Diario de Ryno Potgieter, 10 ene. 18

Carbs can cause you to retain water. A few factors can also influence weight on a scale such as time of day that you weigh yourself, time between weighing yourself, etc. 

at the exact same situation 

Up water and cut wheat products from your diet. Also look at processed meats/soy/alcohol as they cause water retention. I find weighing myself in the afternoon after work the best time, as I swell up during the night and am puffy and retaining in the mornings.  

Too much sugar for one day. 1 try and limit my fruits to 2 a day otherwise I most certainly do end up gaining weight. 

Ek het my calories per dag verminder. En ek dink ek moet meer proteïne eet en minder brood.  

You are not alone, my water intake was high and my carb & sugar intake low. under RDI with no results. Would also suggest keeping the fruits limited because of the natural sugars. I read that berries are a better go to fruit as they contain less fructose /glucose than other fruits. 

Wat is jou calories target per dag?  

2800. In die tyd wat ek verloor het, was ek so 2000 tot 1700, laaste week of so het ek opgegaan na 2200 - 2500 toe. So die target wat Fat Secret opsit, is dalk verkeerd...  

2210 503 1987 1774 1527 2305 2614 3136 2364 2131 2470 2583 1791 2457 2302 1857 2057 LOST WEIGHT PICKED UP  

Hi Ryno, i had a look at your food - you have to aim of only 2 portions of fruit each day, and a med apple is = to 1 potion. fruit have a lot of fructose and that is sugar. aim to have your carbs under 50 g. it can also be that you have more body water and try to have lean protein 3 times a day with veg. 

First few days I lost, then picked up. for accuracy, i probably need to get all the foods down. But i was targeting 2500, but it seems like under 2300 I loose, over or about there, I don't...  

Im new with this diet thing. I weight 126.5kg and want to go down to 100. my RDI is 2700 a day. for the first two days a average 1800cal a day....is that to little or will it be okay. 

Hi Ryno what plan are you on? I notice your fat intake and carbs are high. You should wither have high carb with protein or low carb with high fats. Having the two together increases weight. Are you doing any training? 

Lower the recommended RDI  

Hi Wilfredvan DER Merwe - you can drop to 1500 but not lower, but keep your fat to around 20g per day and your carbs to around 50g per day and your protein to 126g or more per day. 

Audrey - i think you nailed it. i am only counting calories at the moment. I hadn't made the time to evaluate my foods - thank you VERY much. I am supposed to be on High Carb, but not following - just discovered this App and trying to restrict Calories. Will focus on the diet of a dietician. 

daedt - think thats a bit too low for a male. Intake is calculated by weight so if your training I would suggest carb cycling for you. It wil be less torture and slims down waiste line but keeping you lean and great results. For men it works as follows: Hig carb day: 1,7 x weight in pounds for carbs and Protein, fat 0,6x weight in pounds Low carb day: 1.5 x weight in pounds for protein, 0.8 x weight for fat and 0.9 x weight for carbs No carb day, there is no such thing because greens will give carbs but this day you eat clean as possible no fat and no carb, shouldnt go over 80g of carbs for the day. protein portion is 1.5 x weight and veggies you add 150g to what total is for protein for the day. Mostly green veggies and low carb veggies. so example: Mon - intense training - high carb Tue - low intense - Low carb Wed - no training - no carb Thur - Intense train - high carb Fri - no training - no carb Sat - intense train - high carb Sun - low intense - low carb so high carb days on hecic workout days, no carbs for days ou dont train. cant have more than 3 high carb days and cant have high carb days back to back. If your not training high carb day will become on moderate measurements and low carb day will become low to no carb. Breakfast will always be a carb  

Dont know if that makes sense. I have an document that explains easier but dont know how to attach it. But i promise this gives amazing results.  

Ok, bit of my history. I went to a dietitian, because i had a minor heart episode in 2009. So I am VERY wary of the high Fat diet of some slim oake. I would LOVE to go banting, but with my LDL cholesterol higher than my HDL cholesterol - that's a no go. I have the diet, but just not following it. I need to get the papers everywhere, and start following it to the letter. But... it's just easier to use Fat Secret and check my kCal intake. Discipline ... 

Then its best to follow what they gave you, at least your starting somewhere. I had an episode too but due to carbs, wheat and gluten. Its not easy to work around at first but it becomes habit. Fats is then not the option for you. probably have to keep it to an minimal.Paleos diet is also high fat. the dietitian knows best according to your health records. Slender wonder diet is great, it cuts out a lot at first but reintroduces foods to your diet and bigger portions as well.
