. But just abs might not do the job as they are small muscle group in comparison.

I didnt know weight training was not recommended for young teens, didnt even think about that. so maybe something like a gymnastics class or swimming woudl be beneficial for someone young?

learn something new every day

unsalted butter keeps for weeks. it is fat and fat is a natural preservative. well, strictly speaking butter is made from milk fat, mostly about 82% the rest is water, minerals etc.

some people like to use margarine instead, which is not an animal product but careful, some have hidden fat and therefore LDL cholesterol. 

As always, everything in moderations.

PS: i had never even seen salted butter until i moved to north america so this was such a strange question to read... or the amount people use to put on absolutely everything including pancakes and muffins. weird. sorry.

thanks for sharing: i have learned all these things over the past year on CC from all you beautiful people out there. I hope others will read and learn too!

hey, i just read your post and i dont know what to say except: wow well done for loosing all this weight and looking after yourself. you look pretty.

i dont want to give you the whole 'relationships are not just looks, skinny has nothing to do with character, it is an excuse..' blah blah b/c it wont make you feel any better right now. but i still wanted to reply and tell you that i hope it is going to be ok :-)

lyri, what kind of knee injury did you have? iswimming is a great suggestion - i m gone check it with the doc in the hope i can start soon.

Hi JTH, thank you for the reply. Knowing someone listens is very helpful.

I had a look at your profile and saw that you are fairly new so i just wanted to welcome you to CC. It is so nice to get answers and give answers to people on here, very encouraging. It is journey and you can do it! One step at a time. Mini goals and rewards are a great idea. Looking at other peoples before/after pics is a good motivation and soon your own pics/measurements/weight. Stay away from the supplements though. Any questions, feel free to ask

please consult your doctor about it and be honest about your eating habits.  candy bars make your blood sugar go very high and then shoot back down but sugar cravings can also be a sign of diabetes.

what you do sounds great. well done ! the interval training will help, definatly. sometimes it can be beneficial for your metabolism to have as many calories as you burn, for example you say you burn 2100 without exercise so on a day off you would eat 2100. but honestly, just keep up the good work, the healthy eating and you will be just fine. if you happen to be someone who gets very upset up the numbers on the scale i suggest to take measurements. sometimes those tell much more. and i m sure you know everything is a combination: hormonal levels, salt and sugar intake, water retention, etc etc

keep doing what you are doing, eventually it will change. switching up the exercise is good, i dont know what you do so cant recommend anything(maybe: HIIT or indurance,swimming, running, dance class, big hike etc etc) to kick start the metabolism again. how much are you eating and burning? have you had any days on which you ate cals at maintenance level? that helps.

perfect. thank you.

i can relate to what you say but i do think its stress and distraction more than anything.

also, be careful not to get into a habit. my job is much like that all teh time, i do research and project work and sometimes work 30 hours a week and others i do 80 and have deadlines right left and centre. by all means, if you are hungry, eat! i d suggest a closer look too though.

i think using a (facial) scrub makes then seem less prominent. btw the best homemade one is salt and milk. moisturize well and then try and be proud and convidencet about who your are and all your achievements in life. convidence and a smile are attractive
