calories to lose weight
Morning, Ok I've been utilizing MFP for a month. I really love it and most of all I love the support everyone shows. My question is when I burn say 500 calories working out, in order to lose weight how many calories do I make up. It seems tio me we shouldn't eat as many as we burn if the weight is to come off.. Sorry I'm…

Hope this helps, I found it on: http://www.southbeachdiet.com/sbd/publicsite/dailydish/dd_20081011.aspx :flowerforyou: It's common to respond to stress by distracting yourself with your favorite comfort foods. But now that you're following the South Beach Diet lifestyle, you know that turning to common comfort foods…

STOP! Before you eat that...
As yourself, is it physical or emotional hunger??? Physical hunger * Builds gradually * Strikes below the neck (e.g., growling stomach) * Isn't accompanied by a sense of compulsion * Occurs several hours after a meal * Goes away when full * Leads to feeling of satisfaction after eating Emotional hunger * Develops suddenly…

Frustrated-OT
I know that these forums are to be used as weight loss tools and all that jazz, but y'all are the only "friends" I have (besides the hubby) and I need to vent and maybe get some suggestions. I have been job hunting for two years. My current job isn't terrible, I don't have dramatic people, I don't have crazy bosses....but…

How do you keep friends from being fattening?
I'm starting to dread the fact that every time I eat out with friends for a meal, I go over my daily calories - and usually quite a lot. I joked with them last time that they were fattening! When I eat at home, I do pretty good. What if, when I know I'm having dinner out with friends, I eat nothing else the rest of the…

Need advice.. (from the women! Men beware!)
Around the time of the month I crave everything, feel like I'm starving no matter what I eat, and HATE to even hear the word exercise much less do it. Honestly...I have NEVER stayed on a diet during this time and it always puts me back a week or two (which means I only really get one week worth of progress a month!) What's…

Scared
Does anybody else got scared as they approached their goal? I'm a lousy one who lets the scale dictate her mood for the day. Not only do I weight in daily and take seriously every pound up (as if I didn't know that eating something salty in the evening influences my water weight and that not everything the scale shows is…

I'm back!
I hate to admit it, but I certainly fell off the band wagon and reasoned myself away from this site... I'm not sure why and it doesn't make a whole lotta sense. It was almost as if I was afraid to keep going. I lost 5 lbs and didnt' think I could keep up with my "luck." I know it's not luck, but my brain works in crazy…
