I will face this as the usual fluctuation. Yesterday I ate more than usual but I also rested more time than usual. Did it even out? Was there a significant rise in metabolism for eating more than usual yesterday as Doublecheese has been mentioning? :) Whatever it was, it's always great when the weight goes down, especially after you misbehaved the day before! Today I will try not to do that again or the weight will definitely start going up heheh.
edit: if there was weight loss due to elevated metabolism, that loss still probably can't account for so much weight in such a short time. I thought I should add this heheh.
edit: I went too hard on the pate lol. I almost forgot about the RL. Its presence has been increasing (that feeling) but it has still not manifested it self actively (to the point where it makes you move your legs) which is great! I have a doctor's appointment scheduled for the 29th. In the meanwhile, I've been taking multivitamins every day just to check if this keeps manageable while taking them, regardless of a daily exercise routine.
Going to exercise in a minute or two, and I'm looking forward for it! This is what is great about a daily exercise routine. You actually look forward for exercising such is the surplus energy, as long as you don't push it too much on each session, of course :)
edit: off to exercising! Up and awaay!
You can really feel the difference in exercising when you've had extra calories the day before either because of the calories themselves or because of the higher metabolism brought on by them.
edit: 4 Mcnuggets 190 calories?!? sigh lol
Today I sense a "dangerous" appetite lol. Those cashews are definitely addictive! I don't know what makes them so desirable but I'm constantly thinking about getting more. I'm going to get some soup instead. :)
edit: Already bought the cauliflower to make the cauliflower pizza crust! Now I just have to learn how to operate that blender I've never used lol.
I've got bad news for bacon lovers! Consumption of processed meats such as bacon, can increase the risk of heart diseases up to 42% and diabetes up to 19%. A study from Columbia University, also points out that eating as much as 14 pieces of bacon a month can damage your pulmonary function and increase pulmonary diseases.
Also, french fries, contain one of the most potent carcinogenics on food, Acrylamide, which forms with high temperatures when frying.
Diet sodas, contain aspartame (the sweetener) which is associated with numerous non-communicable diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer's, multiple sclerosis and chronic fatigue.
Most corn snacks are GMO, besides fried.
Processed sweets with sugar toppings have between 35 to 40 % saturated fat, associated with cardiac and brain disease and also cancer.
Hot dogs: An ingredient found both in hot dogs and in bacon, is sodium nitrite, a highly carcinogenic substance associated with diseases such as infant leukemia, and even brain tumors in babies. Other studies point out that sodium nitrite can trigger colon cancer. processed meat and sausage-type foods are a threat when eaten regularly.
Sodas in general: lots of sugar (on average 10 tsp), and also lots of artificial colorants and sulfites. They are also very acid, which isn't good for your kidneys (this one really surprised me :P). Your bones work as a mineral deposit. Minerals such as calcium are removed from the bones and launched in the bloodstream to help neutralize this acidity, leading to osteoporosis in the long term (this also surprised me...)
Already made frozen pizza: is filled with artificial crust conditioners and preservatives. The fact that their crust is also made with white flower also triggers insulin spikes (despite the fact that I've heard other types of flower are not so different lol).
Ice-cream (the fact that it's said the same way as "I scream" should sound the alarm. Just kidding lol): Despite the fact that there are healthier types of ice cream, the most usually sold type, has a very high amount of sugar, saturated fats, colorants and preservatives, many of which contain neurotoxins (what?!?!), which can damage your brain and nervous system.
Ok that was enough horror for one day lol
The most amazing thing is, that won't prevent me from eating many of those mentioned above... We are slaves to taste lol.

my weight never goes down when I misbehave....

That definitely doesn't make a good case for a rise in metabolism Tinkerbell101! :) Perhaps it was just the fact the I slept considerably more hours than usual heheh.

Also, this was the second day of exercise in a row, unlike in the previous days where my exercise routine was more spaced :) So many possibilities...

Do you track the total calories or do you track the ratios between fat, carbs and protein as well?

I think the best way to get your metabolism up is with increasing your muscle mass - weight training. I'm mostly doing cardio right now because I need to burn fat.. I should add in weght training 1-2x per week... I track all of the above but pay more attention to total calories.

That is definitely the best way to increase your metabolism Tinkerbell! Also, drinking lots of water helps a lot too! Eating more will raise your metabolism but, whether it's enough for one to actually lose weight as soon as waking up the next day, I don't know about that. It is said that, if you raise your metabolism by eating more than usual in one day, and eat low the next few days, that your metabolism will take some time to re-adapt and lower again and that you will benefit from a higher metabolism for the small amount of food you are eating for a small time window. I don't have a clue whether this actually happens or not though. :) Cardio will also definitely raise your metabolism (more or less depending on intensity). Probably not as much as weight training though. Oh, and you also burn a considerable amount of fat by weight training. I should also start weight training again. I'm constantly putting it off because of the inertia lol. I'm probably going to start doing it gradually, adding exercises as I go along :)

"eating more will increase your metabolism" if your metabolism is low due to eating less that is lol

The more you exercise the more calories you are supposed to burn just doing everyday activities. Don't know how scientific that is, but I like it. =)

I have read that too - about combining like 15% high calorie day to increase your metabolism.... And also that afterwards you burn more calories but it depends on the type of exercise.

they have tested it they had one guy jog for an hour an one guy not and then measured how many calories each one burned in the following 24h doing normal daily activities and the jogging one burnt more(both were same Age/height/weight).

Altendorf, sorry but I have missed this entry of yours behind Tinkerbell's post:
"Do you track the total calories or do you track the ratios between fat, carbs and protein as well?"
I am completely oblivious of my ratios between carbs protein and fat. I think that's just too much to control lol :D I only care for the total number of calories. What about you?
23 jan 14 por membro: euheide
|
Yep, Skwhite! I think that is called the after-burn effect. :D. Even if you are resting after exercising, you will still be burning more calories than you would if you had not exercised previously. I don't know if it's due to recovery or only a metabolic rise :)
23 jan 14 por membro: euheide

15%? Until now I haven't heard of a number. :) That's good! Yeah, I've heard that, the more intense the exercise is, the more it will raise your metabolism afterwards. I do believe that, very light exercise is way better than nothing though. I do light daily exercise and I feel great in terms of energy. This must, somehow, be related to my metabolism. Just guessing :)
23 jan 14 por membro: euheide

That makes sense Ninaj. I feel more energetic as I'm sitting comfortably on this chair. So that energy that is being provided to me right now must come from that higher metabolic state. And it's not a subtle difference to when I'm in on a non-exercise routine. It's a really huge difference. :)

Maybe thats why i'm so hungry after excercise! Have to always make sure i dont end up eating more than i lost! Or can.i eat 15% more?:-):-):-)
23 jan 14 por membro: njashka8
|
lol I really don't know Ninaj. Those additional 15% should supposedly only be eaten like once when your metabolism is low if I understood correctly, to boost your metabolism, all the subsequent days being your usual diet :)

Euheide, I think the neat thing about FS is that it allows you to track the fat/carb/protein ratios (FCP Profile) in our diet. I find the pie-chart very useful. My realisation early on was that my diet had far too many calories from fat and far too few from protein. As a result, I have consciously been avoiding fatty food and finding means of adding protein. It is not that I check the FCP profil of each ingredient, but rather that I have learnt to cut down on food which I know topples ratios the wrong way for me: cheese and salami, for eg. I do look at my FCP profile on a daily aggregation basis to see how close I am to my target FCP profile and to "learn what to eat more of and what to avoid". I understand that for weight loss, calories from fat should be under 25% (this may be a European guideline). Also, it is important to note - as my wife and I did - that two persons living in a household can have totally different FCP profiles since it reflects our personal preferences and tastes rather than the common shopping list! ;) It's an excellent tool!

Altendorf, I was eating too many calories from fat and was consistently low in protein. I started tracking my food on another website, before I joined FS, and the alerts that I got said the recommended amount is to eat no less than 46g of protein and the recommended maximum of calories from fat is 35%.
