Im not a real happy camper tonight as I read some info
about "eating your exercise calories"? I would love to hear from the folks on here that are actually losing 2 lbs a week or more, whether or not they eat "every" exercise calorie that shows up in the food diary? I have been doing that because the info I got here on this site told me to do that. Now I realize it is my fault…

Exercise Calories Question
When I input my exercise the site adds calories to my daily target. Should I be eating those extra calories or keep some of them in my deficit to lose more weight? I do not work out until the evening (5:30pm), so by the time I log my exercise, it's dinner time and I don't want to eat all my extra calories in the evening. I…

bodybugg
Well just when I said I was back, I got a bodybugg for Christmas. I finally got it up and working today so it looks like I'll be logging my foods and exercise on that program instead. I still love MFP but very excited about using my new bodybugg. I still plan on checking in though. Anybody else used the bugg??

Pudge or Paranoia?
Er...I'm 5'4" and weigh 143. I eat between 1250-1350 calories a day, without exercise. Since coming home for the holidays, I've been very careful about what I eat and (except for Christmas day) haven't gone over my calories. However, I'm probably consuming more sodium, and I haven't been working out nearly as much. The…

Pulserate/calorie monitor watch

Went on my gravity walker for 20 minutes, it said I'd burned so many calories, the watch reckoned I'd burned a 100 or so more !!!!

When did people start noticing?
Since October, I've gone from 175lb to 160lb, so a loss of about a stone, which I'm thrilled about. Unfortunately, I can't really see a difference when I look at myself, and nobody else has mentioned anything either (nobody knows I'm losing weight), which is a little discouraging. So how much weightloss does it take before…

Dangerous siren call of my old eating habits
So I decided I would eat what I want for Christmas and just try to keep my portion sizes down. The problem was I had a lot of little portions. When I got back home I found it hard to not eat constantly and count everything again. I guess actually It was more that I found it easy to eat out of boredom/emotion and not count…
