[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can already tell you this thread won't go well. it's not always about the number of calories, but the quality of those calories. That said, I'll go first. I take in 1200-1300 cals a day. According to my apple watch I "burn" between 500-600 cals a day. [/quote] [b]I mean, is it though? Calories in vs. calories out is what determines your weight. Exercise is part of that. And types of calories do determine body composition and energy and health to greater and lesser extents, but 600 calories of watermelon vs. 600 calories of bread and butter is 600 calories. [/b] I am 40, 5'7'', 140-145 pounds and I probably eat 1800 calories most days. I walk about 4 miles a day. Starting weights soon because I need to. Weight is stable, even if I'd like to be 10 lbs thinner. I do NOT deny cravings and love to eat. [/quote] This statement alone tells me you know nothing about nutrition, blood sugar, and what glucose does to the body. Please educate yourself. [/quote] Yes hello you're the nut who always talks about wearing a glucose monitor. I know a decent amount about this though I doubt I'm as "educated" as you are. My point is that in general, certain types of nutrition that make you hungrier or affect appetite, though real, are not ADDING calories to your diet. They are making your brain choose to add additional calories to your diet via eating more. [/quote]
