MFP vs Bodybugg??
I was doing weight watchers and guess I just got super bored with it because I just keep getting off track. This is my 5th time at least trying to get back into the swing of it and I can't seem to get it together so I thought maybe I should try something new. I convinced myself I was going to fork out the $250ish and get a…

Need some advise in losing again
Since January, I have lost 34 pounds, which is great, but I am stalled now. I am trying to stay on a 1200 calorie intake, but most days I can't even get to that number (yesterday I did but usually its around 700-800 calories). Things are moving very very slow right now and I need to kick it up and start losing again. I do…

Blues.
The past few days I have been really blue and frustrated. I feel like I am way in over my head and it has been making me want to eat. My kids have been such a handful lately. I know this is not weightloss related but how do you cope with stress? Especially stress caused from your kids. :frown:

Weight loss from lower body trouble!
Hiiiiii :flowerforyou: I have been trying to lose weight for about a month and a half now and have so far lost only seven pounds! However it's all coming off my upper body which didn't need to lose any! I have hugggeee tree trunk legs and a typical pear shape body! :( I have been running and cycling (cycling only recently)…

Ok, this is weird!!!
Good morning, everybody. Yesterday morning, I wieghed in at 226 & change--roughly 4 pounds heavier than I started out at. Last night, I go for a 5-mile run at a not so quick pace. I shower, eat a turkey-ham sandwich w/ 1 tsp of mayo, and a small palmfull of chips. I then nursed a tall glass of OJ, and also, water for the…

Sudafed and working out?
This time of the year I need to take my allergy pills with sudafed in them. I know for me when I take sudafed it elevates my heart rate. My question is how does that effect the accuracy of my HRM and the amount of calories burned? I know I don't have to work as hard to get my heart rate to a good cardio rate. Thanks in…

First Week Frustration
Hi everyone, so I JUST started with MFP last week Thursday and have been really good. I have stayed uner my calories and even adjusted them at one point to get less calories so I could aim for 2 pound a week lost instead of just 1.5. So I weigh myself every Thursday because that's when I started. I started my period last…

Depression
Hey, Does anyone know if weightloss is supposed to be related to depression? It seems like when I start to loose, my depression symptoms come on strong. It seems that if I'm losing weight I should be HAPPIER!!! THis happened last time (a few years ago when I went on LA Weightloss and I started a new job at the same time...…

BMR calories
Ok so I don't know if this is rediculous or not but... My BMR is 1473 calories. Do I get to add that to my diary? And if so, how? I added it to excercises, but it kinda feels like cheating! Does anybody else add that to their diary? Because 1200 calories a day is about impossible to do. So let's say I eat 1300 calories…

Too little calorie intake - effects?
I keep reading that not getting enough calories can cause your body to go in to starvation mode. Every time I write down what I eat for the day, I am under calories. If I didn't write things down, I'd be over, I'm sure! Also, I understand a little about the body storing fat in reserves and in certain places on our bodies…

When the weight is coming off but you still look the same
Hi, i joined the site on February 8th through the app on the Iphone. It's only recently that I have realised that behind the nifty little app there's actually a whole community on here. Now, I have a problem and wondered if anybody else had ever had the same. Since Feb 8th I have lost around 18 pounds. But i can't seem to…

going to visit the parents-need advice!
I am FINALLY starting to see my ticker move in the right direction. I stick to 1200 net cals a day. Next week I am going to visit my parents out of state and this means restaurants, snacking and probably no exercise. What can I do in advance to try to keep myself on track? I don't want to ruin all the good I've done. BUT,…

Tracking calories consumed after midnight?
Can anyone tell me where I should track calories if they are consumed after midnight? For instance, last night I had a battle with the cereal and the Trix Rabbit won at 12:30 a.m. Do I include the calories in the previous day or should they be included for today's calories? I promptly went to bed afterwards, cursing the…

Weighing...
Ok here is my issue. I have been weighing using my Wii, a digital bathroom scale, and occasionally a regular scale. They are ALL different. Not drastically but, I would like to know my exact weight. I DO like to use at least two different scales just to be sure, though. For example, the Wii currently says I weigh 184.9.…

Diabetes & Exercise
Hey all: First off, I apologize if this question has been asked before. I am Type 2 diabetic and measure my sugars once a day, as i have them pretty well under control. I measure first thing in the morning. Lately, I have been doing the EA Active 30 day challenge for the Wii and measuring my sugars afterwards. They are…

Weight fluctuation
I've noticed that at times I can fluctuate roughly 10 lbs but sometimes more. I'll weight myself 1 day and be 138 then two days later be 149. It freaks me out. I would LOVE to sustain 135, but at times I'm 150. How is that possible? It also makes losing weight really hard for me because I never know if I am or not. My…

HELP! 11 weeks to loose 22 lbs!
I have always wanted to be back down to my lowest weight in time for bikini season, which for me starts at the beginning of July! I am currently 187 lbs and need to get back down to 165! That gives me 11 weeks to loose 22 lbs! So far I have lost about 35 and I average about 1 lb a week. Any ideas on how to step it up?…

What do I do now?
Ok, so I have been at the same weight for about 2 months now about 5 pounds shy of what I set for my goal. I feel like my body is just not going to give me the last 5 pounds. I did recently have my body fat tested and it was at 20% which I was told was good. I feel good, I know I am more toned but I am unsure what to do…

Annoyed!
Ok I have been dieting since the first week in February and as of 3 weeks ago I was down 13lbs. This was even after Spring break where I TOTALLY blew my diet. Now, I usually don't completely enforce my 1200 calories goal on weekends, I barely even keep track of it. BUT while I'm probably not staying around 1200 calories…

Eating exercise calories?
I've been doing a lot of research on here this morning and I've read a lot of posts that say I should be eating my exercise calories. Up until now I haven't been doing this, I eat approximately 1200 calories per day and exercise about 400 or 500. I've been losing 1/2 pound per day for the last week, until today when I…
