For those who do weigh watchers? advice please.
For those of you who use the program... How do you do it? Do you use the online one and pay for it? Do you go to meetings? Or do you manually record things? I'm interested in the program but would like some advice. THANKS!

too FEW calories???
My weight has been the same for the past maybe 3-4 weeks and it's driving me crazy because my wedding is in one month (besides gaining and loosing the same 1-2 pounds-probably water weight). Anyway right now my weight is about a pound heavier from my lowest on here (once again hoping it's from too much sodium, I went out…

Finally Understand the Cheat Day Idea
Yesterday, I worked all day - I only work full days once every other Saturday. I have a desk job, so it's not taxing. However, I felt terrible all day - lightheaded, extremely hungry, and nauseaus from the hunger, even though I was eating really good stuff. I had oatmeal, fruit, yogurt, pork loin, veggies, yogurt, more…

Irritating plateau!
Hi! Having trouble getting past a plateau I've been stuck at for 4 weeks now. This week I finally got really fed up, and upped my time at the gym to 6 days out of 7, instead of 3 days. 45 minute workouts each plus 30 minute walk to and from gym. Also been careful with what I've been eating. Still no progress! Feeling very…

Going in Reverse
I joined 2 weeks ago - i've been consistently excited because I've never tracked what I've eaten like this. I'm seeing how to budget for foods I want and really working hard at staying w/in my range. In the last 2 weeks, I've only had 4 days over my net calorie goal - which I thought was pretty good. I've given up pop,…

today is a new day!
Today I am starting on my new health kick! Even though I have little to no time to work out, I can still eat healthy. I used to work out 5-6 sometimes 7 days a week and I loved it. I was eating super healthy, and feeling great. Then I started college, and here I am.... I have gained back the weight I lost, and am flabbier…

I am back
I'd been having a rough couple of weeks, I either tried to stay on course but failed, or like this last week, just gave up altogether. Stopped logging food, stopped working out, gained back about 5 pounds in the last few weeks and ate out almost every day last week because I lacked any motivation to cook or go to the…

Fallen off the Bandwagon...
Weeks ago when I discovered this site... I was addicted. I met some awesome people who I learned a lot of great things from but recently I have been being bad. College has trapped me. I want to go out, drink and make memories with my friends but this is making this whole weight loss thing difficult. Hangovers lead to me…

Diet - Back on!
Well, I gave up dieting only a week or so ago, thinking it just didn't matter if I lost those extra ten pounds. After a week of eating normally (and indulging in some of my favorites), I've decided to come back on. I just FEEL better when I eat better. If I lose those 10 pounds in the process of eating healthily, then yay…

To weigh or not to weigh??
I'm new to MFP, off to a pretty good start... i bought a digital scale and weighed myself on friday. I'm using that as my starting weight, and my goal is to lose 8 to 10 pounds in 5 weeks.

negativity
I don't understand how people can be so negative about change. Especially family! Am I the only one with this problem. Two different family get togethers this weekend. My husbands family is so negative, asking both my husband and I if we think we had lost enough weight, why don't you want any ice cream and cake. Why can't…

really quick weight loss
I started on MFP on Thursday (April 15) I have already lost 3 pounds and most days I have been reaching my calorie goal. Is it bad to lose that much weight so quickly? I've never lost weight so fast before and I'm enjoying it, but I don't know if it's good or not.

Quick question- can anyone help? :)
Throughout the day though I always level off at 2lbs heavier than my morning weight. I understand you weigh the lightest in the morning but 2lbs?! Is that a normal weight gain in a span of a few hours, when I'm only consuming light things (ex boiled egg, yogurt, cereal, banana). Thanks guys!

Need a new scale - any suggestions???
I've decided not to trust my scale. (too many 5 lb. days) Have read good things about Weight Watchers WW43/WW43D Memory Glass Electronic Scale, but thought I'd put the question out here before purchasing. This scale retails at about $50, with plenty of bells and whistles for tracking, bmi, etc. There aren't many that come…

Eating healthy in a sorority house
Right now I'm living in my sorority house, which I love. But I don't love that I cannot cook my own food, or even have a say in what is prepared every day. For every meal we have a salad bar, but that gets real boring real fast. Our chef is amazing but he has a fixation on white pasta, cream sauces, bread and butter-and he…
