For the last couple of days I've felt down and out! I've been drinking water non-stop, eating "right" (even though some days I've gone over my calories it's been "healthy" food and not chips, candy etc) I've tried to exercise but last night I could only do 15 mins and I was completely wiped out! I've been getting a good…

"extra" calories at the end of the day
hey all, I'm pretty new to the site and have a question. since I started (3 days ago) I have ended up with "extra" calories to eat at the end of the day.

stomach shrinking?
Today is my 8th day at my new life. I use to constantly eat all the time. But after the 4th day at this, I found myself not hungry near as much. I didn't even eat my snacks today.

Net Calorie Reports?
Can anyone help me in understanding how to interpret the "net calorie" report? I'm assuming the net calories means the calories I have consumed after calories burned during exercise. For example, if I ate 1500 calories and burned 500 during exercise that would mean a net of 1000?

Vitamins/Supplements Question
Just wondering what kinds of vitamins or supplements people take. The doctor told me a year ago when I started with my new weight loss lifestyle, that I need: multi-vitamin and calcium.

Water is Water is Water...
I know that only water is water, but I have an extreme dislike for plain water so I am trying to find an acceptable alternative. I have gone from drinking only soda (and I mean ONLY soda, and regular soda at that) to drinking iced tea, water with the Lipton Green Tea mixins or water with the South Beach Tide Me Over mixin.…
