Slim fast... because who has the time to slim slowly?
People who live in the UK might get the reference in the title ;) It's from a slimfast ad and always makes me laugh. Anyway, I saw this patient today who has lost 20kg in a year and her Dr is telling her this is 'failing' at weight loss. Sure, she's got some more to lose but she has no pressing health problems and surely…

Set Point Theory - Perhaps Why You Are Not Losing.
We were talking about this in my advanced strength and conditioning class last night and it reminded me of a lot of people on here who are frustrated that they have been doing everything they think is supposedly right and no changes are showing up on the scale. The Set Point for everyone is usually hard to budge but it has…

What?? Well no Wonder!
So I have a Nordic Track Elliptical. I love it. I have used it to take off my initial weight. I have been stuck though for about 3 months now. I see people put in their calories on an elliptical that are much lower than mine all the time. I knew mine probably overestimated my burn but since I managed to lose 40 pounds and…

The Scale is not my freind ....HELP

The answer was ….I don’t weigh myself every week…..I have the body type that gains muscle really fast so the scale doesn’t change or I gain weight and I get discouraged. I now..I now..muscle weighs more than fat.. My husband has asked me…

question about water weight gain?
Hi -- I have been working really hard since January and have lost 10 pounds (or had) before this past weekend. 10 pounds doesn't seem like a lot at all, especially for four months, but it's been hard-fought. So, here's the dilemma. My bf and I went tent camping/hiking this past weekend. I didn't log my food, but I didn't…

Feeling guilty if I don't work out!
So today it's pretty cold and rainy so I can't take the kids for a walk. I just did my Jillian Michaels 30 day shred and I only burned 100 calories. I feel SOOOOOOOOOO guily though because I'm used to burning 400-600 calories on my walk. I would do the dvd 2 or 3 more times but with 2 little kids, I'm lucky to get in one…

Weigh-In Day?
How bad is it of me to change my weigh-in day? I've been weighing-ing on Wednesdays but I'm starting to think that weighing-in on Fridays might be a better idea for me as weekends are really tough and I feel like by Wednesday I am just getting over the weekend hump and don't see too many results....which results with (like…

WHAT COULD BE MORE IMPORTANT THAN TAKING CARE OF YOUR BODY?
The only thing that I can think of is taking care of your soul and your spirit. Or should I say finding someone who can take care of your soul and spirit... if you know what I mean? Diet and exercise must be a priority for us all... If we can't help ourselves, How can we help others... MFP ers... I salute you! If you are…

Simming new water cure?
Okay, so my friend gave me her Woman's World magazine because it had an article stating that you could lose up to 10.5lbs in a week with the new water cure. Of course it interested me, so I read it. The basis of the article is that you should drink 16oz of water before each major meal (breakfast, lunch, and dinner). They…

Weight Loss Confusion
Sorry if this is a stupid question but... If my daily target is 1200 and I eat that and do NO exercise I will lose, according to MFP 1.3lbs a week. If I do a hell of a lot of exercise (which i am doing) and eat ALL or most of my exercise calories then I will lose....1.3lbs a week! I am keen to get fit and have gotten to…

Pot Luck Calories
We are having a pot luck for lunch at work today. Most of my co-workers eat healthy and the choices when we do these are usually pretty good. However, it is still really hard for me to count calories when I have no idea how things were prepared or what all they contain I would hate to have to give everyone the third degree…

The more I lose, the harder it's getting to shift the pounds
Having lost over 2 stone, and with my goal 10 stone (140 pounds) I have about 6 pounds to go to achieve my ideal weight. The weight seemed to drop off *fairly* easily at the beginning, but I feel I have been around the 146-148 pounds mark for a good few weeks now. I exercise for an hour, about 4/5 times a week and so have…

My mind is still a 3X...
I dont usually post these types of topics but I just needed to vent. I went clothes shopping today and had a blast. I have gone from a 22/24 (3x) to a 14/16 (1x) in shirts and I have gone from a 22 pant to an 18 pant and went down a whole cup size. I went from a 44DDD to a 40 DD! It sounds like a small victory right? I…

Kind of a stupid question...
I'm not sure what the answer is, so I gotta ask. If you jog, run, and do squats do you gain any muscle? :blushing:
