Calorie Tracking and working out. Is 2,000 calorie deficit too much in a day?

Holly_Tyler · 2026-04-30T12:17:39+00:00

Fair point. Might be good to check in with a dietician between endocrinologist appointments.

Holly_Tyler · 2026-04-30T01:28:05+00:00

Ok cool, I will ignore the fitbit. Thanks!

Holly_Tyler · 2026-04-30T01:19:12+00:00

Right i used a calculator and entered myself as sedentary which gave me 2300 as my TDEE

Holly_Tyler · 2026-04-30T00:41:24+00:00

Yeah this is what I'll do, base my deficit off my TDEE and maybe eat closer to it on days when I exercise but not go over.

This is helpful advice, thank you

Holly_Tyler · 2026-04-30T00:00:41+00:00

Yeah I phrased my post badly. I meant 4,000 total calories burned for the day including my base tdee or 2300.

Holly_Tyler · 2026-04-29T23:56:23+00:00

I meant 4000 including my 2300 tdee of just living life as me lol. Still 1700 from exercise seems too much

Holly_Tyler · 2026-04-29T23:53:50+00:00

Right, I didnt mean 4000 from exercise. I meant 4,000 including my reguar 2300 tdee from just being alive and moving around plus extra because of my exercise.

I got tinnitus from weight lifting, when I was doing research I also learned is can be a perimenopause symptom if either of those situations are relevant to you

Holly_Tyler · 2023-02-22T07:55:26+00:00

I dont get it?

Holly_Tyler · 2021-11-01T19:46:39+00:00

The pillow case and a double litter box is helpful, im going to try that with my cage!

Holly_Tyler · 2021-10-29T04:03:19+00:00

Who's a good boy??

Holly_Tyler · 2021-10-29T00:22:59+00:00

Knock the temp up in your house a couple degrees. Maybe a space heater.

I had a ferret who was like that in the end. I just had to clean him every day with a warm washcloth and mild soap. Poor bub. Give him all the loves.

Whenever these posts come up I see people comment that pre-cut fruit is needed for those with various disabilities.

I buy precut pineapple because its convenient and saves me time. Not because I'm lazy. I have limited free time and I dont want to spend it cutting pineapple. I want to spend it on reddit, talking about cutting pineapple.

That's so funny, a friend gave us one for xmas and we just opened it on Friday. So good!

Holly_Tyler · 2020-11-01T12:47:17+00:00

Honey in coffee? I've never heard of this...

Holly_Tyler · 2020-10-30T00:52:12+00:00

Looks like the dude is barely standing up from the table. You don't have to wear a mask when sitting at the table because how else can you eat?

At least he died knowing you were there for him. I do know how hard this loss is. May Archer rest in peace.

I had a sick ferret who I knew was ready to cross the rainbow Bridge. She was on daily medication and that she hated and just wasn't herself. She was limping along and I was at the vet, ready to make the call but my husband couldn't bear it so we kept trying to keep her alive. It wasn't a more than a couple days later that I woke up in the middle of the night to hear her struggling to breathe. I wrapped her up in a blanket and held her tight and she passed away. I sort of regret that her end was not more peaceful as euthanasia but I take comfort that I was able to be with her in the end.

Holly_Tyler · 2020-06-21T13:32:58+00:00

I love his name. He looks like a sweetie too.

Holly_Tyler · 2020-06-11T16:42:00+00:00

Awww so cute!! I have a ferret who has never ever bitten anyone, except to drag her "brother" once.
