Finally giving in to exercise!
I have been trying to lose weight over the last few weeks and have lost 4lbs so far. I started at 135lbs so don't have much to lose. I hate exercise and barely do any!

Weight fluctuation
Hey all, just a quick question about weight fluctuation. For some reason my weight is all over the place. It is always constant in the morning, but after breakfast and for the rest of the day it could be as much as 7 pounds more than it was that morning! It seems a little extreme to me. It's also depressing because I…

Ideas when starting out
I'm not starting out..I guess I'm continuing and carrying on from where I left off over a year ago. Something I have found interesting. If you want pizza, make your own. You can measure everything. You know what's in it. You can add healthier toppings and it's much cheaper...even tastes better. I made my first tropical…

Measurements
I would really like to start taking measurements and monitoring those weekly as well. However, and I KNOW this sounds silly but...I don't think I know the correct way to take measurements. Previous attemps have led me to question whether the current measurement was taken at the same exact place as the last, etc. Can anyone…

Losing everywhere but...
I'm down 11 pounds so far and I can see a difference in my lower belly, my thighs, my waist...but it seems like the part of my belly right above my waist isn't losing at all--in fact, it feels jigglier than before. Are there any types of exercises or something I can do to firm this up or try to lose some inches here?

How to add back calories once I hit goal weight.
I am within 5 lbs of my goal weight ( yeah me!) and am starting to think about maintainence. Once I am at my goal weight, should ease up to my new calorie intake? Or, can I wake up one day and add back the 500 calorie deficit? What do you think? Julia

Kinda weird...
So when I was searching for a good calorie counting app, I came across this one & "Daily Burn". I got both, but figured they'd be pretty much the same, but was surprised to find out I have 2 totally different "daily calorie intake" goals from the 2 apps. Daily Burn says I can have between 1738-1988 cals, & this app says I…
