They say it'll be easy...Why am I not losing the water weight?
People say losing water weight is easy. It'll go away in a little time. It hasn't been that way for me at all. I've reduced my sodium from 3,000MG perday to 1,850Mg perday. My carbs I increase from 145g perday to 190g perday. Why am I not losing the water. I sure did cut a lot of sodium. I've been cutting for now the…

Playing "chicken" with the scale! Dared it to move, and it did
I entered maintenance mode back in the spring of this year. I have been managing to keep the 53 lbs off, weighing just below 120 lbs. Over the summer with vacations and increased exercise with biking outside and such, I've had times when I've gone nuts with calories and still maintained or even lost more. The last couple…

Sickness and Weight
Is it just me or does everyone burn lots of extra calories when sick? I'm on my 3rd bout* of COVID (3/2020, 8/2021, 7/2022) and every time I've lost a bunch of weight even though I'm eating at or above maintenance. Ugh, I see my doctor for my yearly checkup in August and she was adamant last year that I needed to maintain…

Advice for body recomposition? Ladies?
Hi there! I've done a crap load of research since I decided to get fit and healthy, and have finally figured out what my end goal is. Lose fat and gain muscle/look like a sexy beast! I'm a petite gal with a small frame at 5'3-ish and 118 lb. Definitely not overweight, but I'm far from happy with how my body looks. For…

Maintaining weight after surgery
Ok. I love food. Like a lot! I just got a tonsillectomy and I'm 25. I started out weighing 222 lbs and of course am on liquid the last 4 days. In four days I now weigh 216.4 lbs. How do I maintain a healthy diet when I miss food so much? I still have a week left until I can eat normal again. Just want to set goals.

Suggestions for some more mental staying power?
5'2", I went from 150 to 125-130 when I was about 23, then down to 113 when I was 25, then for the rest of my life (except when pregnant) I've hovered between 125-135. I'm now 60ish, so that sounds like a win, and by-and-large, it is. (113 was way too low; 118 is the lowest I should ever be, and be healthy, IMO.) I've been…

Same Weight, Different Composition
After losing 10 lb since April, I am almost ready to re join the maintenance club. I have had to revise my fitness plan since late 2020 due to pain, so my composition is a bit different at this # than I am accustomed to.

Just started maintenance and TOO FULL
So I'm on week 1 of aiming for between 1600-1700 cals and every day so far I go to sleep feeling full. Today I tried extra hard to meet my protein goal (I'm trying for 40/30/30) and I am just full to the brim. Food baby full. Did I jump the cals too quickly (was at 1450-1550 before)? or could it be having more than 100g of…

Is it normal to plan for weight gains while trying to maintain current body weight?
I recently hit my long term goal of losing 100lbs. It took me almost two years to lose the weight and well over 10 years to figure out a lifestyle that works for me. Throughout my weight loss journey, I realized there are moments in life where counting calories are just not possible or extremely difficult to do accurately.…
