Take a look what I chowed for the whole day. I may have 50g of cheese later but I don't think so because I am pretty full

This includes 2 Capuchinos :drool: I don't take sugar though

 

Chris what is the name of this program you using to track the kCal? Looks very user friendly

It is www.fatsecret.com - someone else posted it earlier in the thread so I won't take credit.

 

If you have a heart rate monitor that tracks Calories then I suggest you choose sedentary as your activity level and add the exersise manually, it will be much more accurate.

Foods you don't find in the online database you can add in your own database, I added Provita, Tuna and a whole load of other stuff. Lucky everything I eat comes out of a packet with all the info on.

Hey folks - I see someone requested I pop the sheet on here - If you have any questions on it just shout.

 

How it works –

 

• Enter actual and target weights with the time frame

• Select your activity level (excluding exercise) (it’s a drop down) which will impact on your base output, as you say your normal energy output for ‘doing nothing’.

• Fill in the input and exercise with the corresponding kCal and copy the balance to the 3rd sheet for the balance of that day.

 

The kCal target is based on a pound of body fat equating to 3500kCal, and its divided by 0.45 (pound to kg) so is actually nearly doubled to get to kCal per kg of body fat.

 

In other words to loose a pound you must have a 3500kCal deficit and to loose a kg you must have a (3500/0.45) 7777kCal deficit.

I must admit one thing.

 

1. I grossly under estimated the importance and value of a HRM when you train, as it does make sure that keep a much better eye on your heart, very important!!! You may just die!! and it tracks your actual calorie burn, far more accurate than my cycling computer and/or BB does
