To be in a calorie deficit will one day of cheating ruin my weekly goal?
Basically I have decided to track my calories daily because I am new to calorie counting and don’t want to do the maths or having to add calories back on throughout the week. If my calories go slightly over one day will this affect my weight loss goal?

Certain parts of my body shake/tremble at certain positions. Why?
For some background, I'm a 23 year old female. Since I was about 9 I used the internet as an escape from the stresses I was facing in person/life.

How can I make calorie counting less painful?
I'm not a fan of calorie counting. I've never been a numbers person, and in addition, my black-and-white thinking causes me to go to some extremes when it comes to counting calories. At the same time, while I did lose a few pounds eating mostly real foods, I'm aware that I may not get very far with this since my diet isn't…

Just wondering if there are any craft beer lovers out there. Craft beer tasting has become a hobby and a calorie buster for me. I have recently chosen a low carb diet, partly because I know that I love craft beers and they are high in carbs, but also because the rest of the week, low carb feels better. I feel more full…
