General frustration
I don't understand. I try my best to go for brisk walks between working at a desk all day. I watch what I eat. I count calories. I lose two pounds...and then this morning find out I gained them back. It's disheartening because just yesterday morning I had weighed in and had noticed I was down two pounds. This…

"How can this be possible?...10 pound gain?
Just two days ago the scale said 220.......this morning it was back up to 230. I have been eating my 1200 calories and some less.

Does anybody do this?
When I go over my calories by ALOT, I tend to say to myself, "well you might as well eat a few more cookies, since you already went over your calories today" HAHA!:laugh: I know I can't be the only one who does that. But anyways, I feel like I am sucking at this. Eating healthy is a lot harder than I thought it was. I know…

Worried about accuracy
Hello. I have used myfitnesspal before and then stopped. I looked into a couple of other website like it and they all gave me different counts for average calories a day. This site allows me the lowest amount. They also log in certain exercises differently. I am just worried about making sure that I use the most accurate…

Diets dont work???
How many people agree with that slogan? "Diets dont work?" I am one of them, I stay on a diet for about a week and than slack off, or they just simply do not work!!! I believe "lifestyle changes" do though, I have learned that in order for MY BODY to be healthy I have to eat right and exercise for the rest of my life!…

He kept hinting about it all day. No telling…
