I haven't weighed myself in over 2 months!
And I'm still alive! I've really decided to break up with my scale, and I've never been happier. Since my main goal is just to fit into my clothes well- and I KNOW what fits the way it's supposed to and when I need to buckle down on my eating/workouts. Just wanted to share since I am not letting the scale rule my life…

Are your maintanance calories enough for you?
when I don't exercise I struggle since I find my calorie goal not enough. I am 5`3 and my goal is 120 so I am worried that my maintenance calories wont be enough and I will end up gaining some weight back. If that's the case then is it better to stay heavy so you get to eat more? I am currently at 135 but not satisfied…

Tracking exposes denial, that's for sure!
I posted previously that I am starting to struggle a bit with maintenance, due to lifestyle and hormonal changes and not being conscientious in my eating. I got lazy about tracking. So i tracked yesterday once again and yup, I see how I have been slipping into denial. No more! Back to tracking and conscious eating. Thanks…

Was maintaining now slowly gaining
I was maintaining my weight (130) for about a year after I hit my goal... I originally lost 20 lbs and went from 150 to 130. Then after maintaining for about a year - I pretty much stayed 130 sometimes 128-132 but mainly stuck at 130. Then after about a year it was starting to see that I was 132 more frequently and started…

maintenance and eating back workout calories
In maintenance, are you able to eat back some of the calories you burn, like say 200 out of 600, AND NOT gain back weight? I just want to be 100% that I understand how maintenance works! I'm 5'3" and I've been maintaining my weight of 118--120ish now for about 4 months. I maintain on about 1,350. By running mostly, but I…

My maintenance calories
Hi guys, I have looked at several online calculators to try and get an idea of my TDEE, however I am finding this difficult as one days that need around 1900-2000 and another days I would need 2500-2700. Another problem im getting with finding my maintenance is that my weight fluctuates so much, like 5-10 lb. a day. Most…

Binge eating
don't know how to explain this. It's so hard to put into words what the last 2 months have been like. It all started when we went to mamaws at the end of summer. I had never cheated on my diet, 1200 calories a day, walking almost every day. I had lost 25 lbs. I went to mamaws, figuring that It wouldn't be easy, but not…

How am I supposed to balance friends?
I've been helping out a friend plan her wedding a few nights week. It seems like whenever I'm with her we always end up eating heavier food that I'm not used to typically eating. I'd be more comfortable doing that if it wasn't happening so often (at least a few times a week). I hate eating light all day just so I can…

Any experience maintaining a BMI of 20
Started 5'6 141, currently 132, aiming for 125. This is small and probably a size 0/2 on me. I've heard that some women stop their period below a BMI of 20. Much as I hate my period, I figure this probably isn't healthy. I would be OK at 130 if 125 wasn't feasible. I have a medium build and currently aroung 21% body fat.…
