I'm having pregnancy scare and I have probably a week before It would show up on a test. so I'm just asking this question in advance, probably a bit premature, but is this site and fitness plan ok to use while pregnant?

Medifast
Anyone else doing Medifast? I lost weight more rapidly on the Medifast program than anything else. Then I partied for the past 2 years and gained it all back. My fault--not theirs. I'm back on it again. I'm doing only chocolate shakes, plus my 1 a day "lean and green." Would love to chat with others on Medifast. Thanks.

Is this ok...?

I've been eating all my calories (1600 a day) plus most of what I earn from exercising...so I've assumed I would just be losing 2 lbs a week, but every time I get on the scale (every other day) I see a 2 or 3 lb loss. could this just be…

1 lb. = 3500 calories. :)
A pound of body fat equates to approximately 3500 calories. So if you have a calorie deficit of 500 calories (meaning that you burn 500 calories more than you eat each day) you would lose approximately one pound per week: 500 x 7 = 3,500 It's easy to see that a calorie deficit of 1000 calories would mean that you'd lose…

Adding Exercise
When adding exercise to journal it ask "How Long". Are they asking for how many minutes, hours, or what? Can someone please clear this up? If I worked out for 1 hour would I put 60 for 60 minutes or would I enter 1 for 1 hour? Thanks Charlaine

A man staggered into a hospital with a concussion, multiple bruises, two black eyes and a five iron wrapped around his throat. Naturally, the Doctor asked him, 'What happened to you?'
