I'm a believer...  

Yep! When it says 30 minutes do weights... is that just when lifting or include the short breaks between sets? I always log 20-30 minutes as that’s the entire time from when I start until I step off the last machine. I take 20-30 second breaks between sets and one minute between machines. If I’m going toward my max then and only then will I take a 60 second break between sets. Sleep is the big issue for me. It’s hard to get to sleep and even harder to wake up if I haven’t had 9 hours lol. But it’s easy when on a 4 hour nightly sleep and a 2 hour nap routine like I usually have all winter. (But I also gained most of my weight during winter) 

Does the protein intake have to be that high for a non-bodybuilder? I do light/moderate resistance training for 40 minutes every other day.  

Protein intake should be for your goal weight. 

protein is a very necessary item in your diet. It is being found now that recommended protein levels may be on the low side especially for older folks like me.  

Ah, ok I get it now, thanks.  

That's a lot of protein. I'm doing good if I get .4 grams of protein per target weight. Also, what am I supposed to do with the product of 10xcurrent weight. Can't be how many calories I should be eating, because it would be pretty darn high. 

I did the “my Wgt x 10” formula and it is about 890 calories more than I usually eat to lose weight... 

Jimipop does a .9 times your target weight, which for me is a little low. 1040 calories I think. so maybe it means 10 times your target weight. It is about right for weight loss for me. my burn without exercise at sedentary is around 1430 I have been upping my calories to try and match that. I work out a lot, so that burns my fat loss. 

I wanted to be 125 so 10 x 125 is 1250 which works for a slow weight loss. I have no weight goal now, just want to lose the fat and build muscle. 

BWX10 is very low. If you are even slightly active you will lose at a good pace. I'm losing at BW times 18 give or take. 

Oh, ok, the calories is supposed to use target weight as well. That sounds about right. I'm a little under that, but not by much. Still the protein is way more than I'd be able to consume and not over eat or go broke trying. 

Yeah, @peeper, I'm at the gym for 1.5 hours or so and I log about 45 min on my exercise field. I think the picture takes into account rest times as well. 

protein is very easy to get, even a small amount of meat is 20 grams. I regularly eat 75 to 85 grams daily. if you are watching calories then salmon is a great choice especially fresh or frozen.  

👌🏼 

Lzeen try goal weight *10 = but I don’t know ur goal weight so I’m just saying...what is it n maybe we can say “yay or nay” 

890 calories a day is simply not enough calories for anyone 😣 

I never use 10 

I started with goal weight time 12 and than current weight times 11 

I never ate or eat less than 1500 calories a day. I lifted weights at the gym (while losing my weight) 3 days a week. But yes I guess I did things wrong (😆🤣 excuse me while I laugh) cause I slowly lost my weight and I was totally ok with it 💕☺️
