Fitbit vs. Garmin in terms of longevity
I tried looking this up in the message board archives, but couldn't really find anything. I think I already know the answer, but want to hear from fellow MFP'er's before I buy yet another fitness tracker. My Versa Lite kicked the bucket after only 19 months of use, and actually Fitbit had to replace my original one within…

Hunger pangs!!
I eat healthy most days of the week and workout 5 times a week(5 days morning walk and sometimes a 40 minute weight training session in the evening 2-3 times a week.) I eat enough. ALOT actually!!

Water weight vs fat weight
I was looking in the mirror analysing my body as usual and noticed that the skin on my stomach and hips was sooooo jiggly. How can I tell if it’s water weight vs fat weight? Is there even a difference cause I’ve always wondered this! Has anyone else experienced this too?

Halloween Candy
If you have leftover Halloween candy, get it out of the house. Give or throw it away. Better it be in a dump than as fat on your body.

About alternating arm days / leg days...
Hi all, I follow various YouTube workout videos Monday through Friday. These are each 30 min full-body workouts with dumbbells- I use 12 lbs.

How often do you weigh?
How often do you think you should weigh yourself? I weigh usually in the morning and before I have eaten anything every second day or so. The thing that sucks is that the weight fluctuates and sometimes it has gone up for no apparent reason.

I am 52 years old and I am taking on a large weight loss journey. The first 3 months were pretty easy. I lost 50 pounds over that time, with most of it coming the first two months.

Suggestions for low cal flavorings to add to small serving of pasta? I sometimes like to have a side of penne or farfelle sometimes but don't want to add in things that add many calories. Does the pump spray like Parkay add much flavor?

The safe calorie deficit is 500 calories, yet MyFitnessPal is telling me it isn't and that I need a calorie deficit of 300lbs. I am a 29-year-old male who uses a wheelchair for all of my mobility. I have no way to take my weight, there are no nearby hospitals where I can weigh myself with a wheelchair-accessible scale, and…

Personal trainer, yay or nay?
I'm thinking about joining my local gym but I am a total newbie. I have spoken with a PT who works in a gym close to my home and we had a great chat about my goals and how she can help me, and I think it's really worth a go. I've been a yo yo dieter for years but I'm finally finding my groove with CICO and I've already…

calorie difference among apps?
Hi! I'm new to the app and I have a question. This app says I need to eat 1490 calories but a different app I downloaded said I needed 1700. Another app said 2485Kcal which I don't think that's true. Also some people that I told about my journey said that 1490 seems too low but I'm not sure because I did lose 6 pounds in…

Weight Lifting Routine/Program (2-3 days per week)
So, a little background. I'm 30, female, and looking to get back into a basic weight lifting routine after taking some time off for personal reasons.

Rapid Water Weight Loss Well Into Dieting
I recently had an almost 2 week long plateau where I was exercising basically every day. (I was around 94 lbs lost at this point or 221 lbs) Then, I think I either injured my arm or a nerve got pinched (it's been bothering me for weeks now so I have no idea what's wrong) and I had to quit exercising to be safe. Over the…

Diet and exercise but no weight loss?
I have been now sticking to the diet lower in calories – below 2,000 and exercising every day. I had been seeing results until recently, when I stopped seeing any progress. My weight is still the same for the third week. I thought it might be due to the muscle weight gain? I am not sure, and don’t know what to make of it.…
