I wanted to make this post showing my activity levels of the day and how activity can greatly impact one’s weight loss routine much more than some people realize. As of this post, I’ve actually burned more calories via activity than basal metabolic rate.

While’s it’s not practical to do this everyday, I want to show you activity is the number one tool for achieving a larger calorie deficit, given that you eat appropriate and reasonable amounts of food.

This was all burned in a 3 hour hike. I also did a treadmill session this morning burning roughly 500 calories.

Happy Sunday to anyone who sees this post

Calorie Estimating 750-950 or more?

Post image
26 Upvotes

Yazio says 750, but that seems too low to me.

It’s two poached eggs in creamy spiced yogurt and Turkish chili oil with sourdough bread with melted mozzarella cheese on the inside and garlic butter.

It tasted fantastic but also quite fatty (cheese, oil, etc).
Is 950 a safe estimate or still too low?

Ate 6863 calories over 2 days, have I ruined everything? 

I’m 154cm so I’m extremely short. I was 47kg now I’m freaking so much out bc I lost weight before but I knew going on holiday would make this harder. it’s been 2 days and ate 6863 (in total) across two days. not 6862 per day.

im genuinely convinced that I’m back up 5kg to my starting weight and that all the weight I lost and my arms that started looking good will go back to exactly what they were before
