MIL problem - anyone with thoughts? Advice?
Hi MFP - looking for a little advice here (or at least a chance to vent!), I met my goals a few months ago, lost 20 lbs, and now wear a size 6, sometimes an 8. Today, I open a gift from my MIL, and it is a sweater, sized large. About 6 weeks ago she asked what size I wear at this store, and I told her "small". WTH??? To…

increased my calories
Just wonder if anyone has changed their settings? I have really been having a hard time. I have 10 pounds to loose. I've lost between 3-5 (depending on the day) and I've been at this since June. I just got a trainer because I can't get anything to change. And I'm really not good at lifting weights. Anyway, she told me that…

Help with HRM
I got a Sportline S12 HRM for Christmas. It didn't come with much more instructions than on how to set it up. So I was wondering how I calculate my calories burned (it said I was in my target zone during my workout). It has calories burned for a built in pedometer. I had the ped turned on during my wii workout, since I do…

Losing inches not pounds but no exercise - What's going on??
For the past few months (since the beginning of October) I've been dieting. Mostly due to lack of time and somewhat due to medical stuff I haven't been exercising much at all. The little exercise I get is walking up the stair at work, and it's just four flights. I've improved since Oct. in that I can now make it to the top…

Holiday Baking
Is it just me or does baking make you feel like you have already eaten a whole cake. This morning I started my baking. My husband and father in law wanted butterscotch brownies and my mom wanted a rum cake. I swear after baking them I feel stuffed I did not taste either one. I don't even want to eat them now, and now my…

Chocolate???!!!
At night I always crave chocolate, and I usually have some to quiet down my craving (but then again, who really stops craving chocolate?). Its what I think is just a normal serving (i.e hand-full of m&m's, a cookie, a couple hersey's kisses). I know that I should stay away from junk at night, especially because i tend to…

Tonalin Review
Recently, I've heard of a new CLA supplement (an enzyme we should normally be getting with our daily diet, but in fact do not get enough of) called Tonalin, which basically regulates the fat mass/lean muscle mass ratio in your body, among other incredible things, such as decrease in cholesterol and increase in metabolic…

Those hidden calories cause weight gain
As a person posts in their Daily Food Diary here, they will probably find what I found: Sugar, Bread Products, and Fat/Chocolate filled products have the most calories. I WAS WAY OVER MY CALORIES - FOR MANY YEARS (no matter what "diet" I was on). Most people (including me) have no idea how easy calories add up - unless…
