MYST 125 Three Common Questions

Let’s talk about “starvation mode” (it’s a bad term, very inaccurate and thrown around like it is the answer to all problems), “free foods” (low calorie foods that don’t need to be counted in your calorie budget) and “weigh weekly or monthly, but not daily”.

MYST 88: What Is Your BMR?

Everyone talks about BMR. But really, what is it? And why do I need to worry about it?

Just like many numbers in your life (social security number, phone number, blood pressure) your BMR is a vital measurement. In this case, it measures how many calories you would burn in 24 hours, even if you were comatose, in a hospital.

Why does that matter? If you ignore it, you will develop problems.

Eat the right foods, but also eat the right amount!
