Losing lbs but not inches?
I've lost about 19lbs since the middle of May. I'm happy about that but confused as to why I am not losing inches and nothing I wear feels any better fitting. I've searched the internet and almost all of the sites are about people losing inches not lbs. Anyone experience this?

hypoglycemia & dieting
i was diagnosed with hypoglycemia (without diabetes) about 7 years ago and have since been really leery about getting on any kind of diet. I remember when I was first diagnosed and my doctor sent me to a nutritionist that she said that I should stay away from the low/no carb diets. Does anyone else know what else I can do…

Exercise question??
Okay so I am kinda new at this and still trying to figure it out. I get 1220 cals a day and I exercise to so that adds extra points, but I havn't been eating my extra points. Should I be eating them or is it kinda like weight watchers where you can eat them if you want or if you don't you will end up losing more?

excercise 2 times a day?
Does anyone excercise 2x a day? Is there any harm in this as far as overtraining or something? I usually work out about 1hr and 10 min or so in the morning, then again in the afternoon for 30 min to an hour, depending on the day. I find this has helped me get rid of some inches, and enables me to be able to have a glass of…

Resisting Temptation
Ok, so I'm in college and working during the summer to earn money. I live in a beach town and so my job is at a snack bar that serves fresh squeezed lemonade, grapefruit-ade (like lemonade, but with grapefruits :love: ) and miniature, fresh, hot-to-order donuts (that run a good 70 cal a pop). Any tips on how to resist my…

Go figure...
So yesterday I had a real pig-out day. I ripped out weeds for two hours from the curb around our house, and after that I treated myself to a Sashimi Bento Box. I was shocked when I logged in the calories for that :noway: Today I stepped on the scale and I had lost a pound! I don't get it! Yes, I did extra exercise, but I…

My name is Mel, and here is my problem. I've been working out and eating healthy (I swear) since late December 2009 and although I have lost a moderate amount of inches around my body I cannot lose a single pound. I understand that weight isn't everything, but I'm not talking about being 130 lbs and being worried, I'm…

Going over the recommended fat intake amount?
I seem to be right on in the calorie dept, but it seems I keep going over my recommended fat intake for the day by 5-15 fat grams. I know if that happened now and then that it wouldn't be a big deal, but it seems to be happening pretty often which may explain stalling out at a 6lbs loss. I feel like a lot of my fat intake…

I know all the recent studies say birth control pills do not cause weight gain, but I swear I puffed up like a balloon while I was on it. I decided to stop taking the pill about a month ago and I think it…
