Every calorie tracking app is hella subscription based and so complicated for just tracking calories and macros.

Seperating foods for brakfast, dinner, lunch etc.. Forcing me to buy subscription for every thing. Even the offline things are subscription based.. I gave up, and with my little Kotlin / Compose knowledge, I made an app for tracking calories in simplest way and implemented it free Food database api so it works fine for me. I also launched on Play Store. After 1 years with MyFitnessPal this is fitted so well for my using. Play Store

Hey,

Back in May I started on my weight loss journey, after never managing to stick to it more than a couple of weeks I managed to keep it up and have lost 10kg. For the last 3-4 weeks I haven't lost or gained any weight. I did slightly increase my daily calories to average 1,400.

Does this mean this is my maintainance calorie intake and to lose any more weight I would have to decrease my calories again?

Thank you.

Starting my journey properly been working for about an year but on and off 5ft age 22 female weight 50kg focusing on building muscle not losing weight i dont mind gainaing few more kgs if it makes me strong

If my maintenace is 1700 how much macros i shoukd take if i want to build muscle

I have a really unhealthy lifestyle I am an office worker and a student. So it's hard for me to make time for gym please suggest any good way for me to meal prep plus and drop down to my original weigh I am ok with fasting and mostly eat as a habit as opposed to hungers. I am south Asian so please suggest diets accordingly.

Hello ! I'm 16M, currently 1m73 and 50 kilos tryna bulk slowly, I'm getting anywhere between 10k-15k steps a day, with moderate boxing and weight training 6x a week, and I was wondering what my maintenance calories were exactly since online calculators all give different answers

1 kg of potato + 4 roti+ 1 brazil nut+ 2 calcium tablets+ Vitamin B supplement+100 gram sweet potato+100 gram peanut . Missing vitamins:. Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid): 3.2 mg/day (AI).. Vitamin B9 (Folate): 160 µg DFE/day. Choline: 500 mg/day (AI). Vitamin E: 8 mg. Vitamin K: 120 µg/day (AI).

Did i miss any micronutrients that a person needs that isnt included in this, or just any problems with this diet, calculated for daily required intake

This year I started my running journey from zero and reduced my lifting, from February I was running 3 days a week and lifting 3 days a week until I completed a half marathon at the end of June in under 2 hours 10.

Since the end of June and with my new found fitness I ended up getting back into football, so I currently run 2 days per week, play football 2 days per week and lifting 3 days per week.

It’s also worth saying that in January my weight peaked at around 88kg maybe at around 30% bodyfat, and since then I have reduced my weight to around 72kg and I probably sit around 16-18% bodyfat, eating around 2000kcal per day for fat loss. For context I’m 30, 176cm tall male.

I’m currently at a bit of a cross roads and not sure what to do. On one hand I want to continue the fat loss and aim to get to ~12%, but on the other hand I feel as though I’ve been in a deficit for so long that I need a break. My strength has reduced in the gym and all of my running this year has been in a deficit, so definitely feel my performance could improve.

I have another half marathon booked for next April, so want to avoid another training block whilst losing fat if possible!

What would others who’ve gone through similar fat loss recommend?
- carry on the cut
- take a period at maintenance
- reduce my deficit

Any help appreciated!

A year ago, while scrolling on YouTube, I encountered a YouTube channel made by a guy who was really strict about diet and following an animal based diet.

Since that, I got really influenced by him, his mindset, and his strictness about every food that goes in his mouth.

I am not following his diet now but I am strict about diet. I entirely do not eat junk food. I search about my meals glycemic index and even insulin index and I make sure I can be as healthy as possible.

However, I still have mild acne popping up weekly. (It is not severe).

Do you guys think I should start caring about other aspects than diet to cure my acne and am I doing anything wrong with my diet?

I (19F) find that I feel my best when I weigh 125 pounds. I am currently 5'8" at around 128-131 lbs (depending on the day/time of day), but recently have been gaining weight and I'm not sure why. I am a relatively healthy person, I eat one full meal a day, and do a lot of light/moderate exercise. My meal tends to be a salad or protein rice bowl, but I am limited since I'm in college and live on campus. I also am on a celiac diet. Most of the time, I consume around 800-1100 calories a day (this is my one meal, snacks, and any drinks like coffee). I've also recently started trying fasting, but I did a 72 hour water only fast and was incredibly dizzy and lightheaded for the entirety of it. I'm attempting a second one currently, but I'm only a few hours in so far. I'm not entirely sure what else I should do. Any other methods I should take to lose weight?
